@alvaromontoro Oh I like this one! I struggled for the last one with the trig function but in hindsight, duh. Pythagoras would be proud!

For some time, I've wanted to try and replicate how my #ocular #migraine episodes look to me. This is a rough approximation (and your computer fans will eventually spin because it's garbage code) but it is pretty close: basically a screen crack where each shard changes colour randomly all the time, which moves as you look around. It is luckily rare and short, but still, I wish I wasn't so dang online that even my sight glitched!

@Wilto As the cool kids say these days: hella nice.
Scribbled out text? Nice.
Subtle gradient in headings? NICE.
Fonts? NOICE.
Also, do you have a cheeky event listener to the prefers-color-scheme media query changing? Because I’ve used a listener in the past for the window size, but never thought about colour scheme, and heck that’s cool.

I responded to @1password@1password.social's email asking about opting out of AI and such, and they sent an automated response. I responded again saying it didn't answer my questions, which I reiterated… and they sent that automated email again.
I am reminded of @jimniels@mastodon.social's recent post about care (https://blog.jim-nielsen.com/2026/observations-on-care/). It checks out!

@shoptalkshow@front-end.social Not sure if this issue no longer occurs but my RSS reader (Feeder) reports an error fetching the podcast feed due to bot-blocking, it seems? If you're already on it, sorry for the noise!

So I was reading the new #CSS selectors level 5 draft, like one does, and what do I see? `label /for/ input` will let us select the input referenced by a label's for attribute? I don't have a good use case right now, usually `label + input` or `label > input` does the trick, but still… very cool to have the option. Interested to see what other use cases people come up with.

Double pagination in #eleventy? Yes, we can! And given it's a fun challenge, I wrote about it here: https://chriskirknielsen.com/blog/double-pagination-in-eleventy/ Also yes my entire sense of humour is memes, why do you ask? #11ty
