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.

FreeBSD wants to know which laptops it works on. As part of an initiative to expand support for consumer hardware in FreeBSD, the foundation behind the project is asking the community to run an analysis tool and share the results with it.

Google: New spam policy for “back button hijacking”. Starting in June, Google will begin penalizing websites that “hijack” the browser’s “back” button. It’s a dirty trick, often used by low-quality sites to keep visitors stuck on the page they’re viewing.

Zotero 9. The highlight of this update is a feature where the app reads documents aloud. It works with *.pdf, *.epub and web pages.

Google App for Windows. The app, a shortcut for searching Google and interacting with Gemini, has been released worldwide for English speakers.

Aeronaut. A rare (unprecedented?) Bluesky app that isn’t just the website packaged into an executable. Free to view content, USD 1,99/month or USD 14,99/year to post, use more than one account, and receive notifications.

curl-doom. The classic Doom (yes, again) running on an HTTP server and streamed to the terminal via cURL.
