Countdown in header text/images

Jump to the newest picture

Explanation

• Here are (work in process) all the images from xkcd used in the Countdown in header text.
  • The images can also be found here, on munvoseli's page.
• The images have been numbered here on explain xkcd and the number is a link to the image in the count-wimRikmef folder on xkcd.com:
  • https://xkcd.com/count-wimRikmef/imgs/
  • Each picture's filename is the SHA256 hash of the image itself, so it is impossible to predict future file names:
    • Here the name for the first picture: ac84f99b9c41eb75e1a595ea74c7bccf48f36c345d8b88ad5dd478d4520bc0b2.png

      • Attempting to brute-force future files, assuming you could test 1 trillion file names per second, would take 200,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 times the age of the universe.
        • Not if you use the right wrench! (538:_Security... but of course we won't do that)
• The current state (image and when to check next = every 10 min) can be found at [1](https://xkcd.com/count-wimRikmef/state)
  • The script controlling the updates can be found at [2](https://xkcd.com/s/e3fad5.js), though it doesn't reveal anything new. It just checks the current state and updates the image and the countdown.
