Hmm. Thanks, though I’m seeking universal /offline so if I get URLs in other platforms, I won’t have to turn to the browser to purge them of junk. Or maybe this could be converted into a standalone program…

It rarely ever does anything in my experience.

Anyway, I built a URL-cleaning script in AutoHotkey, but that’s Windows-only; I, too, am on the hunt for a Linux equivalent. Maybe this could be done in SikuliX or Espanso, via a Python script, but I suck at Python so far.

I thought they were Southeast Asian, or maybe I’m recalling incorrectly.

Sorry to read about your family member’s situation!

Geez, this is the greatest dice-building game since… hmm, what was the first one?

I’ll be back.

… to check on your work. Keep it up, kiddo!

Oh, what, Blursed is a difficulty level? I didn’t realize you were citing something specifically from the game, haha. I’ve still just been playing the demo so far (there’s already so much in it), so maybe it lacks that!

the game makes it seem like sci-fi writers

What? No, it’s just Mio. Still, the dialogue is somewhat tropey; I hope it stays ultimately better than ITT.

Dang! On Hard?

macOS blocks tools like Espanso from viewing or modifying login input fields.

I wonder if SikuliX may be of interest to you, then. I just invoke KeePassXC’s built-in autotyper; it’s not too much more painful for me. Anyway, thanks for sharing! We certainly use it for very different things. Here’s a Reddit search URL generation script that I use sporadically:

  - trigger: '`rs'
    replace: '{{output}}'
    vars:
      - name: form
        type: form
        params:
          layout: |
            [[subdomain]]
            Subreddit (optional): [[subreddit]]
            Query:
            [[query]]
          fields:
            subdomain:
              type: choice
              values:
                - www
                - old
              default: old
      - name: output
        type: script
        params:
          args:
            - python
            - -c
            - |
              if '{{form.subreddit}}':
                print(f'https://{{form.subdomain}}.reddit.com/r/{{form.subreddit}}/search?q={{form.query}}&restrict_sr=on&include_over_18=on')
              else:
                print(f'https://{{form.subdomain}}.reddit.com/search?q={{form.query}}&include_over_18=on')

I wanna make a Lemmy equivalent of this, eventually…

Update: Okay, just did for my instance!

  - trigger: "`lemmy"
    propagate_case: true
    replace: "https://programming.dev/search?q=%7B%7Blemmy.query%7D%7D&type=%7B%7Blemmy.search%7D%7D&listingType=All&page=1&sort=%7B%7Blemmy.timeframe%7D%7D"
    vars:
      - name: "lemmy"
        type: form
        params:
          layout: |
            Query: [[query]]
            Filter: [[search]]Time Frame: [[timeframe]]
          fields:
            query:
            search:
              type: list
              values:
                - All
                - Comments
                - Communities
                - Posts
                - Users
                - URL
              default: All
            timeframe:
              type: list
              values:
                - TopWeek
                - TopMonth
                - TopThreeMonths
                - TopSixMonths
                - TopNineMonths
                - TopYear
                - TopAll
              default: TopAll

Oh, I was referring to the second one, yeah.

Well, we still have to get approval. But it just seems like they don’t mind as much. For example, I don’t know how many companies out there would be fine with installations of AutoHotkey and LibreOffice.

You didn’t like Prey?!?! Did you maybe take it at too hard of a difficulty? It was incredible!

Ooh, yes, the new Prey was a terrifying, incredible title! It’s almost too much for me to bear replaying, even, though it was incredibly gripping and is amazingly well-done.

No, it can’t! That’s a very interesting one indeed, but I wouldn’t risk moving to it at this time.

Vivaldi isn’t even fully open-source anyway, so it’s worth leaving regardless.

I work for a non-profit and they are way more lenient about what we would like to install as long as the job gets done.

Hmm… Special Containment Procedures? What other games are good in this sub-genre?

Same here, acquired through Epic Games’ giveaways. That was so bizarre to watch, haha: Dr. Yoshimi Tokui’s Guided Imagery Experience / Secret Mission // CONTROL

This is actually false, which was surprising to me upon hearing this podcast episode: The TED AI Show: AI therapy is here. What does it mean for you?

Some people actually prefer AI counselors because they never judge, they’re infinitely patient, and they remember everything. There is a role for them. For me, while they’ve always messed up code, they’ve typically shown me a different way to attempt to do something that I didn’t think of before, which eventually led me to newfound tinkering that got me to develop working code needed for my projects.

For this case, I think it’s the framework of AI being inserted into an existing institution that is causing this emotional stigma. If it was started separately as its own AI pep talk program or motivational system for social outreach and equality, then maybe it would thrive. So I think it can’t replace church activities simply because of their innate history.
