    Getting a little fed up: I cannot easily share on WP

    With the “death of Twitter,” and social media in general, I’d like to take back my content. It’s just not currently easy to share content to my blog.

    Well, this is interesting. Elon Musk updated his Twitter profile to include the domain x.com. Upon visiting the link, the site resolves to twitter.com. A quick whois check didn’t reveal much except that the domain was registered via GoDaddy and it’s not up for renewal until sometime in 2026.

    I suppose, all good things must come to an end. Additionally, I know–first hand–the cost of using Open AI’s ChatGPT, which is what powers AI Assistant.

  • News page added back to website

    News page added back to website

    The News page has been added back to the website. Some news sources were removed as they often produced RSS errors or the headlines were simply too bombastic or misleading by my standards.

    On the tech side of it, I did have to add some JavaScript to the native WordPress RSS widgets, so that I links opened in a new tab, etc., below is the code snippet:

    <script>
    // Open link in new tab
    let link = document.querySelectorAll('.wp-block-rss__item a')
    link.forEach((e) => {
        e.setAttribute("target", "_blank")
    })

    // Add inline style to the <ul>
    let news_list = document.querySelectorAll("ul.wp-block-rss")
    news_list.forEach((e) => {
        e.setAttribute("style", "list-style-type:none; margin: 1rem auto;");
    })

    // Make the title inline
    let wp_block_rss_item_title = document.querySelectorAll('div.wp-block-rss__item-title')
    wp_block_rss_item_title.forEach((e) => {
        e.setAttribute("style", "display:inline-block!important;");
    })

    // Style the publish date
    let wp_block_rss_item_publish_date = document.querySelectorAll('.wp-block-rss__item-publish-date')
    wp_block_rss_item_publish_date.forEach((e) => {
        e.setAttribute("style", "display:inline-block!important; font-weight:bold; margin:0 8px;")
    })
</script>
