[solved] unable to recover backup due to character limitations
https://github.com/rootzoll/raspiblitz/issues/783
I was unable to restore an old wallet and `channels.backup` due to the restricted character set for `Password D`  – which was introduced after i created the wallet – via the interface.
My wallet recovery was in the end successful after bypassing the check and setting `passwordD` directly to the correct value in https://github.com/rootzoll/raspiblitz/blob/5a501e65211c4d62286c551a87742fd304cbc1b7/home.admin/70initLND.sh#L345

So if someone stumbles over the same issue, this might be a solution – otherwise it might be an idea to allow all characters for restoring purposes.

Thanks for the great work!!!

Put warning up until niceties is fixed
https://github.com/mjec/rc-niceties/issues/21
Until the issues that are preventing staff from using niceties.recurse.com are resolved, it would be useful to have a disclaimer on the site warning users to only submit niceties via the most recent Google form.

Suggested by @rhonorv on [RC Zulip :lock:](https://recurse.zulipchat.com/#narrow/stream/19042-397-Bridge/topic/Niceties.3F.3F.3F/near/172773838).

Limitations

Since it uses the Github Search API, it has a rate limitation on multipage searches, being limited to 60 searches per hour on unauthenticated uses, see more in https://developer.github.com/v3/#rate-limiting

On the more ambiguous terms of search, for example, searching all the Python issues without a query, the program crashes with an exception, blowing the limitation, since PyGithub searches everytime there's a page on the search results, in these cases

TODO

  • Make a better usage guide
