I'm not convinced "slash page" is any better, than ".well-known"
#
petermolnar
none of them are trivial, both are human language and context specific
#
petermolnar
eg. "now" is English

gwg doing some wikipedia edits, trying to capture all the efforts to remove racist symbolism and confederate monuments in the south over the weekend
#
GWG
I missed that there were actions against monuments again...I was watching NYC.
#
[jgmac1106]
the best was the burning of the daughters of the confederacy HQ (not that I am advocating for arson...sorry, not sorry) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Jgmac1106
#
[jgmac1106]
most of them were updated overnight but I filled in the gaps on anything missing. Got to learn about Ida Wells who was an amazing person: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ida_B._Wells
#
GWG
I appreciate the heroes who update Wikipedia

has anyone been seing inconsistent returns from 'https://archive.org/wayback/available?' lately, or is it just me?
#
[jgmac1106]
I archived a bunch of sites yesterday and a few took multiple tries...not sure if connected

doesn't matter; it takes me to sites that give me the feeling I haven't had since ~ '98, after clicking on random links with the phone line hooked up to the 56k modem
#
[LewisCowles]
👍 just the first thing that struck me about the page

well this is new, twitter is apparently suggesting that you reword your tweet if you type certain words
KartikPrabhu, [Cal_ThreadRead], KindTwo and KindOne joined the channel
#
[KevinMarks]
That was a few weeks ago initially, maybe they added words

If you want consistent and small svg share icons look at https://github.com/edent/SuperTinyIcons

Some huge percentage of svgshare.com is variations on social share icons

aaronpk: what did you type into twitter that made you suggest to reword it?
#
aaronpk
wasn't me, i saw someone else commenting about it
#
aaronpk
i hadn't heard of that feature yet

Q from my 9 year old: Why did the computer go to the eye doctor?
#
[chrisaldrich]
A: To improve its websites. 😉
#
[chrisaldrich]
What are jokes?
#
Loqi
It looks like we don't have a page for "jokes" yet. Would you like to create it? (Or just say "jokes is ____", a sentence describing the term)
#
[chrisaldrich]
what is fun?

omg mght have some webmention joke examples on Ben's blog
#
[jgmac1106]
actually not webemtnion I think native comments
#
Loqi
[Ben McVerry] All answers to jokes will be in the comments. Please leave me a comment if you get one right why can't you watch TV with a dog?
#
[jgmac1106]
to which we then had to turn off native comments...spam

Hmm, I'm seeing a very odd result with a local county press release permalink. I'm seeing a 403 (with an OpenID login option lol) while when I looked at it via Internet Archive, it worked fine: https://parks.smcgov.org/press-release/san-mateo-county-parks-closes-all-parks-slow-spread-covid-19
#
[tantek]
Anyone else getting a 403 from that page ^^^ ?
#
vilhalmer
403 here
#
[LewisCowles]
I just saved if you want the HTML
#
[tantek]
yup just got that to work
#
[tantek]
I'm more curious why a county government site would take down a press release like that
#
[LewisCowles]
Ah. I'm getting increasingly obsessed with archiving things.
#
[LewisCowles]
archive.org is an increasingly large and fairly standalone target
#
[tantek]
pretty sure it's mirrored in at least two other locations
KartikPrabhu and wolftune joined the channel
#
[LewisCowles]
it's not the mirroring. It's that one service can never offer plurality. It's not a dig at archive
#
[LewisCowles]
It's more that I hope more groups make archiving sites
#
[LewisCowles]
If more people did it, I would not have saved the page once I got it in-case deliberately or otherwise information was leaked
#
[LewisCowles]
`/r/datahoarder` can occasionally if I get there before the mods give some cool things. Web-chats seem to be the best though

hmm Foursquare history is back online (haven't checked in a few days)
