Ok, today’s xkcd is glorious!

[erinaceus@chaos.social]

@5ciFiGirl @gareth Same result for modem mode on my device / browser. Everything else is recoverable

[skeptator@mastodon.social]

@gareth trapped in modem mode

[sborrill@justfollow.me.uk]

@gareth Screensaver and Modem mode seem to crash the browser tab in Firebox. They work fine in Chrome

[gareth@tenforward.social]

@sborrill interesting. I only tried in Orion and it was fine in the MacOS and iOS versions. I wonder if that’s what @5ciFiGirl, @skeptator and @erinaceus were seeing…

@gareth
OMG modem mode!

[joncounts@mastodon.nz]

@gareth Antipodes Mode!

[thasl@social.tchncs.de]

@gareth I clicked around, hit the random button, and of course landed on https://xkcd.com/1732/ - in Modem mode
It... took a while^^

[thasl@social.tchncs.de]

@gareth Reloaded again to time the whole thing, it takes about a minute for 1k years - so around 20mins for the whole image to load.

[masek@infosec.exchange]

@gareth Yes, you should totally try out the different modes he offers....

[rupertreynolds@hachyderm.io]

@gareth Oh, great stuff!

(must try it again at home, because my phone can't do it all justice)

[ninafelwitch@tech.lgbt]

@gareth the airplane mode

[kalvaro@mastodon.social]

@gareth Beware it isn't available in the mobile version.

[ross@hachyderm.io]

@gareth disappointing, the Lighter Mode doesn't use HDR colours

[5cifigirl@starbase80.wtf]

@gareth

I tried several times, but i only waited long enough to get a "this page is slowing down your browser" notice from firefox, lol

[evur@mastodon.social]

@gareth "Darkest Mode" is the best. It's really easy on my eyes.

[claudiom@bsd.network]

@gareth Oh man, that's awesome! I love "modem mode." ​

[amberage@eldritch.cafe]

@gareth does Modem Mode crash the browser for anyone else?

[jernej__s@infosec.exchange]

@thasl @gareth That one's great in spring mode, too.

[javerous@social.sourcemac.com]

@gareth @jpmens Oh yes, I saw it, but I didn't notice the popup menu !

[purpleshadow@eldritch.cafe]

@gareth The modem mode is killing my browser :_)
