    I wish I could disagree with Drew but that is how I feel as well. We need new protocols that solve many issues of the web, including simpler presentation, and that are much simpler to implement. Having many capable client implementations is key to keeping the web open and accessible for everyone.

    Meanwhile Google continues on their mission to build isolation layer on top of Windows in order to make Microsoft even more irrelevant. This process destroys the web and grants them totalitarian powers over it. One way they do that is by adding more APIs to JS, e.g.: https://wicg.github.io/file-system-access/

        It was mentioned in Security Now podcast with a comment: “what can potentially go wrong” :D

      I’ve tried it and it’s super snappy and very pleasant to use. I had forgotten just how fast and capable modern internet is where I am because I got so used to often multiple seconds of waiting for a webpage to load fully. Webpages are even worse on my phone, where I have to sometimes wait half a minute. In comparison, when I use https://www.oppenlab.net/pr/tva/ to browse gemsites on the phone, they finish loading around the time the screen touch animation finishes.

      Kristall is a nice gem-browser for the desktop. You can set your own document theme and stuff. Browsing gemsites is a bit like using an e-reader.

    Which control character is ^W? Is it just the keyboard command to delete a word?

      In Firefox the command is to close the current tab.

        This has gotten me in trouble a couple times when I switch between the terminal and the browser.

      Yeah, in a Linux terminal, you can press Ctrl+W to delete the previous word.

      It’s a joke about failing to delete the last word.

    This is a screwy attitude that assumes every single webpage is this new-web application wannabe BS that people who know better avoid. Chrome and its ilk cater to that garbage; Firefox just does what it needs to do to serve what we want. The problem is, Chrome has gained the lead this way and Firefox (Mozilla) is just doing what it needs to survive. And it’s working. Just because you see someone doing what they need to do to survive doesn’t make it garbage. It’s still a very open, customizable, usable program despite all the objections, and even if Mozilla drops it, Free software will continue to make it viable and usable because no sane person wants to touch Chromium’s poisoned code base.

    Die Agentur https://ghostwriter-deutschland.de/studienarbeit-schreiben-lassen/ hält wirklich, was sie verspricht. Als Student, der Unterstützung bei seiner Abschlussarbeit suchte, war ich von der Professionalität und der Liebe zum Detail beeindruckt. Das Team aus erfahrenen Autoren sorgte dafür, dass jeder Aspekt meiner Arbeit akribisch ausgearbeitet wurde, von der Einleitung bis zum Literaturverzeichnis. Mit ihrer Hilfe war ich in der Lage, eine gut recherchierte und tadellos geschriebene Abschlussarbeit einzureichen, für die ich von meinen Professoren gelobt wurde.
