Hi HN, I'm Peter Bishop and I've been working in graphics and web tech for over 25yrs. I've recently launched Death Plan Switch to solve a major problem in my succession plan.

Show HN: Rouler – Steer Windows traffic per app or IP across multiple interfaceshttps://rouler.io

Hi HN, Rouler is "rules for your routes". It allows you to steer network traffic across multiple network interfaces on Windows. For example: - Run Tailscale, Mullvad and OpenVPN official clients simultaneously. - Use Rouler to send Slack via the OpenVPN connection, Chrome + an IP range via Tailscale and a torrent client via Mullvad. Rouler is VPN agnostic, so you can "split-tunnel" with anything that sets up a windows network interface. I'm an independent developer from Australia and have been working on Rouler for a bit over a year. It's been a challenging project to say the least, but I'm r…

Kinda crazy how many people submit their sensitive information to frontier models. Tax documents, health data, financial transactions etc. Built this as a proof of concept. Venice AI is on a similar wavelength where they limit identity connected to prompts, but not information in the prompts. Sometimes it's tough to actually filter all sensitive information and keep the same quality in responses. I can share the github if anyone is interested.
