Not many people know that the github wiki is actually backed by a separate "hidden" repo, and can be accessed by adding .wiki to the repo url, e.g. https://github.com/lionleaf/dwitter.wiki.git

Apparently it can even do CI stuff. Still wouldn't recommend it though, for the other reasons outlined in TFA and this thread.


It's in the docs, so it's not exactly hidden:

> You can edit wikis directly on GitHub, or you can edit wiki files locally.

https://docs.github.com/en/communities/documenting-your-proj...

> Every wiki provides an easy way to clone its contents down to your computer. Once you've created an initial page on GitHub, you can clone the repository to your computer with the provided URL.

Every GitHub wiki you visit also has a section at the bottom that points to that URL with the description

> Clone this wiki locally

as well.


I seem to recall that GHE allowed you at one point to point a Wiki to a /docs or /docs/wiki subdirectory. I still don't know why that never became a public GitHub.com feature. Sure it is technically redundant with the file browser if you know how to use the view controls and don't mind the UI sprawl of the file browser, but I still think it would be a good feature.


It leads to a 404 page on my end.


It’s not a web page; it’s a git remote url


Came across the Samsung The Frame variant last month too! https://github.com/simenf/birdframe


I work on https://elevenmusic.io (full disclosure), so I just had to check:

  onemusic.com.au
  twomusic.it
  3music.tv
  fourmusic.com
  5music.com.tw
  bbc.co.uk/6music
  seven-music.com
  (8 appears to be vacant?)
  ninemusic.net
  tenmusic.in


Maybe 8 music sounds too close to “hate music” when pronounced fast? Not exactly a great advertisement if someone tunes in to your radio station and hears you hate music.


44Music not taken? Common time signature seems obvious...


oh, 'the44music' is it. Ok, world is fine.


Close but not exact, and not defunct https://blog.8tracks.com/


is there onetwothreeFOURfivesixseveneightNINEteneleventwelvemusic.in [1]?

Naturally most of the 67/six seven ones are taken too, but are just being squatted on.

I'm disappointed that sixseven.ai is not joining the Gen-Z brainrot revolution.

Hi HN! Hope you have fun with this one :) Everything is free to browse and download and if the sound you need doesn't exist, describe it and generate it. Every generation joins the public library, so the catalog grows from what people couldn't find.


Dwitter is 10 years old this winter! If anyone is interested in some backstory, I dug up an old interview: https://medium.com/windows-developer/dwitter-dares-you-to-co....

Of course, the real magic of dwitter is the lovely community: https://discord.gg/emHe6cP


Arc Roam is my holiday project this Christmas. I wanted to create an online, browser-based, mobile-playable "destilled" alternative to the old classic PC game Elastomania, (and it's unofficial multiplayer mod Elma Online). I used to play Elma religiously, but it stopped working on Mac (via Wine) last year, so hopefully I now have a way of getting my fix again! Now all I need is someone to complete against

The tech stack is pretty simple: - React / canvas (2d) frontend - express / ws backend - Fully ephemeral, no storage (to save money)


Cool! Not to self-promote (no monetization or anything), but in case any one finds it helpful, I made something similar for myself to practice becoming more accurate with Wacom-style tablet pens: https://tabletpractice.arkt.is/


This is great too! Being able to draw nice straight lines with a tablet pen might debatably be even more useful than drawing a perfect circle.


Since we are sharing variants in different languages, here's Norwegian: https://www.fiveletters.xyz/no/five


#somebodyshould make a danish version…


I can modify my swedish one to do danish. Do you know of any good word lists? For all valid words I can use /usr/share/dict/danish. But do you know of any list that only has good clue words? I'm looking for something like https://scrabbleforening.wordpress.com/ordlister/ord-med-4-b... but for five letters


I can easily give you a list of all valid 5-letter words in Danish. Would that do?


PS: I'm unsure how the clue thing works?


Take the word "lampa". You have versions of the word: "lampor", "lampan" and so on. The correct word for each day should only be of the type "lampa". No "bending". That is the word list that I'm looking for. But you should be able to guess words that are "bent". Those I can get from /usr/share/dict/danish


I'm pretty sure I can give you a list of all 5-letter Danish words in the “lampa” form, but I need to work on it because I have to pour them through a filter first, and then manually inspect the thousands of words remaining.

Can we take this conversation to email? You can find my email address at https://kas.bio.link/ and I'm perfectly fine if you write in Swedish (if I may reply in Danish).


Here is the first attempt: https://ordlek.github.io/ordlek/dansk/

Hope you like it :)


I do! But it seems somebody beat us to it: https://xn--wrdle-vua.dk/


There is! It's called wørdle.dk :)


LOL! I love the domain name!!


That's for the stats feature that shows you e.g. your most guessed word, etc. It's all calculatated client-side. In fact, there is no backend at all!


It uses the scrabble dictionary (SOWPODS, as you mention) -- if it is a playable five-letter word in scrabble, then it is playable here.


I got to _love and tried clove and glove. Neither were the answer. Anyone?
