@k00b @ek not sure if this is a bug or a feature of the dupe functionality: fact is that links containing `.html` does not show up as dupe when it does not contain `.html` at the end and vice versa.

it happened today with https://stacker.news/items/1005590/r/supratic and https://stacker.news/items/1005600/r/supratic, if I'd have noticed the first one in dupes I'd not have click **post**

tested again with `https://geopathicstress.blogspot.com/2008/02/tools-and-techniques-bovis-scale_17` and `https://geopathicstress.blogspot.com/2008/02/tools-and-techniques-bovis-scale_17.html`

apparently they get treated as different urls
