For some weird reason I can't access it, it just redirects me to this image about hacker news. Did he just configure his webserver to just universally display that image? Even if I manually enter the address into my address bar it does that so I assume that that's what he did...

The page sets a cookie when you visit it from hackernews and will redirect you to the image until you delete the cookie.

The cookie is new, AFAIK. The expressed contempt for hners is of course eternal.

The author of xscreensaver holds hn in a certain amount of contempt, yes. Just go with it.
