do you have any self written software that only you use anon?What is it,what does it do?
Nah just scripts for work
>>108757792yes, i run my own version of PRISM by taping into whatever websockets i find while browsing the internet to save their chatlogs so i can read them in bed and search for all occurrences of nigger
I have a little program that adds a color palette to a picture, I made it just to test shaders, but years later I still use it to try out color combinations. I'm sure any image software could do that but mine already works and I'm too lazy to learn

A while ago I wrote a browser plugin that reveals hidden number plates on autotrader listings so I can look up a cars MOT history when the seller tried to hide it.They eventually patched the security hole in their graphQL endpoint that I was using so it stopped working.
Since AI got good, *tons*.For example, I have a full system that uses a "state machine" to handle my smart home climate control. Works like a dream, saves me money on my electricity bill, and does a better job that any human could ever dream of.The crazy part is, even though I'm certain this could be of great use to many people, I have no intention to release it to the public. The reason? Software is *cheap* nowadays; if someone wants something like this, they can just spin it up in *minutes* or *hours*, and the end result will be even more personalized to *their* needs than any piece of software I have written.Fully personalized computing is fucking wild.

>>108757792I have too many meme images and I'm too lazy to properly tag them or to set up immich so I created a partially vibecoded python qt thing that allows me to search for memes on my meme folder by their AI generated description. It uses a Florence 2 model that is quite lightweight for its performance, but it's quite old, dunno if better lightweight or more performant models have been released.

Just a yt-dlp wrapper so I can forward the IG/FB links my mom and coworkers send me to termux, so I can roflcoptor without accounts.Created my own project zomboid server tools last year and wrote a copy paste Don't Starve Together server setup guide.Currently learning C++ and QT so I can start working on a GUI for yt-dlp for easier library management + rsync -> NAS.Python blows ass and I'd rather make an electron app than use python outside of microcontrollers.

>>108757792Yes. Simple C program that encrypts and decrypts data using chacha20 algorithm. Point it at a directory, and every file in that directory is encrypted and merged into one big data file. To retrieve and decrypt a file, you have to know its name. I use it for game assets and game save files. Also have a primitive string replacement program. Point it at a file, specify a string to replace along with the string to replace it with, and it will replace all occurrences. I don't even know why I made this one because I'm pretty sure there's already a command line tool that comes with most operating systems that does this in a more robust way. Mine doesn't even work properly on windows kek.
>>108762228Oh and also technically the games I make are software that only I use, since literally no one plays them.
>>108762242>>108762228Oh and also the level editor, super half assed. and halfway through I stopped programming the buttons and made it so you had to type in commands into the terminal to do anything. So like most of the buttons that are visible don't even do anything and I just never got rid of them.

You're not a real power user unless you have at least a few scripts that you use regularly but you're afraid to edit or replace because the code you wrote is arcane autism.

>>108762690It is really, truly fascinating to me how just four years ago nobody outside of a nice group of enthusiasts had ever heard of AI. Yet, now that we have literal *thinking computers* that can understand intent from natural language and build complex programs and websites with better coding than 99.99% of human programmers could even dream of doing, we still have haters in places like this.We BUILT GOD and all you fuckers do is move the goalpost.

>>108765404>what about all these irrelevant strawmans i made up to distract from you pointing out my immense retardation?
I have a bunch of bash scripts - not really self-made 'software', but it's nice to automate stuff for your own, hyper-niche use case. For example, I use a Nokia flip phone as my main device, but I like having something to listen to at the gym - and I don't like having to manually manage my audio all the time.My computer scans a list of podcast rss feeds every 6 hours, downloads all new episodes, translates them to .mp3 if necessary (phone doesn't play any other formats well) and deletes ones that are >1 month old. When I plug in my phone, it automatically syncs (without me having to do anything) the last 3 episodes from each podcast to the SD card inside it and deletes the oldest one if there are >3 episodes per podcast on the device. I plug in my phone to my computer every few nights to charge, and I don't have to think about anything at all. The scripts are basically just some hooks into gpodder software.Another script converts my bank statements and matches the correct contra accounts, so I can easily import my financials into Gnucash, a bookkeeping software. Just little things to make boring life tasks a little easier.

The internet is truly shit now because zoomers have zero cultural identity and let me tell you I wish they fucking did. I wish they had their own part of the web but they are here SHITTING IT UP.
>>108758000woah haha this little nigger woke up on the wrong side of the dildo
>>108757792Yeah, a few>PC fan controlI made my own board based on a dev MCU board, wrote the firmware plus the control program on the PC side. It runs in the background and controls my fan speed, I made this many years ago because there was no good solution for case fan speed management that supported the mobo I had then.>old PDA application that displays hardware info from my PCI have a PDA from like 2006 on my desk (pic related), it runs a client that connects to my PC and displays hardware stats on the PDA (temperatures, clock speeds, power consumption, etc.)>monitor brightness control based on ambient lightThis one uses an Arduino as a "light sensor" and applies brightness profiles to my monitors based on how bright the room itself is. Very useful, no idea how people deal with the same brightness in bright daylight and at night.These 3 I basically use every day, all the time. I mean the PDA isn't turned on all the time because I don't need to look at the stats, but the fan & brightness control programs do run all the time I have my PC on. I wrote some other things that are either minor (scripts and shit) or I'm no longer using, these are the major ones I'd say.
>>108765404>What the fuck is the point of having a car if I can't even use it to wash my dishes?!?!?!Do you also refer to your car as "GOD" and believe people "built GOD" because we can make cars?

>>108757792I do have a few>WombieStarted working with a web development team where my boss gets me clients and I work under them helping them in their own projects. In order to track the user's hours, a program called Hubstuff was agreed upon in order to be widely used with these firms. It works as a timer that you press play and it starts counting your work time, it also tracks user's activity by calculating the existence of a keystroke or mouse movement in a given second and outputs it as 1% activity from 100 each 10 minutes. Anyways I figured since I researched how hubstuff works I would go ahead and code my own Zombie script that basically takes the current activity of the day, how much time you've already spent before launching the script and what's the user's activity goal (since some firms enforce a minimum threshold) and "Wombie" goes on to hide in the background, waits for the user's activity to idle and starts to emulating user activity by hitting harmless keystrokes and moves the mouse to "points of interest" on the screen. It also pauses when the user comes back online but doesn't forget to constantly calculate how much activity is happening and adapts the maths from there on. I wrote this script in python just so I could finish this asap
