How to do an RSS icon in CSS

 I have been adapting an RSS icon made with CSS.


The RSS icon came from: 


    'codepen.io/dazulu/pen/nwppvr'


There are 4 circles layered on top of each other, using 'z-index' values. The circles are made with 'div's and 'border-radius: 50%'. The circles are of increasing size.


The circles are centered by setting a 'left' and 'bottom' to minus half the div's width and height. The circles have 'positon:absolute' within the overall icon container's 'position:relative'.


The second and fourth circles have a white background, whereas the first and third have the orange color.


Only the top-right corner of the circles is shown by putting the 4 circles in a container 'div' and giving the 'div' an 'overflow: hidden'.


Finally a small white circle is placed on top at the center of the above 4 circles.


My RSS icon is at: 


    'codepen.io/Bert-Beckwith/pen/YzobrmX'


This also shows the icon without 'overflow: hidden' to show how it is made up

Dark mode using 'invert' does not work on Firefox

 Implementing 'dark mode' with 'invert' on the 'html' tag does not seem to work on the old Firefox used in my local libraries. This version of Firefox does not invert the background. This Firefox just inverts the elements you add. The Firefox developers feel they are following the specification. Using 'invert' when there is an 'overlay' scrollbar on Chrome sometimes makes the scrollbar disappear. I am using the last version of Chrome on Windows7. I understand 'overlay' scrollbars have been removed from the latest versions of Chrome. Of course, a dark scrollbar on a black background does not make sense. So I would need to use 'color-scheme' to change the color of the scrollbar. But 'invert' does not work well with 'color-scheme'. I could not set the colour of this 'overlay' scrollbar with properties like '-webkit-scrollbar-thumb'.  So I am going to have to implement 'dark mode' by setting the

U.S. government uses internet backdoors for surveillance

 I read a thought-provoking book: 'Surveillance Valley' by Yasha Levine. The author says the internet started with the ARPANET, used by the U.S. military. The author says this was used for counter-insurgency work in Vietnam. The author says ARPANET was used to share data on protests in the U.S. The author says Edward Snowden leaked details of the PRISM project showing that companies such as Google and Facebook worked with the U.S. government to give the government direct access to all the very detailed information these companies hold about you.  The author says the Tor project is mainly funded by the U.S. government to encourage regime change in hostile countries. The author says Tor has holes in it. The author says the U.S. government can get around Tor and Signal by hacking your mobile phone. The author says Tor and Signal give people a false sense of security and so prevents the regulation of Google and Facebook's data collection. I got the book from my local library Th
