Pasting images as WEBP on Windows
A tale as old as time: I'm playing a videogame with my pals and something interesting happens. I take a screenshot with Alt-PrtScr or Win-Shift-S, paste it into the chat, and then it takes a little bit because screenshots images are copied losslessly and not every platform will compress them.

As cohost! goes read-only on October 1, I look back at one of the things that I adored about the website: being able to make animated and/or interactive posts with (slightly restricted) CSS and HTML (no JavaScript).
People made a lot of posts utilizing these tricks, and these are some of them.

So I've had this idea for an AutoHotKey script that could turn motions from any pointing device (mice, trackballs, trackpads, etc.) into custom actions.
I guess you might call them gestures?

A tray icon showing default/navigation/numpad states
This is a little post about a trick for displaying a programmable keyboard's state (generally just the active layer) on a computer without fiddling with firmware code.
