Nifty little tool written in C for transferring secrets (or files) between devices, embedding QR codes into source code, and just generating QR codes for various use cases

Show HN: Gradually Loading Web Fonts

Gradually loading web fonts PostCSS plugin that eliminates FOUT. Size-for-size substitution, alternative to Fontaine and similar "stretching" solutions that are capable of only providing approximate dimensions.

Could you please it put it in the store? Or add to brew?

I'm on mobile right now, can't inspect how they did the web fonts. Is it JS-based, or they used something similar to this https://github.com/Y2Z/invisible-ink?

So true. Monolith is using libraries made by Mozilla for their Rust-driven browser engine (which I believe, never happened to be). I really would love for it to be a part of some browser one day, the demand is clearly there. Nobody likes to have a file+folder abomination on their drive, or some shady formats like .webarchive

MHTML support is planned, there's a couple of other problems that need to be resolved first, but it's a good format for archiving, been requested many times

It's only logical. Attractive people use apps and social skills to sleep with multiple other attractive people, while unattractive people masturbate and refuse to sleep with other unattractive people.

Those are garbage. Stick with HILTI, Metabo, Fein, Festool. Or Japanese-made Makita, as the last resort.

If APNG couldn't pick up steam and get widespread adoption, not sure how this will. But hopefully I'm wrong.

Funnily, that's how I made myself remember that. Without knowing about Ken's idea.
