Show HN: FastUbu – An Ultrafast Video Archive
Ubu is a 30 year old archive of strange films you'd usually only see in museums. I felt it was a perfect candidate for modern Midjourney-like performance.<p>Really enjoyed using Cheng Lou's pretext and masonry pattern. AI indexing, transcription, and video processing via my startup Kino's API
Show HN: Freestyle – Wispr Flow Alternative that respects privacy
Hey HN, I'm Matt. For the past couple of weeks, I've been hacking on Freestyle. It's an open source voice dictation app.<p>I was an avid Wispr Flow user before but didn't like how it was cloud only. Every thought sent to their servers for transcription.<p>I've been working on an alternative that lets you run models locally, like Whisper, Qwen, Sensevoice. That way thoughts never leave your device. Would really appreciate any feedback!!
Got access to Gemini's actual thinking
Here it is. It appeared because of a glitch. I can't figure anything out of this, looks very simple to me, but maube others might see a pattern:thought
The user wants to get the subtitles for a Doraemon episode translated from Japanese to English.

Show HN: Turn native language audio into flashcards and shadowing practice
Here is a tool I built initially for myself to help with my German and Greek language studies. It started as a hack for creating Anki cards from native language audio. It extracts the words, finds their base forms (lemmas) and groups the examples by the lemma. At some point I realised that I have a transcription with word level timestamps that opens a lot of other opportunities. So I added a mode to click the first and last word in the transcript and it starts looping with the right gap and repe
Show HN: Unofficial cross-platform Shure MV client
(Disclosure: This tool makes my repo obsolete. I am not the code author.)A few years ago, I used Wireshark to sniff and decode the protocol for the Shure MVX2U, a USB/3.5mm adapter for professional microphones. Shure did not have a method for changing adapter settings in Linux or Android, and I didn't have a Windows/Mac computer, so I wrote a CLI client in Python plus an Android app. The CLI tool had a few small bugs, and I could never figure out how to change settings in one endp

Show HN: PMB – local-first memory for AI coding agents over MCP
How it works:
- Storage uses one SQLite database file, plus a local LanceDB index of vectors. No need for a server, cloud services, or any API keys.
- Retrieval is a hybrid approach using BM25 (rank-bm25) and vector-based search (sentence-transformers) combined with a co-occurrence graph of entities, using reciprocal rank fusion. The idea is to find the right memory, not the closest one.
- It plugs into the agent's lifecycle via MCP: before the agent responds, relevant memories are added to
