      A good alternative to Bitwarden is KeePass/KeepassXC btw

        Hm i switched from KeePass to Bitwarden because the latter lets me use my passwords on multiple devices and as a Firefox extension that enters my credentials at a shortcut.

        Can you elaborate why you think KeePass is better?

          I think it’s more flexible. Also, due to the databases just being normal files you can sync them with syncthing between your devices.

          In my case I run a NAS at home on which they’re stored so I don’t need to sync them. I just open them directly from the NAS.

      I literally just used this site last week to set up a price alert for a purchase.

      Noticed via their chart that the item I wanted to buy (an air purifier) went on sale every few weeks from $340 to $199. I set the alert for $200, and the next day it emailed me saying the price had dropped. Saved me 140 bucks which was awesome.

      Works for Amazon.ca links as well.

    It plots every genre of music on a 2D spectrum (“The calibration is fuzzy, but in general down is more organic, up is more mechanical and electric; left is denser and more atmospheric, right is spikier and bouncier.”)

    You can click on any genre and get band recommendations.

    Or you can search for a specific band and find other bands plotted similarly.

      As someone who doesn’t use Spotify, this is amazing for music discovery. I should have been in bed a while ago but keep finding new groups to listen to.

        From the description, this site seems to either be a Spotify research project, or at least powered by Spotify data in some way. It’s not clear to me.

        Every Noise at Once is an ongoing attempt at an algorithmically-generated, readability-adjusted scatter-plot of the musical genre-space, based on data tracked and analyzed for 6,259 genre-shaped distinctions by Spotify as of 2023-07-12.

        Personally, I cancelled my spotify account and moved to a combination of Plex and Tidal, but this project is just too cool not to use.

      Maybe this will help.

      I LOVE “dissolved girl” but I’m not as Gaga about the rest of the band’s material. That sultry style cut with that music tempo is amazing.

      It’s like Finger Eleven has their their one massive departure track ‘paranoid’ – all good, but very different.

      I’ll be checking this in the hopes it’ll match a track and give me more sexy molasses for my brain.

    It’s basically CHATGPT but with actual connection to the internet (so it gets its data from actual websites) and is also specifically designed for developers.

    Without endorsing these liberal American news outlets,

    https://text.npr.org/

    https://lite.cnn.com/

    Ad-free, js-free, tracker-free, bs-free news articles. Just text. Honestly, it’s a bit of a shock to me that these even exist.

      CNN is now owned by a MAGA-loving billionaire. Definitely not a liberal news source at all - hence the many changes happening at a slow trickle.
