I have applied most of your changes from the patch and removed the html5shiv
URI.
The absolute path hardcoding was due to a problem with the RSS feed IIRC at
the time of creating the blog (I don't remember very well the details
anymore).
The hardcode path was left with the idea of fixing it after launching
the blog and got forgotten. I can imagine how bad it looks when browsing
the onion service, I'm looking at it now.
If you have more changes, feel free to apply them directly in git (it's
writeable for all DDs). You can create a branch if you feel the changes
need discussion.
