🆕 blog! “A small collection of text-only websites”
A couple of years ago, I started serving my blog posts as plain text. Add .txt to the end of any URl and get a deliciously lo-fi, UTF-8, mono[chrome|space] alternative.
Here's this post in plain text - https://shkspr.mobi/blog/2025/12/a-small-collection-of-text-only-websites.txt

Recently, we talked about #libid3tag and our intent to make a new release. So far, we have a preview of some changes that have already been made in the latest main:
- Mojibake fixes for #UTF-16 (no BOM) encoded fields.
- Some code cleanups, including warning fixes.
- Compatibility with #CMake > 4.0 (we now require CMake 3.10+)Meanwhile, we are also working on #Doxygen documentation to better document the library too, so quite a few things are going on for libid3tag right now.

#メモ #文字コード #ANSI #JIS #Shift_JIS
#UTF-8 で書かれたテキストファイルをShift_JIS に変えたいのだけど、Notepad++でどのようにしたら良いのか分からなかった。「エンコード」の「文字セット」で「日本語 > Shift-JIS」を選ぶと日本語が文字化けしてしまう。
試しに「エンコード」の「文字セット」で「ANSI に変換」を選んだら文字化けせず、右下の文字コード表示も「ANSI」に変わった。もしかして…と検索して、今日、初めて知った。#Windows のbatファイルをNotePad++で作成する際、最初はどうしてもデフォルトのUTF-8で保存してしまって、実行すると文字化けしてて、Shift_JIS で保存しなければいけなかったんだ…と直そうとしても方法が分からなくて、TeraPadの「文字/改行コード指定保存」を使っていたのだけど、NotePad++で「ANSI に変換」の後に保存すれば良かったのだな…と。

Very cool, copy-paste UTF text from, e.g., Wikipedia, get Unicode.
Sanskrit अश्विन्
can be in your HTML as

Why does this PHP construct:
normalizer_normalize( $search_string, \Normalizer::FORM_D );
Convert ÖÖÖ to OOO, but keeps ÅÅÅ as ÅÅÅ ... WTF?! 🤔

Diese Jahr ging die Weihnachtsspende von @sweetgood an den Umwelttreuhand-Fonds (UTF) (https://umwelt-treuhandfonds.de/). Dieser finanziert die Anwält:innen von Klimaaktivist:innen, die aktuell massiven Repressionen ausgesetzt sind.
Weitere 50€ gingen an den KUEÖ e.V., also direkt an die @AufstandLastGen

Just lost 3 hours to the charset encoding inferno: my source code is in UTF-8 but the library I use assume 1 byte per char.
Add to that, some font have only a subset of char.
You get a nice mix of UTF-8 char that may render nicely and or not (depending if the first byte is a char present in the font)."Sometimes I wonder what's worse between charset encoding and timezones." says the guy who makes clocks and displays...

So my former colleague @jstepien is a brillant engineer / speaker / teacher, but the thing he'll be internet famous for is how websites can't handle his name 🤷♂️. https://wtf-8.stępień.com is really funny, though.

Did you know that apparently completely different strings are interpreted as identical by some tools?
This is due to redundant UTF-8 encodings of the same Unicode characters.
