I think I scored today another deal..

Any idea about the price of these pieces?

A while ago I shared Lumaform Orb, a browser tool for breeding AI-assistant orbs instead of tuning sliders. Some of you asked to use the orbs in your own projects, so I split out the runtime and opened the source. I am coming from design background but had some feedback for performance.

npm package: https://www.npmjs.com/package/@lumaform/orb

MIT License, contributions are welcome.

Working on an interactive conversational orb for my personal site. Rather than locking down a deterministic keyframe loop, I built an authoring playground in Three.js to explore the latent landscape visually.

How it works:

• Coordinate Grid: Visual 2D navigation across morph targets/latent states to spot harmonic sweet spots instead of guessing vector weights.
• LFO Matrix: Decoupled periodic oscillators continuously modulate weights in the render loop (subtle pitch/yaw wander, micro-tension, breathing drift) to keep it from feeling stiff when idle.
• Client-Side WebGL: Runs smoothly at 60 FPS in-browser with zero server streaming overhead.

Wanted a hybrid approach between traditional deliberate rule-setting and generative studio exploration.

I love Obsidian and VS Code, but both have evolved into heavy environments. When I just want to quickly draft lean prompts, inspect a raw file, or write a few clean paragraphs without spinning up an entire vault or project workspace, the friction gets annoying.

The core premises:

• One file, one window: Opens standalone .md files directly from disk without proprietary databases, sidebars, or library clutter.
• Inline ghosted preview: Renders formatting cleanly in place while keeping Markdown markers faintly visible, so you never lose your cursor orientation in the raw source syntax.
• Calm typography: Restrained line measure for reading comfort, instant Mono / Serif / Sans toggles, and warm paper themes (Divan, Sedef, Mermer).
• Deep macOS integration: Native support for Apple Writing Tools, typewriter scrolling, callout blocks, and instant HTML/PDF export.

No vaults, no background sync spinners, no plugin baggage—just a quiet, physical sheet of paper for your Mac.

You can download Divan from divan.lumaform.xyz

I had some extra in vacuum packaged.

Astropool.app break a spiral rack of zodiac balls into six pockets, where each sign lands becomes your daily horoscope.

Everything was procedural. Felt, starfield, ball faces, zodiac glyphs, all drawn on canvas at runtime and fed in as textures. No image files at all.

Physics is Rapier2D, three.js just renders the sim output, so the render layer stayed dumb and easy to iterate on. A camera-framing pass keeps the break centered, pockets glow softly as balls approach, and the aiming guide feels more like a real cue sight than a debug line.

For a scene this small (one table, twelve balls), never needed anything heavier, three.js was good enough.. What are your thoughts?

I recently bought 25 of these vacuum packaged pens. It writes great and it feels like a hybrid approach to today's fineliners versus technical pen.

It is quite interesting repo, not mine.

I recently bought a hy320 ntv and it came with WhaleOS. Do you think that this version also includes malware? I tried to use two keyboards and they are not working fine. It has kika keyboard installed and it drive me crazy... is there any possiblity to install another os on this one or not bother?

Thank you all

I was experimenting with some niche creative tools and made three micro apps. Fringe is the last one - still a bit sloppy but it is good enough to share with you all.

Fringe.ink is a browser-based parametric generative design lab. Explore moiré, flow fields, halftone, waves, attractors, and more — everything runs locally in your browser; nothing is uploaded.

Give a try, free and just collecting basic GA data - that is it.

Feedback welcome,

• Built on Three.js and WebGL.
• Heavy reliance on custom fragment shaders to manipulate the luma, brightness filters, and edge detection in real-time.
• Features a massive configurator UI to tweak shapes (circles, hexagons, stars), distortion FX, and color modes on the fly.
• Includes built-in client-side recording so you can export the results directly.

I’m trying to polish up the performance and overall UX. Would love to know what you think of the rendering styles or any optimization tips you have for handling heavy texture sampling in the shaders!

It’s a browser-based, destructive print-effects photo editor. It lets you layer halftone, risograph, zine-punk grain, and duotone palettes over any image with live previews.

The Tech Stack & Challenges:

• 100% Client-Side: All image processing and pixel manipulation happens locally in the browser to keep it snappy and private.
• SVG Generation: Getting the vector export to map cleanly to sharp mathematical paths rather than just bloated code took some fine-tuning, but it works smoothly now.
• Deployment: I'm a UX designer by trade, so for this project, I forced myself out of my comfort zone to handle the dev ops side—leveraging open-source models for initial asset cycles and deploying the solution pipeline.

The tool is completely free with no sign-ups or tracking, but won't say no to a buy me coffee.

Would love to hear your feedback and do you have any specific photo filter ideas that you want to have included in this micro extension which makes images a bit "different"

Have a good day,

I got this amazon prime day. I have enough but I do feel some days blue. 📘
