ALL WHATWG MEMBERS SUFFER FROM attention deficit hypertext activity disorder SO SAYS THE ME!

7clrh

well well, more coffee, less spaces, and more shift on the seven

why almost every webpage spams the browser console full of some weird "Port opened ... Port closed" lines

This started just some weeks ago

i want to know why seamonkey's add-ons manager just did a search request on all my installed extensions

not an update request a search request

of course it failed cause thunderbird is sending json back

they must have at some point rewrote the API without bumping the endpoint version because amov4 api expects json

feels very 2014 and 2018 right now looking at this and I don't .. like it.

needs moar JSON

still doesn't answer WHY the add-ons manager issued an unsolicited search query.. UXP doesn't do that. and I didn'

t open the add-ons manager so it isn't discover pane telemetry

anyone ever read w3.org/2019/04/WHATWG-W3C-MOU.html

THIS is why we need a new protocol

the entire suite of web technology is transfered to whatwg

whatwg is just corperations..

not people

not users.. investors

there is no standards body for the web..

the fact whatwg pricably operates off github means MICROSOFT gets to decide who can participate in standards

of which I can't

now

people always go on about how ignorant i sound (outside of here) the point is i only learn what I need to because if I learn it all I will A) have an opinion on it and B) likely be pissed off about it.

and C try and change it.

learning == conflict

I thought WhatWG was "Google and some partners" :D

Google yeah but Google isn't in the best position going forward..

remember the DOJ shit

Microsoft has been pushing more and more on the whole AI and http/3 etc

google gets anything microsoft does for free

and microsoft can do it because google is now the fall guy

I told you months ago that Microsoft is making a lot of familar moves

in impl and in the ether

be glad Oracle doesn't contribute to the web standards, or we would be all slaves for Larry :D

I have a theory.. if Google goes down Mozilla will be flooded with employees .. as an ad company and the even still but just barely superior technology.. Mozilla is google powered direct google no longer exists.. Microsoft has a browser engine and web dominance.. and ibm has an operating system

welcome to the cyber-reset

to y2k

that's the real y2k bug.. tech companies repeating the same shit over and over again

US VS Russia Microsoft vs Internet.. what kind of twisted nostagia powers these forces?

I blame television

I always envisioned the new millennium as building on the BEST of the previous and we did.. for about 7-8 years

i wanted more.. LCARS and less Telescreen personally

Star Trek had flip phones, not glass fondleslabs

I miss my RAZRs :/

well starfleet devices at least understood touch shit needs a fuckin bezel around it

so you don't accidently click on any Ferengi ads

I always wondered what a sugar plum was tho i always knew they weren't plums

And now in os from yesterday news ms fixed the sandbox problem in 2008 R2 today: support.microsoft.com/help/5048695

why do they keep patching 2k8r2?

i mean other than it is the superior codebase despite lacking some later kernel tweaks

the supreme windows server.. uhh vista take 2 server.. HEY IT WORKS DON'T IT?! lol

premium assurance till 2026. Same for 2008 I think. So Windows 7 till 2026 too :)

Microsoft was so much better when they embraced "Hey it works, don't it?" design

boy i hate how everyone keeps bumpping deps past EL8's versions

and some stuff I can't just rpmbuild to update..

swear to god I am gonna figure out how to do a STATIC COMPILED linux from scratch .. so sick of dephell

or just admit defeat and go BSD

how is SeaMonkey on UNIX_BUT_NOT_MAC?

I think it builds. Can't test and won't but every time I find a reasonable patch I apply it.

i see

I think someone got it building on 14 too but not sure.

we now have a git log in searchfox central and as expected its crap compared to the hg one.

frg_Away: better off using shithub to traverse into the various dimentions

oh i see

it is JUST doing commit history on file

YEAH that doesn't always tell the full story especially since github does NOT follow renames and git its self isn't always great at figuring out a rename from a new file

frg_Away:

and not away

frg_Away is on two computers...

well i'd setup a znc for us all to use but then I'd have to like be all nice and respectful to libera staff to make it work properly and not be abanned and that is very taxing

basically the trick on github to traverse renames and into .. alt-but-from-hg-and-cvs-not-visable-history-streams is a process of traversing known files and swapping to a parent commit to find it again and repeating..

when the history splits tho even historing a now gone file won't show it existed but if you go back far enough you can get to where you can see it

.. I have had a decade head start on figuring out gecko-dev history from a git perspective after all :P

I will make sure that MY git viewer follows renames

1210|15:42:52 <+nsITobin> anyone ever read [...] <-- well, it says WHATWG, so... is it light reading or for a drinking game?

lol thank you for that njsg

2008R2 still having support should really, really be highlighted to, say, Google, who insist in saying "Windows 7" is not supported.

(Why do they even do that? How did Google manage to mangle that check? After all, NT 6.1 isn't just 7...)

njsg: that has only been true sometimes.. also different channels servers are often not supported by desktop software regardless of the nonsense.. just like windows clients can only have 2 physical cpus and 32bit windows has ram restrictions while 32bit server has working pae

and today the server and client are split again
