Kind of, but not really, the ublock origin app doesn't work on Orion. I tried both Kagi + uBlock versus Brave and their built-in ad-block and Brave had a much better performance.

True, none of the extensions I tried actually worked as intended.

Fwiw Orion uses the actual extensions, not the uBO Lite app (for Safari) that I think you're referring to.

Putin can and has bought soldiers (Wagner Group and North Koreans).


And apparently Indians. Unfortunately the worldwide supply of poor and desperate young men is virtually infinite so Russia will be able to recruit more mercenaries as long as they have cash from fossil fuel exports.

For those out of the loop, can you please explain your comment?


Netflix uses FFMPEG, will have to update


Have to? They don't have a kill switch in there, probably.


Yup, abandoned 5 years ago judging by the Github page.


Cool tool! Are you guys releasing Hyprnote for Windows this month?


probably end of this month or early next month. not 100% sure.


I tried it with a Russian YT video and it did not work:

Starting process... Processing URL: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MtkgT6R2HtA Error: Failed to get transcript: Could not retrieve a transcript for the video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MtkgT6R2HtA! This is most likely caused by:

No transcripts were found for any of the requested language codes: ['en']

For this video (MtkgT6R2HtA) transcripts are available in the following languages:

(MANUALLY CREATED) None

(GENERATED) - ru ("Russian (auto-generated)")[TRANSLATABLE]

(TRANSLATION LANGUAGES) - en ("English")

If you are sure that the described cause is not responsible for this error and that a transcript should be retrievable, please create an issue at https://github.com/jdepoix/youtube-transcript-api/issues. Please add which version of youtube_transcript_api you are using and provide the information needed to replicate the error. Also make sure that there are no open issues which already describe your problem! --- End of summary ---


Hey just to follow up youtube videos like the above will now work. I tested with that video and few others. Let me know if you have any other issues and thanks for the great feedback on the project!


That's great feedback, I'm working on a fix now


This may be of interest to you:

The Stanford Research into the Impact of Tobacco Advertising (SRITA; https://tobacco.stanford.edu/) collection currently contains 62,553 tobacco advertisements.


Thanks, I'll check it out!


"A team of Spanish scientists made a striking announcement 15 years ago: they were seeking thousands of volunteers among the employees of Banco Santander in Madrid: researchers wanted to study them in depth for decades, in order to understand the onset of cardiovascular disease in healthy people."

Is there a project like this one can join in the US? I've always wanted to contribute to a biomedical study.


"Cohort study" is the broader term for this type of work. For heart disease, the Framingham Heart Study (in Framingham MA) is a foundational one in the US.

It's not really something you can go looking to volunteer for though, someone has to be putting together a cohort study (which is a big expensive long term project) on a group that you happen to be part of, and you can agree to participate in it.

You could look for specific studies on clinialtrials.gov. Its a database of trials in the US and also around the world. In the US I'm not sure of the status of such studies about budget cuts to NIH.

I myself was on 1 year study post organ transplant for impact of whole grain plant based diet. They educate you initially on the diet and then monitor your weight and blood tests over the year.


I use this one - https://heh.eurekaplatform.org/pages/landing. I'm filling a large form every 6 months for them. Seems they focus on long term studies.


One just got approved in January 2025, called suzetrigine or Journavx.

Now this is a practical use of AI, kudos!


Thank you!
