Feeling generally pretty good about my life trajectory these days.

Work stuff seems to be getting more realized and stable.

Finding more of a work/life balance in general.

Working on building up my meatspace relationships more.

The springtime breeze is helping. (If only the snow would melt soon too!)

@cwebber@octodon.social Maybe the real subby repls are the friends we made along the way. 🥰

Catch me using the `Blob` API along with the `ReadableStream` API accross all my projects. 🥰

Really happy that I can start using primitives that aren't scoped to just Node.js.

@enduser@berserker.town Thine prompt makes one think one should begin imminently. 🤩

@aeva Hear me out. Smart pocket watch on a chain which you keep in your front pocket.

@am@decept.org Honestly, I just feel like we're missing out on having only formal "you/your" as an option.

It could be used for endearment but also a new way to throw shade on cheeky folks.

Finally, a tech development is targeting the managerial class instead of the workers for replacement. thehustle.co/should-we-automat

How insufferable would it be for me to use thou/thine pronouns for people instead of you/your?

Finally, I will look into taking a small screenshot or something with the contents so that it may be displayed while the initial load is happening.
And what's more, I can block the initial load until you actively focus the window for the first time.

That way we can save on CPU and you can still navigate to whatever "tab" you had opened previously and it'll still have the right title/url/location displayed in the window in your desktop window manager

First thing I'll do to improve this is to have the URL that was used to "last load the page" saved as a var, and to use that to save to the crash/shutdown file.

This property will only get updated upon a successful load.

Now when I load without internet, I can avoid losing URLs.

Next would be to save the title and pre-supply it to the window title before the data even loads for easier navigation in the window manager.

So I generally have like a dozen windows open at a time and this means that on initial load all the loading traffic is noisy and causes me to take way too much CPU time when I load.

One other thing, if I lose network connectivity when I do the initial load, the "onload" will not fire and I will lose the URL in the logic which saves the URLs upon browser close (and periodically for crash recovery)

This is absolutely informed by my desire to bring up information sources from as many places as I can without having extra UI "cruft" and the fact that I have a "ultrawide" monitor which is my daily use.

So, Agregore is super weird from other browsers in that it doesn't use tabs and relies exclusively on your OS's window manager for managing them.

A side effect of this is that having a bunch of tabs open feels like more physical clutter and means that you'll likely close them more or might arrange them spatially on your desktop.

Alright. I'm going to do a bit of coding for fun and maybe improve load times in Agregore further.

Thread?

Are there really no universal IR remotes that are also Bluetooth keyboards (even partial ones)? Am I going to have to do everything myself?

@unmellow For what it's worth they've been working really hard to figure it out a d have been asking everyone they could for help.

The initial mobile stuff barely got going thanks to the work in Manyverse and Mapeo, but this mew round just hasn't had any existing examples to go off kf

@unmellow Seems a lot less risky and straightforward than my AR experience 🤣

I think if Keet had been publishing their source code Telios would have been a thing months ago. But as it stands compiling all the new hyper stuff on mobile is an extremely difficult challenge.

@unmellow Tho also I have similar felings about this "ar viewer" I bought which seemed cool but then none of their apps worked for me. And I think that was more like 600 dollars which I feel kinda foolish about, Being an early adopter can suck sometimes

@unmellow were you expecting a crazy high return on investment? I find a lot of stuff that's callled "Crypto incentivized incentives" could have just been fiat payments to buy a thing or a subscription.

basically we're not doing one or the other, we're kind of mishmashing them together. when you post on most fedi projects, you are publishing to your profile locally, *but* you are also sending out an activity to notify your followers. and typically, that has side-effects on remote servers. usually that side-effect is "keep a locally cached archive of that post and show it to followers."

i think we should be clearer about the separate use-cases and concerns.
