AutoHotkey for Linux

In plain words

AutoHotkey for Linux is a reimplementation of the Windows automation scripting language for Unix-like systems. It supports classic AutoHotkey v1.0 syntax for creating hotkeys, automation scripts, and GUIs. The tool can convert scripts into standalone binaries. While it covers essential functionality, some commands remain incomplete compared to the full Windows version. It is designed for users familiar with AutoHotkey who need similar automation capabilities on Linux systems.

In the maker’s words, at launch

Hello HN, this is the first functional reimplementation of AutoHotkey [1] for Unix-like systems, as far as I am aware. Half the commands are still missing, but everything important is done, as I have worked a lot on it over the past two months. Converting scripts into stand alone binaries is also supported. Hope this…

  Pornpen.ai – AI-Generated Porn▲711

  Hey HN, I've been working on https://pornpen.ai, a site for generating adult images. Please only visit the site if you are 18+ and willing to look at NSFW images. This site is an experiment using newer text-to-image models. I explicitly removed the ability to specify custom text to avoid harmful imagery from being generated. New tags will be added once the prompt-engineering algorithm is fine-tuned further. If the servers are overloaded, take a look at the feed and search pages to look through past results. For comments/suggestions/feedback please visit…
