  • “JS is his baby that’s all there needs to be said about the person’s motivations.”

    During these formative years of the Web, web pages could only be static, lacking the capability for dynamic behavior after the page was loaded in the browser. There was a desire in the flourishing web development scene to remove this limitation, so in 1995, Netscape decided to add a scripting language to Navigator. They pursued two routes to achieve this: collaborating with Sun Microsystems to embed the Java programming language, while also hiring Brendan Eich to embed the Scheme language.”

    I think you’re confusing the reasons behind the initial intent of JS versus what it has evolved into almost 30 years later.











  • Thanks for the feedback everyone. I actually have Proton running at 8.3 (I’m not at the computer so I’m not sure of that number is correct).

    I did try hitting single player first and it sends me into the same loop.

    I did think of something that might be causing the issue, and if I’m right, it would be a real dumb ass moment for me 🤪. I’ll check that out and try your other suggestions as well. To be continued…



  • Everything is moving so quickly these days, and the exodus from other failing sites along with the expectations of those transitioning from them is creating a crescendo that is just unrealistic.

    So many people have been working very hard to keep up with all of these new and increasing demands (and they ought to be credited for that), but what is lacking is patience for those working behind the scenes.

    They’re doing a great job, but, for God’s sake, give them some slack!
