So strange to see you commenting on HN, I was an avid reader of Joystick back in the day !


Windows had wordpad but it was discontinued two years ago : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WordPad


wat?????

wtf why?????????


So you subscribe to the Microsoft CoPilot 365 App or whatever it's called now.


hmm... ok maybe that's reasonable

charge extra premium for a "secure vanilla-text™ pure unadulterated wysiwyg editor" experience should be a thing for the "security-minded" enterprises


You made me check but there is a "birthday" field on the contact form and I can display a "Birthdays" calendar with events for the birthdays of my contacts.


For other types of anniversaries (like close friends' and relatives' wedding anniversaries) I sometimes create dummy contacts.


I just create an all-day calendar event and manually change the date each year.


Can you not just make it a yearly repeating event?


There is a complete super metroid walkthrough using this technique : https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/snes/588741-super-metroid/faqs...

I don't know exactly why this bug would still be open, but you can use x86-64 images on an ARM64 Mac :

I have been using it for a few months (in beta) and it works great !


Ah, just out of beta a few days ago. I'll try it out!


Can't you just put the image as a file inside your repo and reference it from the README.md file ?


Not if your readme also has to work on "not Github" like npm or pypi, or anything that repackages your release while using your readme.md as page content. Those images are going to have to be fully qualified URLs.



I've been using Gandi for years and I'm looking for a new registrar. Which one(s) are you recommending ?


I've moved a few of my domains from Gandi to Cloudflare, though their selection of available TLDs is somewhat limited and until recently you couldn't register domains directly. I was considering moving back to Gandi from Cloudflare, but looks like I'll have to look around... again.


Porkbun has been good for me, just a couple domains though.


The fact that users have to delete the old Github key from their systems and accept a new one is what could lead to a MITM attack.

If your system doesn't know the public key of an SSH server, when you connect the first time, the SSH client will display a warning and ask you if you accept the server key. An attacker could be between you and Github and if you accept without checking it's the correct key, you would be toast.


Would it be more secure to access a https secured server to get the keyfile then?


Yes, GitHub's announcement provides the correct new public RSA key, and it also provides instructions for a curl invocation which does all the work if you don't trust yourself to copy-paste text or don't understand how.


Only if the https server cert wasn't compromised at the same time as the ssh key. For all we know, this entire announcement of "we have a new key" could be staged.


I guess that would be Doom.


On Instagram, when you create an account, you now need to submit a selfie picture while holding a code given to you while registering. For suspicious account, it can even be a video selfie. I know bots are an issue but they should ask for this only when posting/commenting, not for browsing. No way I'll send a picture or video to facebook linked to my email/phone number.


I was thinking of signing up to Instagram to create a golf and fitness diary and connect with a few people I really care about. There goes that - fuck that noise!


Sounds like an interesting stable diffusion prompt.


Text is still a big challenge, I don't think I've seen any that have properly rendered the text you want. I wonder if handwritten text would be easier or harder since there's more variation.


I thought this was typically done on purpose to prevent exactly the types of situations described, I didn't think it was actually a technical limitation of the model.


https://opguides.info/posts/aiartpanic/ was on the front page a few days ago, and you can see from the results that the text is pretty mangled. If it were intentional, I’d expect it to be clean text, even if it didn’t make sense. It seems to genuinely have trouble with characters and combines glyphs a lot of the time.
