Totally agree with you there @prologic! Interestingly enough since the introduction of masks, and increased use of sanitiser, I don't think I've even caught even the slightest of colds these past 2 years.
Hoping that the HTML is limited otherwise it could lead to some really bizarre, and potentially bad, issues in the future!…
XSS in 2021
Edit: Just tested a few samples, seems to be a-ok for now. 👍
Yep already aware haha. Although @prologic I did notice this… I don’t think it has anything to do with the css updates…
Following and followers need some attention along with the poderator screens for responsive views. That’s on my to-do list of things to look at this week. 👍
As for the URL in a yarn, it breaks correctly. At least it does on my end.
Happy to be your guinea pig / QA tester! 😂👍
I probably won’t get a chance tomorrow for this so I’ll do this now!
I wish everybody a happy Christmas! and if you don’t celebrate Christmas, I hope you enjoy your day tomorrow wherever you are! Peace, love, joy. 🙂
Somebody is proud of himself… after washing the floors…
Thought I'd give my instance a new logo! :D
Feels so good to finally have all my docker’d instances up-to-date and clear’d out all the unneccesary stuff that’s just been lying around.
Saved 12GB in the process! Phew! 🥱
@lyse oh my, that looks like absolute bliss.
@prologic Ooh nice! I’m currently obsessed with Hope Brewery at the moment with their sours and neipas haha.
@fastidious Wow that sure is a thing that’s happened. I can’t see the url breaking though? I will have to test it with a super long url…
I don’t mind the JS that @prologic mentioned, or perhaps have a bit of ol’ golang code to convert mentions of ^(http|https)://*.
to automagically convert to “Link” or something like that. Leaving the original twtxt alone.
Just thinking out loud here haha
Oh damn! Hopefully all your equipment survived (got a UPS right?! 😂).
Having no air-con is a killer, especially today. It was a disgusting day and it’s a hot night!
Fingers crossed Energex can re-route the substation power somehow… 🤞
Woohoo! Thank you @markwylde! It seems I was overthinking it quite a bit based in the PR 🤣
@thecanine I downloaded puffin browser on my iPhone and it didn’t even load twtxt properly!?
I’m not sure how I would even go tackling this issue… Perhaps I can fiddle with overflow elements 🤔
Also having webpage rendering done on a third party server and then delivered back to you seems like an odd choice. I’m curious to know why you chose Puffin as your web browser?
@prologic that GIF is me fighting with CSS yesterday. I love that GIF, definitely saving that one haha!
They do say bigger is better right?…
@prologic other than the size is looks really good! 👌
Hi @thecanine could you tell me which browser that is? I’m curious as all changes were tested on Firefox (v95 desktop/mobile), Safari (desktop/mobile), and Chrome (v96 desktop/mobile).
I’m also curious to know if it’s the system font too. Again, this is a weird occurrence but should be an easy fix once it’s pinpointed! 👍
@prologic wouldn’t that be a great day. Not that any politician is better than another 😂
Ugh good gravy… all this news coming out and yet nothing will happen to Amazon. Then most if not all people will forget about what happened and everybody will move on.
Having that green circle there thought “oh hey they have an online indicator”… 🤔
@slashdot Absolutely fucking ridiculous. But then again what do people expect from a private company...
_I also made the mistake of reading the comments on the /. page..._
I doubt I would even be able to see the ball let alone hit it 😂
Are you able to update the docker image? It’s still on db07211. 👍
It was nice while it lasted…
@xuu this is where projects like Gemini should become more popular. There are going to be quite a lot of nay sayers about introducing yet another protocol. But this project intrigues me so much.
I wonder if there is a way to create a gemini proxy for yarn/twtxt. Could call it “gaan” as in “How’s it gaan mate?” 😂
Ugh, so lucky!
I still have 4 hours to go!
@prologic I guesssss. I would have to sit down and do a side by side comparison just to wrap my head around it.
However I don’t think I’ll be forgetting my VB3-6 days, that helps with my works VBA code automation in Excel. So, maybe, perhaps, I _could_ learn golang. 😂
I heard Python is a great language… 😇
I’m not sure if I can learn another language. I’d love to learn golang, but I’m too far in with Python.
@fastidious Can I have a flat-white and make it 'twenty' (venti) makes no sense. We have a local Zaraffas, coffee shop, which use; Tall, Grande, Masai, Jumbo.
@prologic Yeah! They have a big light display in the centre of town.
I primarily went for the food trucks… 😂👍
@prologic That’s one of the new buildings in the center of town. They have LED strips on all the windows edges. On special events/occasions they display a simple light show.
@ionores watch out for the one, _it’s a dooooozzy!_
Only one more day left of excel vba… only one day left… one day… 😂
I have a feeling I know what is happening. Sounds like the same issue with extra data attributes on the follow element. Just like what happened when we switched to icon only buttons for the responsive view. Should be an easy fix🤞
@prologic Sure thing. Probably won’t have a chance today however! Big day, and night, ahead… 😬
@prologic We could do a horizontal ellipsis on the top right. Only reason why I placed it where it is is that it kinda keeps it in uniform with the other options.😉
@fastidious oh that’s just something minor that will be fixed later. I know about that one.
