When developing photon I always end up with more issues on chrome browsers than firefox. and half of those are because of its god awful scrollbar. Please use an overlay scrollbar instead of shifting the stupid page around, chrome.

ugh yeah classic chrome am I right? (I forgot how to center a div)

[–] AeonFelis 54 points 16 hours ago (2 children)

My website only works with Chrome, but it has to be a specific old version of it. And you also need to install some extensions. Very specific versions of these extensions. Few of them already removed from the store due to security backdoors.

I have a Docker image you can use to run Chrome though.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 10 hours ago

At that point, just release your website as an electron app.

What version of Docker do I need to run your container?

[–] AeonFelis 29 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

You'll need my fork of docker, and you'll need to apply a patch.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 15 hours ago (2 children)

Can I run your patched version of docker on docker?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 10 hours ago

Yes, with --privileged. It's totally safe. Trust me.

[–] AeonFelis 18 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

No. You need to run it in a VM that runs TempleOS.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

Which version of TempleOS?

[–] AeonFelis 23 points 13 hours ago

My code is portable enough to support all versions.

How did we get from "SGML varient for formatting text" to this?

[–] wowwoweowza 11 points 15 hours ago

Greatest format ever. I present you with the Demi-God of memes award for best use of THEY LIVE if you originated the template. If you did not originate you get the cool assed dude award for sharing. Many thanks.

I like this template so much better than the Spider-Man one that people constantly use backwards.

[–] TheBat 23 points 1 day ago (1 children)

But this one's also backwards? I haven't seen the movie, talking purely about the two photos.

[–] [email protected] 90 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

In the movie the glasses let the wearer see the truth. This template is often used backwards but it's correct in this case.

"They Live!" A guy finds some strange sunglasses that lets him see the subliminal messages hidden in all our print and media and advertisements. He can also see aliens walking amongst the population, disguised as regular humans!

Turns out, Earth had been invaded by aliens long ago and they've been keeping us under their control with subliminal messages for decades.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 12 hours ago

And the aliens definitely aren't allegory for capitalists

The Full movie is worth a watch.

Perhaps the best line ever uttered in any movie. Rowdy Roddy Piper maybe a B movie actor at best, but he was meant to play that role in that movie.

I have often wondered: Who wore a kilt best. Bruce Campbell or Rowdy Roddy Piper. Campbell was a Sharp Dressed Man in his kilt for sure. But Piper wrestled in one for years-- it was his trade mark garb.

One of the best fight scenes in any move too.

If your website only works with Chrome, it’s not a website. It’s a Chrome site.

You didn’t design for the web. You designed for Chrome.

I do this, but unironically.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 16 hours ago

An Antiquarian I see. Carry on my good fellow!

Fuck chrome. Such a dogshit unoptimized spyware browser that now disables ad-blocking plugins

[–] [email protected] 29 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

I agree that Chrome fucking sucks, but it's disingenuous to call it unoptimized. Chrome and chromium-based browsers are as fast as or faster than Firefox. Although I agree that manifest V3 is horrible to the web as a whole and shouldn't have been created.

It also eats up like 99% of your CPU

Chrome is awful in nearly every way one can measure a browser. Anyone still using this as they're main driver in 2025 is technologically challenged.

[–] [email protected] 28 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

It’s wild to see Chrome going from the browser to use if you had any tech sense whatsoever to being universally derided.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 hours ago

Universally derided

lol try looking outside lemmy. 90% of people still just use it and don't care
