all the best windows software in history is called something like "joe's thing doer". it does the thing and nothing else and is available on a html website in plain text and takes up under a megabyte of space and uses default windows ui elements and will work until the heat death of the universe

This They Might Be Giants TONIGHT SHOW performance of "Birdhouse In Your Soul" from 1990 remains firmly lodged in my noggin thanks to the Tonight Show Band's full commitment and Doc Severinsen's incredible trumpeting... It took an already great song and made it transcendent.

`:heading` is going to be great for reset stylesheets. Set all of them to 1rem to better teach the difference between visual and structural hierarchy.
Hot off the presses! Firefox Nightly (www.mozilla.org/en-GB/firefo...) adds the new :heading pseudo! Easily style all headings, or use nth-child-like AnB syntax to select a range of headings! Needs `layout.css.heading-selector.enabled` flag enabled. Try it out and let me know your thoughts.

I'm old enough to remember when the entire political and advocacy apparatus of the Christian right would gear up to defend the religious freedom rights of Christians being persecuted around the world.
Not all that familiar with the New Testament, so perhaps some of the good Christians who serve in the Trump administration could explain how this gibes with their deeply held beliefs.
Remarkable reporting via a 5-person NYT team.

Been wondering why a bunch of sites have been SUPER slow lately.
Turns out it's the @1password.bsky.social chrome extension doing really bad things. :/
Gonna have to disable for awhile.

thinking about canned cranberry sauce this weekend and how it's such a good example of simplifying something that was already the easiest Thanksgiving side by far only to make it significantly worse in the process.
