A macOS menu bar app that gives your battery a personality. Five distinct voices, escalating commentary, and voice mode. Free on the Mac App Store.
A macOS menu bar app that gives your MacBook battery five personalities and a voice. It comments as you drain, and gets less patient the lower you go. Icon, percentage, or both. Sits quietly up top, no Dock icon and no window, until your battery gives it something to say. Dramatic. Matter of Fact. Passive Aggressive. Anxious. Stoic. Each one writes its own commentary at every battery threshold. Dozens of unique lines, never the same twice. Turn on voice mode and your Mac reads the commentary out loud, free, in any system voice. Want more? Percy, the mascot from TikTok, voices his own pack in his real recorded voice. One-time $2.99 unlock. No account. No data leaves your Mac. No analytics.…from batterybeggar.com

I made a laptop stand out of solid concrete, in the style of brutalist architecture, with themes of urbex and urban decay

With social media and now AI, its important to keep the indie web alive. There are many people who write frequently. Blogosphere tries to highlight them by fetching the recent posts from personal blogs across many categories. There are two versions: Minimal (HN-inspired, fast, static): https://text.blogosphere.app/ Non-minimal: https://blogosphere.app/ If you don't find your blog (or your favorite ones), please add them. I will review and approve it.
