I see what you've done there!

        int randomNumber = getRandomNumber(1, 808);
        if (randomNumber == 808)
                printGlimmeringText(text, nerdFontText, lastRowColor);
Nice project!

Perhaps this is a good place to ask if anyone has a copy of the manual for CopyWrite by Quaid Software?

The manual had a really good description of the floppy controller interface + various tricks one could use to copy protect floppies.

I know where to find several versions of the program. I am not interested in those. I am only interested in the manual.

I found two versions at https://archive.org, there's a PDF manual too.

Thanks!

Yes, it's totally up to a PDS operator to decide how they create user accounts. It's also not required on the Bluesky PDS service any longer, in most cases.

By default the self-hosted PDS requires an invite code, to prevent random people from creating an account. Later other options will exist, including OAuth support which is coming soon.

That's great, thanks!

> It's also not required on the Bluesky service any longer, in most cases.

That's also nice to hear - when last time I tried to register an account (shortly after the free registration launch) the phone number field in the registration form was marked as required, if I am not mistaken.

Hey HN, the engineering team at Bluesky is especially excited to get to this point! We're happy to help answer questions and help anyone trying to run their own PDS host. Things should work pretty well for self-hosters right now, but we're standing by to help if there are any problems.

Technical details and the installer are in the GitHub repo https://github.com/bluesky-social/pds

And we're on Discord available to help: https://discord.com/invite/UWS6FFdhMe

Congratulations on the release! If I may ask a question - is it possible to register an account without a phone number on a 3-rd party server?
