  1. OpenAI ChatGPT and Whisper to generate recipe instructions from YouTube video
    May 20, 2023 · original
    As everybody else, I wanted to see what ChatGPT could do. I love finding recipes on YouTube, but sometimes, a good set of instruction is better than the whole story of the recipe. Especially when I want to do the same recipe again, I don’t want to watch again why, how, etc … did this recipe came to be. So, let’s use ChatGPT and Whisper to take care of the process for me. The video The generated text Recipe for Extra Crispy Oven-Fried Chicken Wings: Ingredients: – 2.5 pounds of chicken wings – Kosher salt – Baking powder – Cornstarch (optional) Instructions: 1. Air chill the chicken wings below 40 degrees for less retained moisture and drier skin. 2. Mix kosher salt, baking powder, and cornstarch in a ratio of one teaspoon for every pound of chicken. Add cornstarch optionally for crispiness. 3. Coat chicken wings in the mixture, refrigerate uncovered overnight for best results. 4. Preheat
  2. Monitor your services for free
    Oct 1, 2022 · original
    One of the main thing in DevOps is to monitor your services and be notified if they’re down. Through the years, I’ve been trying multiple different services for that purpose as I run multiple application like my blog, my dns server, etc … Right now, I’ve decided to go for a self-hosted one, I found a great software: Uptime Kuma Uptime Kuma Couple of feature of the software that I enjoy: Easy to setup monitoring for any HTTP service Also for any TCP service and DNS You can provide a status page to your users with it It’s free and still developed Can be run directly with docker My status page So without further ado, I’m also adding my status page for you to see the state of all my services: https://up.aaflalo.me/status/services The post Monitor your services for free appeared first on Antoine Aflalo .
  3. Gestdown: Addic7ed Proxy
    May 17, 2022 · original
    Gestdown is a small project in C# and VueJS 3 made to provide an API and search capabilities to Addic7ed. The idea This project started from a desire to have proper subtitles for my media center. My partner and I love to be able to rely on them occasionally when watching shows. You know when that actor is a little bit hard to understand or just you want to be able to munch while watching The problem Addic7ed is one of the best source for high quality subtitles but it doesn’t provide any kind of API. This make it complex to integrate with different media center/subtitle providers (like Emby, Plex or Bazarr). Each of those systems need to implement their own way to query, parse and return subtitles matching the different downloaded episodes. Moreover, with all those applications querying often the poor PHP (based on an old wiki engine) website, it is down quite a lot, overloaded by all tho
  4. NextDNS: DoT and DoH provider for easy ADBlocking
    Oct 23, 2021 · original
    Introduction From my previous article like Tutorial to setup your own DNS-over-HTTPS (DoH) server or Tutorial to setup DNS-over-TLS (DoT) , you gather how to setup your self a full DoT or DoH solution. This is not always easy, neither always worth the time to do. Through the time, I realized I couldn’t keep up with the different component that needed to be updated and wanted a full solution that would handle everything for me. From ADBlocking to DoT and DoH. That how I found NextDNS . What is NextDNS So NextDNS , is a free, secure, easy, fast solution providing you with a DNS endpoint that you can configure to your needs. Going from choosing what ADBlock list to use, to what to whitelist while passing throught seeing the log for each device. Pricing NextDNS is free for up to 300k monthly request, then 30$ per year for unlimited request. In my case, I opt to pay for the service, it’s such
  5. CrowdSec and WordPress: A Scenario to block attacks
    Sep 6, 2021 · original
    CrowdSec I decided to replace my good old fail2ban by CrowdSec . A nice crowd-sourced alternative where the ban don’t just come from your machine, but from the rest of the user of the application. It has so many advantages when you come from fail2ban, like a direct integration with CloudFlare or even Nginx to block any detected attacks. Problem I had a nice detection of spam of the 2 most used vectors on a wordpress: wp-login.php and xmlrpc.php . The jail was pretty simple, detect spam on those page, and block. But in CrowdSec, we don’t use jail, we use scenario. I had to learn and make a new scenario to teach the program to detect the possible intrusion. Solution Use the Scenario & Collection I’ve contributed to the official HUB of CrowdSec to add the missing scenario about XMLRPC. So if you want to have the scenario install through the hub, the safest and easiest way to keep it up-to-d
  6. Windows Sandboxing and WinGet
    Apr 3, 2021 · original
    While I was working on SoundSwitch , I came onto the WinGet project by Microsoft. Basically, a package manager for Windows made by Microsoft heavily inspired by the defunct AppGet. Every time I release a new version of SoundSwitch, I should also to a PR at their main repository winget-pkgs. Dark Mode winget-pkgs (this link opens in a new window) by microsoft (this link opens in a new window) The Microsoft community Windows Package Manager manifest repository 93 Subscribers 5855 Watchers 2262 Forks Check out this repository on GitHub.com (this link opens in a new window) One part of the validation process is to test the created manifest, to be sure it installs the application correctly. This quite annoying to have to manually run the command and install my own app on my computer after I released it. Thanks to Windows Sandboxing, I don’t need to install the app on my machine. But again, th
  7. .NET Core detection in Inno Setup
    Jun 13, 2020 · original
    Introduction Lately, I’ve updated my .NET application, SoundSwitch, to .NET Core. In the installer, I had a full detection of the .NET Framework installed on the user’s machine. The installer is using this to suggest installing or not the required version of the .NET Framework. Since I moved to .NET Core, I needed to update this detection, and nobody seems to have published a complete way on how to do it. Here you’ll find the code and how to use it in your own app. Code Here is the Pascal code to detect if the user has the wanted version of the framework or a newer version. [Code] function hasDotNetCore(version: string) : boolean; var runtimes: TArrayOfString; I: Integer; versionCompare: Integer; registryKey: string; begin registryKey := 'SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\dotnet\Setup\InstalledVersions\x64\sharedfx\Microsoft.NETCore.App'; if(not IsWin64) then registryKey := 'SOFTWARE\dotnet\Setup\Ins

  9. Snapd taking too long to stop
    May 8, 2020 · original
    What is snapcraft/snap ? If you updated to Ubuntu 20.4, you have now Snap coming with it. Snap is a new way to install and manage the application on your system. Instead of having access to your whole system, the app is launched into a “jail”. The jail is configurable by the developer to have access to your machine. It’s great for security, and the packaging is easier for the developer. The problem It takes forever to stop when shutdown your system, and most of the time it seems systemd kill the service. I haven’t been able to find why. Solution Create an override file for the system service to reduce the timeout, instead of 1m30s, reduce it to 10s. Use systemd to edit the override file. sudo systemctl edit snapd.service Set the timeout in the file. [Service] TimeoutSec=10 Just restart the service and you’re good to go. sudo systemctl restart snapd.service The post Snapd taking too long
