Yep. Do you all have important URLs with Unicode characters?
I think it would be great if registries screened registrations for confusable names. Even if they did though, I wouldn’t expect them to succeed 100%

For most security - centric websites, the right name is ASCII only.
For any that aren’t, people would have the opportunity to become familiar with the correct fingerprint over time and have a chance to notice a difference.
I’m curious to hear if you think there is a better way. What I’m saying is unlikely to ever be implemented in a browser and I’m not trying to convince you or anything, just say why I personally would appreciate it.
Because it does not match google.com
Let’s say that I go to google.com. The UI shows
https://google.com/
. No punycode because it is plain ascii. Everything is as expected.
Now let’s say I click on a link for googӏe.com. The ui shows https://xn--googe-hof.com/ (googӏe.com)
I’d be like, holy shit that is a shady URL!
That’s how I imagine it helping, although I am not a UI expert. There could be a better way. But that googӏe.com scares me – I can’t visually tell that it is not a normal lowercase “l”.
P.S. for the URL in question, https://xn--gckvb8fzb.com/ (マリウス.com)
I imagine that if I went to it frequently, I might begin to recognize the punycode, sorta like how people recognize rickroll URLs.
Ideally they should show both side by side.
Strongyloides (from Greek strongylos, round, + eidos, resemblance), anguillula, or threadworm is a genus of small nematode parasites, belonging to the family Strongylidae, commonly found in the small intestine of mammals (particularly ruminants), that are characterized by an unusual lifecycle that involves one or several generations of free-living adult worms.
I’ve heard it’s a security feature not ro render unicode in the url because otherwise people could use Unicode lookalike characters to spoof a domain.
I thought some of the Apollo astronauts were illegally enriching themselves by selling a service where they would take people’s stuff to the moon in their private gear allowance, and then give it back.
Very cool!
They doubled down and showed their true colors. AFAIK they never tried to improve the situation after that.
It’s best to keep it around 50℅ and let it charge / discharge about 5%, and then charge again. See the research links on charge.org (note the bias: his business sells a dongle, but some computers like think pads come with this functionality built in.)
My favorite rye is also the worst one.
Old Grandad.
I’m setting up a yunohost machine for my brother as a birthday present. I got him a domain good for 10 years, and installed nextcloud and Jellyfin with some home videos digitized from our parents’ vhs tapes.
What is beets, hobbits?

Just learned about ARC cards yesterday, looking at Jellyfin compatibility.
If you like novels I highly recommend Galileo’s Dream by Kim Stanley Robinson. It has a moment where Galileo realizes you could “weigh” time, in his experiments with objects rolling down an inclined plane.
Fuuuuck. This sucks
For me the learning curve of learning containers does not match the value proposition of what benefits they’re supposed to provide.
