But now you’re paying for keeping a server online, whereas a GitHub page could’ve hosted this static website for free.
He did this for fun, his motivation wasn't to find the cheapest way to host his content.
Unless one is into masochism.

I'm more curious about why you hate printers.
If OPs experience is anything like mine, they just suck at doing their job. There's often some silly reason its stuck, or it prints wrong, or the colors are off, etc, its really just a super painful experience and I can't believe its still so bad.

It's literally a webpage with some javascript, so if you save it along with the asset files, you can just open the page in browser from your filesystem, no need to specially host it or start anything. But yes, I agree running a command like qrencode from terminal is easier in the long run.
Does that work for node.js apps?
qrencode -t utf8 'WIFI:T:WPA;S:network;P:password;;'
I wouldn’t ask if it wasn’t the top comment, on the current #1 front page story, but Can someone please explain this command, and why it is presumably given as a criticism of this submission?

We’re moving far, far away from the observability and introspection that once made the web a transparent medium. First it was minified JS, then it was minified and obfuscated JS, then it was using a canvas instead of the DOM to prevent even HTML inspection, and now it’s binary executable payloads (WASM) rendering to a WebGL context with zero introspection possible.
Is there actually a popular site that uses WASM / WebGL the way you mention it?

Offline is not an option in Firefox, just progressively worse connection options.
It's a bit less convenient, but I think you can accomplish the same using a `*` request blocking rule: https://i.imgur.com/SYgAxuW.png

There is an inherent skepticism about typing your password into a web form even/especially if it says it is not sent to the server. My read of this comment was on the one hand telling security conscious people how to achieve the same goal in a way that does not leave the computer, and on the other hand putting a lower bound on the complexity of the value provided by the site.
This doesn't look "simpler" after a quick look, and it's a hard dependency of the GP solution.
(I completely agree on the local-only guarantee that this one provides, though)

This is a staggeringly passive aggressive comment, who hurt you?
I disagree and I found both the command line and ui versions interesting, kudos to both OP and the CLI poster :) As stupid as it sounds I didn’t realize there was a wifi scheme for a uri-like syntax on phones
