Improve the contrast

@alkyilcycloalke you mean like the visibility of the text? Because the point is, those are the Blender Dumbass colors. The background is this washed out greyish bluesh thing. And the foreground it yellow. Why text looks quite good on this background. I can try black text. But I believe it will look crappy.

Okay, I changed the background. I hope it is better this way. I mean it look way better to me.

@alkyilcycloalke lol after all this time I ended up actually making a login system. Though I had to hack it into existence since I didn't plan for it at all. But it seems like it works.

I would like your site to have a mirror in Clearnet! I don't want to start Tor Browser and connect to Tor for the sake of one site xD

And thank you for your articles

This is the most working way I found to connect to my website from a normal browser without installing anything.

https://www.4everproxy.com/tor-proxy

If you are using Brave it should just work normally. Though you may need to press a little Tor button in the address bar for it to understand that you want a Tor window. I don't know why .onion links do not load automatically in Tor Window.

Also for almost every browser there is a Torification plugin. One I know is Tor Button. My dad uses it on Chromium to connect to this site. On his other computer he uses only Tor Browser for all browsing.

I don't think I will be able to make a clear-net link to this website in the near future since I host it directly from my computer and I have a shitty network ( including the router ).

There might be a good Tor to Web proxy where I could get a good static link. If I find one, I will start sharing it too. So far I didn't find one.

Wow, you responded quickly. Thank you for the information. Actually about a month ago I created an issue in the repository of a popular Tor proxy (Tor2Web): https://github.com/tor2web/Tor2web/issues/387

I have not yet found a Tor2Web server that works unfortunately. If you find one. Tell me.

Revork login system so it does not leak password as plain text.

[avatar]  Blender Dumbass c:12


@Madiator2011 you have a point. But as of now I have no idea how to make a login password system like this without JS. Maybe you know. And yes, if I learn how, I will implement it myself here.

I'm testing an idea, please ignore this.
Trying to make the markdown parser recognize text written in a fountain format and render it as a screenplay.


EXT. SOME LOCATION - NIGHT

Two people come into the room. JOHN and MARK.

MARK

How are you doing, John?


John started paying attention Mark.

JOHN

You know, Mark, so much stuff is on my head right now. I don't even know where to start.




This should be already after the script part.


INT. JOHN'S HOUSE - DAY

John is talking on a phone to Mark.

JOHN

Forget about what I told you last time. It is not important.


MARK

What are you talking about?




Again, should be normal text. And the rest of markdown should still work.

Attempting a way to suddenly change into script mode



Should be script-like

JOSH

Hello world.




JOSH
This is not script-like



JOSH

Script like again.

Script like again.

[icon reviews]Gladiator 2000 is Ridley Scott's turn at mimicking Michael Bay

[thumbnail]

[avatar]  Blender Dumbass

There are quite some differences between the Scott brothers ( Ridley and Tony ) and the Maximus himself Michael Bay. You can read Troler's observations and then my rant in the comments to see why they aren't quite the same. But specifically Tony Scott films sometimes feels almost like Michael Bay movies. Especially early Tony Scott and early Michael Bay, before both of them knew how similar they are and before they started trying to develop each other into opposite directions. Which happened roughly in time with the 21st century. And yet with all this the Ridley Scott epic Gladiator which was shot at 20st century and released at 21st, bluntly steals one of the shots Michael Bay is known for.

[icon articles]Democracy Is Not Enough

People tend to think of Democracy and Freedom as one and the same. And yes, in the modern world you can expect more freedom from countries practicing democracy. And less freedom in any other form of government. And it's because the two are very much linked together. But since people do not understand both: what are the differences between the two; and what Democracy is really trying to achieve, they get sometimes very confused.
