So apparently this has been around for 15 years? I would have bought this years ago, but it never showed up on any of my searches... google, reddit, producthunt, alternativeto... feel like I just shifted into another dimension where this has apparently... always existed?

I feel the same way. I've searched for sqlite guis many times and this has never come up.

I wonder if we could design a system where everybody in the populace chips in a little bit, and the people buy some representatives of our own.

I have been thinking the same. Use their own tools against them.

Nice. Currently I have to set CSS custom properties with JS to achieve the same effect.

Wonderful to see how CSS gets a usable random function before JS does.

Maybe "usable" is your qualifier but what's wrong with Math.random()?

I remember saving my incantation to download and convert a youtube playlist (in the form of a txt file with a list of URLs) and this being the only way to back up Chrome music bookmark folders.

Then it stopped working until I updated youtube-dl and then that stopped working once I lost the incantation :<

How is it fixed today? I'm not in the bitcoin game but doesn't the transaction have to be mined and that takes at least 10 minutes?

I have the opposite problem, after one glass of water I feel full and drinking any more makes me nauseous. It’s a struggle to get sufficient hydration during the day.

Don't drink the whole glass at once?

Curious if there'a any demo apps that are actually deployed that were built with Lurk. It would be nice to see a whole end to end app working, not just example Lurk code.

YouTube is the last Google service I still use. If I'm asked to verify my age, that would be intrusive enough for me to finally break free of the company completely. That would probably be a good thing.

finally, what took so long lmao

if im being honest i care more about multiple local ai apps on my desktop all hooking into the same ollama instance rather than all downloading their own models as part of the app so i have like multiple 10s of gbs of repeated weights all over the place because apps dont talk to each other

what does it take for THAT to finally happen

noman-land · a month ago
I, too, dream of this.
