Definitely. It's probably the top feature request actually.
We wanted to get the UX feel right and a bit of a feature freeze for v1 before a Windows release.

BTW. That's not a video on the website, it's an actual working demo :facepalm: No one seems to know.

Hi all. For a long time, it felt weird that I have to take a screenshot (or copy a message), take it to ChatGPT, upload/paste and take the results back.
I built TheQuickFox to solve this. North star is: AI operating system layer.
Would love your input.

Hasbara is strong on HN. Noicce!
"Gazawood" .. so original.
All the international organizations confirming the genocide?
Ah yes, all are part of this Gazawood and Hamas.
pathetic.

I built this in span of a couple hours using Claude Code. Session was literally 1 "context window" in length!

Thanks for the feedback.

Oh interesting. And yes YouTube-dl is a good comparison.
To be clear, I’ve had a few accounts on Midjourney used mostly for testing and demo purposes. At the moment I don’t have any Midjourney account hence TOS violation doesn’t apply.

Now this is what I’m here for!
Thanks so much for taking the time to write this
Yeah if they do release an API I’m totally done. I honestly thought I’d have 3-6 months before they did but that’s not the case.
Do you see a world where I might be able to reconcile and have a positive outcome?

I was really hoping to build out an amazing API product and when time came where they want to release one it would make more sense to acquire us. Alas.

They’re huge. I’m sure their toilet paper rolls are make of $16k bills
I used to worry that the biggest threat was them releasing an API.
I’ve since learned that they won’t do that because they charge monthly fees to their customers and when a customer doesn’t use their credits, the credits don’t roll over and Midjourney pockets the cash.
Pay per use is bad for their business model.

I’m not forcing them to provide me a service at all. I’m not using their service. My customers happen to also be their customers.

Last year, I started working on a children's book generation product using AI for illustrations. In the process, I discovered Midjourney and I was blown away by the quality.I then tried to find their API so I could use it in my product. Google showed no results. I thought I was Googling wrong.It turns out, Midjourney didn't have an API<insert pivot gif from Friends>Of course, I set out to...
macOS vulnerability: Total physical access opened when screen sharing is on
I accidentally found this vulnerability that when you remote login into a Mac using Screen Sharing (included in all recent MacOS versions), someone with physical access can take over your session and lock you out of it and then have full, complete, total, absolute control over your machine.Someone crafty can watch your screen and wait until you type in a sensitive password (like root or...

Do you know how quotes work? Do you work for Apple?

Glad you're on my side here! That's what I'm saying. It should be fixed.
Were you expecting this behaviour? This isn't strange to you? Again, do you work for Apple?
Tell HN: I once hacked Tim Cook's iMac
My foray into software development is more unusual than most. I used to work as a janitor for Apple. Here's a story of how I hacked Tim Cook's iMac in 2015.It seems, Tim Cook loves his 27-inch iMac — that's all he used for the 4 years I worked there. One day as I emptying the trash can from his office — that's all we're allowed to do — I saw his screen was on and it was unlocked.I knew we're...

Hey thanks for this take. Definitely feels like the approach I should take based on their behaviour.
Besides, what’s the harm in me discussing “intended behaviour”?

Maybe I'm drinking my own koolaid here but I don't feel safe when I use this Apple device regularly.
How does Apple establish "prior art" if I go public with it? Can someone else claim credit for it?
Ask HN: How do I make Apple pay up?
On the 3rd of March, I happened on a severe security vulnerability on an Apple product. Immediately, I reported it to them via the Apple Security Research program.In the initial report, I didn't know I could upload videos and I asked them if I can upload my video proof to YouTube (unlisted). They told me not to — presumably because they didn't want this to be public.It took them until another 9...
