Racism in the Fediverse: Eris of Disqordia
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WUXOUd2AENo
I wanted to put my thoughts on Eris and racism on fediverse in video form so here it is.
I want this wide. Boost boost boost. I want this on every fediverse instance's timeline.
@baldur anyway, putting blame where it is deserved, it’s actually Mozilla and Opera and WHATWG who killed XML by saying “actually just HTML and JS, the things we are already dominant market players for, is fine and all anybody really needs”
and in terms of Mozilla, probably specifically Brendan Eich, as i understand
@baldur i use XHTML for basically everything personally, because “keep the data in XML and transform to XHTML” is a trivial operation (with XSLT; you can even deliver the data in its original form to the user and have their browser do the transformation if you want), and MUCH better than the more contemporary “keep the data in JSON/YAML and use a heavyweight build step written in NodeJS or Ruby to transform it to HTML”
but
yeah, module scripts (<script type="module">) still don’t have support in Webkit and maybe Blink in XML documents, and it is a real thorn in my side
@aschmitz i have beef with ActivityStreams, which is otherwise quite popular, is probably the biggest thing to be aware of; disregarding the rest of the model, its Collection classes are quite heavily used and i’m still undecided whether i personally want to draw on them or lean on more oldfashioned approaches
@packetcat oh damn this is more sadiq content than i was expecting good work
@aschmitz it’s definitely not complete! there are some other vocabularies i’m already looking at adding but these seemed like the biggest “core” ones
my immediate priority is coming up with a way of specifying “profiles”—meaningful subsets of the vocabulary useful for particular tasks
@gaditb i was originally going to say PNG but then i thought some might have this take
@coriander just because girls are more horny for time periods with better plumbing and want to fuck vampires instead of lady magicians i mean
@coriander i mean i don’t want to say the ONLY difference between fantasy and romance is gender but it’s the only difference between SOME fantasy and SOME romance

@packetcat you listened to BERWYN?
@coriander i love mariners promos it’s probably a good thing i live Very Far from seattle
