YouTube video by LegalEagle Worse Than Watergate: Thursday Night Massacre

apologies for getting political on the TL, but www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jehv... is really interesting

Potentially, yes, but realistically I don't see them doing so - IMO it's more likely that Apple protests against the bill and threatens to leave the UK, then the bill gets quietly dropped

The UK wants *global* access to people's data

I suppose it's a matter of preference? I slightly prefer the new design if anything :P

i mean i am an android user but apart from the frosted glass backgrounds everywhere it doesn't seem too bad lol

How to generate OpenGraph images with Astro and Satori Generating OpenGraph images for your Astro site is an easy way to increase click-through rates and make link previews more appealing. Here's how to set them up!

Just wrote a new blog post on how to generate OG images for @astro.build (like the one below)!

from my experience you need to aggressively weed out those posts with muted words and the "show less like this" button

well tbf CORS is meant to prevent this sort of thing

I would love support for running Coolify on systems where you can't get root access; I use a shared host for a lot of my stuff and I would love to run Coolify

The stars bit is definitely not very accurate (no way in hell I got 180 stars lol) but it's definitely a lot nicer than the githubunwrapped this year

I have PTSD from seeing this

yeah it was kinda disappointing in terms of features, but it did improve my battery life by quite a bit (pixel 6)

Woah, was just thinking of making a project with Zero, tyvm for this!

👀

also side note: mozilla add-ons is *way* nicer to publish to than chrome web store - approvals in under an hour, more freedom over your page, nicer UI, no fees...

Next-gen Web Extension Framework – WXT WXT provides the best developer experience, making it quick, easy, and fun to develop web extensions. With built-in utilities for building, zipping, and publishing your extension, it's easy to get sta...

For the tech stack, I used wxt.dev, @svelte.dev, and tailwind!

Extension dev is definitely a bit more painful than normal webdev - I have to basically do RPC from a "main world" script (what runs in a Figma tab) to an "isolated world" content script to a background script to bypass CORS :/

Other than that though, it's really cool!

It's a bit of a pain unfortunately - I wrote a Rust CF Worker and managed to run into two year old issues with the built in fetch and file sizes

yeah definitely! (and _maybe_ custom GPTs?)

claude would probably have a lot more market share if they actually let you use claude sonnet and have more than 5 messages/day on the free plan

Svelte dropped this update the day after I ran into an issue with stores :D

Svelte I love you :D

not a product, but zenithhacks.org and skyfall.dev :)