@fastidious I’d prefer not to make modifications to pico.css. Muted-text is way too dark imho.
@darch well this is more of a drop-up 😂
@homer how about off-white? Didn’t want it too dark so it doesn’t seem like there is a gap between the user and the time.
@fastidious how do you mean? I’m using mobile right now and reply, fork, edit etc work fine?
@prologic there probably is, I could go back to span elements instead of lists and do a nth-child check… 🤔
@prologic Feel free to checkout #599 it's up-to-date with that screenshot. I had a crack at the JS myself but just ended up nowhere haha!
So close... just need a way to seperate the menus from each other (I'm not strong in JS, will need a hand with that) and need a way to adjust the margin-top position based on number of items in the list... Which I think may also be JS??
Oh yeah! Totally forgot about that haha
Ended up moving the bookmark feature just to the right of the twt-hash.
Avatar / author block changes. @prologic @fastidious @darch @thecanine thoughts? Currently live on my instance.
I’m thinking perhaps moving the bookmark ability down next to the reply/fork buttons.
@fox Looks great! Use a more pastel blue, similar to the colour on yarn instances, for the background and a nice off-white text colour. :D
@prologic I can see the tag, but the tag does not link to anything?
@fastidious not sure about the period at the end of the nick thing. But I’ll take a look at the spinner on post. I’ve never noticed that before 😂
@prologic That red makes it very clear that it’s not going to be a cool summer 😬
Today is a happy Monday. Why? Because it’s my last week of work for the year! 🎉
@darch So should the user be taken to the pod instance if they decide to click/tap the text?
@thecanine this is one big tangled web of discussion. But a quick summary:
✅ Squircle avatars
✅ Separated pod names on 2nd line (without @ symbol)
✅ Rem based avatar sizing
✅ Changing of “me” to user names
I’m sure I’ve missed some 😂
@fastidious ah you beat me to it haha. So what is the deciding factor? Do we have @prologic bang the gavel on a decision or? 😅
@darch I see your point there! The handle already splits up if it’s too long for mobile/responsive views though.
‘tis a tricky one to sort out!
Okay okay okay, it's changed hahaha!
Moving furniture on a Sunday afternoon (new carpet) because that’s a normal Sunday thing to do! 😄
How about keep the same size text for the username, and then same size for pod name and datetime lines? That will fit nicely together on three lines with the 55, or 60, avatar size! 👍
Such a beautiful day outside.
Wow! That’s a super cool looking library!
@fastidious the “me” option should be hidden as of a couple of commits ago (at least on mine?)
Yes, I am totally up for having the instance name on the second line with ellipsis wrapping.
What about moving the posted time?
@darch that works well for most of the elements but the avatar is an image.
@fastidious I would highly consider using icon defined dimensions instead of an arbitrary number.
16, 24, 32, 48, 60, 64 etc.
@fastidious The reasoning behind the avatar being the size it is was because if the user breaks on the pod name on the next line it still looks fine.
Excel can be so frustrating at times. A document with quite a bit of automated vba has been working for some time.
Except for one user whose excel decides that “yes, I have macros enabled” _BUT_ “but these macros? Oh no…”
So yeah apparently only this user out of _n_ users has enabled macros but it just won’t work…
I’m fresh out of ideas at this point. I asked them to use another persons computer. 😂
It’s Friday. I’m done.
@fastidious ah righto! I’ll check it out once I get a break from todays events. I thinking placing the vertical resize rule needs to be either a separate class attached to the textarea element or perhaps force the rule?
We’ll figure it out 👍
@fastidious I did that yesterday at 7pm my time. I rm -rf’d my local copy and pulled a new one. I do that each time so I’m current.
So I’m not sure what happened there.
Funny you should mention that, I looked through my followers and noticed this one...
sp (http://0.0.0.0:8000/user/sp/twtxt.txt)
Funny you should mention that, I looked through my followers and noticed this one... is there a way to force a user to unfollow you?
sp (http://0.0.0.0:8000/user/sp/twtxt.txt)
That is an odd one! Perhaps it's something only somebody on OpenNIC can access?
The only thing that’s overkill is their electricity bill!
@fastidious wowee! That is amazing! I wish I had the patience to do that hahaha!
@thecanine There is quite a lot to fine tune. UX is a really hard space to get right for everyones taste. I’m always up for any ideas! Right now I’m trying to figure out the best way to present the formatting bar! 🙂
Unfortunately people don’t care until it’s too late. It’s the same people who have the “I have nothing to hide” mentality.
I always feel like I should throw everything in and just go work on my folks farm…
It never occurred to me that you can’t use æøå and the like for emails? Or was this a limitation back in the ye olde days?
I honestly have no clue where mine came from… It’s pronounced you-laah-rah though!
Had something to do with my folks farm back in the 90s. Searching for my nick reveals quite a bit over the past 10 years haha!
@lyse Magpie! 🙂 Looks like a young’n too.
There is always QB64 if you’re feeling nostalgic!
@thecanine Among the many things I do at work, creating VBA for Excel documents is the most frustrating thing ever… but when it works it’s both a miracle and makes me seem like a master wizard to my manager 😂
