  News - Today's Wordle Answer (#572) - January 12, 2022
Posted by: xSicKxBot - 01-12-2023, 03:25 PM - Forum: Lounge - No Replies

Today's Wordle Answer (#572) - January 12, 2022

Who doesn't enjoy a little Thursday Wordle action every now and again? While the answers in 2023 have been generally non-trivial, today's answer on January 12 bucks that trend. While the word itself is somewhat common, it features an uncommon spelling and some interesting letter placements. We'd be surprised if any player was able to get this word in their first three guesses, but it's not completely impossible to get without any help.

If you haven't started the Wordle just yet, then you can check out our list of recommended starting words. However, if you're already past the starting point, then you might be looking for some hints if you've hit a wall. Luckily, we provide just that further down in this guide. We will also spell out the full answer for players looking to simply get out of today unscathed.

Today's Wordle Answer - January 12, 2022

We'll begin with a few hints that directly relate to today's Wordle answer, but don't give it away immediately.

  [Tut] I Used This Python Script to Check a Website Every X Seconds for a Given Word
Posted by: xSicKxBot - 01-11-2023, 11:00 PM - Forum: Python - No Replies

I Used This Python Script to Check a Website Every X Seconds for a Given Word

5/5 – (1 vote)

I host multiple websites such as

Many of them use caching services to speed up the loading time for visitors worldwide. Consequently, when I do change a website, the change does often not appear immediately on the site (because the stale cached site is served up).

The Project



To ensure that my website is up-to-date, I wrote a simple Python script that helps me regularly check my website every few seconds to see if a certain word appears there.

Because I thought many people will probably have the same problem, I’ll share this code here. So, let’s get started! ?

? Project Challenge: How to write a Python script that reads content from a website every x seconds and checks if a specific word appears there?

The Code



I used the following code to accomplish this easily and quickly. You can copy&paste it, just make sure to adjust the highlighted url, word, and x variables to your need:

import requests
import time url = 'https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graph_partition'
word = 'finxter'
x = 60 # seconds between two requests # Repeat forever
while True: # Get the content from the website r = requests.get(url) # Check if word is on website if word in r.text: print("The word appears on the website") else: print("The word does not appear on the website") # Do nothing for some time (e.g., 60 seconds) to avoid spam requests time.sleep(x)

In this case, I check the Wikipedia page on Graph Partitioning if the keyword 'finxter' appears there. If you need to check another word on another URL, just change the variables accordingly.

Code Explanation



This code snippet uses the Python requests library to read from a website every two seconds and check if a certain word appears there.

You use the requests library to issue an HTTP request to the specified website and save the response in the variable r.

? Recommended: Python Request Library – Understanding get()

Then you check if the word appears in the response text using r.text.

  • If it does, it prints the message "The word appears on the website" and
  • If it does not, it prints the message "The word does not appear on the website".

Finally, the code pauses for two (or x!) seconds before making another request. This process is repeated continuously to ensure that the website is checked regularly.

You can stop the code by hitting CTRL+C.

The Love Ball Joins The Pokemon Poke Ball Replica Line Today

We're a little over a month away from Valentine's Day, but The Pokemon Company is feeling the love a little early, as it announces the Love Ball from Pokemon Gold and Silver will be the latest in the replica Poke Ball line made in partnership with The Wand Company.

The Love Ball replica, like the other Poke Balls in the line, is a die-cast metal model which measures around three inches in diameter, and it can be displayed either in a display case or separately using an included display ring. The model also has motion-sensing capabilities, which will light up the front of the ball whenever it is touched or the motion sensing is activated.

No Caption Provided

This is the 11th different Poke Ball design to be featured in the product line, with other available models including the Great Ball, Ultra Ball, Dusk Ball, Quick Ball, and the classic Poke Ball design. Three more models will be released throughout 2023, including the Dive Ball, Net Ball, and Luxury Ball.

After building an army of super soldiers as weapons of war, the authoritarians unwittingly seal their own fates by bringing online the ninja warrior known as Moonrider.

Ari Aster's Beau Is Afraid's First Trailer Is A Surrealist Nightmare

Ari Aster made a name for himself with back-to-back instant horror classics Hereditary and Midsommar, and now his long-awaited follow-up has arrived. Originally titled Disappointment Blvd, Beau Is Afraid is a decades-spanning surrealist horror film set in an alternate present.

The film stars Joaquin Phoenix as the titular character, who is a pleasant but anxious man. When his overbearing mother dies, Beau makes a journey home that involves some wild supernatural threats and maybe divine intervention.

Initially scheduled for release at the end of 2022, Beau Is Afraid is ready to leave its mark on horror fans, with a release date of April 21, 2023.
