@Seggan holy shit that's funny

is this that "built for ai" language from like a month ago

because this definitely feels like something that could come out of "tech bro" circlejerk

Honestly thought it was a joke given the fire emoji extension

Looks pretty sus

i hope it's a joke because if it is a joke it's a good one

ayo I just remembered the time that I caused a disruption in class in 2010 by creating a mass note-passing event which was supposed to be a "simulation" of twitter

or facebook or some other social mdeia platform

i don't remember which one

basically you'd write down your "tweet" (or whatever platform specific message term) and it would be passed around to anyone you @'d

and that person would read your "message", reply and pass it back

and iirc there was multiple threads at once

meaning you had multiple different conversations being sent around

good times

My Bio teacher brought us breakfast since it's the morning before the test. After I got a breakfast taco she was like "look I'm using the hot water bath as a warmer for the tacos" and I was like "and you're sure there's no E. coli left in there right" and she was like "I'm pretty sure"

Never accept food from biologists :p

@UnrelatedString yeah I was thinking last night "if Mojo🔥 can make it big Cuprous is a lock for next most-loved language" :p

Unrelated String

14:05

:þ

Rydwolf Programs

@Ginger I think it is

> Why does mojo have the 🔥 file extension?
We paired Mojo with fire emoji 🔥 as a fun visual way to impart onto users that Mojo empowers them to get their Mojo on—to develop faster and more efficiently than ever before. We also believe that the world can handle a unicode extension at this point, but you can also just use the .mojo extension. :)

throws up in mouth, and not from the e coli tacos

Rydwolf Programs

14:20

I don't get people who say self-titled's not a good album because it doesn't have a consistent sound. Like, that just means every song on it is great in a different way :p'

Oops that :p has a little something (points at its chin) oh there you go you got it

Unrelated String

aren't albums by default not concept albums

like why would it matter how cohesive an album is if it isn't actively trying to be cohesive

Rydwolf Programs

Well it's not even about whether the songs are cohesive in meaning, they just sound really different from each other at times.

Unrelated String

sylistically too though

Rydwolf Programs

@RydwolfPrograms (which I don't actually agree with that much)

Weird thing is I don't really like the sound of self-titled like, on average. But I like every song that uses it individually. Same with MCR's Three Cheers

Like my position on Three Cheers is that I don't like the album but I like every song on it

Unrelated String

lol

so. like, the experience of listening to the whole album in one sitting?

Rydwolf Programs

14:24

I guess yeah. Or if I try to imagine like, the "average" Three Cheers song I don't like it

Ginger

@RydwolfPrograms blech

Rydwolf Programs

And the songs that're closer to that sound (Fashion Statement, Jetset, To the End) are the ones I like less

Ginger

~~time to start using .🐇📦👍👍👍 for Rabbit modules~~

Rydwolf Programs

Altho Jetset might just be dragging them down I'm not a huge fan of that one

@Ginger Lame. Cuprous is gonna use an unpaired surrogate.

Looking forward to the next big tech bro language that uses combining diacritics

ZWSPlang

Ginger

I did briefly consider acquiring 🐇📦.ws for Rabbit packaging, but that's probably not a good idea :p

Rydwolf Programs

14:29

Why .ws?

Ginger

because it's one of 3 TLDs with Punycode support

Rydwolf Programs

ah

Ginger

the other two are .fm and [the other one]

Rydwolf Programs

Wait wow only three support punycode?

Ginger

IIRC yes

Rydwolf Programs

14:29

Well presumably no

Ginger

frankly all of them should

Rydwolf Programs

Since there are tons of other languages

With TLDs in those languages

Ginger

yeah, I think it's just emojis that aren't allowed :/

Rydwolf Programs

Most likely those are the only ones that support arbitrary punycode

Which they shouldn't for security reasons

ws is samoa and fm is micronesia

Interesting, they're both pacific island countries

Wonder if there's a reason those specifically support emoji domains?

Do pacific islanders use languages with emoji? :p

Ginger

I think it's because IC?AN[AN] said that gTLDs can't do unrestricted punycode, but cTLDs can do whatever because they're owned by countries

so samoa and micronesia decided it'd be a good business decision to support them

Rydwolf Programs

14:35

Time to start ICANNT, a standards body that is responsible purely for creating strange, vague requirements

Ginger

> Dotcom, dotnet, dotorg... as well as all those .ninja and .guru domain extensions -- they're gTLDs, bound by ICANN rules. That is to say, they won't be allowed to register Emoji Domains until some international body yields to the march of progress.

While this might change in the future, for now, ICANN, the governing body of internet domain names, has banned the practice.

Apparently, while they allow all kinds of weird unicode characters in domain names, they don't think emoji are a valid form of communication.

> If you're interested, you can read a brief history of Emoji Domains, but the short story is that a ccTLD (country top level domain) like .ws, as the official designated registry partner of the government of Western Samoa, is, like, a sovereign entity.

from xn--i-7iq.ws/#tlds

@RydwolfPrograms or ICANCANN, a standards body responsible for doing funny dances

Rydwolf Programs

This is what I got the first time I went to this site

Ginger

ಠ_ಠ

~~it's trying to tell you something~~

~~unfortunately I don't speak Samoan and can't understand it~~

might get 🐇🩳.ws, use it as a link shortener
