Yeah, i was aware of asciinema previous to this (long ago), but then heard a nice refresher the other day from the Linux Downtime podcast ( https://linuxdowntime.com/linux-downtime-episode-83/)...so maybe the author is

I've never realized that http status 999 was a thing. I've often used 401 to tell user something similar to "denied"...which i get is different in that "unauthorized" (for 401) is the browser telling the user

Welcome to American capitalism...where there always seems to be an inner circle or initial group of people who already got first chance at something, and then for the rest of us they simply tells us, "hey, everything is equally attaina

For me, my portable Apps phase was about 10 or so years ago...and it felt so awesome! I also thought it would be the model for the future! :-)

Its cute, but would be vastly better if the controls were a slight bit more exposed. Kudos to the developer/designer for creating something!

Agreed, one would definitely be at the mercy of the author/content creator...but I often feel like someone who is willing to offer an RSS feed probably would likely enable easier consumption of their content even if one needs to actual

You sort of, kind of, maybe just asked for roughly what RSS (Really Simple Syndication) provides...although your wish is more of a "pull", while RSS is more of a "push" in content access/distribution. :-) Don'

The concept reminds me of Vannevar Bush's Memex device/system [ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memex ] - very cool! Though, i can imagine the UX, UI would have to be very tight and deliberate, lest the user can
