    How do you do with sleeping, anyway?

    Drafted some UIs. This is going to be great.

    Sounds good.

    Oh lords, me in charge of CSS will never end well.

    Saves RAM because you only have one instance of PC's assets. And since PC is based on vBulletin, there is a lot of bulk HTML and CSS that's slow and inefficient (i.e. <table> and friends). Since I'm just scraping the site, I'll grab the page, extract what I want, and discard the rest. The base CSS will probably be fairly modernist too, so it'll likely have less computational complexity. Fewer CPU cycles naturally follows.

    On the topic of CSS, I'll probably let you write your own custom themes and submit them for everyone to use.

    That sounds super. Make it not terrible on larger tablet screens and I'm sold.

    ...Actually, would it? Now I'm really not sure. Identity crisis.

    So since I have nothing else to do on this tour bus, I'm just going to do some planning. So far I have:

    PCV: Pokecommunity Viewer

    background auto-refresh (15 seconds?), chime on notification
    single page app - no page refreshes and stupid flashes
    thread viewing and posting functionality
    mobile friendly
    multiple threads can be viewed/auto-refreshed at a time
    infinite scroll threads instead of more page reloads
    clicking on a username produces a small modal with short info and VMs, so you can keep browsing your threads

    This design will make data load faster and also save RAM and CPU.

    :D

    That would've been... Uncharacteristic of me. Just a bit.

    And it will all be for naught the day I decide to just add my PC regulars to on Skype. :D

    ...okay, you would've created s useful tool for all of us, so maybe not for NAUGHT.

    I've always wanted to do it, but didn't really have the motivation to get it started. Now I do.

    One step closer to turning this public conversation medium into an IM service!

    I should write a tool to do that. Wouldn't take too long.

    Well, not morally bankrupt.

    Feels a bit weird having to interrupt my hatching in Soulsilver to update my PC window. I wonder if there's a way to get notifications on my tablet.

    ...Literally just got a call from Joey about his Rattata.
