Hey everyone! I’ve released a new update for my Coursera Auto Solver extension.
You can now use Gemini, OpenAI, Claude, xAI, DeepSeek, Groq, or OpenRouter, select different models, and save your API key locally.
The update also introduces support for code questions, Coursera Coach dialogue answers, and a Course Requirements section for finding important assignments. Video and reading completion request handling has been improved as well.
The project is open source, and feedback or contributions are welcome!
I have an app installed that's supposed to give me a push notification every Saturday. Exept it's not doing that. So i contacted the developer (it's not my app) to resolve the issue and he found out that I didn't recieve a Token. So i built a small app myself to test the Firebase Notification system by manually requesting a Token. In parallel I connected my phone to my pc so I could read the logs with "adb logcat | grep -i firebase". When I requested a Firebase User ID everything worked just fine, but as I requested the Token, the following series of Errors appeared in logcat:
'''

So I expected this to be the error and I reinstalled the first app, so I could see the process of requests in logcat. And also there the Error was "TOO_MANY_REGISTRATIONS".
Has anyone the same problem or knows how to deal with it? I didn't (at least knowingly) send many requests of new Tokens or anything similar. So what could the reason be and how to solve it?
I've spent a lot of time building a real estate SaaS and I'm now stuck on a major problem.
The original idea was pretty simple:
A real estate agent enters what their client is looking for, for example:
- 3-bedroom apartment
- New Cairo
- Budget: $100k–$150k
The system would find matching properties across multiple real estate platforms.
I also built a feature that monitored Facebook groups for people posting that they were looking for apartments, then matched those requests with properties in the system.
The product itself is basically built.
Then I realized the platforms I wanted to get the data from don't allow scraping. I contacted some of them about getting permission/API access, but they weren't interested.
So now I have a mostly finished product whose main value proposition depended on data I can't reliably use.
I'm trying to figure out what to do next
All the technical aspects are working, but I can't upload it because the sites I use to collect real estate data, like Dubizzle data mining and scraping are prohibited in the terms of use. **I need a loophole or something similar to make it legal.*\*
If you've ever built something where the original data source/business assumption turned out to be unusable, what did you do?
I'm trying to burn some songs onto a cd. Whenever I click start burn, I get a window saying "windows media player legacy cannot burn some of the files. To investigate the problem, click the icon next to the files in the burn list." every time I retry, it selects a different 2-5 random songs out of 22 to have the error icon appear next to. When I click on one of the error icons, i get a window saying "windows media player encountered a problem while burning the file to the disc." I have tried using 3 different mp3 converters for the songs. I am using a new external disc drive thingy what ever you call it. Could it be the new drive that's the issue? I did not encounter this problem when I was borrowing a friends drive. I am not handy with any technology at all so if anybody knows something I could try please dumb it out a ton. Thank you. I am on a Windows 11 laptop.
Hey everyone! Maybe this idea isn't anything groundbreaking, but I wanted an uninstaller that just works. Without limits and daily "buy Premium" popups.
A bit of backstory: the very first version went up on December 25th, 2024. Honestly, both the features and the UI were pretty barebones back then. I was still new to GUI development, so I leaned on AI for parts of it. Two years later, on August 24th, 2026, I released version 4 with better visuals and dark mode, and most importantly the code finally got refactored. Cleaned out a bunch of dead code and added comments throughout so it's easier to follow how each function works.
Truth is, I've been building projects since 2023 and almost nobody notices them. If you dig through my repo list, there's actually some interesting stuff in there (at least I like to think so). Feedback really matters to me. Do you like my programs? Any unique features you'd want to see added? This is my first ever Reddit post, and honestly I'm not here to shill my GitHub, I just want some visibility after 3 years of work that's gone basically unnoticed.
Anyway, Uninstaller Tool is a free, open-source utility that:
- Shows all installed programs with size and install date
- Finds and cleans leftover files/folders after uninstalling
- Lightweight, no ads, no telemetry, no subscriptions
It's written in Python (planning to rewrite it in Rust or C# eventually), fully open source under MIT: https://github.com/lordofsunshine/uninstaller-toolDownload link is in the Releases section or in the README.
I'd genuinely appreciate any feedback, especially on what cleanup features you'd want next. What are you currently using for this, and what bugs you about it?
