📝 Typefaces for headings and body https://fruechtl.me/journal/typefaces-for-headings-and-body/

Kind of far-fetched, but hey: years ago I saw a web page which was plain HTML (ie. without CSS), and step by step it was turned into something beautiful and readable with a few CSS rules (adding margins, increasing font size, that kind of basic typography stuff). I seem to recall it was meant to teach both basic CSS and basic typography.

Does anyone have a link or remember anything about the title or the author, so I can find it? I just find random CSS tutorials.

Boosts welcome/encouraged!

Watch out, Chrome Safe Browsing was quite privacy aware so far, it just checked URL hashes. Now it's full blown real-time monitoring of what you actually browse... and link it to your Google account.

Not that it did anything else if you had your browsing history synced to cloud 😂

The main feature of this release is that the focus ring (i.e. the glowing outline around buttons and links) should be less prominent for mouse users. If you prefer to use the keyboard to navigate, then nothing should change. This follows a new web standard called "focus-visible."

If you prefer the old behavior, you can enable "Always show focus ring" in the settings.

Loading threads when clicking on statuses should also be faster.

Enjoy!

Musste mich gerade von #Amaroq verabschieden, für mich der (ehemals) beste Mastodon-Client für iOS. Aber das Projekt liegt seit Monaten brach und es werden keine Bugs mehr gefixt. Schade!
Hier möchte nicht zufällig jemand das Projekt unter seine Fittiche nehmen? https://github.com/ReticentJohn/Amaroq

Then there's the announcement of "bringing DX12 to #Linux", whereas in reality it's only for WSL2, not Linux in general and it's almost entirely closed-source.

Basically, it just proxies calls to DX12 from WSL2 to the underlying Windows host, it's not some grand port.

P.S. Let's pause for a second around why they call it "Windows Subsystem for Linux", as if it's something they were doing for Linux users, whereas in reality it's actually a Linux Subsystem for #Windows. Nice newspeak there

You can throw two seasoned and one kinda-seasoned admin at an almost trivial task and still manage to make rookie mistakes. And that's okay. Everyone missteps sometimes. Sometimes people even mess up really, really badly. Try to not beat yourself up about it.

We fixed the problem quickly, nobody was blamed and luckily at 4am hardly anyone cares anyway.

... aand I even managed to get some sleep after 4:30!

@puresick @nextcloud does that and it drives me insane. Often it would be so easy to find something with Ctrl+p, but it just opens their search bar :(

To build a decentralized giphy, we could create a feature to upload gifs on mastodon, and automatically be shared at an endpoint, an HTTP api to search images on each domain, which also federates with the currently working federation system.

This way, we don't need to have a hard system to sync databases across domains, because we already have them!
