Fun factoid: XAML's PathGeometry is _basically_ SVG.

So we can in fact do almost anything in either XAML or a web app.

True, I don't have to respond.

Also true: I neither corrected you nor told you that you were doing it wrong.

🤷

Care to correct the record?

This a spurious complaint or just a "baiters gonna bait" sort of thing ?

🦗

Apologies if I've been one of the people to help create this impression.

I find this happens about equally across ecosystems.

Of course, I'm a PowerShell + Linux person.

(🤔 does that mean I count twice?)

Looking forward to seeing the results of your experiment.

Ever wanted to install VSCode extensions with #PowerShell?

I also think it should be trivial to list the different lexicon record types a user has.

It may not need to be surfaced in the UI, but it makes a lot of sense to exist as an xrpc endpoint.

Lacking this basic limits the ecosystem outside of BlueSky itself.

I think this should be as open as can be, and should be represented by a simple pairing:

Lexicon type/aturi and view URL.

That is, if I want to say:

All of my markpub.at are at example.com/foo/bar/baz, I should be able to.

Doing this would open the door to an ecosystem of views.

They say "no such thing as a free lunch".

This may be true.

Just 🤷 didn't expect last week's free lunch to cost me 4 days of sick and counting.

🤦

🫂 You too, huh?

Best of luck finding the right fit 🤞

🙏 let me know if whatever you find has more headcount

Standard Site Working Group Meeting Notes 3/29/26

On March 29th, we held an in-person meeting to check in with the community and discuss potential updates to the standard.site spec.

A huge thank you to @cozylittle.house for putting together a detailed summary of everything we discussed.

Take your time and feel better.

I've also been under the weather.

I think it was attempting image selection.

Possibly related: looks like webp isn't supported 🤷

offtopic | James Brundage | MVP | Offprint Random thoughts about random things.

Seems to be working now!

Now if only I could figure out how to add tags...

Until then, enjoy another #offtopic post.

Fair.

I think I have another more unique phobia, and that is the fear that stuff I build will be used to do _more_ horrible things.

🤷 Occupational Hazard 🤷

(this is why cybersecurity and ethics in computing are important)

@offprint.app currently seeing a 500 error when I go to the dashboard. Tried logging in from a different in private tab. Same deal. Any idea what's up?

Does that phobia have a name?

Is there an official "phobia" name for the fear of accidentally cross-posting content into the wrong app / text thread?

If so, what is it?

If not, what do you think it should be called?

Either way, I suffer from this fear daily.

Until PowerShell 8... But, at the rate version numbers are moving, we've got ~3-4 years to solve that one. 😂😞

You can always call it "pwsh-latest". Just might not be accurate, per se, if they haven't updated in a while.

But adding your own little banner message doesn't sound _too_ bad. And/also, multi-pwsh installs _should_ be easier to pave over.

`multi-pwsh install latest` · Issue #31 · Devolutions/multi-pwsh It would be wonderfully ideal if we could install the latest PowerShell, without the user having to know which PowerShell version is the latest.

Mostly :-)

I'd love a "latest" option.

Did my GitHub duty and filed an issue:

github.com/Devolutions/...

Fair. I'm actually suggesting being able to install "dotnet" tools without dotnet.

Because it's the closest nuget package format to "just an app".

Fantastic!

Almost always easier to solve our own wishes than hope some large company will solve them for us.

As a .net tool?

If so, please link me so I may update the examples and kick the tires on the Pi.

Standard.site - One schema. Every platform. Standard.site provides shared lexicons for long-form publishing on AT Protocol. Making content easier to discover, index, and move across the ATmosphere.

@jimray.locket.computer I would love to talk to you about #AtProto, standard.site, and strategy.

May I drop into dms?

Thanks! Wasn't really intentional, was just writing docs and examples for the packaging module I'm working on and wanted a relevant .net tool to demonstrate.

Then found it didn't work on my #RaspberryPi 🤦.

Then added a disclaimer.

Release multi pwsh as a tool and I shall use it instead.

Now that's a tool I would happily install!

Also/ and, I think it should be fairly trivial to start packaging many PowerShell modules / scripts as dotnet tools.

Just still working out the kinks of how to surface things consistently.

Yes. Though, sadly, this does not work on arm. 😕

Thanks! (especially if we can get that sweet direct copy/paste from markdown).

Good news: The editor experience is solid!

Bad news: Having to painstakingly copy/paste block by block is quite the tax on time.
