an apology

i'm sorry everyone. you may recall from a recent css baby post that i made a fake window like this:

fox

eevee's web zone — Mozilla Firefox

−

×

← → ⟳ ⯃

🔒 https://eev.ee/

(website elided)

Done

however that was incredibly lazy of me. you see, the behavior you get when clicking the minimize button − is not minimizing. it is a behavior called shade, which has mostly been in kde and nextstep and other obscure window managers used by nerds.

an actual minimize button would do this

eevee @lexyeevee7/26/2023, 2:50 AM

thank you!

please don't ask me how it works, it went through so many revisions that i no longer remember

luna @lunasorcery7/26/2023, 2:52 AM

css crimes are a dark witchcraft far beyond my ability

goes back to video game disassembly

\phi @phi7/26/2023, 2:57 AM

Betrayed becuz I saw teh earlier KDE reference and I was excitedly like "I've used that!", buf turns ouf I am but a nerd. I musf now flee the country befur someone pulls up a Nerd Emoji Compilation wiff those horrible horns

eevee @lexyeevee7/26/2023, 2:58 AM

i had to edit it out because i showed some folks a preview of this yesterday and they immediately corrected me with a list of all the window managers that had shading

fluffy @fluffy7/26/2023, 3:00 AM

sorry about that

\phi @phi7/26/2023, 8:20 AM

dang
Alfo this comment led me on a rabbit hole of GUI history, starting from watching teh entirety of teh oNLine System (NLS) presentation, hehe

Balketh @balketh7/26/2023, 2:58 AM

oh my god the interaction detail.

absolutely amazing, well done.

fluffy @fluffy7/26/2023, 2:59 AM

That is really cool and you sure went above and beyond with this!

(although I think you have the "help" and "control panel" links reversed)

eevee @lexyeevee7/26/2023, 3:07 AM

whoops, fixed. also went more above and more beyond

fluffy @fluffy7/26/2023, 3:19 AM

haha nice

also I just noticed the resizable window, which I know is pretty easy to implement since it's a standard CSS thing these days but it's still a nice touch

necrose - glip @glitchedpuppet7/26/2023, 3:05 AM

hahahaha

eevee @lexyeevee7/26/2023, 3:13 AM

i love how you don't even question that this is possible hahaha

necrose - glip @glitchedpuppet7/26/2023, 3:15 AM

ive learned you are very good at making absurd things possible

@Linkshot7/26/2023, 3:05 AM

bug report: the control panel and help & support links are swapped

gwen @gwenverbsnouns7/26/2023, 3:17 AM

Plum @plumpan7/26/2023, 3:17 AM

Is it theoretically possible to get this to grab the site time from the page?

eevee @lexyeevee7/26/2023, 3:19 AM

absolutely not haha. the current time doesn't even appear anywhere

Plum @plumpan7/26/2023, 4:03 AM

I get beat time on my machine!

unarei @noa7/26/2023, 7:07 PM

can't get it from the page but you can set the time to a jpeg loaded from a server, and then use the animated jpeg standard to update the time eery minute

Gay Eminem on 9/11 @DecayWTF7/26/2023, 3:18 AM

Are Mac OS 8 and 9 for nerds?

(I guess maybe it's for retrocomputing nerds these days.)

BitGal Deluxe™@BitGal7/26/2023, 6:05 AM

Holy smokes, this is so cool!!

Charybdis 🏳️‍⚧️ (Chripes)@charybdis7/26/2023, 6:11 AM

God, this is so cool. It's insane what you can do with CSS.

Aether @Tayruu7/26/2023, 7:47 AM

I don't know where to begin with this, bravo.

shork @shork7/26/2023, 8:07 AM

the original (pre-X) Mac OS had a shade feature (there was nowhere to minimize to)

@cinna-bunny7/26/2023, 8:16 AM

this is so cool omg . i had a lot of fun exploring this thoroughly (⁠◍⁠•⁠ᴗ⁠•⁠◍⁠) appreciate u for making it

@enderlord997/26/2023, 10:53 AM

I tried it out a little too much and now it just says "(website elided)"

This is fine

D @pinstripeowl7/26/2023, 12:03 PM

incredible

@Entity7/26/2023, 2:44 PM

This is straight up so impressive, I didn't know you'd include even half the detail you did

Maddie @HunnyBon7/26/2023, 9:18 PM

A Jeb With No Name @namelessWrench2/20/2024, 6:28 PM

I very appreciate that the close buttons work

red @monoredmenace2/20/2024, 6:49 PM

it would be so funny if you made the lone minimise button also disappear like that if you hit it.

godspeed you! big animal @niss2/20/2024, 6:49 PM

god damn