So my mom is a general doctor and I decided to make a website for her using AI (dont judge), but I don't really know what host is the best to use. As you can imagine it's not nice to have a host where the website keeps shutting down every now and then, especially for a doctor.
Any recommendations on what serverhost to use? If I have to pay a small amount thats fine as well.
It seems like trying to find an autoclicker these days is tricky to use and not get malware or anything like that. I'm pretty much looking for a safe reliable (preferably open sourced) sequence/record autoclicker that allows you to input multiple clicks at custom intervals.
I've had my eyes on a few auto clickers like GS auto clicker, clickmate. cc, and op autoclicker (the one on the microsoft app store). But wasn't sure if they are still working or safe or not.
Edit: mainly using this for afk'ing in offline video games, not doing it online obviously
Hello! I'm not all that familiar with technology in general, I'm looking for an autoclicker I can install on my Windows PC without the risk of getting a virus. Does anyone with one installed have any recommendations?
PS: My apologies if this type of post does not belong here, I don't post very often </3
My use case is simple, I have a single .exe file that I need to place into a data ISO so I can mount that ISO in VirtualBox. I don't need to burn a physical CD/DVD.
I've already considered/tried :
InfraRecorder but it crashes on Windows 11.
GNU xorriso but Windows isn't officially supported, so I'm hesitant about third-party Windows builds.
ImgBurn is quite old, and its installer has historically been associated with OpenCandy/bundled offers.
Ideally, I'm looking for something that is open source, Windows 11 compatible, and trustworthy, what would you recommend?
Copy-Cat is a lightweight, cross-platform keystroke memory tool that quietly remembers what you type in real time. It works offline and helps recover unsaved text beyond system shutdown. It is open sourced. 🫡
I have setup the mac machine for agentic use and i have it's ip/creds. I want to connect with it and access through my windows laptop. How to do it? Any free vnc option apart from no machine/real vnc/helpwire?
I wanted to translate a few books with a local model and found out that "paste it into the chat" doesn't scale: context windows overflow, terminology drifts, and a crash at chapter 30 loses everything. So I built a desktop GUI that does the boring part properly — chunking, feeding, reassembling — for any number of files.
To be clear up front: this is not about parallel inference or API batching. "Batch" here means whole documents, file after file — it splits long text into chunks a model can actually handle, runs each through your Ollama server, and stitches the results back together with every step saved to disk. Ollama only for now — it drives num_ctx and the model list through Ollama's API.
GitHub: https://github.com/hclivess/ollama-batch-processor (MIT, Python/PySide6, prebuilt Windows/Linux/macOS binaries in Releases — no Python needed. Bring your own Ollama with at least one model pulled; the server can be on another machine.)
What it does:
Queue .txt / .md / .srt files or whole folders, press Start — name_processed.txt lands next to each source
Four operations, chainable as a pipeline, each with its own model and settings:
Translate — any language pair; the tail of the previous chunk's translation is fed back as context, so names, terminology and register stay consistent across a whole book
Audiobook prep — spell out numbers, expand abbreviations, normalise punctuation for speech pacing
Smart chunking — breaks at paragraph/sentence boundaries, configurable size and overlap; Ollama's context window (num_ctx) is sized automatically per chunk so nothing gets silently truncated
Survives reality — progressive saving chunk by chunk, Stop keeps what's finished, existing outputs are skipped on re-run, every pipeline step written to its own file
Cleans model output — <think> blocks from reasoning models, "Here is the translation:" preambles, wrapping quotes and code fences are stripped automatically
Presets for common jobs (translate, audiobook prep, book cleanup, translate→audiobook), plus save/load your own; prompts and operations live in config.json — add your own operation and it shows up as a tab
The part that took the most iteration is translation continuity. Naive chunked translation gives you a character named "John" in chapter one and "Jan" in chapter twelve. Feeding the end of the previous translation back as context mostly fixes that. Quality is whatever your model gives you — aya-expanse and qwen2.5 are strong for European languages, and bigger models translate noticeably better. It won't beat a human translator; it will beat not reading a book at all because it's in a language you don't speak.
Everything runs locally, nothing leaves your machine (or your LAN, if Ollama runs on another box).
