Newsweek article: "Trump Ally Charlie Kirk Suggests Children Should Watch Public Executions"

*monkey's paw curls*

I hope this ushers in a new era of people correctly—whatever that means—using em dashes out of sheer unbridled spite. But—you know—the fun, good-natured type of spite.

Things are hard enough right now. Be kind to yourself. Log off, spend time in nature, and find your tribe. It will help, I promise.

Was gonna say "nonvoters don't matter: they're split 50/50" but I checked and I was wrong. Registered nonvoters do lean strongly Dem... how many are in swing states though? I can't find an answer. Also voter suppression is a thing. =/

Anyway, yeah, people should vote if they can.

To the people who are angry at Tesla owners because of Musk being a Nazi, I have really bad news about every other car company.

A person having too much fun with whatever access they have is all a hacker is. =)

You’re a bot.

About GitHub Pages and Jekyll - GitHub Docs Jekyll is a static site generator with built-in support for GitHub Pages.

Ah, sorta the other way around. Jekyll "has built-in support for Github Pages" docs.github.com/en/pages/set...

Oh, jekyll, I've heard of that. I think github.io uses that.

Here's the world's worst CMS in one line of code:

<!-- head, header, nav, etc. -->
<main id="main"></main><script>main.innerHTML = await (await fetch(`${location.hash.substr(1)}.html`)).text()</script>
<!-- footer -->

index.html#/example loads content from /example.html
SEO? What's that? ^^;

Ah, you make a good point here. I suppose what I would actually do is make it a SPA and inject the content based on the URL fragment rather than the other way around, but I'm a software engineer so I suppose that would seem easy to me. I've never used a static site generator. =)

This is a flex.

I guess it could occasionally be a useful feature, but a Premium perk? What?

Sincerely curious what you would suggest since you seem to think the JS solution is overcomplicated.

HTML imports are dead. <object> and <iframe> require fixed height. SSI/PHP/CGI is more complex. Static gen would need an extra tool... Isn't "copy this JS" the simplest option?

Of course you don't NEED to use JavaScript. You could do it with any number of server-side templating systems or with a static site generator. But personally I feel like this little JS snippet is the easiest option. You don't need to set up FastCGI or whatever.

Aw dang it, I knew I was forgetting something but I was too lazy to check it. Thanks for the code review! ^~

You can do it with a bit of JavaScript:

<footer id="footer"></footer>
<script>
fetch('/footer.html').then( r => {
document.getElementById("footer").innerHTML = r.text();
});
</script>

Then write whatever you want in your footer in /footer.html =)

The best thing about BlueSky is there are so few nazis here that I can raise my personal moderation standards.

Ruined a joke? Blocked! Annoying profile pic? Blocked! Name with too many numbers in it? Blocked!

Never heard of a three-way?

No like, the term “heat pump” refers to the device that moves heat from one place to another via a refrigerant. Whether it’s in a refrigerator or an A/C or a device marketed for heating, it’s still a heat pump.

Well, being struck by a banana moving at 0.5c would result in nuclear fusion, so I’m gonna go with “more calories.”

Not only the same concept, literally the exact same machine.

This makes me want to scream every time I see it.

Reading this makes me glad I live in the desert.🌵

I don’t work for them lol. I’m a customer. I’ve paid for AppleCare and found it to be worth it.

Also, I t’s not an extended warranty. It’s an insurance program.

My main point was that the program has changed a lot in the past two decades, which is literally just a fact.

1,460 days to go.

(2028 is a leap year)

Your experience is 20 years out of date. AppleCare works very differently these days and is a lot more valuable.

You should know that it has been basically impossible to get fire coverage in those areas for the last 10 years. This is not a case of people being unprepared, it is a case of coverage being unavailable at any price.

Mama told me
To let it go when
Someone stole my
Dear sweet roll
The winds will pass
The kings will fall
We should stay strong
'Cause life goes on
I never was an adventurer
A quiet Nord essentially
I'll just wait out this storm
I'll carry on

This song hits different today. Change always begins with imagination and proceeds via optimism. No matter how scary things get, those things will pass. Hope is available to all of us, always. ❤️
