Playing around with simulating old school dot matrix (and impact printer!) printer paper with the perforations and the registration holes and everything. #CSS #HTML #DotMatrix https://codepen.io/artlung/pen/ZYYNJOx
(with improved color from @Meyerweb ) (and alternate color from @tantek.com )
@artlung Tractor feed paper? The box model hack? How many different ways do you have to make me feel old in one post?
@woe2you Well, two people have suggested perhaps I could add dot matrix printer sounds… @ross & @gregorlove.com … but it’d have to be initiated by a user click because of how sound works in browsers here in the future. I’m happy to entertain and create mild angst!
@artlung @ross @gregorlove.com If you want to be really extra you could collapse the element to start, then onclick scroll up one line at a time while playing the sound.