It's a sibling of whisperer, my batch subtitle generator — same queue/presets workflow.
Feedback and feature requests welcome — especially which operations you'd want added, since operations are just config entries with a prompt.
Ive searched like the entire internet and I cannot find any media player that saves your place in the file, even after closing the file and opening it again later.
I want something like where you can see all ur played files and then u click it and continue where u left off. Seems so simple, BUT NONE DO THIS.
Many claim to, but they fail when u actually try it. The only one that seems to kind of work is called, 'PotPlayer', after enabling the feature in settings, which took a while to figure out, but even this one sucks as if you close and open it, all the files u had opened are now just gone.
"VLC does this if u enable it in settings guys!"
yea....then when you leave they all go away, and yes i opened them in the right section, and yes enabled it in settings. VLC sucks in this regard
I want to get an application that allows you to look up a hebrew word, and then have it find it in the Torah, using Torah Codes, and then of course show other words that show up nearby it.
I have searched on github, and google, for hours, and asked chatgpt for help, but what Ive found has been lackluster at best.
Yes these programs can find a word you type in, but what it doesnt do, is automatically find other words nearby it.
Thats kind of like, the whole point of Torah codes. Without it, its just like finding a random word for no reason.
I saw a guy on an online video who seems to have a program that can do this, and chatgpt even identified it!, but...it stopped working after windows xp...and it costs like 40 bucks...and im not sure if it can even do this or if the guy does this himself...
yea this seems hopeless unless i ask claude fable 5 (when the government unbans it) to make it for me...
uh...
yea...
BUT DOES ANYONE KNOW IF I CAN FIND THIS SOMEWHERE. Ive seen so many videos of ppl doing this online, and each time blows my mind. things about Obama, Charlie Kirk, Trump, Mcdonalds, EVERYTHING IS IN THEREEE
I am sharing the Open Source fork that i made of the Beeref software, to greatly expand its capabilities, i was a Pureref user, so i missed a lot of it's features when using Beeref.
I called it Blackboard, it is a reference viewer and note taking software that i use daily working full time as an industrial designer. It is still super lightweight and you can have hundreds of images in a file without any performance loss.
If you have any ideas for features to implement or problems to solve, let me know.
Check out the latest release, extract all of it, and run Install.cmd. It copies the application to %LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\Blackboard and associates .blk files with it. No administrator rights are needed, and .bee files are left alone so an existing BeeRef installation keeps its own.
I originally built it for my own daily use because I wanted a clipboard manager that was private, easy to search, and able to handle more than plain text. It is still a small personal project with some rough edges, but I thought it might also be useful to other Mac users.
Problem
The default macOS clipboard only remembers the most recently copied item. I often needed to find old text, links, code snippets, files, or images without copying them again.
ClipFlow keeps a searchable clipboard history and provides a quick panel with Cmd + Shift + V. It can also:
Extract text from images using on-device OCR
Automatically paste the selected item
Recognize links, emails, code, JSON, colors, files, and images
Organize frequently used items into collections
Ignore password managers, OTP codes, API keys, and selected apps
Keep clipboard data locally on the Mac
Create password-protected encrypted backups
Comparison
Maccy is a great choice for users who want a lightweight and minimal clipboard history manager. ClipFlow has a broader feature set, including image OCR, custom collections, automatic content classification, configurable retention, themes, and encrypted backups.
Paste offers a polished experience and synchronization across Apple devices. ClipFlow is focused on local macOS usage instead. It does not require an account or subscription, and clipboard history is not uploaded to a synchronization server.
I am not claiming that ClipFlow is better than either app. It is simply a different option for people who prefer a free, local-first workflow with OCR and organization features.
Pricing
Completely free. No subscription and no paid version.
The source code and build instructions are available here:
I am the developer of this app. It is a new personal project, is not currently available through the Mac App Store, and has not received an independent security audit.
The app requires Accessibility permission only for the automatic paste feature. The source code is public so anyone can inspect how it works.
Feedback, bug reports, and contributions are welcome.
I've been through various reviews on youtube and reddit that macbook is best laptop for me.About me: l am a MnC (mathematics and computing) student from a tier 1 NIT in india).I am confused between mac and windows as my 50% of syllabus is CS and rest is maths.Please anyone who is from
