this looks cool. the only criticism i have is that the colour of links is too dark in dark theme (especially already visited links), but i am not sure what colour it would be good to change them to instead. if this is fixed i would be happy to merge these changes though.

well, presumably the lights are not flickering because their power supply is being turned on and off, they are flickering because they are broken

it used to be the old gh0.pw icon but that icon was made by tux1 who isn't a very nice person so i changed it to euler everywhere

ubq323 (edited ) #1119

i don't know what a donny is but

euler

it is euler, of course

oh wait, might be a webhook thing

ok, seems to be to do with the very long title. weirdly it isn't logging anything to the server error log, and also weirdly i can't reproduce this locally. as a workaround i will add a maximum thread title length.

it is revealed. the only remaining mystery is then: who is Count Wim Rikmef?

ubq323 #1047

that would only search post titles and would only search exact matches, which is worse than either of the two methods heretofore mentioned

twitter and reddit are both pretty awful imo

ubq323 #1035

i was in a similar situation a few years ago. the first couple of weeks after quitting reddit were difficult but i did genuinely feel just generally better after that than i had previously. it is hard though.

no, but it does support sqlite fts5 query syntax

why not: because evaluating a regex against every single post ever would be unfathomably slow. instead we use sqlite's fts5 (full text search) extension to index posts by words that appear in them (or something, i'm not sure how it works actually).

why would they think it had been hacked? tell them that they are wrong and that the uwu button is intentional

what if my Ryanairflight is killedbyadinosaur mid eair flight

ubq323 #1024

what if wimRikmef is an acronym for the name of the book or something. wi might stand for "what if" perhaps.

ubq323 #1023

good question

clearly it's a moustache

excellent

ok, hypothesis: the plane is being eaten by some sort of eldritch creature. randall's new book will be about applying real science to absurd hypothetical scenarios (ie "what to do if the plane you are on is attacked by some sort of eldritch creature"). it might be called "what to do" or something.

i tried to read this webcomic thing and the first few just seemed to be bad generic sexism, does it get any better after that?
