TIL that Animated AVIFs make lightweight videos

Embeding a video in a markdown post is not that easy. AVIF turns videos into lightweight animated images.

Demi-sel

Hier au souper — au dîner — l'aîné annonce qu'il va faire une demi sèche. Je décroche. Le brouhaha devient un souffle. Je glisse. Je prends une bouchée. Je reviens. La sauce est bonne, pas trop grasse mais gourmande. Sauce, beurre. Demi-sèche, demi-sel. Hello ! Je suis là et ici. En même temps. Là : je bavarde, mange et gronde le chat. Ici : je me souviens que Houellebecq m'a donné du mal. Comme Camus. Mais il est mort. On ne dit pas du mal des morts. Alors c'est […]

🥳 New Kitten¹ Release

Fixes:

• Actually fixes the plain HTMX connection state handlers. They’re now stable and exactly match the behaviour of the Alpine.js handlers in plain HTMX (this was not trivial https://codeberg.org/kitten/app/commit/b53bb6d02c568b7119ae2851596943fad78a0ffa due to a limitation in HTMX https://github.com/bigskysoftware/htmx/issues/2131).

Enjoy!

A couple of weeks ago, we launched https://astra-index.com

It’s a multi-format narrative put together by @distantmedium.bsky.social, with collaboration from @mysterycryptid, https://bsky.app/profile/nickelbank.bsky.social, https://bsky.app/profile/dilogical.bsky.social, and https://bsky.app/profile/nitrosparxx.bsky.social

I built the website for it, and I’m very proud to say it’s an entirely person-coded site, with its fair share of flaws, and rough edges. It’s very special project to me… 1/2
