I'm not a comic book reader, but from what I've heard the characters never dying permanently is a common theme, so at least there's a precedent

I was blissfully unaware how old it was until you said something, so you're not alone there

And to be honest, I kind of like this popup. It tells me (1) to avoid this website and (2) what extensions I can download that will cause trackers the most disruption!

Anything else of note so far? How big is the "Fuck spez" section relative to the whole canvas?

Also how long until admins "fix" it, I wonder...

Guide: Write cool posts and comments with Markdown for newbies in c/[email protected]

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

The Markdown will be passed in the ActivityPub messages in plaintext, so it's up to the app developer how to interpret the Markdown. Looks like someone already created a ticket on GitHub so I'd recommend either adding a thumbs up to increase visibility or make the change yourself if you're able!

Just want to plug markdown as a phenomenal resource. You can use it to write documentation both online and offline, and with pandoc you can even use it to create beautiful PDF documents from your computer. Here's some places I use markdown daily, some additional resources, and tips

GitHub parses markdown files from their web UI by default
Obsidian uses markdown for their note taking application
Pandoc can convert Markdown files to other formats including PDF
Because it's plaintext, there are fewer formatting errors when moving between applications and you don't even need an application to read them
Plaintext also means documents can be easily tracked via source control
Lemmy and Reddit both use Markdown
Discord uses a variation of Markdown

Injunction blocking Florida law targeting drag shows applies to all venues, judge says in c/[email protected]

I just don't get why they've made drag shows and the trans community their new "policy" agenda. Why would you even care about whether a child sees a man (or woman) in drag?

This is why I struggle to empathize with the modern conservative movement. I just don't get it. They don't use logic or reason, they just attack whatever gives them the ick and I wish I could understand being so sure of something that all evidence points to as being incorrect.

Firefox has surpassed Chrome on Speedometer in c/[email protected]

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Can you give an example of websites not supporting Firefox?

From a personal use perspective, I have rarely encountered sites that do not work on Firefox, especially in recent years. Two years ago I may have needed to keep a Chromium browser around but recently I have had no issues.

And from a professional perspective, dropping support for Firefox would be asinine. Most modern web frameworks handle browser compatibility for you, and you essentially get it for free these days. It is almost no extra effort to be compatible to all modern browsers, so why stop? Firefox is has great browser support in general and is far better than the current state of Safari

I agree that they don't have a device which they can use to force or promote their browser like other companies can. Which is a shame and is why they should perhaps try to advertise more aggressively. However, it's a free, open source browser, I don't really want them to advertise or be profit driven

React custom hook equivalent in Svelte? (beehaw.org)

submitted 1 year ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

I'm experienced with React and was just trying out a small Svelte to-do list to get my feet wet with Svelte and see if it's something I'd like to suggest we try out at work.

However, there's one thing I wanted to clarify that wasn't immediately obvious from the documentation (and to just kickstart some discussion since this community is a little quiet).

In React, if I have a large file doing a good amount of logic, like in the to-list example where I have add logic, remove logic, and toggle logic, all of which can be complex in their own ways if you improve them enough, I am able to extract the logic out into it's own file by creating a custom hook. Like so

const useTodoList = () => {
  const [list, setList] = useState([]);

  const addItem = (taskName) => {
    // task creation logic
    setList(l => [...l, newTask]);
  }

  // logic for removeItem and toggleItem

  return { list, addItem, removeItem, toggleItem };
}

Then, I can bring that into my component file by simply doing const { ... } = useTodoList(); and everything should just work. What would the equivalent be in Svelte? It sounds like I would want to leverage the store concept, but that feels odd to me. I go from having pretty simple logic to having to add additional libraries to my logic. It's a lot of overhead for what should really be a pretty straightforward refactor in React.

Any insight you guys can give would be great! Additionally, I'd love to be able to move the style as well, but so far haven't found anything that would be suitable for that quite yet. Svelte seems pretty set on having one large file whenever possible.

Alternatives to Google Discovery? in c/[email protected]

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Flipboard is a little more customizable but not sure if it meets all your requirements.

You could also give Pocket a try, it has a "Discover" mode that could be what you're looking for. Made by Mozilla so (hopefully) that comes with a little more privacy built in. It'd be my personal choice, but I'm not sure what features you need

Saw a movie at the museum about some projects Jane Goodell knows of that keeps her optimistic about the state of the world and the ecosystem. Really uplifting and motivating, made me want to start volunteering and trying to make a difference

Do cultures where foods are generally spicier always have flamin' hot poops? (beehaw.org)

submitted 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

At this point in my life, I don't avoid spicy foods because I can't handle the taste of the spice, but more because of what that spice will feel like coming out the other end the next day.

Some cultures, like India for instance, are known to use very spicy ingredients in their daily cooking.

Are they all just used to having firey asses or have they developed some gut biome capable of neutralizing the capcasin before its inevitable exit?
