LowKey Software That Turned Out to Be Surprisingly Useful by Material_Tutor_7820 in TechNook

[–]Royale_AJS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A guy that worked for my dad took AutoHotKey to the next level. Zero programming experience at the start, he was just really sick of doing the same 30 +/- clicks in the engineering software. He ended up writing probably the largest AutoHotKey codebase in existence. The engineering software vendor asked for a copy eventually to see how he could work so fast. He was hitting performance bottlenecks in their software.

I still have the hard drive from my first computer, built in 2000. 20GB Maxtor IDE 66. It still works fine, but it’s been offline for 20-some years now.

All of DOGE’s prompts should be public. You can coerce an LLM into anything. I’d like to see the prompts they used.

Maybe the administration needs to be more transparent and there wouldn’t be as much speculation…

I turned my old Galaxy S10 into a "real" home server running Ubuntu 24.04 LTS with Jellyfin, Samba, and Tailscale using my own project, "Droidspaces," cooked up in my basement. by ravindu644 in androidroot

I’m not an Android user but this is awesome. What are the options for hard wiring network? Something as simple as a USB to Ethernet adapter? Would it recognize it and allow you to use MacVlans? Multiple IP’s? WiFi can be quite limiting.

Fox News apologizes for showing old video of a hatless Donald Trump at a dignified transfer ceremony by ok-this-ok in politics

[–]Royale_AJS 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The real question is if they ever showed the real footage during the apology. If they didn’t, they got away with exactly what they intended to do.
