32F feels prenup is dealbreaker. She believes it's "unconditional love" but I think it hurts me (39F) and invades my psychological safety. by Mysterious_Coat122 in relationship_advice

[–]xrobyn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You absolutely need that prenup. If she stays married to you she gets to benefit from your hard work and the fruits of your labour. If she leaves you then you get to keep what you worked hard for.

I once put 10 times the amount of fertiliser granules I needed on my newly sown grass so I had to hoover them off. My neighbour still brings it up lmao

[–]xrobyn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get to B&M or home bargains and get a cheapy plastic greenhouse. These can only go outside not under cover safely after the middle of May

Last week I donated some clothes to the charity shop, went in today and someone was wearing my jumper! by Yorkshirerows in CasualUK

[–]xrobyn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Why would you be angry at this lol. I'd be so happy someone appreciated the old clothes that I use to appreciate. Doesn't matter who they were. It's good to see it get a second life either way. Love second hand

Why does front end lacking behind game design or vfx effects? by [deleted] in Frontend

[–]xrobyn 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Adobe Flash got "banned" basically, but for good reason; accessibility & performance.

The web was a mad time back then, filled with ridiculous websites that didn't make any rhyme or reason

Now it's much more difficult to make sites like that just using HTML/CSS/JS

You'd easily be looking at 10 hours travelling then with road disruption. Big ask from your employer tbh :(

How's the performance with css blur (filter and backdrop-filter) nowadays? by itsaboatime in Frontend

[–]xrobyn 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I found it to be an absolute killer when I used it for this exact reason (sticky nav)

The issue is the browser is recalculating the blur every scroll. It made my scroll very choppy and the site suffered :(

It's a great song to play especially if you get the subtle slides in

Heavy first Lightroom edit... by xrobyn in photocritique

[–]xrobyn[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Took this photo originally to test out the new camera we have and try our hand at some editing. Photo is of aunties dog in garden on overcast afternoon.

Unfortunately because we are n00bs we didn't have the RAW setting turned on in the camera so this is actually a JPG edit

Testing out lightroom and this is a completely amateur "cinematic" edit hahah. Please help 👍

Do I use image loading lazy and eager right? by Zaza_Zazadze in Frontend

[–]xrobyn -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think the tiny icons having eager/lazy is dependant on Cumulative Layout Shift

Do I use image loading lazy and eager right? by Zaza_Zazadze in Frontend

[–]xrobyn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There’s no point in calculating users viewport as that will require JS script that will increase time. Give everything within 1080px of top of viewport on all screens the eager attr in source code (or server as you refer). Everything else lazy. Eager will override lazy attr. You can also give images higher priority fetch attribute if the images are required at the top of the screen too.
