For anyone curious, this is what I listen to to get through linux server deployments.

@sofia Yeah for sure. They have the monopoly on violence after all. 😅

TIL you can use the #JavaScript `fetch()` API with `data:` URIs!

This means if you're using `fetch()` to load a URL in an application, a person can supply a data URI and skip the network entirely.

In particular this can make specifying data in query strings in a URL handle both remote URLs and inline data without an extra code path. 🤯

Tee hee, time to write another streaming zip file parser in JavaScript to account for my specific use case. :P

Glad we have the DataView API now to make life easier.

It also just looks cool as hell:

It'd be nice if the web had a standard API for apps to register and configure keyboard shortcuts for #accessibility use cases.

E.g. right now Github has their own shortcuts, but if somebody wanted to hook them up to an alternative input interface for people with dexterity issues, Github would need to do it manually, or the user would need to stumble through it until they found a way to get at the shortcuts.

IMO every action on a page should be easy to navigate to with a reader or keyboard.

Once again bringing folks attention to https://unit.land which is a live visual #programming environment using #JavaScript under the hood.

One thing I find interesting is that it's a lot more mobile friendly than others. I'm thinking it'll be easier to use on my steam deck than on a phone or tablet with the joysticks / buttons.

The docs recently got updated so it's a bit more approachable: https://github.com/samuelmtimbo/unit/tree/main/src/docs/start

@ungoldman Oh neat TY. I love that it leans into using Fira Code. I have that set for my whole system UI and try to get any web apps Ibuse to enable it with the "font-family: system-ui" rule. :o

Practicing using #zsh after using plain old bash all my life. It's a bit of getting used to, but the main thing is I'm not looking forward to having to figure out how to customize my color scheme again. 😂

Instead of bridging everything to Matrix I should be turning all my chats into private RSS feeds. 😛

@sofia I feel like it even transcends the stat and is more like "Those who have or wish to have power over others" and in some ways the large centralized power itself wanting to stay in control of not just the people below but the people wielding it as well.

Power and cruelty are like a demon feeding on humanity's soul.

Low key wish I could use mastodon as my RSS reader. Apparently we all have RSS and Atom feeds? I should be able to just follow someone's non ActivityPub blog and comment on it with WebMentions. 😤

Honestly, I should be able to talk to my personal Mastodon account that way too.

Fucked up how capitalism incetivises governments to avoid giving people free food/shelter/medicine just so they can keep getting forced to destroy their bodies for jobs nobody would do otherwise.

One of the most successful aspects of it tbh! That's what people must mean when they say "It's the best system we have".
