This week in Manual
Monday, Jan 12th
enclose.horse. Use all the barriers to prevent the horse from escaping and, at the same time, give it as much space as possible. A new challenge every day, free of charge. More cool links.
Tuesday, Jan 13th
Apple Creator Studio. Apple will release an equivalent to the Adobe suite on January 28th. Apple Creator Studio brings together ten apps, stock images, and AI resources in a subscription of USD 12.99/month or USD 129/year. Does it look like… a good deal? (The icons are ugly, though.)
BTN-1 Macro Deck. A four-key (mechanical!) keypad made especially to be integrated with Home Assistant. Available for USD 35. More cool links.
Wednesday, Jan 14th
Is it possible to live without WhatsApp? I tried.
WikiFlix. A "streaming" (more like an index) of free movies or those that have fallen into the public domain. There's a lot of good stuff! More cool links.
Thursday, Jan 15th
Oto Music, the best mp3 player for Android. If your plan is to listen to music files like I do, but your phone is Android, Oto Music is the best option I found for this system.
What’s on your phone, Alberto? The first phone of the year is very unusual: Alberto Barbosa's Cat S22, a flip phone that runs Android GO.
25 years of Wikipedia. Wikipedia is one of the most inspiring projects of our generation. Imagine if we could take the dynamics from there to other areas of life? The world would be a better place. More cool links.
Thanks for reading!
