Hurr durr Iran killing their own citizens


I found it easier to point my AI at JDownloader's source and have it rebuild the downloaders for certain hosts using python. It works the same without all the bloat.


Isn't there pyLoad already?


There is no code sharing anymore.

Other people's code is a security risk.

Just point Claude to a project, and make it clone it, in a safe way.


I might be falling for Poe's law, but how is code written by a server you don't control less of a security risk?


"make no mistakes"


I forgot to consider that it is a Downloader we're talking about. For such a program I'd take control over the used technologies. (E.g. tell Claude to use system wget/curl so that part will stay updated.)

Otherwise I haven't heard of Claude putting backdoors into small programs, or leaving critical vulnerabilities in them, after asking to reevaluate security and test it.


Aria2 is the way. The only thing missing for me was a way to monitor progress in the menu bar, so I built this

I kinda dig Impacter. It looks quite stylish IMO.


I wonder if this also creates people with huge heads and short necks like Flux Klein does.


Most editors format and highlight markdown syntax as bold, italic or strike through, but I have never seen the same thing for html. They only highlight the html-specific parts leaving the content unstyled.


Look into ghidra + mcp + any AI.


That would require a lot of courage


That would require them to accept it was the wrong decision.

I am doing the only thing I can: to vote with my wallet.

My current phone is a Sony Xperia and it has the headphone jack. I am listening to Hi-Fi music from Tidal right now, using the jack, and wired Crinacle earbuds.



That is a problem that Linux has, but this is actually one time that it really isn't. Pipewire is flat-out better than pulse, while including sufficient compatibility that it really does just supersede the thing.


Yeah pretty funny when apps are using alsa, pulseaudio and pipewire all on the same system!
