I'm thinking about replacing the "people" section in my links page with a more traditional button wall because it's taking up too much space! I'll move the descriptions to a different page

You could integrate them into each title attribute of the buttons' (A)nchors, subsequent to respective titles

I'm not a big fan of title attribute because it's not universal; that is, it's not compatible with every browser believe it or not. For example, textual browsers ignore them.

I'm not that happy about Mahou stealing Delicious Party's rightful spot in the movie but they gotta promote Mahou 2 I guess. Videogames seem like an odd theme for Wonderful, but maybe it's to give them enemies they can actually fight? I trust the CGI will be good; Toei has always delivered there, and I like how the CGI is more on model than, say, in the Mahou CGI short. Either way, let's look forward to it!

Although if I can be completely honest with you, I wish they'd stop doing crossovers in the main movies...

Honestly, I'm okay with cameos in the mainline movies, but do sometimes wish crossovers weren't a thing outside of All Stars... well I guess that's hypocritical since I loved the Snow Princess movie. Video games seemed randomed to me too, but it's worth seeing the cute games Yuki, Komugi, and Daifuku get to play in the trailer. Does this mean Daifuku's a midseason I wonder? Poor DeliPuri girls, but I am-

I will watch it, to see what they can do with it. I didn't like Mahou because it seemed like they had all this worldbuilding and INCREDIBLE character designs and did... nothing with it?

As for Daifuku, I think everyone's expecting him and Satoru to become cures, but it's becoming more unlikely by the second. Perhaps Daifuku will be a movie exclusive. Toy leaks indicate more of a focus on Nico-sama; who knows if SHE will become the fifth?

Bring back romanticism.

Added the kindle 3.0 browser to the list of browsers I've tested the site on and added a banner to the home page. Maybe it'll stay, maybe not. We'll see.

I love your "Any browser" page. I just test my pages in Dillo and textual browsers like links, lynx, w3m, etc., but your dedication to maximized compatibility is remarkable, and possibly singular.

I don't understand why people use third party image hosts on Neocities.

Neocities CDN is a bit lacking, it goes nuts requesting anything above 6+ hq images if you are not particularly close to their servers (Any person that isn't in North America)

With all of my photo galleries I would exceed the 1gb limit in a few months even with thumbnails alone. Though I do use it for everything other than photos.

For capacity (inter alia) remitment of 5bux/mo is actually a much easier option, esp. considering that I host a mirror here....

@ongezell I understand, but people are using cdns for icons, buttons, and the like... is it really worth it?

@saint-images yeah your use case is completely understandable. To think that without a 3rd party host we wouldn't have your photography...

dunno, I myself host all the assets of my main page on github (It loads REALLY fast) and on top of that I also use cloudflare. it works for me, whenever I want to add new stuff I just place the files on a local folder and push it to the repo

Gotta prepare something for the glorious 20th anniversary of Yume Nikki.

Yume Nikki (and maybe Yume 2kki?) playthrough + analysis? I played the game a couple years ago... but I always thought it was about being a hikki and looking out into the world without being able to escape. Great game. There's so many ways to interpret it

It's redolent of its age, but drives me nuts. Personally, I'm thankful for orthoepic reforms.

English is certainly less wild and wooly than it was, but the French would rightly sneer at this notion that our (frankly demented) orthography is especially consistent.

I tried to read Canterbury Tales in its (semi-reconstructed) Middle English years ago. Your longanimity exceeds mine by leagues.

It's really interesting to compare the evolution of our languages across the ages, I think the earliest de facto Portuguese text I found was from the twelfth-century and it's completely readable, especially if you also know a bit of Spanish. I would say that Galician it's pretty close to what Portuguese was at that time, I mean, we were Galician-Portuguese after all

and even before that we had vulgar Latin which is also surprisingly understandable

What's also remarkable is the persisting mutual intelligibility of those, along with Fala and Eonavian. Then compare them (and esp. their grammar) to Catalan....!

Considering that its incomparably immane lexicon eventuated mostly from amalgamation and agglutination, the convoluted developments of English diachrony seem almost modest. After the slow merger of Anglo-Saxon with Anglo-Norman, vast lexical influxions from 20+ languages over not quite a millennium resulted in less inflectional reduction than that of simpler languages (as Mandarin) over half that span.

All latin based languages are in a certain way highly mutually intelligible, at least textual form. with the exception of Romanian I think, that became a Slavic romance language of sorts. I was reading about this interesting constructed language called Romance Neolatino, It sounds soooooooo good and it's highly intelligible for romance speakers. I hope it gets some attention

Admittedly, Neolatin is appealing and agreeably dulcet -- much better than Esperanto! Romanian's grammar (notwithstanding enclitic definite articles) and verbal vocabulary are impeccably romance, but that Slavic influence in its nominal vocab. and phonology is unshakable. Nota bene: Romanians only fully jettisoned Cyrillic a century ago.

Your mention of mutual intelligibility reminded me of an amusing moment from "Sleuth," which I recently reviewed. Late in the third act, Michael Caine proffers a clue in Italian to frantic Laurence Olivier, who despises Italians but is conversant in Latin, by which he fenziedly deciphers the hinting epigram by tracing its cognates. >:P
