Probably time to look into replacing Rutabaga (the Lenovo IdeaPad with 2G of RAM and 32G of eMMC disk). I was using it to look up some instructions for something I was doing on another machine. One link opened YouTube in another tab and immediately froze the machine. After a reboot, I went back in. The next link opened a tab full of #JavaScript. The #JabbaShit, predictably, suc… -

@musicman @geniusmusing That’s mostly #Node.js, which is a somewhat outdated fork of Chrome’s V8 engine. Considering that the browser is the least secure part of modern computers, and the #JavaScript engine is a key part of that insecurity, it is up to each person to decide whether to accept the risk. Personally, I’m willing to accept Node, but only in a completely sepa… -

I used to use the #QueryPath library. It is for #PHP what #jQuery is for #Javascript, allowing you to target #HTML elements, attributes, etc. using #CSS selectors. https://github.com/technosophos/querypath https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/library/os-php-querypath/ http://querypath.org -

In general, using #JavaScript this way is despicable enough that I'm in favor of visiting them regularly (with JS turned off) to repeatedly demonstrate its ineffectiveness. -

@musicman @strypey Also, in the process of reading about it, I came across https://nu.federati.net/url/266568 [wapo]
Turn off #JavaScript / #JabbaShit and their “turn off your adblocker” garbage won’t interfere.
There are still a number of places where I saw “underfunded and ineffective”, but this is someone that worked there (possibly during the time when Trump is said to have shut down PRT). -

Wow. #sonTwo, who turned from the #Unix administration (local college course taught using #Linux and #FreeBSD) and C++ (local college course using Windows IDE) to theater and photography when he was in high school, suddenly finds himself needing to become acquainted with #JavaScript. -

If I get TME* this week, I'll set up a #Friendica instance for !fnetworks ... membership is only available to people with currently active Federati accounts. I was going to set up #Pleroma, but the PleromaFE interface has too much #JavaScript / #JabbaShit piled up ... It causes my browsers to repeatedly pop up warnings about a hung script.

Note: this is hosted on WIX, so I had to disable styles in order to view the article text. (I suppose there's some #JavaScript / #JabbaShit that re-enables viewing and scrolling, but I'm not about to turn on #JS for a #WIX site.) -

Perhaps because #Javascript is usually deployed by web designers, not software engineers or sysadmins. Designers who are given with minimal to no maintenance budget, if they're even retained by the client after they deliver a website design. In practice, JS is a hot mess of known bugs and security holes, running on your browser without you knowledge or consent (unless you use #NoScript etc).
