Store Locator Tool

Everyone in my circle keeps asking how I manage to find brand name kitchen appliances for sixty or seventy percent off every single week. They think I spend my entire life driving from store to store looking for deals. I finally had to admit that I am just using Scavenger AI to scout the local inventory near me. It shows me exactly what has been marked down at the specific stores in my zip code before I even put my shoes on. I found a high end stand mixer yesterday for the price of a basic toaster just because the site told me that one specific location was trying to clear out their stock. It feels like I am cheating at shopping but I am just using better data than everyone else.

I built Framéd because I was tired of fighting my own screenshots. Every tool I tried forced me into resizing, cropping, or cleaning up after the fact—especially when I needed consistent dimensions for documentation, social posts, or product work. Nothing let me simply lock a frame and keep shooting within it. So I wrote Framéd to do exactly that: set a ratio or pixel size once, and then capture with precision every single time, without breaking flow.   The core idea and the product’s real USP is that screenshots should be predictable. Framéd lets you lock aspect ratios like 16:9 or exact dimensions like 1920×1080, then drag a frame that stays true no matter where you move it....

PSA: Quick fix for Codex plugin missing on Windows/Mac (USA-only issue)\*\* Hey everyone, I know a lot of you are frustrated that the \*\*Codex plugin\*\* is missing from the plugins section on Windows (and apparently Mac too). The reason is simple: \*\*Codex is currently only available in the USA\*\*. Here's the easy workaround that works for most people: 1. Open \*\*Chrome\*\* and turn on a VPN set to \*\*USA\*\*. 2. Go to the Chrome Web Store and search for \*\*"Codex"\*\*. 3. Install the extension. 4. \*\*Fully restart\*\* the Codex desktop app (close it completely, not just the window). 5. Open Codex → go to Plugins → search for \*\*"chrome&...

Hey ya'll, I'm a new-ish GM; I've run 4 other TTRPG sessions in different systems before picking up this system. My playgroup and I decided to go with the *Hope's Last Day* starter set. I've read through the rules and scenario in their entirety to start prepping, and I plan on running through the main beats and encounters solo to make sure I'm fluent in the basic mechanics. But I realized while reading that I have some more general GM questions that I still haven't really figured out from my previous experiences and I was hoping to find some guidance here: 1. **I'm most confused on how best to balance memorizing narrative information vs referencing n...

When I first started to question his suspicious actions, he called me crazy and paranoid. He turned it around on me, saying I was the type to cheat, and I’d do so thinking he had. He was snooping on my phone a lot but slapped my hand away when I reached for his. Over the years, he continued to behave suspiciously, and even acknowledged some of what he did was suspicious, but called me controlling and toxic any time I questioned what he was doing. Even though he cheated me when I did the same things, but only during the times he seemed up to something. He went back and forth validating my reasons, saying it looked like he’s cheated, and other times mocking my reasons for thinking it and c...

I recently published my first paper in ISFPGA '26 on the subject of accelerating FPGA compilation using FPGAs themselves. Its definitely an academic work, but perhaps one day it will mature to the point where it can be practically used. Specifically, I've been working on solving the placement problem. I go about it by creating an array of processing elements (PEs) which represent legal CLB locations on the target FPGA fabric. These processing elements are then populated with representations of CLBs in the application netlist. The PEs then exchange the CLBs among themselves in order to minimize the wirelength of the placement solution. This accelerator is able to produce soluti...

# I tested Kling 3 vs Seedance 2 for AI UGC ads. Here's what actually decides if it converts. I run MaxFusion AI - hundreds of agencies push out thousands of AI ads a month on the platform, so when a new video model drops I have to test it on real ad workloads, not cherry-picked demos. Kling 3 and Seedance 2 are the two everyone's asking about right now. Here's what I found. # The wrong question "Which model is better?" is the wrong question. The right question: which model wins on the three things that actually decide if a UGC ad converts? # The 3 things that determine if an AI UGC ad lives or dies 1. **Prompt adherence** \- if the model doesn't follow th...

