I wish that whomever they hired to do their site didn't make it #JavaScrippled.

Bloated, JavaScript heavy sites are great for people with the newest computers and software, not so great for someone who may be trying to view from an underfunded library's computer or a grandparents' computer.

You've probably already seen this: https://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-2459146.html [ubuntuforums org] (Suggested fix for the #Wi-Fi issue.)

The other issue is that modern Web applications bloat up memory use. I'm not even sure that 8GB will be enough.

Several years ago, I had a desktop machine with 4GB of RAM. If I opened Chrome with around 8 #JavaScrippled tabs, it could freeze my X11 session or even force reboot the computer in about 8 hours. Even though I'm sure Chrome and Chromium have improved, they are probably still really heavy on RAM usage.

I didn't look at the price / MSRP, but as long as you're sure that OpenSuSE will install and that 8GB will meet your needs, you're probably not going to find anything that is clearly better unless you're almost willing to double the price. I'd say go for it.

Okay, so it looks like one of the places that is growing because of #Twitter's issues is #Tribel ( https://www.tribel.com/ ). I never heard of it before.

Site seems to be #JavaScrippled.

@lxo One thing that sometimes helps for reading #JavaScrippled sites is to have an archive site grab a copy. I think people often use archive dot ph for that. It won't let you use anything that requires genuine JS functionality, but most of the time, you're probably just reading anyway.

Meh. If you're using Twitter's embed code to show info from Twitter's site on your own web page, then you get whatever Twitter wants to show you. This is not Twitter editing your web page, this Kevin Marks's web page retrieving code from Twitter, and letting unknown code run in the viewer's browser.

If you really want an immutable record of what Twitter had then copy'n'paste the text, don't use Twitter's embed code. Or you could capture a screenshot, just be sure to provide full ALT text so the text is still text.

Browsers that block Javascript should still see the blockquote text that's actually part of the page.

#Javascrippled, although not in the conventional manner.

"articleBody":"A major milestone in the commissioning of the James Webb Space Telescope has been met, as engineers continue to bring the observatory’s view of the universe into focus.\n\n\nWe’ve seen these 18 dots before, but now they’re organized. Oh, how beautifully organized.\n\nThe $10 billion Webb telescope is currently fixated on this single star, designated HD 84406, as engineers work to align its 18 gold mirrors. Eventually, these 18 dots will merge together to form a single image. At first, these dots were seen as 18 scattered, quasi-random spots, but now they’re oriented to match the honeycomb shape of the primary mirror, in a process known as Segment Image Identification, according to a NASA statement. \n\n“We steer the segment dots into this array so that they have the same relative locations as the physical mirrors,” Matthew Lallo, systems scientist at the Baltimore-based Space Telescope Science Institute, said in the statement.\n\nWith the dots oriented into a hexagonal formation, the team will now go about Segment Alignment in which large positioning errors will be corrected for each segment. The team will also update the secondary mirror alignment, which will make each dot appear more focused; it’ll basically be like giving each mirror a pair of glasses. The third phase is called Image Stacking, and it’s exactly how it sounds: the team will bring all 18 spots of light on top of each other to form a single dot. \n\nThe current orientation of the mirrors should make the second and third steps more manageable. As Lallo explained, once the Image Stacking process gets underway, the “familiar arrangement” of the 18 mirrors will give the team an “intuitive and natural way of visualizing changes in the segment spots in the context of the entire primary mirror.” The commissioning team “can now actually watch the primary mirror slowly form into its precise, intended shape,” he added.\n\nThe alignment stage began on February 2, and it should be completed by the end of the month. Launched on Christmas Day 2021, Webb is expected to enter into the science phase of the mission in June, at which time it will explore some of the most distant regions of the universe, the evolution of galaxies over time, and the atmospheres of extrasolar planets, among other celestial phenomena. \n\nMore: Webb Space Telescope Successfully Sees Its First Glimmer of Light.\n

Case in point, in any of the #Chromium based browsers, you can turn #JavaScript totally on or totally off. There is no option to turn it off for 3rd party domains.

So many sites are #JavaScrippled these days that turning JS all the way off (without a one-click way to turn it on for one site) is too frustrating for anyone to do.

I did see in #Edge today that I can add sites individually to either a separate Yes to JS or No to JS list. I don't recall seeing it until recently. But that's cumbersome.

Apparently, the FTC (and 48 state attorneys general) are suing #Facebook over its monopolistic practices, including buying up emerging competitors.

The biggest question on everyone's minds should be where is #USDOJ? They should have sued back when Facebook bought #WhatsApp and #Instagram ... or at the least, been actively involved in prosecuting this lawsuit. It really does seem like DOJ's beef with #Google is that the bribes ^W political contributions weren't large enough or didn't reach the right person.

In the late 1990s, when I had a computer running #Win95, with 32MB of RAM, one of my brothers had started playing an online game with "hive" as part of its name. Anyway, I was recently curious and wondered what the original game was and whether it was still around. I don't have a firm conclusion, but I did discover at least one "hive" game that currently exists. https://www.boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/2655/hive

@mangeurdenuage Yeah, #Pleroma is #JavaScrippled and bloated with gobs of unnecessary #JabbaShit ( #JavaScript ). They really need to slim down their use of JS and make the basic page load without it.

#Mastodon also depends on JS to load much of its content.

In my opinion, most of this could be done better and faster without the JS (although JS is needed for downloading new posts without a full page reload).

Hoping I have time and resources to actually write my #vaporware projects (federated socnet servers) soon.

@simsa03 MMN seems to be working a lot of hours and probably hasn't had time to be an active maintainer. (I think he's still the admin at social.umeahackerspace.se .) But at least Diogo and Tenma are busy working on GS code. Version 2.0 is underway and they are planning for 3.0 already.

I'm not sure why Hannes did not revive #Quitter.se, at least long enough for its users to download their data. All I know is that there was some sort of disk failure and the site has never come back after that.

I'm not a fan of #JavaScrippled interfaces such as #Qvitter, but it would be great to see someone step up and revive that project.
