Definitely will do, thanks capjamesg[d] ! By the way, how do I get access to #indieweb-chat ?
#
capjamesg
Ah! #indieweb-chat resets if you don't have it in focus.
#
capjamesg
The chat is "unlogged" so people can have ephermal conversations.
#
capjamesg
The feature isn't used too much on other Discord servers, but many communitity members have come to like the unlogged nature of that room here.
#
[tantek]
maybe worth adding that to /discuss#Discord

jacky: What a coincidence to log in and see this post! I'm writing a community reader that can discover a feed link on a website.

I should add a NSFW disclaimer to those links for those who don't get my schtick, even though you have to agree to be 18 to even enter the site.
#
Loqi
agreed.

@Loqi After we teach you JavaScript, we'll move on to advanced subjects like irony.

tantek_com[d] Can you comment on specific browser implementations of CSS? I presume you know something about how Firefox works.

real_devastatia[d] lawd I'm that old to get the Geekly Reader/Weekly Reader pun without even blinking. 😅

starrwulfe[d] My friend who was born in 1959 got a giggle out of it too. I was dismayed to learn yesterday that Scholastic discontinued publication of the WR when they bought it out in 2012.

The OKC newspaper was called the Daily Oklahoman for many years before they renamed it. The local LGBTQ community spoofed it with a paper called the Gaily Oklahoman.

Bit by bit, bye-bye my childhood. I used to be in charge of passing them out when I was in elementary school 38 years ago. Some really good articles, and a really big piece of kindling that sparked my interest in journalism I'm sure

I liked to sniff the fresh mimeograph printouts. Explains much, perhaps.

capjamesg[d]: Fair. Maybe I'll have to hop on irc for the first time in I don't know how long.

joxef[d]: No obligation! The main discussions happen in #indieweb. Chat is more of a social place where we all say good morning and sometimes random facts of our day.

Oh, and there's a Taylor Swift bot in there.

Start a message with `!ts <word>` to get a related lyric (i.e. `!ts breakfast`)
