Much of mainstream tv shows head in the direction of never adopting actually radical positions, preferring only to portray suffering under capitalism void of any viable solutions. Mark Fisher goes into this in Capitalist Realism

@limovars RIGHT!! i've noticed this too. but i was thinking maybe squid game would at least be entertaining about it. but you're right though. even severance which is a better show doesn't show any possible radical solutions at least yet. the only exceptions i can think of are star trek & sorry to bother you. one of the reasons i respect boots riley as a director is how openly communist he is

Not sure if I am looking at the right thing, but /musicofwhenever is showing Win7 styled borders for me. MX Linux / Firefox.

@thehoneypot i mean for me it's less about them being win7 styled (they are still are for me too). it's just that the custom colors i put are GONE!!

@thehoneypot like compare the thumbnail for the homepage to the ACTUAL homepage and you'll see what i mean

Oh my bad I do see what you mean. I can see on the article you set --window-background-color to the shade of red that's in the thumbnail, but I am struggling to find where that variable is then used. The inner title-bar uses --w7-w-glass. When I manually set that to --window-background-color, the colour appears, albeit not transparent but I think if you explore that hopefully you will find the fix!

Yeah got it - On the .window::before css, set background-color to --window-background-color and the custom colours (and correct transparency) appears!

@thehoneypot i can't edit that part of the css since i have the win7/98/xp stuff linked from a third party rather than directly hosted on my site. but i might see if i can download it on my computer later

i just wanted to answer a question you had on your homepage. yes you can absolutely link to other neocities. in fact there's a practice where people have small images that link to someone else's website called site buttons. hope that helps

in terms of etiquette, it's best to link to the user's landing page, which will happen automatically if you don't put anything in after the link. (like https://badgraph1csghost.neocities.org/ leads to my landing page) if people don't want you linking to their site at all, they'll tell you so on their site somewhere.

i figured out how to take an extension that's only available on vscode marketplace & install it on vscodium. apparently you just click the settings icon for the extension on vscode & download as a vsix. then go to vscodium's extensions & click the 3 dots to select "install a vsix." so that's goodbye to vscode. you started getting laggy as shit on linux lmao

When I swapped from Windows to Linux I found Proton VPN to be pretty poor, but I didn't know you couldn't pick locations in Windows anymore! I find Mullvad's Linux support to be top notch personally.

@thehoneypot that makes sense. honestly i trust mullvad more than proton. so that's not a surprise to me. the only reason i dont use mullvad is i'm kinda unemployed right now but noted

could label it "feed the dev!" $ lol nomnomnom
@lakes just to be clear i am referring specifically to mutual aid for palestine and other important causes, not promoting a gofundme for myself
@lakes but ofc if you or anyone wants to promote their own gofundmes, itโs not my site and people can do whatever they want!๐
@limovars @hhorses yeah just to be clear. limovars is correct. it wont be my own gofundme. but other people's
