PHP-UP-2026 will make uploading files to nextcloud slighly more unreliable
Perhaps it is because the main concern of many developers is not to load a full stylesheet, but only the classes they currently need?
I'm trying to understand why some websites use some Javascript to check if the user has Dark Mode switched on, instead of just using CSS?

"Hosted = Hostile"
-- @GIFmodel at finnissage of her exhibition "online since 1996" in Sindelfingen
btw, updating Hosted https://hosted.z21.web.core.windows.net/ this August, I had to dive into new services like this. I noticed how popular the promise of "forever" has become. FREE and FOREVER has replaced FREE
What's crypto/AI's "forever" in the astronomical years? I'd say 3 months.
Not to mention that "free" is usually 10$ a month.
Except Worcester Source
Closed source is dead, open source is dead, source is dead.

Recap (3/3) Last month, net art pioneer @GIFmodel 's workshop at The Photographers' Gallery in London explored how we might engage with the early web without reducing it to an object of nostalgia, by engaging with archived websites up close and learning to read the material through the technical and cultural conditions of a particular moment in time.
The event took place as part of 🌐I Miss the Internet, a day of workshops, talks and performances exploring how internet memory, nostalgia and platform power shape our understanding of the web’s past, present and future.
The workshop "A Day in One Terabyte of Kilobyte Age. Last Updated April 27, 2009." offered participants the opportunity to explore the early web through the interface of the GeoCities Research Institute, an ongoing digital art and archiving project that explores, preserves and showcases early web vernacular culture using a massive dataset of rescued GeoCities websites, under the guidance of Olia, keeper of the archive.
The day began with a short introduction to web history, methodologies for web history research and, in particular, the notions of “Small, Weak and Stupid” as a productive and respectful approach to the digital vernacular.
Participants were then invited to investigate thousands of webpages mistakenly dated “Last Updated April 27, 2009” during the archiving process. Rather than relying on distant reading or algorithmic analysis, participants immersed themselves in the material, reconstructing the histories of these pages through close observation, memory, and interpretation, asking: How do we recognise the age of a website? What makes something feel “old” online? And what kinds of knowledge emerge when we slow down and read the web on its own terms?
Thank you to everybody who participated ❤️
