1/8th duplex, my packets route in imperial and my cables need passing places, don't need QoS when each frame is taught to be polite and stand aside to let the other pass, they sign the guestbook before crossing layers

@codesections@fosstodon.org you have just inventing fphishing, I cannot decide if this is good or bad.

@marcus_grant@fosstodon.org Maybe, but it an educational resource can be more effective when it sticks at what it's aimed at. Could just be a chapter that says "It's always DNS" in large, friendly print.

@bw@social.lol Congrats, any efforts to lighten the Web and return it to the people are worthwhile.
I noticed that the request to https://htmlforpeople.com/assets/js/hero.js is currently serving a redirect loop but thankfully it doesn't seem to affect the site functionality.

@PeachMcD Ages ago I was looking for some books like that, as a customer asked for recommendations. They were all abominable and offensive. I think I reached out to a local Age Concern branch and asked them for suggestions, which turned out to be written for people.

@kim @dymaxion sooo much this, one of the ways I discuss this is that younger people - especially those still in school/college - often have lower risk aversion, and don't have to pay for things if they break them. As well as this they're still used to picking up an item to play with it. It's easy to lose this mentality as an adult. Sometimes I'll show someone the apps their phone came with with the attitude of "let's just play around with it". Oh look, a calculator. A calendar. A compass.

@LaF0rge What I also find bizarre is that file is effectively a public record and recognition for efforts provided. How could a legal sanction prohibit such a statement? It's effectively a statement of fact. Can a sanction go as far as to simply erase a person's bona-fide contribution to something?
