Ha, you wouldn’t want that attempt; with my programming skills, I’d only mess up the game!

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

Interesting. I wish Hangman would tell you what your missed word at the end was, though.

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.

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.

Yeah, TBH it’s still probably not actual “AI” and is really just complex, inaccurate autocomplete—proven by the fact that GPT 2.0 can be run entirely in Microsoft Excel lol (even though it’s certainly a massive table). So it’s just a buzzword…

Nevertheless, I think if it’s free and open-source, I can mildly get behind AI usage in certain situations. The profiteering models I have more of a problem with.

Huh, I didn’t realize that All including all federated communities must be a Thunder-specific feature.

What? No, use “All” to browse through federated instances and then subscribe to any interesting communities across the whole Fediverse. Then stick to the “subscribed” feed and only occasionally recheck “All” if you’re bored and looking for new communities with none in particular; otherwise, run searches for them.

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.

I’d never heard of Betterbird until now and wanna check it out, too!

Did you put in a request for this? And sure, I’m always interested in seeing how others use it—especially to complex levels.

Whoa, yeah, F-Droid is perhaps the biggest FOSS Android app market, an alternative to the Play Store. I suggest navigating through it using Droid-ify. Enable visibility of all repositories in the top-right corner to be able to see more apps. Even Bitwarden has an official presence in F-Droid to accommodate Play Store avoiders, etc.

Oh. In that case, I just use Syncthing for now, since I only have 3-4 devices.

Its .YML formatting is really clunky. It feels like it takes up twice as much line space as .AHK (for example), which can do a lot of this kind of stuff in a single line. But I wanna go cross-platform and this is all I can find…

If you’re an Android user: scroll through F-Droid, download interesting apps, and then hunt for problems or try to come up with interesting, helpful features. For example, I could really use a live stopwatch widget in: https://f-droid.org/packages/com.best.deskclock/

Google Clock has it, but this app doesn’t for some reason.

MuseScore Studio can open .XML and .MXL files, if that’s what you mean.

Or to be specific as of late, “MuseScore Studio.” There have been… a lot of company changes over the past 2 years…
