Better, Stronger, Safer jQuerify Bookmarklet | Learning jQuery

Posted by jpluimers on 2022/09/06

For my link archive, the [Wayback] Better, Stronger, Safer jQuerify Bookmarklet | Learning jQuery

Via: [Wayback/Archive.is] Include jQuery in the JavaScript Console – Stack Overflow (thanks [Wayback/Archive.is] brichins!)

When you do not have jQuery installed, then the Chrome console will give you the error [Wayback/Archive.is] javascript – TypeError: $(...).children is not a function – Stack Overflow which has code to load jQuery in this gist: [Wayback/Archive.is] use jQuery in Chrome javascript console.

If this bookmarklet ever starts to fail, then I need to check out these links:

The content of the JQueryfi bookmarklet is in the below gist:


javascript:(function(){var%20el=document.createElement(%22div%22),b=document.getElementsByTagName(%22body%22)[0],otherlib=!1,msg=%22%22;el.style.position=%22fixed%22,el.style.height=%2232px%22,el.style.width=%22220px%22,el.style.marginLeft=%22-110px%22,el.style.top=%220%22,el.style.left=%2250%25%22,el.style.padding=%225px%2010px%22,el.style.zIndex=1001,el.style.fontSize=%2212px%22,el.style.color=%22#222%22,el.style.backgroundColor=%22#f99%22;function%20showMsg(){var%20txt=document.createTextNode(msg);el.appendChild(txt),b.appendChild(el),window.setTimeout(function(){txt=null,typeof%20jQuery==%22undefined%22?b.removeChild(el):(jQuery(el).fadeOut(%22slow%22,function(){jQuery(this).remove()}),otherlib&&(window.$jq=jQuery.noConflict()))},2500)}if(typeof%20jQuery!=%22undefined%22)return%20msg=%22This%20page%20already%20using%20jQuery%20v%22+jQuery.fn.jquery,showMsg();typeof%20$==%22function%22&&(otherlib=!0);function%20getScript(url,success){var%20script=document.createElement(%22script%22);script.src=url;var%20head=document.getElementsByTagName(%22head%22)[0],done=!1;script.onload=script.onreadystatechange=function(){!done&&(!this.readyState||this.readyState==%22loaded%22||this.readyState==%22complete%22)&&(done=!0,success(),script.onload=script.onreadystatechange=null,head.removeChild(script))},head.appendChild(script)}getScript(%22http://code.jquery.com/jquery.min.js%22,function(){return%20typeof%20jQuery==%22undefined%22?msg=%22Sorry,%20but%20jQuery%20was%20not%20able%20to%20load%22:(msg=%22This%20page%20is%20now%20jQuerified%20with%20v%22+jQuery.fn.jquery,otherlib&&(msg+=%22%20and%20noConflict().%20Use%20$jq(),%20not%20$().%22)),showMsg()})})();

Na migratie van XS4ALL naar KPN zijn al je telefoon-doorschakelingen weg: hoe dit te herstellen (spoiler: de on-line aanwijzingen kloppen niet)

Posted by jpluimers on 2022/09/02

In het kader van “kunnen dingen bij ons nooit eens normaal gaan?” het korte antwoord: nee.

Voorbeeld:

Voor de migratie van XS4ALL naar KPN hadden diverse telefoondoorschakelingen in gebruik (met name vertraagd doorschakelen: individuele nummers in ons huishouden gingen vertraagd door naar de bijbehorende mobiele nummers).

Na de migratie waren die allemaal weg. Het duurde even voor we daarachter waren omdat sinds de corona-periode vrijwel altijd iemand thuis is.

Kort en goed: we kamen er dus achter toen er niemand thuis was en we een opmerking kregen onbereikbaar te zijn (door iemand die ons mobiele nummer niet had).

Herstellen was ingewikkelder dan bedacht, want als je deze voor de hand liggende stappen van XS4ALL en KPN volgt kom je met een kluitje in het riet terecht:

History of ASCII Art

Posted by jpluimers on 2022/09/01

Geocities is long dead, but luckily a lot has been archived: [Wayback] Archive.is: History of ASCII Art with a very comprehensive history ranging from ancient old hand painted art to contemporary computer made illustrations.

iOS/Android Privacy: InAppBrowser.com – see what JavaScript commands get injected through an in-app browser · Felix Krause

Posted by jpluimers on 2022/08/31

Especially on Archive, but also on Android and other mobile operating systems, mobile apps can have their in-app browsers to circumvent the OS provided wrapper around the system browser.

On iOS, the Safari is the only system browser engine whereas on Android you can have other engines too, so less Android applications have in-app browsers.

Most of those in-app browsers are in social media applications that go to great length to keep their users inside a walled garden.

The site [Wayback/Archive] inAppBrowser.com helps checking how severely information is leaked through the in-app browser as those potentially have a lot of control. TikTok is worst capturing all input including credentials like user names and passwords.

That new Carbon language, it has a net zero footprint, right?

Posted by jpluimers on 2022/08/25

No, Carbon is not the same thing as the same named MacOS Carbon API it .

Someone had to make it: [Wayback/Archive] Jeroen Wiert Pluimers on Twitter: “@d_feldman That has a net zero Carbon footprint, right? (OK, I’ll show myself out)”.

Luckily Googlers themselves are joking about it as well:

Make your Pi Zero into an OTG USB stick: Pi Zero USB Stem – KIT-14526 – SparkFun Electronics

Posted by jpluimers on 2022/08/24

Cool: [Wayback/Archive.is] Pi Zero USB Stem – KIT-14526 – SparkFun Electronics

The Pi Zero USB Stem is a PCB kit that turns a Raspberry Pi Zero into a USB dongle. Once the Stem is installed, your Raspberry Pi can be plugged directly into a computer or USB hub without any additional cables or power supplies. The Raspberry Pi then acts as a USB device using its own Linux kernel gadget drivers to get started.

The Zero Stem is designed to be soldered directly to the USB SMD test pads on the bottom of the Raspberry Pi Zero, needing no wires or pogo pins at all, just solder and a soldering iron! Attaching the stem to your Pi also allows you to create a portable VNC server, or even cluster several Raspberry Pi Zeros with just a USB hub.

The Zero Stem is compatible with the Raspberry Pi Zero v1.3 and the Raspberry Pi Zero W v1.1, but unfortunately it is not compatible with the Raspberry Pi Zero v1.2 or any full-size Raspberry Pi due to their shapes and sizes.

Note: In order for your Pi Zero to function as a USB device with this Stem, you will need to configure it to act as one. You will be able to find these instructions in the Documentations tab under “How to OTG Fast“.

Eff-Uno Racer v1 by chrisbensen – Thingiverse: Open Wheel Race Car from LEGO© and 3D printed bricks, with RC motors controlled by a Raspberry Pi and Arduino

Posted by jpluimers on 2022/08/17

This is so cool!

[Wayback/Archive.is] Eff-Uno Racer v1 by chrisbensen – Thingiverse

Welcome to the home for the things to print for the Eff-Uno Racer project ([Wayback/Archive.is] github.com/oracle-devrel/eff-uno-racer). Eff-Uno Racer is a LEGO© Open Wheel Race Car that you can build and remotely control. Most of it is made with LEGO© bricks but the motors are regular RC motors controlled by a Raspberry Pi and Arduino. Below are the extra parts needed.

The videos are via these three tweets:

List is at: [Wayback/Archive.is] Cool DevRebel Projects – YouTube
