@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?
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!
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.

Funny Signs! (8 Photos)
From autocorrect jokes on roadside boards to dog stick libraries and even a street post claiming to be Luke’s father—these signs bring humor into the most unexpected places. This collection of silly signs captures creative and funny moments spotted in everyday life.

1. Gary Come Home — City Street, Unknown
A SpongeBob reference placed on a street pole calls for Gary the snail to come home, bringing cartoon humor to the sidewalk.
2. Dog Library — Neighborhood Park, USA
A playful wooden sign designates a ‘Dog Library’ where visitors can ‘take a stick, leave a stick’ for four-legged readers.
3. One Copy Per Child — Porch Library, USA
A front porch setup for Halloween offers free copies of George Orwell’s 1984, with a sign declaring ‘One copy of 1984 per child’ in place of candy.
4. Earthquake Detection Kit — School Wall, USA
Two googly eyes glued to a yellow paper under the title ‘Earthquake Detection Kit’—ready to wiggle at the slightest tremor. More!: The City Has Eyes (8 Photos)
5. Autocorrect Humor — Roadside, USA
A roadside sign pokes fun at autocorrect with a mistaken message about a ‘funnel’ being held ‘tomato’ instead of a funeral tomorrow.
6. Invisible — Street Performance, Europe
A witty sign promises an ‘invisible man with flip-flops,’ with only the footwear left visible for curious passersby.
7. No Entry Bar — Modified Street Sign, Europe
A no-entry traffic sign is altered with silhouettes, transforming the white bar into a counter at a neighborhood bar.
8. I Am Your Father — Street Corner, Europe

Funny Signs (20 Photos)
Some public signs tell you where to go or what to do. These ones? They play with expectations. From witty chalkboards and absurd flyers to poetic instructions and signs that lead nowhere, these 20 messages prove that a little humor or mystery goes a long way in urban spaces.

1. Take What You Need
A simple handwritten flyer reads “Love.” with an invitation: “(Take as much love as you need).” The tear-off tabs just say “LOVE.”
2. Lost My Brain
A satirical lost-and-found flyer features a red anatomical brain diagram and a caption: “Please don’t contact me, I’m happy.”
3. Bar Scene on a No Entry Sign
A creative modification of a no-entry traffic sign transforms the white bar into a bar counter. Three stick figures have been drawn onto the sign—one sitting on a bar stool holding a martini glass, chatting with two others standing beside the “counter.” This humorous intervention turns an ordinary traffic sign into a social vignette.
4. No King
5. Sleeping Bat Warning
Sign on a bookshop door says “Please open the door carefully as there is a bat sleeping on it,” with a real bat sleeping by the doorframe.About it: A Sleeping Bat at The Next Page Bookshop in Calgary Becomes an Unlikely Star
6. Showbiz Ruined Me — By Pao in Rome, Italy
A sculpture of SpongeBob looks heartbroken, sitting on the street with a cardboard sign: “Showbiz ruined me.”
7. Dog Library
A wooden sign beneath a tree offers: “Dog Library. Take a stick. Leave a stick.” The pile of branches says it all.
8. Have You Seen This Dog?
Two dog photos and the words: “Have you seen this dog?” Below: “Now you have. Have a GOOD day.” The tear-tabs? “Have a great day.”
9. Please Do Not Smile — New York City Subway, USA
Posted at 14th Street Station: “Please do not smile at strangers.” Whether real or a prank, it’s coldly hilarious.
10. Private Sign
Painted in bold white letters: “PRIVATE SIGN — DO NOT READ.” Naturally, it’s irresistible.
11. The Secret of Happiness
Painted across a long building, the message begins: “The secret of happiness is t—” and then the rest has peeled away.
12. Reboot Universe
At first glance, a standard pedestrian crossing button. But instead of “PUSH TO CROSS,” it reads: “REBOOT UNIVERSE.”
13. Beware of Smartphone Zombies
A modern caution sign warns: “BEWARE OF SMARTPHONE ZOMBIES,” with silhouettes of people walking while staring at their phones.
14. No Don Quixote
A traffic-style sign bans a rider on a horse with a lance—clearly referencing Don Quixote. Behind it: a real windmill.
15. Great Wheat Sharks — Anne Melady in Ontario, Canada
Shark fins appear to slice through a golden wheat field along Highway 8 west of Dublin, Ontario. Installed by 75-year-old landowner and retired nurse Anne Melady, the piece is titled Great Wheat Sharks. She created it to lighten the mood for drivers during the pandemic and continues the now-local tradition with humor and simplicity.More photos and about it: Please do not feed the Great Wheat Sharks
16. Is It Me You’re Looking For?
A flyer with the face of Lionel Richie and the lyrics from his hit song “Hello” is posted on a utility pole. The bottom of the flyer includes tear-off tabs, each printed with a different lyric fragment, playfully inviting passersby to take one. The setup mimics a typical “lost and found” poster but twists it into a street-level pun.
17. Kingdoms to Countries
On a pub chalkboard: “A long time ago we had Empires run by Emperors. Then we had Kingdoms run by Kings. Now we have Countries…”
18. Accompanied by an Adult
The sign boldly says: “All Americans must be accompanied by an adult.” No context. No problem.
19. Cigarette bin that doubles as a voting booth…
and a political roast all in one. People walk by, chuck in a butt, and suddenly it’s not just litter — it’s democracy with extra sass.
20. The Japanese text (ネコ飛出し注意) translates to “Watch out for jumping cats” or more literally “Caution: Cats dashing out”.
It’s a local road sign sometimes put up in Japanese neighborhoods where there are many stray or outdoor cats. The flying-cat graphics are just a playful way to show that cats might suddenly run across the street, so drivers should slow down and be careful.More: Urban Art Hacks (11 Photos)

in reply to Brian Harrod • • •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."
