Humor can be dissected as a frog can, but dies in the process.
RSS has some issues - Fixed (Gabe still needs to use ")
Obviously, RSS is still not working; furthermore, I don't think it's correct to suggest that it's somehow Gabe/Tycho's fault for using HTML entities in their posts.
Rather, instead, there's a simple code-based workaround that does not require carefully HTML-escaping every entity or what-have-you.
Simply add this string at the top of your rss file, and all of the entities will work just fine unescaped:
<!DOCTYPE rss [
<!ENTITY nbsp " "> <!-- no-break space = non-breaking space,
U+00A0 ISOnum -->
<!ENTITY ndash "–">
<!ENTITY mdash "—">
<!ENTITY lsquo "‘"> <!-- left single quotation mark,
U+2018 ISOnum -->
<!ENTITY rsquo "’"> <!-- right single quotation mark,
U+2019 ISOnum -->
<!ENTITY sbquo "‚">
<!ENTITY ldquo "“"> <!-- left double quotation mark,
U+201C ISOnum -->
<!ENTITY rdquo "”"> <!-- right double quotation mark,
U+201D ISOnum -->
]>
If you like, you could store this information in a separate .dtd file, but it's so short that I don't really see the point.
I would say Unbelievably, RSS is =still= not working.
Even with the fix you posted, it doesn't correct errors such as:
Tycho: Rise of Nations was a great game, but if you were flipping through screenshots seeking out some new addiction it wouldn't have stood out - you'd get the impression that you had played "that game&...
No matter how you slice it, "&..." isn't valid.
And what about "Fünde Razor"? "ü" doesn't translate.
Where's the code for the feed generator? Post it, and we'll fix it!

If I hit cancel it lets me browse/post normally, but I thought that was kinda weird. I'm using Safari on OS 10.4.2
