90s UIs are fast. No fluff, mostly text.

McMaster-Carr ftw. If there's something you need, they most likely carry it and will get it to you next-day.

At 200% mark up but it will be there the next day.

Yet still VASTLY cheaper than Grainger.

[–] watson387@sopuli.xyz 3 points 1 week ago

No doubt. They're definitely not the cheapest, but if you need something in a hurry they're excellent.

I wish we had something like McMaster Carr in the UK. I don't even care if it's fast! You guys had better appreciate how good you've got it.

Ridiculously fast? It loads for each category 2 seconds.

[–] tyler@programming.dev 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

The longest load for a page you haven’t encountered before is under a second, because it’s loading thousands of items. The longest paint is 176ms. It was averaging like 17ms. It’s incredibly fast.

Guess it's not CDNed and far away?

I love how the preview text for youtube videos is entirely fucking useless

[–] leds@feddit.dk 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Even better is that it depends on your instance , for me the preview text is some German text becuase the instance I'm using happens to be hosted in Germany

Yeah, Google likes to guess the language preference based on the IP address, which thankfully never goes wrong.
