Links of the day
I collect cool, interesting links spread all over the web and share them here in daily posts. Hope you enjoy! More of them in the archive.
AI controls are coming to Firefox. Starting with Firefox 148, scheduled for February 24th, it will be possible to disable all or just some of the browser's AI features. Let's ignore Mozilla's insistence on this for a moment; at first glance, the implementation seems quite good.
Notepad++ has been compromised by state-sponsored hackers. For those in a hurry, the recommendation is to download version 8.9.1 and run the installer to update the app manually.
Calibre 9. The main new features are a new “bookshelf” view, which displays the spines of the books.
Loops is now the App Store. Loops is a FOSS alternative to TikTok, from the same creator of Pixelfed.
OpenTTD. A FOSS alternative to the old Transport Tycoon, maintained and modernized, but with the same vibe as in 1994. The new version, 15, was released last month.
AntiRender. Upload one of those renders of condos projects, city halls etc., and this site will search for an image from any Tuesday in November to contrast reality with what was promised.
delphitools. A collection of small online tools, or “simple handmade conveniences.” I love its aesthetics.
