"My name is Ibtihal, and for the past 3.5 years, I’ve been a software engineer on Microsoft’s AI Platform org. I spoke up today because after learning that my org was powering the genocide of my people in Palestine, I saw no other moral choice. This is especially true when I’ve witnessed how Microsoft has tried to quell and suppress any dissent from my coworkers who tried to raise this issue."

@xuu everyday is an April Fools day that comes true in the US, for the next four years. 😩
Please stop calling these silly things AI
Plz i need to know if it was still April fools day someplace when the Tariffs were announced.

@lyse to be clear, I do appreciate criticism, of both my art and and my other projects. Since you pointed it out, I have already fixed all the errors (missing semicolons, overused and incorrectly placed "p" tags, bad CSS workarounds) - all that remains, is last five font tags (maybe even less, by the time you are reading this). 🫡

As someone who likes to experiment with slight text color adjustments, I was somewhat of a font tag fan and did not realise, they were actually deprecated - I thought not using them, is still just some suggestion/new best practice.

Hey kids, stay away from computer jobs.
@arne I'm very glad I only rarely have to deal with .docx & Co. And when I have to, 99% is in read mode only. Even though, I don't think that Markdown is the best choice, I use it on a daily basis. Some things, like links, in reStructuredText are better in my opinion.

Jira just resists to switch to Markdown and forces us to use its silly markup language.

For real typesetting, LaTeX is the way to go. But I very, very rarely do that.
Hirschhorn also offers a nice old town. The castle with all its many buildings up the mountain is very beautiful. This is my absolutely favorite one, it just looks soo great:

Bloody cool building in the Hirschhorn castle

Walking back down the narrow stairs with all the crooked, well-worn steps of different heights and lengths was quite challenging.

@movq Awwwwww! <3 Thank you, that is now in my collection. :-) The other ones aren't bad either, very nice!
@thecanine My apologies, mate! :-( As @david pointed out, this was definitely not my intent at all.

For the easter egg hunt, I first looked for a hidden image map link on the pixel dog in the right lower corner itself. Maybe one giant pixel just links to somewhere else, I figured. But I couldn't find any and then quickly moved on. Hence, I naturally viewed the HTML source. Because where else would be a good hiding place for easter eggs, right?

Next, I noticed the <font> tags. I thought I had read quite some time ago that they are not an HTML5 thing, but wasn't entirely sure about it. So, I asked the W3C HTML validator. Sure enough. I thought I let you know about the violations. If somebody had found a mistake on my site, I'd love to hear about it, so I could fix it. I'm sorry that my chosen form of report didn't resonate with you all that well. I reckoned you'll also find it a bit funny, but I was clearly very wrong on that.

I actually followed the dog cow link to the video, so I ended up on the easter egg. However, I didn't recognize it as such. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Oh well.

Regarding my message about the browser quirks: I read your answer that you were arguing against the HTML validator findings. Of course, everybody can do with their sites whatever they likes.

@david.. i see this one but it says its dead. https://watcher.sour.is/?uri=https://ferengi.one/twtxt.txt
it adds users by finding them in feeds mentioning or following. Your URL is already added.

Hmm i am not sure how you got the URL with users at the end..
yep, it looks nice! How could add my URL?
Is it following the same endpoints than https://registry.twtxt.org/swagger-ui/#/users/addUser ?

BTW, I think that the usage section has a wrong base URL or something.

For example if you enter here: https://watcher.sour.is/conv/4rx5iyq
It says to look for this URL: https://watcher.sour.is/conv/4rx5iyq/api/plain/users

Which seems to return the content from https://watcher.sour.is

@thecanine for what is worth, I don't think @lyse intention was to insinuate your website sucked (though it may well do, but again, not his intent, I am sure). I see it more like a technical jest, and a good one at it. It was fun! Isn't that the intent of April Fools', after all?

Since it's now past April 1st, I can finally post the secret hidden caninine, for those who did not find it, during the over half a month, it's been hidden on my websites.

The link for additional context is: https://thecanine.ueuo.com/dogcow.html - you just have to click the image on there.

@eapl.me awesome, and thank you! Sorry I missed all that in the noise. I truly am a TL;DR fan! 😂
@lyse I do agree "the rules of the web", are far too loose - at least the syntax ones. I do think backwards compatibility is necessary.

As for my website, it might be visually very similar, to how it looked since its creation, many years ago, but it is frequently improved. Features that originally used JavaScript, changed to HTML and CSS components, code simplified, optimised to withstand browser updates and new screen resolutions,... Even a good chunk of the errors on your list, were already addressed and I plan to address the rest soon.

Just find it a bit depressing, that my attempt to bring back some of the old Internet spirit, by making a hidden easteregg page page for this years April 1st, was met with people complaining about April fools day jokes and you insinuating my website sucks.
@movq Sorry for being completely offtopic, but that's a really cute bird! :-)

In Mexico you couldn't register the word Sonora (state), nor Taqueria (kind of restaurant) as there are two common words, but perhaps the combination of both is trademarkable, I'm not sure, so many 'taquerias' here don't file a trademark request. It's usually "Taquería [LAST_NAME]" or "Taquería [PLACE]".

At the same time, the word "taqueria" was trademarked in UK, like it would be "Paris" or "Pub" I guess, so basically Sonora Taqueria didn't reply to the cease and desist, based on:

> [Lizbeth García]: A brand may not use a word that is generic or descriptive of the products or services it is putting into circulation on the market.

> Since he (Ismael, Taqueria's representative) didn’t get any response, he decided to leave it in the hands of his law firm.

> In early 2023, after all the noise on the internet and the mobilization caused by this case, an agreement was finally reached with Taquería to settle the matter peaceably.

> In March 2023, Michelle and Sam decided to register the Sonora Taquería brand and logo with the UK Intellectual Property Office.
A hike to the highest mountain in the Odenwald, the Katzenbuckel, lit. cat hillock. It was very windy and the sun very rarely showed its face, so it was quite chilly. Nice scenery, nevertheless. Surprisingly, this ski-jumping hill is still in operation. I've never expected this in a hundred years, judging by its state. https://lyse.isobeef.org/katzenbuckel-2025-03-29/

@arne ;-)
I am confused (maybe I missed what they said, or didn't read well). What was "Sonora Taqueria" answer to the cease and desist demand letter[1]? Did the accusers simply dropped their suit efford, or was "Sonora Taqueria" able to make their case (see [1])?

well, there is a whole book about piracy, DRM and selling stuff on the internet.

So I won't add much to the topic, what I can say is that this is about being pragmatic. There is some people who's gonna spend their money on books but it requires publicity (polemic topic) and subsidizing creativity with our own money (another controversial one).

Otherwise it's a difficult discipline /profession /industry

@prologic @eapl.me I want to highlight another social problem: People don't read. Paper industry is a bad moment because people don't pay for books; it does not matter if it is a physical or digital platform. I have this information because I have a good friend who left the industry after publishing a magazine, books and working in an editorial. DRM is a try to give some more money.
