Nice, simple, light and dark theme, a calendar. I would remove the internet checks for your storage.ko-fi.com and it did some calls on pypi.org and files.pythonhosted.org. All it needs should be on the docker by default. But that is just me.

Thanks for the feedback! Appreciated!

I had some time to look into this, I think it is partially valid.

The pypi.org and pythonhosted.org calls happen only at docker build time when dependencies are installed, the running container makes no calls there.

The ko-fi badge image (storage.ko-fi.com) is a real runtime outbound request though, every page load fetches it from their CDN.

That's fair criticism and it has an easy fix which is to self-host the image, which I'll do like I do with the rest of things, like fonts.

Thanks again!

I just tried it demo/piruetas and it works, can you double check?

Can confirm that that username and password are not working in the login page.

I have tested many times, I have asked other people too... I cannot replicate what you are experiencing, sorry.

Same issue for me.

I find our standards and norms around network access to be unacceptable. Programs shouldn’t access the Internet without opt in by the user either as a setting or a UI interaction.

We had many years of applications from the dial up error and prior that didn’t assume constant connectivity and we all survived.

Even an OS enforced blend of oauth style initial permission and LittleSnitch where the user is asked what they consent to at first launch would be fine.

Pirueta is not lollipop in Spanish, it would be “piruletas” (at least in Spain Spanish). Piruetas is pirouette, as in what a ice skater might do.

That's a lucky escape. For some reason car manufacturers have this issue Mitsubishi Pajero (renamed in Spain). Ford Pinto (renamed in Brazil). Toyota MR2 (renamed in France although slightly different issue). Honda Fitta (renamed in Scandi countries)

I would like to add Nissan Moco (snot/mucus in Spanish) to that list.

Edit: It was firefox, it doesn't work on firefox!
