As a long time simmer, I'm buying this tonight after work, especially now that my Pixel 4a 5G is sitting on my desk, propping up the 9 Pro XL that replaced it last week. Also, FS2024. Wow.
Tried it on my lunch hour (WFH FTW!) and wow that is disorienting. Going to take some getting used to after 30+ years without it!
Awesome! Hope you enjoy it -
I recommend turning the sensitivity down to start with, also bind “toggle” in OpenTrack to turn it off when you don’t need it.
I built it for myself after I began using Obsidian for day to day note making. A simple idea: get reminders for tasks you create in Obsidian. People seem to like it.
I made SmoothTrack, a no-equipment head tracking app for iOS and Android which lets you control the game camera in sim games (like MSFS 2024 for example) with your head - basically like TrackIR, just without any equipment and for $15 instead of $150. I originally made the app just for myself to save myself the money of buying a TrackIR system, but then /r/flightsim begged me to release it as a full app. Last month, I…
How does this work without a virtual headset (don't you just end up looking off-screen)? Are you moving your head far less than the camera moves on the screen?
> moving your head far less than the camera moves on the screen
Precisely this. You keep your eyes on the screen and just nudge your head in the direction you want. Your brain “gets” it real quickly and it feels very intuitive.
https://www.unlistedjobs.com/ Scraper of job listings directly from company websites. I found my last day job by using a scraper that visits company websites in search of job listings. Now I've turned it into an app for others to use and access jobs that are posted on company websites (rather than paid employer ads on Indeed or wherever). This gives the job searcher an advantage to find jobs not listed on job search…
can I make feature requests?
I would love a map of job postings to see where it might make sense to move to in the future. If there's 10 jobs within 50 miles... that might be a good place to buy a house.
Additionally, if I filter by 'north america' I still get jobs from canada and india because they're remote only. I would LOVE to be able to filter out those positions. Also I would love to be able to AND 'remote' and 'north america'. I would like to work remotely, but only for US companies
Yes, it is a leads driven business. I have focused on improving SEO in three of their core markets. Any new customer that signs up as a result of my marketing efforts, as long as their base margin is met, I get paid for the lifetime of that account.
I love everything about what you're doing here. There's a lot of opportunity in a lot of different niches and it's all just being slept on. Did you already have a relationship with this company somehow or did you have to go and sell them?
I was introduced to them via a friend. I know the market well enough to recognize that there was potential to find clients and take a "scrape" off the new business. I know the qualms customers have with their existing service providers so whenever there are any concerns I curate very specific messages during the sales process to reel them in. Once they are signed up, getting it right 100% of the time is impossible, so I also step in on the "support" side and help solve issues, provide proposed solutions to challenges, etc. I do agree with you. Many other types of "sticky" and "unsexy" businesses out-there that are very easy to rank highly in SEO locally in dense urban environments.
I still make about ~$1000/month with my 5/3/1 app : https://fivethreeone.app/ Managed to raise some money from friends to work full-time on a successor that allows you to write your own workout programs with formulas.
This app looks great! I'll definitely try it out when I move onto 5/3/1.
My SaaS Cronitor.io started here in 2014 as a side project. Left my job at Zillow 4 years ago and we are still going strong. Here’s my reply from 2017: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=15150205
I made an AI chatbot for OnlyFans models. Their fans can speak to "them" via a third party messaging app. It's currently pulling ~15k USD MRR. I built my own GPU infra for inference and I run Llama 3 with a fewshot prompting to get the model to respond like a given OF model, typically using their actual DMs with fans. I don't have a website for obvious reasons, but if you're in the biz you've no doubt heard about my…
I am always in awe of people that simply solve a problem (instead of having to get all esoteric about it) but I cannot understand what problem chat solves when the subject is more interesting to look at than speak to. :) [edit] 20 jpegs into a 150MB LoRA
For chat, I'd say 70% of the messages are non-sexual in nature. People just want to have someone to talk to during their work day. Not all, but quite a few models have been open about how their chat during the day is AI generated.
Festival-goers can just pay for their food direct as well? Sorry, I don't understand your offering at all and the questions just sort of keep coming! I see you combine payments, but I'm struggling to see the real-terms benefit over a tap-payment (card, watch or phone)? For a food stand, it would seem, not taking the money directly is a relatively large potential liability. Is the point to enforce a contract between v…
Happy to answer! > Festival-goers can just pay for their food direct as well? In a word? Data. Festivals normally charge vendors a percentage of sales to be at the festival and they need a way to track sales. "Trust me bro" doesn't quite work since restaurants/vendors will lie or shave their sales numbers so they pay out less. One festival told me about a time they had a vendor steal another vendor's tickets they had…
Thanks for the explanation. I had a lot of similar questions.
