7·1 month agoSo I’m guessing the name stuck for the Japanese market.
パックマン
The first character is pronounced “pa”.
This isn’t the case with Mega Man being Rockman or Astro Boy being the Mighty Atom.

Technology@beehaw.org•Oh No! Now A Federal Bill Wants OS-Level Age Verification for Everyone in the USA
2·4 months agoNo worries man.
This is just a guess but with open source operating systems, it can and will probably be bypassed. I’m sure people will make forks without verification.
With closed source, probably not the most updated ones.

Technology@beehaw.org•Oh No! Now A Federal Bill Wants OS-Level Age Verification for Everyone in the USA
9·4 months agoThis bill, if passed, will force operating systems to verify the age of the user. This means the verification uses a government issued ID.

161·4 months agoThis basically makes using VPNs for privacy useless. Now they will have a record of every IP address you ever used. They can also use local laws internationally. Like if your state has age verification or bans certain sites, they can just use your ID to ban those websites or apps even if you aren’t in the country.
This is horribly bad…

2·6 months agoThank you for the explanation.
I will continue to use it and provide feedback. So far, really great.
I nearly take all my notes in markdown. I am always excited to try another open source markdown program.
HelixNotes is super polished.
Thanks!

1·6 months agoMe again. Last time tonight, I promise.
My favorite features so far, making the edit toolbar disappear in source mode and Focus mode. Quick access is also really useful.
One more thing I don’t like, it was adding a header to my edited notes.
Example:
--- id: "9242199e-992b-4c58-9b4f-85a6949d424d" title: "Books" tags: [] pinned: false created: 2026-02-15T04:32:13.600656+00:00 modified: 2026-02-15T04:32:17.240423+00:00 ---This doesn’t look great in MacOS preview. This might be one of those things that it was simplest to just add this directly to the file rather than creating some kind of database or a bunch of dot files. Again, not a deal breaker for me. Would adding it to the bottom be possible instead?
Thank you.

1·6 months agoHi OP. I am really enjoying using HelixNotes.
I love the way it looks and all the features. I was able to use the same folder I use MarkFlowy and Marknote.
My only critique is the
Ctrlkey in Windows and Linux menu shortcuts is usually changed toCmdfor Mac. It really isn’t a big deal but I think a lot of Mac users will notice this instantly. I tried creating an note withCmd+Nsince is the default for all other Mac apps. I saw the Shortcuts in the Info section and I was hoping you could customize the Keyboard Shortcuts, but you can’t.It isn’t a big deal with me. So far I am enjoying this more than MarkFlowy and Marknote. If you don’t change for whatever reason, I understand and I will continue to use your HelixNotes.
Again thank you for your work.

Thank you for your work.

widthshould not default topxconsidering you can also useem,pxand.This won’t help with your units issue but if you want Javascript to give more errors, try strict mode. Add:
;as the first line in your file.

You can still create open hotspots and have those services running on a server if you wanted. It doesn’t need to be connected to the internet.
Anyone please correct me if I am wrong.
