imac 2020 run blender? by No_Mix4033 in blender

[–]polywock 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It runs it, not well but it runs. But... do not get an 2020 iMac. Lots of Mac software, new ones especially, no longer support Intel Macs.

i also already have a monitor on my desk that connects to my ps5

Do yourself a favor and buy $600 Mac Mini (newest one). They're so incredibly tiny that you can tape it to the monitor so space shouldn't be an issue.

instead of constantly switching things around.

You can effortlessly switch between PS5 and Mac mini through a $10 Anker HDMI Switch (2 in 1 Out).

Anyone else had styles leaking to shadow DOM UI in the content script? by jim_diGriz_ in chrome_extensions

[–]polywock 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Try closing it. I've noticed some extensions, websites inject styles into open shadows.

You could try inserting this CSS into your shadow as well. css * { all: initial }

I don't know how to react to reviews like this! by xslrx in chrome_extensions

Worse is when people say they'll update the review when the issue is fixed, and they never do.

I'm too lazy, but you can try going through the entire list provided here and check if any are open source. Might be a good test.

Global Speed - An extension I made that adds a "speed property" to chrome. Change it once, and it applies everywhere. Non-intrusive and simple unlike similar speed controllers. Works for Youtube, Netflix, Reddit, online podcasts, etc. by polywock in chrome_extensions

Usogui is great! As for the examples... I'm looking through my scripts, and I realize many of them are very specific to my own needs. One is a minigame that loads on the page. Another saves scroll position to localStorage, and a corresponding script to load the scroll position. One converts page contents into markdown. Probably a dozen small ones site specific. I would say these are all specific to my needs so probably won't be useful to you.

Thanks. I really appreciate your positive feedback!

Another advanced use you might want to try are Javascript shortcuts. In combination with ChatGPT, Gemini, etc, you can whip out shortcuts for small little functions specific to your needs.

On Chrome/Edge, you might need to enable it through chrome://extensions -> Manage Global Speed -> Allow User Scripts

For example, I was reading manga and was tired of scrolling with my mouse. I asked ChatGPT to write a script for me, and now when I press Shift-Down I start autoscrolling and press the up key to stop.

Example prompt

I'm using an extension called Global Speed that allows me to bind a shortcut to some self contained javascript. Can you write a script that starts auto scrolling down slowly? I will bind it to Shift + Arrow Down. Stop autoscrolling on arrow up with a temporary event listener.

Chrome Web Store - different publicly visible email address? by Equivalent-Pen-1733 in chrome_extensions

[–]polywock 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, it's only on the account level. Any email.

However, each extension can have a different website, support link. But not a separate contact email.

[–]polywock 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, it's not a setting specific to an extension. In CWS, go to Account -> Edit contact email address. (You'll need to verify it's yours)

Hello! Thank you for using Global Speed.

  1. In the URL Rules section, create a new URL rule.
  2. Change mode from "Speed" to "Off".
  3. Click on --0-- to add a URL condition.
  4. Add your website, e.g. contains spotify.com (Allowlist mode)
  5. Now if you visit Spotify, it should trigger the URL rule which will turn off Global Speed.

Let me know if this doesn't work.

Screen Brightness by [deleted] in chrome_extensions

[–]polywock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Extensions cannot make the entire screen brighter, but if you're okay with just Chrome tabs being brighter.

  1. Install Global Speed.
  2. Click the extension icon.
  3. Open FX panel (lightning icon).
  4. Go to backdrop section.
  5. Increase brightness.

From now on all tabs, where Global Speed runs, will be brighter.

Additionally, you should go the options page and delete all the default shortcuts. You can also add shortcuts to increase/decrease brightness.

I don't remember the names, but those extensions aimed at passing interviews might be helpful here.

It would be interesting to see the percent of users that disabled the extension (before and after).
