Okay I kinda love this. I wonder if POSIX make would be possible … it’d be much more complicated..

The expected answer was “Thanks, I hate this”, but I’ll take it. ;-)
Re POSIX make: the arithmetic part is part of POSIX, but seq
is not. That said I tried this Makefile
on macOS, NixOS, Arch Linux, and OpenBSD and all of their bin/sh
implementations had seq
. I’m not sure about the differences between GNU and POSIX make, but it did not work out of the box with OpenBSD’s make but I was too lazy to look into why.
I love doing things that aren’t supposed to be done with software :)
I think the define
syntax is a GNU extension.

Me too :-) That’s why I’m always surprised when a post like this gets serious comments like “seq is a non-portable shell builtin” (not here, on another site). I mean, yeah, that’s true, but maybe portability wasn’t my main concern for a throwaway hack…
Hahah, fair enough :) The tricky thing, especially about make, is that it’s so tied to shell it’s also hard to know how much shell is too much.
I don’t have much to say here, except this sounds like a well-reasoned solution to the problem of content-blocking on the modern Web.
Here are some things you can do if you want to be super cool like me:
I’m legit so excited about this! I cannot WAIT to log-in to any gitea instance using my tildegit credentials ^_^
This might mean I don’t have to like, uh, install cgit on my server ^_^
I can relate. I’ve been quite excited lately by codeforge mirroring; codeberg, tildegit, etc. But all that does is bring us back to the web 1.0 days of websites that were thin veneers for large lists of ftp mirrors. Federation would augment that read-only interface with writes, the ability to contribute back.
100%, it would bring gitea/gogs/etc. on-par with github, and honestly i’d quit using it /at all/ for anything but forks.
I wonder how integrated it will be.. The idea of opening and closing issues, commenting on pull requests, etc from mastodon is really interesting to me.
oh shit i didn’t even think about that.
of course, other activitypub things aren’t all super-integrated with say, mastodon, which is too bad imo. or maybe i’m just kinda dumb about it….
Seems like every update to Firefox, it gets a little sketchier. I really need to look into a user.js file for privacy’s sake … I just loathe how much time it’ll take me.
Awww @ben, you’re the best :) Sorry my code was never really the right thing …
Anyway this is amazing, I’m so happy!
(Though I /might’ve/ come over to the “dark” side lately….)
Yeah my new job doesn’t have their overhead lights on ever, so a dark theme is actually better. Of course, I’d /prefer/ to have lights, but … when in Rome …
EDIT: also, very nice theme all around :D
DOUBLE EDIT: Of course, I still have a light theme in my editor XD
This is such a great idea, honeslty, I love it. I haven’t used it yet (of course!) but it’s such a good idea…. anyway i wonder how hard it’d be to spin this up on my own server.
I opened this page originally to comment on Gemini’s unfortunate (to my mind) minor obsession with reinventing things to be “minimal”, but then I read the actual document and I admit I hadn’t thought of how complex epubs can be. So maybe this /is/ a good idea! Now I just have to write a gempub reader in Bash…
Yep, someone should read http://www.talyarkoni.org/blog/2010/07/07/What-the-Dunning-Kruger-effect-Is-and-Isnt/
So this is basically the WTFPL without the F part? Neat!
I will take this opportunity to plug my lil license too, the Good Choices License:
Everyone is permitted to do whatever with this software, without
limitation. This software comes without any warranty whatsoever,
but with two pieces of advice:
- Don't hurt yourself.
- Make good choices.
LOL I’m thinking about changing the advice to
- Make good choices.
- Be kind to yourself.
But considering also just having “Be kind” at the second one… idk.
Looks quite nice! I particularly like that it’s not counting unread articles like so many RSS readers do. It reminds me of sfeed. If anyone sees this and wishes it was C and text files instead of Go and SQLite, definitely check out sfeed.
Can confirm sfeed is way more powerful than it seems at first glance. It’s easy as heck to script too!
