• There is a misconception that if something's on the internet it'll last for

  Maybe they just mean SingleFile (https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/singlefile/mpiodijhokgodhhofbcjdecpffjipkle) which is quite handy for archiving – nothing automated based on your history though like the above commenter was describing. - Source: Hacker News / 6 months ago

• anyone figure out how to rip videos from beachbody

  For getting text and images in a high quality and convenient HTML format, use SingleFile (Firefox/Chrome). Source: about 1 year ago

• What's a really niche tool you use that you can't live without?

  Copy Selected Links - I use this in combination with a text editor like Smultron on Mac. Cmd + f "https" and replace with "yt-dlp " and paste the full list into terminal usually does the trick when grabbing tons of links at once, which most frequently for me would be YouTube and Soundcloud links. Image Downloader - Easy and convenient, does its job 95% of the time. I should probably look into gallery-dl, but I... Source: about 1 year ago

• I need a tool for downloading an entire youtube webpage for preservation (not just the embedded video )

  In my experience SingleFile works best and has a lot of options. Source: over 1 year ago

• Browser Tab Hoarding: How do you organize/archive your research? Trying to reach Tab Zero.

  If you are in chrome (firefox too, I think) you can bookmark all your open tabs. Then at least some of it is stored. The problem starts when you want to go back to a page where you felt you had something important to find and the page is down.

• Notepad Tab

  For me it's the risk of littering in a project repo. So I use Zim wiki instead: https://zim-wiki.org/. - Source: Hacker News / 17 days ago

• Show HN: A Python-based static site generator using Jinja templates

  I'll slightly modify your argument; because Pure HTML does suck: Why don't people make static sites with a simple "Markdown-or-Similar to HTML" converter, CSS, and vanilla JS...etc? (This is what I do, btw -- http://zim-wiki.org + a template). - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

• Show HN: A directory of open source alternatives to proprietary software

  You should add Zim [1] to the "Personal Knowledge Management" section :) [1] https://zim-wiki.org. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

• Sent – simple plaintext presentation tool

  Https://meyerweb.com/eric/tools/s5/ And I just tweaked the CSS and added a bit of logic to included the possibility of one image per slide; as well as editing slides not with raw HTML but with https://zim-wiki.org (because that's what I'm really used to, I'm sure any Markdown thing would work just as well). - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

• The rise and fall of the standard user interface

  Absolutely; recently I realize I wish I'd never learned vim. I use too many other programs that are at least CUA-ish ( http://zim-wiki.org is the most important app I use ) and now I kind of want out.
