FOSS for Everyone! / Image Optimizer
Last post by Administrator - Dec 31, 2025, 06:39 PM
A SEO audit revealed that my images weren't "web optimized." Naturally the only thing to do was deploy an image Optimizer.

Off Topic / Re: Typo Library

Another domain related foible:

Many of you have probably heard of the song 8675309/Jenny by Tommy Tutone.

There's even a domain dedicated to it: 8675309.xyz

However, sometimes memory is fickle. When hunting for a good cheap domain I thought I'd stumbled on a winner with 8576309.xyz, which is now pointed to this topic.

Off Topic / Typo Library
Last post by Administrator - Dec 27, 2025, 08:23 PM
One night after drinking several glasses of wine I was browsing a domain registrar and purchased the domain library.com - or I thought I did. Truth be told the screen was a little fuzzy.

The next day I was the humble owner of LLBRARY.COM.

Since I couldn't think of a better use for it, I redirected it to this thread, in solidarity with all the others who typo relentlessly.

LLBRARY.COM expires Mar 13, 2026.

I'm accepting donations via PayPal donations to keep this domain alive in fellowship with my thick-thumbed brothers and sisters.

I'm also accepting offers for LLBRARY.COM if someone is interested.

FOSS for Everyone! / QR Code Generator
Last post by Administrator - Dec 27, 2025, 07:40 PM
This app has a story.

I discovered the hard way that copilot wasn't able to duplicate QR codes.

I next ran a search for qr code generators online.
Each of the first 3 results required confirming an email address before creating my simple code.

This dissatisfied me enormously and I logged into my RAD server and was able to have a code generator online faster than I could confirm an email, and I didn't have to surrender any personal information to do it.

I want to extend to the general public the same courtesy: the ability to generate a simple binary code without being compelled to divulge personal information.
