When in the world did I put a DASH between "me" and "an"???? Typing is weird

- and I miss the fun of it! That's one of those things I'm considering doing when I get the 'site back up and updated again, it's like having a mail box near my website home!
Going to get back to updating it all, see ya
- I'm going through a lot right now so I haven't been here + I don't like social media. I do like sending comments on Neocities but I do love that I got an ability to send pictures and videos here
....Maybe even I could talk to you through e-mail? Been starting to do e-mails more (cont)
I get'cha, it is fun to joke but there's too many mean people in the world.... it's not cool! I just love the name "Wacky" and when I say it, I do me-an it with good intent as well as it's just funny to say :)))
Might come back to this thread; whatever it's called here and there, (cont)
- So many websites that depend on libraries..... or even just to load the page.......... and that's why I don't want to use libraries!!!! But again, don't get me wrong, I bet there's good things you can do with them and I hear it can make things easier
Might take the time to learn those 'ventually -
I don't like all the Javascript in YouTube's embed system either :(
And that's why I use this, whoever put this together is super cool!
github.com/paulirish/lite-youtube-embed
I know YouTube's embed could be better..... but I could probably say the same for the whole web at this point (cont)
Whaaaat? What a world we live in!
Good to know! ;)
I like that idea of multiple names, it's not as if one person can *only* have *one* name, we're all people that have our own perspective..... names are just something we made up
I wish every browser just had a feature, or a button that says "Update HTML!", "Update Javascript!", "Update CSS!"
......The world would be so great
I love <tables>
There's all these new things that are in EMCAScript 6 and higher and same with CSS I'd love to use..... the only problem is if I use this, what happens to this browser before this version and how about this browser! And...... yeah, it's tough :(
(cont)
I wish the web just had better compatibility?
Because new CSS and JS stuff won't work on older browsers unless you update them, I'm also the crazy person who wants things to run at least on one version of Internet Explorer
(cont)
- that does just what it needs to do than me having to import a whole Javascript file that takes up more storage just to make said thing work rather than having one file that doesn't depend on anything but JS itself
But I might learn JQuery in the future.... I don't know
I might be a little too crazy on wanting to optimize things but..... I just want my web pages to be less than 500 KB or 1 MB if I can absolutely do it!
Thinking about at least giving frameworks a go just to try them out..... JQuery for example, I prefer making a dedicated script - (cont)
And I'm talking about websites that take more than..... five or TEN MEGABYTES TO LOAD! Not only storage but also performance!....
Yup, we do live in an age now where we can download 1-2 MB super fast.... but when people over-do it, it really makes me miss how websites originally were

An extension for Visual Studio Code called "Blur Markup Language" https://bml-lang.org/ It's a javascript library I heard, you can write a sentence with it but also have the ability to change words around and make the sentence completely change
Yeahhh! I just saw something a while back called 'Blur Markup Language' and I thought..... "I got my own language????"
That's cool!
My thing with frameworks is..... storage. There's websites out there that use *too many frameworks* and scripts and....... it doesn't end up well

Sonic Neo was a member of a website called "Sonic Beyond", around the times of 2004.... it was just one of those random old websites I love My archive of it: http://radicalblur.neocities.org/archive/web/sonicbeyond/ Internet Archive: http://web.archive.org/web/20040615205545/http://www.sonicbeyond.tk/
Getting reminded of this guy all of a sudden!
Talking in my thoughts right now..... I'm making up all these names
Since one of them was "HTML Hooligan", I was thinking of something with 'hyper' in the name..... 'hyper-space neo...... robotnik?', 'hyper-text hooligan'..... okay I'm making up ridiculous names
'Wacky' just.... works
..........Could I just call you 'wacky'? I don't know, I just like that
I know the work bench's where you live but..... it just fits as a name
I could call you 'hooligan' because that's what you go by..... but it's kinda as if I'm saying "YOU HOOLIGAN!!"
Oh wait.... your name's Neo Géo now
- Ooh there's a plus button where I can add another post! I just respect the use of tables, even in this day and age
.....What was it? Yeah..... Local Fox's website uses tables!
www.localfox.dev
Going to check out some archives of the wacky bench!
- Wonder how you're using tables on mobile to make things line up justttt right, I think tables can have a percentage width; "width: 80%" which takes up almost the whole page rather than it being a fixed size
A picture of Tails I was drawing for an e-mail.... might put it online on my 'site eventually. I'm guarding my TV and my old computer! ......And the program just randomly crashed out of nowhere, that's barely happened to me before
I'm telling ya..... this is why I ALWAYS use 'CTRL + S' for every EXTREMELY-SUBTLE change I make!
There's times I've tried to do the *fancy CSS* stuff but it just doesn't work out, I love tables because they're compatible with EVERYTHING. I * still * don't get why they got rid of the whole '<div align>' thing, I guess they did find better ways.... better standards but not sure about that -
Me too ;)
I want to start making some pages on my 'site more unique instead of the same background, I want that art again of "how about I put this gif here?" because why not?

Thanks! I'm excited to see yours evolving too!
.....Got ideas for my About page, gonna start!!!!
Do you use tables to template out your website? I know you used them at one point with the early versions of the bench, and when you first started
I think I get what'cha mean by "1.0 sites" but at the same time, not sure?
This is one that inspires me

And when I talk about automating things, I don't do it *too much* to where the computer's doing all the work and I'm not being creative; ....for example, the evil robots out there.... y'know what I mean
I'm not gonna let robots make art for me!
Here's an example! .....You also get a sneak peek of what the 'site's going to look like eventually
Last comment, the alt text there has some really cool helpful links since this character limit is REALLY starting to bug me!
Screenshot of couple of my HTML snippets in my code editor that let me make presets for code I write often For my updates, it can print out the current day and year without me having to look over my computer's clock and write it all manually..... aghhhh But nope, not anymore! Links to what some of the custom properties here mean: What these user defined snippets are: https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/editing/userdefinedsnippets Code that makes the time format prettier, it uses 24 Hour format; Military Time compared to 10:07 PM: https://mybyways.com/blog/vs-code-snippet-to-insert-formatted-date-and-time Thankful for this person for spending the time making this!
- code that I write often. For example, my updates page, I gotta write what day it is, what the number of the update is as well as the other elements that're there
But this automates that for me! I don't mind writing by hand most of the time but this makes it less stressful!
Alt text explains more
Awesome! I use VS Code too, I NEED live editing
So I recommend using what they call 'snippets' sometimes

Video on custom, user snippets:

These have helped me SO MUCH, with the small things like adding an ID or Class to an element, to making presets for -
.....I still appreciate the wind chimes I have near the door of my backyard right now
Gotta remember for next house if I ever move, I'm KEEPING THEM UP!
