I would but this is totally just for me and it runs in nginx / php and I am going to guess you would just barf all over it.

But here’s a post where I asked for help on this subject, and where I got the idea to write my own app. There are a number of other ideas in there, and one really good HTML/JS app from github that does the same thing but is way better.

Oh! I just did this (used an AI chatbot to help me code a web app) to easily resize images.

It was a great experience and I only edited about 5% of the code it provided. I used the bot via DuckDuckGo. The app is simple, eh, but it works. Would vibe code again fer sher.

Shred the corporations, you say?

Yup, the Lemmy search feature must be broken again. ;)

But that shouldn’t stop people giving OP new ideas. :)

And a bunch of cycling news.

Every time this question comes up, I look at my list and realize a few feeds have stopped. So now I’m watching here for some new ideas. TIA y’all.

Hey, hey, you gotta tag that as NSFW. So sexy

My hot take: kids should have to learn computers on a TRS-80 now.

But, copying games onto it from magazines was the way back then. It’s how we learned.

Now there’s a name I haven’t heard in a long time. But same, same

Going from a radio shack trs-80 model 3 to those desktops was great.

Except mine didn’t have floppy drives. I only had a cassette player for storage.

how I feel

Like an Airbender?

What does it say if I can’t decide whether that’s Tony Bennet or Maggie Smith?

My sisters used to say “Eeek a ghost!” when I went to the beach.

I must be OOTL. What’s all this about Signal?

As someone else noted, they use a platform called Fireside. I wonder how hard it would be to self-distribute a podcast with thousands of listeners.

Ethan is great too and I use his website a lot.

Wow, super cool! Thanks for sharing this.

Static page route

Ooooh! I started down the PHP path and that’s already working but now I like this idea of using JS and canvas more so I am going to go research that next. I have an nginx server running so this could work. (I wonder if this is how https://squoosh.app/ works since they claim it’s all client-side too?)

Great suggestion, I didn’t know was possible so thanks very much! 👍

I loved that app for like a year and yes, it was perfect. I don’t know what changed but about 6 months ago, when I upload images to it, they were black rectangles and so it wouldn’t shrink my images. No idea what caused that, I searched around and could not find a resolution so I moved on.

But also, it’s owned by GOOG and that’s a downside for me.

However, Squoosh utilizes Google Analytics to collect the following:

    Basic visitor data.     <-- what does this mean?
    The before and after image size value.
    If Squoosh PWA, the type of Squoosh installation.
    If Squoosh PWA, the installation time and date.

I should see if I can download the code, strip out their surveillance and then use it locally from there. Thanks for the tip!
