There you go @sil I have been guilted into finally blogging on my personal website. At this rate I might even do so again in 2019!

Taking back the web <3

@korruptor subscribed! so you have to post more now :)

@sil you're a hard task master, man :)

@sil I'm only letting you off because I agree with the principal :P

@sil am I being daft? Does as Days Pass By have an RSS feed? Can't find it and Thunderbird is unhappy

@korruptor Sure! kryogenix.org/days/feed -- it seems to be correctly linked for machine reading in the header (validator.w3.org/feed/check.cg finds it ok), so not sure why TB fails...

@sil yeah I tried that at the time. TB says it's not a valid feed and the validators I pushed it through also complained about a few things.

@korruptor have poked it. I was using // without a scheme for URLs, and I think Thunderbird might not like that, so I've just set everything to be https now, and that ought to fix it.

@sil does indeed. I thought RSS required a schema for all URIs, did that change?

@korruptor I think it does, and Thunderbird is actually spec-compliant here but other stuff handwaves it ;)

@sil yeah, browsers haven't cared for a while. Fair enough, thanks for that!
