i will see if i can reply to more things tomorrow, for now really need sleep because meeting shit in ~7 hours..

@linear you also don't gain *anything* by saying you won't use any js, just shooting yourself in the foot, now or later

@linear i dont really have hard examples on hand and it's probably a bad idea to get hot takes out right before much needed bedtime, but;

colorschemes, fonts, font sizes, come to mind. While *technically* possible through horrible css hacks or page reloading, it makes the ux for switching much much worse, especially as you need to switch a couple of times to see what works best.

Really tbh, any interaction on a page (and this project has plenty) sucks when it has to navigate and load a new page whenever you want to favorite some thing, etc

hot take I guess, and probably not one that's gonna be popular

seeing a project advertise as "no javascript" is a huge red flag for usability (and accessibility) tbqh, especially the fact that they won't even consider it even when it might be the best tool to make a ui element work.
yes use only what you have to
yes do progressive enhancement
no don't take a techbro all-or-nothing stance, it gets you nowhere

unfortunately it's not gonna be that case because noone here stocks it >:( (and it doesn't fit enough disks)

current idea is fractal design node 304, with a ryzen 5 2600. should be plenty futureproof for pixie.town

uni stress 

so yeah, this course has the brilliant idea of forcing you to come up with 60 concept ideas, and for a few months my creativity has been down the drain, mostly *because* of stress.. and it's a core fundamental of the course so definitely no exceptions

misgendering 

@dragon yes, every time i send a mastodon invite link the url preview says "@f0x invites you to join *t*his server" and i have an ughh moment

@dragon just wait till i get my new mousepad :P (and am not in a (video)chat with distracting others), where of course someone else had to post their 497cpm/99wpm score right after..

@dragon yeah... i really like my current steelseries so think i might upgrade to the big version of that

@dragon ah okay, mostly just curious :) still *kind* of considering the sakura ones
