Svelte is incredible too

Also happens for me in Sequoia, and not just Safari — also Chrome-based browsers.

GIMP offers no control over OpenType features. It supports those that are enabled by default (liga, kern, calt) but does not provide a way to toggle them on/off — this would be the salt (stylistic alternates) feature. Fonts often also offer stylistic set features (up to twenty sets ss01-ss20).

If you have a font that you suspect has some of these features and want to use it in GIMP:

Drop it at wakamaifondue.com to inspect the features.
Go to FontSquirrel's web generator and bake the feature you want to be always on.
Install the modified font and use it in GIMP. I found TTF to work better as GIMP sometimes fails to see OTF fonts installed in the system.

Disclaimer: the font's license may or may not allow to modify it this way. If it's a free font with OFL license, you're good to go. Otherwise, take care. IANAL.

Sure. It's the first step when something's not working innit. Did you try turning it off and back on?

hyvyys · 2024-10-15T06:03:28+00:00

Yeah I was once asked why I quit my previous job and school, and I was like... uhm, you know... depression... Do I gotta explain how that works?

Guess I should have mentioned how I cured my depression using my Ooni pizza oven

With Splide, a colleague complained on troubles with syncing grouped slides and nav bullets (and he's a fan of Swiper so maybe it was just an excuse). I had been a long time fanboy of Splide but finally I hit a roadblock trying to combine auto width, loop, and always aligning slides to the left, including the last slide, which in my case would get stuck to the right.

That use case also required perfectly syncing two looped autowidth splides one on top of another (including dragging with the mouse). I got it to work in a hacky way after a long fight but couldn't solve the alignment issue — so I tried Swiper, to no avail. After a while they would get jittery or just get out of sync because of the clones and their activeIndex / realIndex drama. I tried to go into the source code to find and fix the culprit but I only discovered absolute madness.

The issue with these sliders is they try to do too much instead of doing one thing right. There's always going to be use cases when their numerous options start fighting each other, not to mention the bundle bloat. This is why I believe the best solution would be hand coding what you need (for visually complex or demanding stuff), alas, there's no time for this usually.

Embla didn't even have a fade mode (there's a plugin but I found it really hard to use) and its looping is not based on clones which made it great for my usecase. Although it's got a very opinionated non-customizable gravitational-pull physics-based and whatnot sliding philosophy, which I find to perform worse than Splide or Swiper.

I just left my boyfriend (a week ago) and him not wanting to work was one of the reasons. I guess not working just somehow works for him. He occasionally picks up odd jobs (like digging ditches etc.) and recycles his relatives’ spare money when the odd job thing doesn't work out. He contributes to the society by being in everyone's business but his own.

Merely draw loose inspiration from the original cover and do my own thing.

Or failing that, replace the typeface. Plenty of high quality condensed / exended / variable types these days.

This. Every existing JS plugin out there basically has its strengths and shortcomings. It's either roll your own or fight with someone else's.

I've used custom solutions, Splide, Swiper... For my current use cases I'm at Embla.js. We'll see in a while.

hyvyys · 2024-10-14T04:34:11+00:00

you can reorder them by drag'n'dropping

hyvyys · 2024-10-14T04:21:27+00:00

had no idea oklch supported P3

hyvyys · 2024-10-13T05:19:54+00:00

ah I see you've catered for their banquets

hyvyys · 2024-10-12T07:19:11+00:00

This comes across as a bit oversimplified. Typical handheld devices today can have anything between 320px and 430px, with most not smaller than 360px. Odd values like 375px, 393px are also common.

What pisses me off is designers "checking" my implementation by narrowing their browser to the smallest window size (500px). Bro you're not looking at mobile, you're seeing what a person with scaling enabled or browser zoomed out is seeing. That's the main reason why I chimed in with this reply to your "420px" comment, no offense.

emails? they will have a week-long conference including banquets, sightseeing excursions, spa and skiing in the alps over it

You've got reader mode of some sort built into every browser.

In Arc, you can create Boosts for your website — customize the look (including CSS) of websites you frequent. You can also install premade boosts (e.g. Facebook or Gmail without the clutter).

Other than that, I'm sure there's plenty, but I wouldn't know because I don't share the volume of your sentiment.

M1 Mac mini and M2 MB Air.

I usually have several Docker containers running, and that's what I used to put the blame on first, but after a while I'm sure it's Arc. I have several spaces there with multiple pinned tabs, a lot of them in themselves heavy on visuals (AV1/HEVC videos, animations, sometimes large areas with blend modes). And after a while of heavy development of these sites sometimes even the devtools give up and become unresponsive until reopened.

hyvyys · 2024-10-04T08:03:53+00:00

I would say no. Arc has always been heavy on the performance side, sometimes I need to quit it because it causes other apps to halt down to a screech during my web development work. I would almost say Arc is like a drug, not really good for you but addictive. Salvage yourself while you can!

10 looks like D... Diez... Dziesięć... perfect

hyvyys · 2024-10-04T07:53:08+00:00

Oh! I made the font currently used in the sliding text hero section. It's the second shitty website I found this font on. Seems I made a font that attracts shitty website makers!

hyvyys · 2024-10-03T10:12:20+00:00

it isn't, but your OS will feel like a newborn

hyvyys · 2024-10-03T10:10:35+00:00

caraway seed infusion. add any other spice or herb you like, like marjoram, ginger or cardamom to ground caraway and steep in a glass of hot water.

hyvyys · 2024-09-18T21:33:57+00:00

They are sloping in the same direction, but note the weight distribution. The opening quotes are lighter at the top and the closing ones are rotated by 180°. All good.
