@prologic Only thing I actively use is Google. It's been a year since my last Netflix subscription.
@ionores Happy New Year to you too! πΊ πΊ πΊ
@prologic This one may be more appropriate. Happy New Year π₯!
@prologic Happy New Year! π We already shared ones last night tho!
The state with some desperate people, If one desperate person can't solve a problem the answer is always "get more desperate people".
@prologic There's nothing inherently "bad" about that.
@prologic @antonio I don't think the point of marketing is selling things you don't really need, I believe the point of marketing is selling things. There are lots of things you don't really need that you still buy because of various reasons. You don't really need a video game, but it's fun so you buy it because of that reason.
@prologic @dooven Ah, I thought you yourself were settled on developing a single client (the web one) for the reasons mentioned here: https://twtxt.net/twt/mk3zkcq. I guess you would like to have somebody else rather than you develop a single client that you could develop and maintain. So again, what would happen with this client in that case?
@prologic I guess each client is responsible for keeping up with new features? The web client being the reference implementation?
@prologic Not that hard to solve, don't think it requires a new client IMO.
@prologic That's the idea, keep it like it is and distribute in the Play Store wrapped in a Chromium instance. I'm sure there's a way.
@adi That's how good it is IMO.
@adi Can't you just pack the current web frontend in a chromium on mobile too?
Ah! I just use the web client for both!
@prologic What kind of embarrassment? π Are you thinking of replacing the current client? I think the current one is pretty good tbh, why replace it? Why a PWA?
@prologic Her hello.com
works as advertised, same binary both on Linux and OpenBSD.
@adi Ok, pp
compiled with this doesn't work.
@xuu @prologic This is pretty cool, how were they parsed until now?
@sjkelleyjr It's not an submission, it's more of a take look at it, if you think it's cool publish it, if not don't. I guess you understand better what content fits YOUR newsletter. π
I would really like to continue watching The Blacklist but forgot where I left of.
Movies I saw these days that I found to be good: Papillon, Lord of War, Shazam!, Hacksaw Ridge.
@markwylde @prologic You know how I would solve that? Do a complete server side rendered app and, depending on User-Agent probably (if requested via JavaScript) serve partials on some endpoints.
I just remembered, I really enjoyed Altered Carbon! One of my favorite shows ever!
Just realized why the DC Legends season I'm watching doesn't click with me. It's magic and demons, not into that at this point.
@ionores We don't have Disney+ in Romania yet, I have set it up via VPN at some point, I'd rather not pay now. "The 100" is pretty cool, I forgot where I left of tho. I would really really like to continue watching "Silicon Valley", can't afford paying for all the platforms now. π How many are there Netflix, Hulu, Disney+, HBO? Any other?
@ionores Where are you watching The Mandalorian?
@prologic Its less superhero-ish and more funny. The main idea is that they form a crew of "failed" superheroes that do time traveling and "fix" or "break" history". Silly humor mostly.
@xuu File embedding looks pretty cool!
@xuu I have some ideas....
@xuu @prologic But if I get a new device, how can I read my old messages?
@prologic I'm tight on cash and would like to learn some Go, but don't have much experience with it. π
@prologic You wrote something 50 minutes ago, did you take a nap? π
@prologic I mean one that it's a single page and all rendering is done via JavaScript client side (doesn't refresh I guess).
I think the web is falling back to it's normal state of treating pages like documents instead of apps. I'm saying falling back because I believe the "web app" movement was forced.
@prologic Yup, using ed
makes very much sense for you! π
@prologic Might give a hand also, I'll let you know if I have any good name suggestions.
@prologic You're considering writing one if not? π
Was using https://github.com/nbedos/termtosvg to create a replacement for the terminal image on this theme https://hugo-whisper.netlify.app/. I thought it would be a good idea to generate a svg
close in size. Was stuck for a while on the geometry parameter of termtosvg
until I realized I could just count the columns and lines in the picture. π€
@antonio @prologic I suck at design, I can do CSS and HTML just can't get good a looking design.
@prologic @lyxal I'm in a small and simple phase. Used to do NodeJs and PHP before, don't remember using containers for deployment either we weren't or I wasn't in charge of the deployment.
@prologic @lyxal Not a big fan of deploying inside a container, I think it may hide unresolved portability issues and leads to less robust code? Prefer to deploy to "bare metal"?
@prologic @lyxal box
is pretty cool, although personally, I'm not a big fan of containers.
@prologic Ah, not yet, still have some work to do!
I don't think it's 5000 uniques!
@prologic Not bad! 1k growth in a month also!
@prologic There's a "Documentation Downloads Packages Ports Posts About" menu at the top and a 'GitHub Packages Ports RSS β§οΈ' menu at the bottom.
@prologic Do I let them there or remove them? Also "Posts"?
@prologic What about that "About" link on the ulinux.org website?
@prologic I forgot to ask, which shot hit the tree, 1st, 2nd or 3rd?
@markwylde I would like to see OpenBSD on RISC-V and also an open GPU and then my preferred hardware and software stack would be complete. Add Plan9 as a bonus.
@prologic Cool! I prefer keeping the look & feel but without Pure.css.
@prologic Can you show me the static files under 'Documentation', 'Downloads' etc...? I'd prefer to remove the https://purecss.io/ dependency, do they depend on it?
@prologic So you're fine with fetching stuff via wget(1)
?
@prologic Didn't want to host it in git yet, haha, hence the file, but I will, take a look at ./bin/mkws
and ./index.upphtml
, what do you think?
@prologic But then you moved to GitHub pages because you didn't want to sync the README. π I guess you could just fetch it when generating.
