That may be why videos tend to stall when in the movie is raining

Recently, I wrote a web renderer/framework using solid-js reactivity to understand how a reactive renderer works. The docs website been written with it and mainly to test the library. https://pota.quack.uy/ . Source code https://github.com/potaorg/pota

We built a website over a year ago https://ehmeh.com/ In there you can video chat with multiple people, similar to Omegle. The difference may be that the video chat is in ASCII and the connection is done in WebRTC, fun alternative.

Yep, that's right. The "mini player" on Windows has exactly the same problem. Its a big box of 200x100~ pixels or so and it doesnt include a volume control, you have to exit the mini player. I do not understand the reasoning of such decisions, really. It maybe looks cute but It's pretty useless.

No, because I could be playing a game with its own volume, while also being in a webrtc call with someone on another tab. Volume control for a music player is no-brainer.

It doesn't have a volume control, I really can't understand the point of these "minimal UIs" that don't have the very most basic needed _feature_.

My memory is vague. Anyone remember the related one about wife reporting some office app won't print on $day?

edit: here it is https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cupsys/+bug/255161...

I believe the implementation is buggy, because I almost never see a Cloudflare page and I can consistently see one here when double-clicking the button.

What about adding signals?

This particular case doesn't use JavaScript at all. It is just CSS cropping the full URL in a way that when you select and copy it, copies text that it is hidden.

edit to add an example:

    data:text/html,<div>123<b style="font-size:0">456</b>789</div>

When visiting the link, chrome just suggested I may mean to visit "reddit", never seen that before. I have safe browsing disabled, so I'm at a lost from where this comes from. https://i.imgur.com/l57osTi.png

Sorry, but this is not the way. It's like saying, "but I am escaping my inputs on sql with my function"... instead of doing the right thing.

The equivalent code is really not that hard:

    const span = document.createElement('span')
    span.setAttribute('class', 'fi fi'+msg.cc)
    span.setAttribute('title', msg.cc)

    col1.appendChild(span)
    col1.appendChild(document.createTextNode(msg.src))

    col2.textContent = msg.proto

    let code = document.createElement('code')

    code.textContent = msg.u
    col3.appendChild(code)

    code = code.cloneNode(true)
    code.textContent = msg.p
    col4.appendChild(code)

or something in these lines.. you get the idea

I'm left wondering if the feed data from planes is broadcasted to pilots on the ground to figure out possible problems. Like the actual instrumentation data, as the article says, there was an oversight from their part.

Reminds me of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unsinkable_Sam

I do not consider "online", when it's a PM. A private message, should be private. There are reasons to get rid of the whole thing sometimes.

on HN the convos aren't private.

For public servers I understand, for private messages obviously not.

edit: better wording

Sorry, buy you have the wrong idea. That would be fine for public servers, but not for Private Conversations. I'ts unacceptable.

edit:typo

Discord doesn't respect privacy, you cannot just get rid of a whole conversation. Users are the product, and they make it so difficult to delete entire convos that it's so obvious it's just valuable to them.

This is actually a very good idea. I'm gonna start implementing it on my sites. If you want your account verified, just email the site with anything or nothing at all. Thanks for the idea! Email verification is a nightmare.

What we need is somehow the ability to serve the html/js and json at the same time without having to wait for the client to get the html and then do the fetch request for that json. This will save a full round trip for loading content while keeping things simple.

Thanks for the info I will check it out!

Im amazed they dont have a Sublime Text plugin, but "whatever".

I do not understand the five-second minimum delay I got..... nginx and obs paired at a 1s key frame interval still gives a five-second delay on football matches, which is very annoying because you heard your neighbors before actually watching the footage, and no, this is not solved by any streaming service.

I have been thinking to automate "when an app enters fullscreen, disable all the non-primary screens". mostly for gaming. Thanks for the MultiMonitorTool hint as that will probably help in combination with AHK! I'm trying to avoid composite. On a somehow related note, I can't recommend MouseUnSnag enough for multimonitors setups https://github.com/MouseUnSnag/MouseUnSnag

I was thinking today if I can attach a switch on/off to my laptop battery to not wear it when I'm almost all the time on the desktop plugged in..

If you use multiple screens and your mouse gets stuck in the corners, I recommend https://github.com/MouseUnSnag/MouseUnSnag

Reminds me of this excellent video https://youtu.be/HLIJkmy3vy8 it's in Spanish, he tells the story of explaining a financial system crash to his daughter. Probably has subtitles in English, I recommend it

Really curious how rivers look like electricity burns made on wood
