I personally don't think "the internet but it's in 3D" is actually a step forward. imo it's a step back---hypertext feels higher than 3 dimensions
Now that Winnie the Pooh has joined Peter Rabbit and Benjamin Bunny in the public domain, we can make a Winnie The Pooh where Rabbit is swapped out for a rabbit in a smoking jacket send toot

Oh wait nope the {% link _path/to/file.md %} file had a future date in its date: metadata, so the file didn't exist by Jekyll's recognition. d'oh.
Nothing like going to try to publish a worldbuilding exercise from 2019 (to get it off your plate) and then discover that Jekyll won't build the site for some reason after you upgraded your build server's OS

Yeah, that's part of my anxieties about approaching my doc for ADHD screening to get things to help with focus.

And when they go on their honeymoon, will they fly on the Netherlands' flag carrier?
@SuricrasiaOnline
"Math related" is really vague and "keep in the house" makes some assumptions but I'd guess it's a flashlight that's kept in the garage or shed.

I love internet fiction
This is an old article, but it's still a good manifesto: https://palladiummag.com/2020/04/01/the-bison-sphere-manifesto/
@KittyUnpretty I don't know if https://soundcite.knightlab.com/ is maintained anymore, but I've used it in the past to provide little "click here to play" buttons or "the rain splattered across the cliff" or "fuck him!" audio snippets in the text. It's not automatic fade-in, but it's at least a button the user can click for audio.
@KittyUnpretty
From what I hear from people who work on audio in web browsers, there is no easy way, because each browser disagrees on which JS API(s) to use, half of them require a user to interact with a control before playing audio, and then you get into format support....
Any recommendations for where to host a 14-GB video file? It doesn't need a video player, but that's a bonus. Mostly just need a place where Facebook users can download it from.
@unpopop
I don't think you're going to get a response that adequately satisfies your entire Gish Gallop of questions. But I'll address one point, which is about testing of the Pfizer vaccine which is now wholly approved by the FDA: its side effects are known. They ran tests against thousands of people before obtaining the Emergency Use Authorization, and now they have data from millions of vaccine administrations. https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/vaccines/different-vaccines/Pfizer-BioNTech.html

this is the flywheel in the machinery of ethics and to define it so clearly would be both incredibly useful and incredibly dangerous
