www.whatfontis.com

Figures out what the font is from an uploaded image. I’ve used it multiple times.

I always use whatthefont.com although mostly cos the name’s funny which makes it easy to remember. Any idea which is better?

dangblingus,

There’s also WhatFont add on/browser extension that lets you highlight text on a website and it’ll tell you what font it is!

No idea if this is obscure or not, but for creating diagrams I’ve found draw.io a very useful free website/tool (there’s an offline version).
The ability to hide the entire model inside the png is really neat. You can upload the png in a wiki and later on just import it to alter it again.

wewbull,

Excalidraw is my favourite. Make diagrams look like sketches so that people don’t take them too seriously.

That looks quite interesting. Draw.io has a sketch option but they always look the same. This one really makes unique shapes every time create an object. Could be quite handy for quick throwaway designs. Thank you for the recommendation.

dirtySourdough,

I’m gonna try this one today, thanks!

If you often post links to music then Songwhip is invaluable. Give it a song and it generates a page with links to many common streaming services.

Here’s an example.

Tequila by The Champs.

EnglishMobster, in Is it actually possible to change your personality

I mean, in the late 2000s I was kind of a shitty person. But in like 2014 I realized I was a piece of shit and started to work on myself.

I stopped basing my personality on how many girls I could land and started just focusing on myself and not on relationships. I spent 2 years guiding myself to a much better place, and then in 2016 I met my current fiance.

SocialEngineer56,

After all that growth - you’re still focusing on how you landed a girl /s

Congrats and good luck in your future marriage!

JPJones, in What can we do, as lemmy users, to fight fake news being pushed in the platform?
@JPJones@lemmy.one avatar

Step 1: Don’t get your news from social media.

moitoi, in Is it actually possible to change your personality

Autistics deeply masking entered the chat.

AquaTofana, in What piece of song lyric you can really relate to?

Obligatory T-Swizzle lyrics incoming:

“It’s me, hi, I’m the problem it’s me.”

I feel this whole song so fucking hard. But this line specifically because I form codependent relationships with people like crazy, and I always feel like a fuckin’ burden/like my friends or husband don’t truly like me. Like I’m stressing people out or putting too much pressure on them, so I’m not worth the effort of maintaining a relationship with.

    Holy shit. In 5 minutes of using Kagi, it’s so nice. Thanks

    Leyla,

    Neal.fun is neat. Something that I was looking for. Thank you

    Twoafros,

    I thought *Ffmpeg * meant something else

    funktion,

    That M is doing a lot of heavy lifting in this scenario

    philpo,

    Depending on the size of the peg it might not be a good idea to heavy lift for a while.

    fernandu00,

    Good Lord I’ve used ffmpeg for years to convert my videos and just realized today it’s name could be a naughty search word in adult sites

    Veneroso,
    pacjo,

    Sharedrop seems a bit dead. Consider pairdrop.net as an alternative.

    I don’t get it. It’s just pictures of helicopters.

    hungryphrog,

    What kind of helicopters? And yes, this is a genuine question.

    OceanSoap, in What piece of song lyric you can really relate to?

    I’m on a hovercraft to Paris with my former best friend. We have to get to the cinematheque. We’re not alone, but no one speaks english so we’re free to look into each other’s minds and see what we’re thinking like we always used to. I miss talking to you.
