@anjum@mstdn.ioI was shaking my head at him browsing the web with javascript enabled.

@bingo>For example, a student might be publicly shamed by his peers/teachers for some remark he made.Big difference here is that in real world that is mostly contained in that social circle. Go to another town or just another social circle in the same town and it's unlikely to affect you in any way. On the net most people use one account to interact with each of their circles and use the same name across platforms. So any shaming you might be receiving will also affect you standing in those other circles. Not to mention that since it's so much easier people will actively keep trying to ruin your reputation as widely as possible and in the future as well. In the real world it takes much more effort.

@ertecturingGoogle reader was that. RSS is not really profitable in the way that google wants so they kiled it.

Luke, you seem to be getting a lot of requests for checking people's websites. How about turning it into a video and making like a minute long review of each?

Would be nice if you added the streams here as well. I have a few things to comment on for the latest one.

You say that the javascript is strictly necessary since you want to send the card info straight to the processor but this is NOT true. It could just as well be a basic HTML form that just sends the POST to a different domain. Obviously this would need some csrf token stuff on the backend but I don't think the JS is necessary.

20:30 or so >switch to gentoo for peak minimalismGentoo is ANYTHING but minimalist. A minimalist operating system would not have any development tools or headers and shit unless the purpose is to do development. Sure you can minimize what features are enabled for packages but that does not make the distro minimalist. Gentoo is very much a maximalist distribution.

>add everything and then remove things you don't needsmdhBet it doesn't even remove GCC.

@robby@zoinks.one @waltercool@pl.slash.clThese labels are only useful for describing the general usage of the distribution. You could start with Mint and one by one remove everything that isn't strictly necessary but people would not call it minimalist.Removing GCC is not suggested since the whole idea of the system is that you can compile and thus customize everything. Having compilers and other such unecessary tools on a machine is not minimalist though. Gentoo is minimalist similar to how Mint is minimalist.

@robby@zoinks.one @waltercool@pl.slash.clI think you misunderstood what I mean with minimalism. Problem is not the GNU tools or their bloat. Problem is the at higher level than that. Replacing GCC with Clang or TCC is not going to fix that since none of those tools belong on a minimal install. To get to a minimal install you define the use case and add only the things absolutely necessary for that. Obviously GCC or some other compiler would be necessary in some use cases like a build server or a development machine but for most other cases it is unnecessary. I only picked GCC since that is very obvious example of lack of minimalism in Gentoo.

@robby@zoinks.one @waltercool@pl.slash.clI would like to add that most of the BSD suffer from the same issue since they insist on using ports.

@johnnysinsThere are plenty of distributions with less packages than gentoo.You could try buildroot or some other tool for creating embedded images. But even with these you don't get an absolutely minimal system by default.

I used to have a static site generator written in make and using m4 for the templates. Make is probably the best tool you could use for ssg. Make is really underappreciated tool and generated (cmake, autotools, etc.) makefiles are mostly to blame. Luke, you should try learning make. Reading the GNU make manual (info, not man) cover to cover is probably the best way to do it. If you don't want to read the html version then check out pinfo which is a nice info pager which resembles lynx a lot.There is one major gripe I have with make and it's that the path names are split by whitespace. There are some other minor ones as well that you might face if you use it enough like having to use $(call) for the macros you define or the fact that the dependencies for a thing are generated only once. But these minor ones you can work around pretty easily.

I've used wiby.me a few times but the problem I have with it is that it isn't very strict about bullshit js like google analytics among other things. The user submission model is also not that great way to get an index of sites when the user base is small. What it could do is take the submitted sites and follow all the links from those and start crawling. Though this automated crawling would depend on objective criteria for inclusion. I guess a semi-automated method where the site has a list of candidates that users could then manually check and either admit or deny. This would also mean that people would not have to waste time checking if site they wish to include is already included.

Luke. Checkout the perl module Lingua::Romana::Perligata. You'd really like it.

@cdcode @luke @moth@husk.site What percentage of websites have both http and gopher/gemini? I really doubt it being the norm.
