sha-3··on Tell HN: Internet Archive is facing a Big 4 Publishers lawsuit
The only comparable public alternative to the Wayback Machine is archive.today. But as far as I know, no one knows who operates or funds the project. It could go down anytime and no one can do anything about it.
sha-3··on Gambling and Adult content DNS blocking using Mullvad VPN
It has almost always worked on my devices though.
sha-3··on Tell HN: Instagram demands I send a picture of myself to prove I own my account
> All I want is the possibility to view other people's posts and zoom on the pictures.

Check out Bibliogram[0], an alternate front-end for Instagram. Most of their instances[1] are partially blocked, but you can still view the recent posts and zoom in on them.

sha-3··on Mechanical Watch

Yep, that's why the visualizations do not run on my hardened Firefox. I disabled WebGL.

As totally awesome as this is, don't you have any problem publicly sharing your personal data?
sha-3··on Launch HN: Andi (YC W22) – Q&A based, ad-free, anti-spam search engine
Really cool project. My feedback:

- I really like the search engine but really hate the chat interface. I wish it had a normal search engine interface. - The response times are a little high.

The 'go' feature is great! Can the calculator provide step-by-step solution from Wolfram Alpha?

Hey look, I got a funnel.
sha-3··on Anonymous takes .ru government websites offline
I'm not very familiar with who Anonymous is and what they did in the past. But can't any hacker group just do this and claim they're Anonymous?

Thanks for the list. I love trains!

Works fine on my Firefox.
sha-3··on A cross platform front-end GUI of the popular YouTube-dl written in wxPython
It seems to me like youtube-dl is also abandoned.

yt-dlp[0] is a fork with additional features and fixes. It is also actively maintained.

sha-3··on Singularity – Microsoft’s Experimental OS
Only until I have to open Task Manager to see what's hogging my memory.
