Mon, 13 Apr 2026 10:39:42 +0000

File Converter adds conversion to your right-click menu in File Explorer: select one or twenty files, right-click, choose the format, and you’re done. It is free, open source (GPL v3 license), and uses the same conversion engines as much more famous programs, starting with FFmpeg.

Compared to online converters, it has two major advantages: your files never leave your computer, and there are no size limits, waiting queues, ads, or watermarks.

Run AI Models Locally with LM Studio

Sat, 27 Sep 2025 17:35:46 +0000

If you run a language model on your computer, your documents never leave your machine and you don’t pay any subscription fees. LM Studio is the easiest way to do it: just install it, choose a model from the catalog, and start typing. The limiting factor is memory: you need at least as much RAM as the size of the model file, plus some extra headroom.

Setting realistic expectations. Models running on a home computer are less capable than those used by major online services. For summarizing, paraphrasing, classifying, translating, and reasoning over your documents, they work great; however, for complex tasks, you will notice the difference compared to ChatGPT or Claude.

There are four Discord alternatives worth considering: TeamSpeak and Mumble for voice, Matrix for those who want encryption, and Stoat for those looking for something similar to Discord. None of them do everything Discord does, so the choice depends on how your group uses it.

Discord captured the gaming audience by combining text chat, voice channels, video, large communities, and thousands of bots, all without requiring anyone to configure a server. People usually leave because of privacy concerns, wanting a lighter program, or because they don’t like the direction the platform is taking. In this guide, you will find the options still active in 2026, including what you gain and what you lose with each one.

Best Free WYSIWYG HTML Editors for the Web

Fri, 07 Jun 2024 22:36:41 +0000

A WYSIWYG editor is a library that transforms a text field into a mini word processor within the page. More than just features, two things really matter: the license, because several legacy libraries have changed theirs in recent years, and the quality of the HTML they produce.

The acronym stands for “what you see is what you get”: whoever is writing sees the text already formatted instead of tags, and can usually switch to a source code view to make tweaks. You’ll find them in admin panels, CMSs, and anywhere someone who doesn’t know HTML needs to publish something.
