#introduction I'm Morgan, my main account is @raphaelmorgan and I'm a transmasc programmer! I've finished very few projects bc ADHD, but I can make games (in Unity or just with JavaScript, vanilla or node.js), Minecraft plugins, websites, and more! I'm also a fan of Star Trek (especially DS9), Magic: the Gathering and TTRPGs (especially DND and Lancer)
I also post art and stuff on my main but this is a techie account!

Oh also I'm disabled and very vocal about it
Programming is my dyslexia superpower and one of the few things I can do the longest/most without physical pain
I would be building robots but God nerfed me with arthritis and poor

naming my request and response objects "rq" and "rs" just to feel something

oh so apparently the reason we're not supposed to use Element.innerHTML is that people can run code from ur website (and like do fetches and whatever)??? y'all we can do that anyway with the console, you should be making it harder for running code client side to fuck anything up, not just avoiding innerHTML so that ppl can't run code client side 🤦‍♂️

ftr I wouldn't be using "ul.firstChild" in any real application of this I just forgot to make the li a variable lol

finally figured out how to easily make the line someone's currently in into a list
now I'm gonna find out this is insecure af or something
(ignore all the errors, ya boy can't write things)

cw: alt text is transcription of code so may not be entirely screenreader friendly, I have no idea how to make it so

and additionally this

dyslexia is just being good at programming until you have to use a word with an m in it

imagine someone replaced a very popular browser extension with one that uwuifies every webpage
https://uwuifier.com/

and like, let ppl just permanently claim a domain for free
(and then obvs prevent other ppl from tryna use that domain)
this would require a site as well prolly, where ppl can register these domains and access the dns
the TLD of said website could even be .dns bc that's not a current TLD listed here https://data.iana.org/TLD/tlds-alpha-by-domain.txt

wanna create a browser that recognizes a bunch of other tlds as long as the domain is in a certain database
