New av made by a cute generator. I'm not a fan of circle avatars, so I post-edited mine. (redraft, now with 100% more picture) http://charat.me/profile/create/

@maple The neighboring outlet is making the same face I'm making.

Good to know I'm not imagining the unusually huge temperature swing, & maybe good to know I've got at least another 3 days of it I have to endure. I'm about halfway between those dots at the bottom that say "Datil" and "Socorro." ❄️

@zac I remember just wasting time in my college's NeXT computer lab watching InnerSpace savers.

I spent the last few hours playing with some color tools that together let me choose page link colors both complementing the text & background /and/ conforming to the WCAGs by the W3C Web #Accessibility Initiative. #a11y

@Phorm They forget where Doom got his doctorate.

Can it please not go from a decent Autumn to a Winter storm that rains a fine icy mist? I really don't like my windshield suddenly icing over mid-commute despite wipers going full.

@tahajin Oh wow, yeah. :/

And your design doesn't rely on JavaScript for content, presentation, or navigation? That alone puts you in the first class of awesome! :3

@tahajin It is indeed a very good start. That looks sweet!

I don't have much of an eye for design, but I spent the weekend toying with an "old & worn parchment scrolls" website theme. Here's my test page: http://files.thornton2.com/test/index.html

I needed to do something like this because, though I've got CSS 2 pretty nailed down, I'm very rusty with CSS 3.

@tahajin I'm interested.

@tahajin That is awesome! :3

@ctrlaltdog@chitter.xyz I think I still have a business customer using cables in that condition.

I forgot it's spooky month, & we're supposed to choose scary names. It's not my thing, but it seems the scary name "MS FrontPage Server Extensions" is still available.
