  tomman
  frg_Away: dom.webcomponents.enabled now defaults to enabled, right?

  frg_Away

  tomman
  I'll be disabling Palefill then just in case
• 20:56
  tomman
  any progress on dynamic imports?
• 20:57
  tomman
  most of the testcases I can find on my logs often involved that pair: regex vomit + dynamic imports
• 20:57
  tomman
  (fortunately ANN only requires regex)
• 20:59
  tomman
  download.lineageos.org this now loads too (regex)
• 21:01
  tomman
  github.com/1j01/janitorial-android yay, this now works too~!

  tomman
  that one failed because of ??=
• 22:42
  tomman
  now it goes further
• 22:43
  tomman
  the page loads ~15MB of JS vomit, then instead of a blogpost I get a... "something went wrong" message
• 22:44
  tomman
  wrapped inside some React (what else?!) exceptions
• 22:44
  tomman
  one has this: "An invalid or illegal string was specified"
• 22:44
  tomman
  ...this again!
• 22:44
  tomman
  but what does it mean this time?
• 22:47
  tomman
  error gets logged around this snippet: const r=performance.measure(n,{start:o,end:i})
• 22:50
  tomman
  that error message can literally mean anything, from a syntax error to a wrong/broken string parameter being passed
• 22:50
  tomman
  yay
• 22:54
  tomman
  yeah, I vote for "broken parameter being passed", but good luck debugging a ~6MB one-liner

  IsambardPrince
  Microsoft Azure?
• 23:23
  IsambardPrince
  The electric company changed to Azure because of corruption and now vomits up corrupted Chromium nonsense.

  So I went back to a paper bill and I told the woman on the phone it's because their new site doesn't work in my browser anymore.
