If you have a lot of browser windows open that you're not currently using, open this page and type in a title. Now your browser windows will be annotated. Especially useful if you use OSX spaces.
<style>
input {
margin-top: auto;
margin-bottom: auto;
background-color: transparent;
font-size: 150px;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
text-align: center;
border: none;

archagon / dom-filter.js
Last active February 4, 2016 06:36
The start of a generic DOM filtering bookmarklet, along with sample code. Useful if a website's filters aren't specific enough. SEL is the selector for the main list item and COND is a filtering function that you can customize.
var PRINT = false;
var LOG = 1;
var SEL = ".pin";
var COND = function($node) {
var ret = true;
ret = checkNum($node, ".pinPrice", ">=", 10);
if (!ret) { return false; }

archagon / robocopy-delete
Created June 16, 2013 08:03
Sometimes Windows has trouble deleting directories with very long paths down in the lower depths. Fortunately, robocopy can magically circumvent this! Simply create an empty directory and mirror it into the directory you wish to delete.
robocopy /b /mir "C:\EmptyDir" "C:\DirToEmpty"

archagon / robocopy-backup
Last active January 22, 2024 03:38
A bunch of robocopy flags to help backup an external drive.
robocopy /b /e /xa:s /xjd /sl /a-:hs /mt /v /fp /eta /log:"D:\To\Directory\transfer.log" /tee "C:\From\Directory" "D:\To\Directory"
(Note that the paths don't have a trailing backslash.)
/b -- backup mode (there's a /zb option for restart mode, but it's a whole lot slower)
/e -- copies subdirectories (including empty directories) in addition to files
/xa:s -- exclude system files
/xjd -- exclude junction points
/sl -- copy symbolic links as links
/a-:hs -- remove hidden/system attributes from files

archagon / gdc-encoder.py
Last active March 10, 2023 13:44
A quick and dirty script to convert GDC Vault videos to a pleasant mobile viewing format.
# This script continues the work of gdc-downloader.py and actually combines the video and audio
# into a single video file. The underlay.png file specifies the dimensions of the video.
# Personally, I use an all-black 1024x768 rectangle for optimal iPad viewing.
# As with gdc-downloader.py, code quality is crappy and quickly assembled to work for my
# nefarious purposes.
# Usage is as follows:
#
# gdc-encoder.py [video name] [video path] [output name] [GDC name]
