https://github.com/ekzhang/rustpad Cooperative online text / document editor. Looked interesting until I saw that it requires #Node.JS.

I'm also still a little leery of letting WASM run in my browsers. Not that people can read obfuscated minified #JavaScript, but if you could obtain the pre-minified source, you might be able to tell what it was doing. With WASM, you're totally just letting unauditable and untrusted code run in your browser.

(I know this has a "Get off my lawn" flavor, but that's not what is happening here. Just wait until a GRU-sponsored malware gang starts inserting malicious WASM into popular sites around the Web.)

Time to switch back to #Palemoon. I've been using #Falkon as my main browser for a few days.

Plus: Unlike Palemoon, when Falkon decides to have an issue, one or more tabs fail to load, but the browser itself doesn't crash.

Minus: It really needs something like NoScript, where all #JavaScript is off, except for specific sites you authorize; it cannot load PleromaFE and cannot log in with Soapbox. I should have tried Bloat, but I didn't. Although I don't knowingly have any Snaps installed, snapd randomly spins all CPU cores at 100% for a few minutes ... this was never observed with Palemoon.

@storm #Pleroma comes with PleromaFE and MastoFE. I know PleromaFE is high in #JavaScript. If the #JabbaShit interferes with your assistive technologies, there is a separate front end called “Bloat”, which is supposed to be much less JavaScript-y.

I have not seen Bloat myself (I don’t even know the project’s URL), so this is all hearsay.

I should probably go ahead and close my #Twitter account. I keep saying I'm going to log in again, but I haven't ... partly because they've now made it impossible to use without turning on #JavaScript / #JabbaShit ... together with all the other unpleasing things about the site, I just don't want to deal with it anymore.

So I took a cursory look around https://dart.dev/ ... I think #Dart resembles #Java ... this may be why it has far less mindshare than #TypeScript and #CoffeeScript among "compiles to #JavaScript" languages.

Also on hold:

I had just started an exploration push with “Deno”:{https://deno.land/} and “JSI/jsish”:{https://jsish.org/} ... but despite being interesting (as interesting as #JavaScript gets, IMO, but with seemingly less of the security nightmare that is Node.js and the NPM package repository), I think it is better to pause it along with the other learning projects.

I suppose it could be worse. They could clone #PayPal. It's been a few years since I closed my account, but at the time, #PreyPal used #JavaScript during password change time to prevent you from pasting a password in from a password manager. I can't remember whether they also prevented pasting during the process of logging in.

It is irritating that so many #socnets think they have to be entirely depending on #JavaScript. Mastodon and #Pleroma both require #JabbaShit before they display anything or have even basic functionality.

It is bad, anti-human design.

I've reloaded the #NBCNews page so many times that their "please turn off your adblocker" interstitial stopped giving me the view site anyway option. Turning off #JavaScript got rid of that, but no more nice election results map. Switching to #CNN.

@mangeurdenuage There are also some sites that try to prevent copy-pasting passwords. I think PayPal does this when people are changing passwords. It's evil, but if users have #JavaScript / #JabbaShit activated, sites can do things like this.

I do agree that users need to be willing to think and to learn something when using computing devices. Trying not to have to think, not to learn something is a direct highway to having someone else do all your thinking and make all your decisions and choices for you.

I also think developers and companies like to change the UI and the way users interact with software far too often. No, you don't need to follow this year's appearance fad like you followed the fads of the year for the past 2-3 years. Leave things alone for a few years.

Oh, yes. Turning on #JavaScript / #JabbaShit is going to improve my security as you plunder my browser history and upload my files and photos to your server. I will turn it on right away.

JS-based webapps are a lot like adding salt to one's food. There's a point where you're simulating food with colored salt. No matter how appealing it looks, it is still nasty and harmful.

#JavaScript should be off-by-default and enabled on a per-site basis ... and only if necessary for some particular site function.

I just visited http://diveintomark.org/ just to see whether Mr. Pilgrim decided to come back one more time. Instead, I see one of those "this site works better with JS enabled" messages. Being me, I CTRL+U and view source. Yep, just as expected. Adsense.js ... I didn't read farther, so I don't know whether this is one of those squatters.

Nope. Not going to turn on JS.

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

(NOTE: page is #JavaScrippled. Since I was looking but not playing, I did not turn on #JavaScript to see what it does.)

Had to restart #Palemoon because it was getting slow. Too much #JavaScript / #JabbaShit bloating up its memory and CPU consumption. I'd really like it if most sites went on a JS diet and cut out most of the unwanted and unnecessary scripts.

@musicman I'm sure there are more efficient ways to read logs, but I often use either
A: "grep errorname /path/to/logfile | less"

when I know what I'm looking for

or

B: "tail -n someLargeNumber /path/to/logfile | less"
(or sometimes "tail -n someLargeNumber /path/to/logfile | head -n someSmallerNumber | less")

when I'm just wanting to see the most recent someLargeNumber entries or some earlier subset of the most recent someLargeNumber entries.

But most of the time, there will be at least one script tag that is loading #JavaScript. The src attribute will give a path where that is coming from.
