@lcamtuf I was once at a conference where the @NSAGov kindly offered phone chargers. Hard pass. 🤣

@mrdoob Ah, wait. Just read the source code. This is not technically a polyfill of `<audio>`, but more a ponyfill of the `new Audio()` API in the shape of `WebAudio`. Neat.

@KevinLozandier Thanks for being a role model to them! ✊🏿

via Echofon in reply to KevinLozandier

@mrdoob Feature detection would boil down to user-agent sniffing I guess, since Safari of course supports `<audio>` per se.

via Echofon in reply to mrdoob

@stubbornella @FluenteMe @simevidas Fully agree. The positioning will get a lot better with CSS Anchor Positioning (tabatkins.github.io/specs/css-anch…) spec’ed by @tabatkins, but I sure wish tooltips were built into HTML with proper accessibility baked in.

@rob_dodson @gauntface @Mustafa_x I’m sure @jaffathecake is trying to read your page right now in _that_ toilet stall that started it all. And failing. He’s playing the offline dino instead. I leave the rest up to your imagination.

via Echofon in reply to rob_dodson

@stubbornella @simevidas If all browser vendors agree to support them and if every single aspect of them can be styled, then a careful yes. I’d start with `<tooltip>`.

I always cringe when companies sell themselves as a family you join. You don’t - family is something you don’t choose and comes with its own baggage.

@diekus @alexey_rodionov @b1tr0t @alexainslie I just checked. It doesn’t. I saw this setting in your workshop, but it’s only in Edge Canary, not Chrome Canary.

@diekus @alexey_rodionov @b1tr0t @alexainslie Yes, both browsers show a subtle icon. For link handling, that’s currently an Edge setting: learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsof…. I think this only handles links from within other apps (like from a chat app). It still al

@pwabuilder I think I have found an Issue with it: github.com/pwa-builder/PW…. Not sure about the (periodic) background sync and shortcut warnings. It doesn’t make sense for all apps.

@passle_ @ChromiumDev The problem was mostly uncertainty of future feasibility when it comes to Android. The use cases were very clear and well understood.

@passle_ @ChromiumDev Development has been put on hold, but the feature is technically still available behind a flag. Just tried it: notification-triggers.glitch.me.

@matiasfernandez Thanks for the kind words. I’m using it still myself, and while I haven’t maintained it much, it’s still working fine for me (some quota limitations in Sheets and the dreaded stuck in “Loading” bug apart).
