Show HN: Whatthemovie.com, a movie-still guessing gamehttps://whatthemovie.com

Hey HN! Long time reader here. I recently spent over five months to modernize an old website I have been working on since 2008: https://whatthemovie.com . This is a simple game where people uploads screenshots from movies, and other players have to guess the title of the movie from where the image was taken. This is really images from movie scenes, not promotional stuff or whatever. We have 70k users (but most are from the 2008-2010 area so inactive), and more than 600k images uploaded by our users for 18 years. Around 30k movies in the database too. Thanks to LLMs I was about to modernize th…

I've made myself a timer + website blocker chrome extension to help me focus. Yes, there are dozens of extensions like this already, yet somehow none of them did quite what I wanted. Which is: you set a timer, and the extension blocks your chosen websites, while you're trying to finally get some work done. Not much more to it. To list some features of any note: - it's kinda neat - it doesn't redirect your tabs, so they're intact when your session ends - the timer can count down from a set time or up until you stop it - entirely local, no external requests whatsoever - mostly vibe-coded (but I…

The changes are part of v0.100.0. In testing, a 2 MB Markdown document opened in about a second. I’d be interested to see how it performs with other people’s documents and hardware. Opening speed was one part of the work. I also worked on editing long documents and copying and cutting large selections. Much of the overhead came from repeatedly processing the entire document or doing unnecessary work…

Hi HN, I built dsnitch because I wanted a zero-config, bandwhich-style live TUI to see what my homelab Docker containers are connecting to—without running sidecar proxies, modifying container configs, or relying on reverse DNS (fails on anycast CDN IPs). Just run the binary and it automatically discovers running containers. Under the hood, it's written in Rust and attaches eBPF probes to the unified cgroup v2 hierarchy and TCP state tracepoints. To map IPs back to domain names accurately, it passively snoops raw UDP/53 DNS responses per cgroup and decodes them in userspace using Hickory DNS…

Consumers are increasingly encountering AI-generated images on food menus such as leathery meat and bread resembling reptile skin During a recent lunch break, Jill Sennett saw something so unappetizing she had to share it with her 26,000 X followers : Artificial intelligence-generated menu images from a Jamaican barbecue pop-up restaurant in which the meats looked like leather belts crawling with tiny beetles. The images were reshared by more than 500 people who similarly expressed their disgust. Eating is “such an essential human experience”, said Sennett, a 37-year-old nurse in Denver.…
