    Also you might need finasteride/dutasteride medication to stop further losses. See a dermatologist or ask your family dr, you’re almost certainly going to need that and if you realy want to, monoxodil foam to try and help regrowth. These will need to be taken likely daily for as long as you want to keep your hair, your genetics is trying to get rid of it so you havr to actively mitigate that on an ongoing basis

    There’s no no-bullshit magic potions that fix everytging and dont cause any pain in the ass unfortunately


  • I like Shortcuts as a way of implementing a more declarative understanding to create toy programs. These satisfy a modular and immediate need and you can chain them together to build bigger programs too

    Scriptable is a javascript version of Shortcuts which I love for this purpose also

    Actually just did this (used ChatGPT haha blush) to create a script to take a songlist and output it reformatted so it says what time each song plays and now i just need to find a good source for album tracklists and I’ll have a great toy solution for that problem

    I dont want to spend 3 days or even 3 hours on tinkering to get that right, its enough for me that if it doesnt do what I envision I know how to reprompt or reframe or do some trial and error tests that help nudge the approach to where it produces what I need from it and i can move on to the next problem or iterating on this to refine and improve the solution. Maybe even my overall process, who knows

    I made a lot of these things when I was starting learning coding like a cash register app to make change which I’m actually super proud of but I kinda prefer to work a bit higher-level and limit the extent to which I have to reinvent the wheel. I have other innovations I’d like to pursue





  • Hey, while we have you, can I ask what is the best way to join or merge all the downloaded videos still using the command line. Like do I cd to the download directory and have it do something, something somethint ffmpeg?

    Also, is downloading the mp4 significantly different in sound quality than bestaudio (which tends to output a webm rather than mp4)?


  • No no, thats not what I meant. I mean just that I usually keep my eyes peeled for apps that do the same or a similar function as a redundancy backup plan type thing. Like I collect apps that do the same thing but maybe have slightly different or novel implementations cuz I dont want to be caught with my pants down when they wise up to whatever way I was getting the needful done

    Lots of respect for what you’re doing and it must be very difficult to try and ensure that level of compat. Hope you’re kind to yourself about it all, thats alot, yo.
