I made the biggest donations in my life via Watsi. Thank you for building this site. I love you guys have an API as well. I thought of building an app on top of your API but never got round to complete it. If you are curious, I can share; I think there may be an opportunity to capture value in free giveaways and turn it into charity. Many people try to give away their things quickly on fb marketplace or letgo, ...what if they could ask for a donation to a charity? I know there are challenges like, what if they want to return. But there has to be a way to solve this with an escrow service or something. A similar model already works in used, 2nd stores that work for charities.

This idea is great!! I really think this can work, i think its a win-win situation form the buyer and even the seller. Thanks for sharing it!

So basically Musicbrainz Picard, but for audiobooks?

volteret4 · 10 months ago

No, this is a server app for your podcasts and audiobooks, picard is the best music metadata tagger imho, but they arent related

DNS blockers aren't good enough to block all ads. Especially YouTube. Plus, many browsers will ignore DNS without configuration and same for phone apps. While this can be fine for me it's not for everyone else in my family nor guests. And that's before we talk about Apple...

If anyone has a solution I'd love to learn.

For android there is New Pipe and some forks.

I prefer to pay my yt loved channels than ser a fucking add

Hah, this now prompted me to ask ChatGPT to tell me about Erowid and the most remarkable things it read there, and we're chatting along over bad trips and it telling me how apparently heroin can't fix a bad trip, and it comes up with quotes from which I have to assume that they are just hallucinations, but "funny" ones if one thinks about them just having gotten made up by an AI:

> Every bad sensation was magnified a thousandfold because there was nothing to filter or rationalize it. Pain didn't feel like something I was experiencing—it felt like everything I was.

> I was convinced I had broken something inside my mind permanently, that I'd never be normal again. The terror of that idea became its own reality.

but also the nice things are interesting to chat about

  Users frequently say things like:
  “There was no past or future, only this moment.”
  “Who I was didn't matter anymore; I just existed.”

or "That's one of the most interesting paradoxes people report: thinking continues, but the thinker disappears."

generally a fun thing to chat about with it.

I think people belive that there is no thinker because sometimes your ego dissapears, at least fase out. Our thoughts and opinions arent relevant anymore. Thats muy experience and opinión btw.

volteret4 · a year ago

If anyone is looking for a similar cross-platform and open source solution, CopyQ[1] is handy and scriptable.

volteret4 · 2 years ago

+1 to Copyq, IMO best clioboard manager. It has a lot of functions, yet simple to use as is.

Have you tried CopyQ? I've not used it on MacOS, but on Windows and Linux it can exclude based off window title: https://copyq.readthedocs.io/en/latest/faq.html#how-to-omit-...

volteret4 · 2 years ago

+1 to copyq. It has a lot of funcionality, you can exclude apps to save clip on log (passwords managers), yo can do personal snippets, images, even create your own scripts.... It has a bit deeper than anything else I tried and yet simply enough to run as is....
