Two side-by-side images depict a festive, snowy street scene with a prominent toy or curiosity shop. The image on the left is labeled "AI GENERATED, BEFORE EDITS," and the image on the right is labeled "AI GENERATED, AFTER EDITS."

Both images show a charming, two-story wooden building covered in snow, with warm light glowing from its many display windows. The windows are filled with an array of colorful, whimsical items like gears, spirals, and large candies. In front of the shop, a snowy street scene unfolds with several bundled-up figures, including adults and children. A prominent figure in the foreground on the right is a bearded man in a top hat and long coat, holding a long, coiled spring. Near him, a sack overflows with colorful ornaments, and a blue bauble rests on the snow. To his left, a child pulls a wooden sled laden with more colorful items, while another child stands nearby with a basket. More figures are visible further down the snowy street, with snow-covered houses and bare trees in the background under a dark, snowy sky.

The primary difference between the two images lies in the text on the shop signs. In the 'before' image, the main sign reads "WHIRLGIG WOBBLIG EMPORUM," and the smaller signs below the windows say "KVIBBLY-KUNS" and "BRIEL-BRAC." In the 'after' image, the main sign has been edited to "WHIRLGIG WOBBLETON'S EMPORIUM," and the smaller signs now read "KNICK-KNACKS" and "BRIC-A-BRAC."



This wise old monarch has been a steadfast presence in our yard for days. I think he's resigned to the fact that he won't be making the journey to Mexico. He has done his duty beautifully, making way for the next generation. It will be an honor to spend his final days with him in the yard. #butterfly #butterflies #Lepidoptera #Illinois #nature #photography #SaveTheMonarch #photographylovers #wildlifephotography

@yunohost Hello, a few minutes ago the yunohost-silverbullet maintainer updated the app.
Since I was watching the "update version" issue I quickly got the info and immediately tried on my server, but I got the old version.

1) I suppose there is job in the "yunohost app store" that I need to wait for so the build is propagated?

I found this page: ci-apps.yunohost.org/ci/apps/s…

I guess I will just have to wait the 31/08 at 21:09… oh wait, we are the 31/08 at 23:55 for me 😅

2) Should I open an issue to ask for the server time? Or adapt time for browser’s TZ?

in reply to YunoHost

Additionally the time you saw on the CI is the moment the job was created, it does not tell you when it will actually start. (There's a queue!)

Cheers!

in reply to YunoHost

I am blind 🦯 . Maybe just tired. Don’t even know why I asked in English when I know you most probably speak French.

Anyway, thanks !

I uninstalled the version so to install fresh the commands appear to be `yunohost app install https://github.com/YunoHost-Apps/silverbullet_ynh`.

The CLI tool is quite nice, good job on this!

I still have a nitpick: `usage: yunohost app install app [-h] […]` and then saying `positional arguments: app`

Well "which one" is the right app? Would be more visible with color/CAPS/<angle-brackets>. + it can grab our attention on this pos-arg.

The video begins with a football player wearing a green jersey with the number 80, standing on a field in a stadium filled with spectators. The player is wearing a black cap with a logo and a helmet, and the jersey features patches for 'Bumper Bumper' and 'NexGen.' The scene transitions to another player in a green jersey with the number 7, also in a stadium setting, with the crowd visible in the background. The video then shifts to a player in a green jersey with the number 1, running on the field, with a blurred stadium background. The scene changes to a close-up of the same player, now wearing a helmet, with a reflective visor showing a stadium view. The video concludes with two men in suits holding microphones with the ESPN logo, standing in front of a cityscape backdrop, suggesting a sports broadcast setting.

Yesterday, I swept out my garage and unfortunately, the web of my large, non-lethal spider, Frank. Frank took refuge in the upper left corner of the garage and I kept an eye on him over the evening. Before I went to bed, I checked one last time and he had moved to Zod knows where. Now, I'm pretty sure Frank is plotting to kill me. 🪦 🕷️

Netanyahu's government approved the battle plan to head into a full takeover of Gaza City. Most Israelis hate the war and their government.
