I just wrote my own.
It’s a single html file with links to all my services, served at the root of my nginx server.

This is like v12, I’ve edited it over the years as what I host has changed. Adding the embedded searxng bar, as well as links to uptime kuma and openspeedtest.
Stuff only I need to access is behind the "Admin Menu" button:

And it only works via lan/vpn.

I’d be happy to let you copy it, provided you know how to edit it for your needs.

PC Gaming@lemmy.ca•Lutris now being built with Claude AI, developer decides to hide it after backlashEnglish
111·2 days agoAt this point I guess we’re just assuming it’s “buggy” due to the IA, right?
No. But it might be. We don’t know because the guy who’s supposed to double check, isn’t. And admits to it like its some kind of brag.
There also the whole debate around licensing. Generative images have been called “art laundering”, and the same can be argued for code.
It’s a potential way to break FOSS licenses. Just copy the code and have an AI re-implement what it does, and boom you get to ignore license obligations.

PC Gaming@lemmy.ca•Deadlock - Gameplay Update - 03-06-2026English
1·6 days agoFlawless Advance can now be interrupted. Shining Wonder’s bounce range was nerfed. Kinetic Pulse was made less annoying. Smoke Bomb T3 no longer provides invincibility, which allowed Haze to play like she had three counterspells. Shiv’s Killing Blow no longer auto-targets and must be aimed. Vindicta’s flight duration was reduced. Wardens ult isn’t as invincible anymore (it now only has resists during channel). Silvers ult now has an actual cooldown.
Victor did get buffed. In exchange his survivability was nerfed and he is now easier to kill. He has more burst, but less of the sustain that makes him so annoying. It’s not enough yet, but I approve of the direction.
Calico was changed so as to be less annoying to play. She’s likely to be nerfed again as the stats come in, but Valve won’t know by how much before the mechanical changes made to her kit see real play.
All in all, multiple things that were unfun, have been addressed. There will always be stuff that is annoying. But IMO, there are now less of them.

Technology@lemmy.world•Xpanceo is making smart contact lenses a reality as soon as 2027English
2·8 days agoDid you read the article?
The contact lens is just the display, it still requires inductive power and external display source to really do anything. Plenty to “tear apart” and fit into existing equipment.
The lens itself becoming a complete device in its entirety is something I think we are decades, potentially centuries from tech which is that minituarized. Smart rings exist, but they’re still orders of magnitude simpler devices.
If you’re gonna be wearing a computer and battery on your temple anyway, why is sticking the display in your eyeball, the simplest solution here?

4·8 days agoWhat sort of extreme environment would exclude other ways of having a hud?
In you eye is an extreme way to do it, considering divers, pilots, drivers, astronauts etc. already wear or are surrounded by equipment this would be more easily integrated into.
I’d like you to realize that “the USA who is the least likely country to implement these laws” is literally the opposite of current reality.
They are making some of the greatest efforts to make legally mandated user and age tracking a thing, as well as legally mandated user identity based content-gating.
…
So this is not a concern to you?
The fact that there are people in leadership positions that want this, and have reasons why they want this, is below note. And not worth opposing?
This will lead to infrastructure, that should not exist, existing.
That it can be avoided is not a solution. It should not be built in the first place.
Is your argument really “this won’t affect linux, so it doesn’t matter” ? At the very least, FOSS development by anyone in California will be a problem, as the law quite literally names “persons” as potentially liable.
The reality remains, the US is the most thirsty for this kind of thing. Not the least.
And they are already working on an even more overreaching version that will close loopholes in the current legalese.
Windows, and any other OS will be illegal in California unless it implements this.
Apple, for one, is headquartered in California.
So, the OS wont work until the user verifies their age somehow.
Moreover, even if an OS somehow could know the users age - that doesn’t automatically mean all other software that exists automatically reads it and responds to it as necessary. Does the law compel anyone making software to recognise this?
Did you not read my comment? Anyone writing software for an OS that implements this, can be sued (in California) if their application ignores the API signals from the OS and allows access to age-restricted content.
Or is your argument really “this won’t affect linux, so it doesn’t matter” ? At the very least, FOSS development by anyone in California will be a problem, as the law quite literally names “persons” as potentially liable.

You may want to look into what the legal requirements actually are, and how it changes who is liable. It is outright draconian.
Essentially, it requires the OS to find out the age of the user, and then inform ALL software that is run by API. Any software that theoretically could use the data, and still allows a child to see something they should not have, will be liable.
You claimed that the US was the least likely to do this sort of thing…
Instead, despite the incompetence, they are clearly spearheading this globally along with the UK. Making it most decidedly the first place that will have to deal with this crap.
Not the last.
Not even two weeks later, California is making OS level age verification a thing.
Really, really well made mashed potates is heavenly.
Combine with the grease from some meat you’re serving it with… Yum.
Steel?
When is someone gonna innovate, and develop the tech to do this with TUNGSTEN?












That’s handled by nginx, which strips out the menu items when serving to external IP. Basically serving an html file that doesn’t contain them to begin with.