This page began popping up in my feed starting well over a couple months now, so I’m a long time lurker first time poster. Had to swing by my bank today, which is located alongside a strip mall with a big grocery store and many others. By the first set, which were recycling dumpsters, I saw this clear plastic office chair that I cured. It’s pretty heavy duty and still works very well. And was pretty clean! Felt cool to find something decent one of my first times out looking!

I've been into both maps and 3D printing for quite a while, so I've been making 3D city maps. It's a fun mashup of hobbies! It's a great way to see a city's various skyscrapers. Very happy with how this Baltimore map turned out. The water front makes for a great feature for it. Just to clarify, I don't just use an online tool to quick generate a map for me. I use Lidar data (which is basically laser scans of cities from an aircraft) which requires a ton of manual clean up work. It's worth it though as this gives me as much detail for the buildings as possible. Here is a quick comparison of the type of map that I make vs what most people do: [https://imgur...

HEPTAD Humanity was torn from its world by forces of unknown origin and imprisoned within an artificially constructed star system. The purpose was singular and merciless: to discover true perfection through chaos, and to become the only surviving realm of life across seven planets. We were cast into the Heptad System—seven deadly worlds, each designed to break human will and body in a different way. In a place where radiation storms burned through cells, oceans had no land, horizons warped time itself, and even light suffocated in absolute darkness, survival was nothing short of a miracle. Yet humanity did not surrender. It changed. It adapted. And within these seven hells, it formed a ...

Hope ya'll are well. I could use your input. Some may understand my situation, others will not. I'm posting fully aware of that. FYI I'm currently married but in a caretaker role. 8 years ago wife and I chose to retire in Tennessee. Great people, family, central location for travel. Within a couple weeks, wife was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer. Long story short, its been a multi year battle. The cancer is beaten but the chemo, radiation and surgeries did their damage. For 7 years now I've been home caretaking. Trips to docs, stores, etc is all. Worse than that no intimacy, sex, affection. But, she's maintaining well enough for life. I do all the housework,...

I have suspected autism with my son for about a year, as I was unknowledgeable about how autism presented. I spoke to both the school and the pediatrician and they both shrugged me off and wouldn’t help accommodate in school or getting him evaluated. I then perused my own evaluation in hopes to get him evaluated and this taken seriously. I began implementing sensory toys and noticed a drastic change in his behaviors and overall wellbeing. I found out that I’m AuDHD, and it’s still not easy getting him evaluated. But I continue to try. My children know that I use headphones for noise reduction, and have weighed blankets and sometimes need a moment in a quiet and dark space when I’m o...

I’ve been experimenting with a workflow where an LLM creates C4 architecture diagrams from a written specification, but writes them into a real architecture workspace instead of returning a throwaway image or Mermaid block. The basic idea: 1. Give the model access to an MCP server. 2. Teach it a few C4 mapping rules. 3. Ask it to turn a product/system spec into system context, container, or component diagrams. 4. Store the generated result as a structured diagram that can be edited and reused later. The part I found interesting is that the MCP alone is not enough. The model also needs instructions for judgment: \- what counts as an external actor vs an internal system \- wh...

I wanted to share my experience in case it helps anyone going through the same nightmare. My Facebook account (16+ years old) was suddenly suspended and then permanently disabled. I received a suspension notice with an appeal option, but within \~20 seconds I got another message saying the appeal was already reviewed and the account was permanently disabled. I never had a real chance to respond. At first, Meta support was completely useless — I only got copy-paste responses saying there was no appeal, no explanation, and no further recourse except “legal action.” What I did next: 1. I created a Meta account with a verified profile so I could access enhanced support. On real human s...

**Disclaimer:** A majority of this research was conducted using Claude AI and learning on SubStack/Google. I am **extremely** unknowledgable in the technical aspects of these technologies, so I apologize if I get anything wrong. All the writing in this post is by me unless specified otherwise. I originally started writing this article approximately 10 days before the Apple/Intel foundry announcement, so there's definitely been a change in the landscape regarding Intel. Thought I'd keep writing this out anyways. ## Random Preamble While we've seen extremely remarkable gains on Intel as of late, mostly due to beating expectations for Q1 2026, a decent (but definitely not a...

I might need to get rid of an experience to free up some space. I'm gonna learn ROS2 and SLAM this summer! Once again, any advice would be appreciated.
