Damn these AI models...

I bought a Baseus EnerGeek Laptop Powerbank, 145 W, 20800 mAh able to charge laptops and phone at same time. Never have been this relaxed working on something remote. It charges the phone so fast!

It was just around 50,-. Can recommend this device to anyone. Bang for the buck.

Before I had a cheap powerbank having almost the same Mah (20.000) but it was really not comparable, it took ages to charge the phone and laptop did not work on it.

The difference between this powerbank that you can use for everything and the default ones was like 20 euros.

I advise to invest good when buying one. While the good one is like the size of the cheaper one (different form mostly). It' still quite the device with a half kg weight. So you can use it also in a bar fight.

The charger to charge the powerbank itself is not included but your laptop charger will suffice. I did buy the VOOMY USB C Adapter 65W, Oplader USB C with GaN Technologie that supplies three ports (two usb-c and one default usb). From that device i was amazed how small it was being a full laptop charger. That one was around 27,-.

For charging your device on such powers, special cables are required. The powerbank got you regarding usb-cable, it comes with one included. The VOOMY does not include any cables.

But with buying these two products i just mentioned will suffice you to work remotely for several hours very comfortably.

devRant reviews, something new.

Is this heaven?

I raised AI integration to a new level: https://devrant.molodetz.nl/Screenc...

It knows what i have on screen using OCR, it knows what windows I have open using X11 API, it knows my current environment information so it knows that it can execute and stuff.

Also, check the picture, what a genius. But I hate their babysitting so much, let the AI's just do what we ask. If we want to share an API key, we share an API key and use it in a script! It's MY responsibility. I'm an adult y'know.

I don't know about your country but this feature is novel among Nigeria's financial institutions. What usually happens in a typical bank app is same as above: fields are provided for entering account details. There is no way to know the outcome of the transfer until it's made. If it fails in transit (often, you're debited but the recipient gets nothing), you might get a reversal if you're lucky, after an indefinite period of time. Otherwise, you have to take it up with your bank or the recipient's bank. Or worse, with the central bank, when the first two are not being helpful enough

Enter this new generation fintech (Opay). They offer an addition that impresses all customers: after selecting the bank, a popup appears that notifies you on the stability of the receiver's network. Someone sent me this screenshot seeking my permission or provision of another bank. I didn't think much of it and asked them to proceed. To my surprise, transaction failed and their money instantly reversed

Those traditional banks clearly have no api for health checks, otherwise they'd all adopt it within their own apps. So, how is this possible? My only guess is that Opay maintains their own health checks system that is updated maybe by periodically pinging those banks with nominal fees like N1 and verifying whether money was received

It's obviously primitive but I doubt traditional bank apis return a failure response (since none currently tells you when transaction failed). So you'd have to rely on workarounds emulating manual and automated testing

To those in the fintech sector or with a faint idea of what's going on, can you explain?

Ah yes. ubiquitous-octo-engine. Short and memorable.

It’s so sad that this “Auth for Google authenticator” app whose logo definitely doesn’t try to impersonate google with a similar color scheme, with in-app purchases, is allowed to exist, while Lensflare’s JoyRant isn’t.

the scariest part about the worldwide musical degeneracy propaganda campaign is that people are doing it of their own accord. there is no hand pulling the strings behind the scenes.
also, since when exposed labea majora become synonymous to music? this shit is repulsive.

You know it's a human if he doesn't knows to answer 🤣

Lensflare, look at how those lines in between menu elements don’t protrude all the way to the left edge, instead stopping before icons, so there is no line in between icons. Telegram uses the same UI pattern for “all chats” screen, and it looks good. What about using it in JoyRant in notifications screen?

Somebody suggested eating substitute bath salts...

Okay devs, this one caught me off guard.

I was testing out Google's NotebookLM, expecting it to be another AI summarizer. Cool, but whatever.

Instead, I found this "Studio panel" with something called Video Overview — and in less than 3 minutes, it literally turned a block of copied text and a YouTube transcript into a fully narrated explainer video with slide transitions, quotes, and everything.

No Adobe Premiere. No voiceover. Not even a script.

Check out the full video on my Youtube Channel

How it works:

You can paste copied text, link a YouTube video, or add docs

Then you hit “Generate Video Overview”

It gives you a narrated breakdown of the content

Bonus: you can customize tone, style, and export it right away

I tested it with AI tools and quantum networking stuff, and the result was clean enough to use in an actual client pitch or course video.

Maybe not perfect yet, but honestly? As someone who’s spent hours editing screencasts — I’m not complaining.

Anyone else tried this?

We need to come up with a coding version of this. Where is a place that coders fight all the time? Some place notorious for this? We fight here, but I wouldn't compare devrant to a waffle house.

Dear UK. WTF?

It's the future. I've tried it.

So, it took more than a hour to generate the prompt of this application. I also designed how it would look upfront using gpt5. Ultimately i did let claude generate it all.

It's an application that will give an idea about how much you actually get for a million tokens. To give better insight how much AI costs for a normal user that only uses it for questioning and not automation.

The application to test that, became very beatifull with exactly as i have asked.
