Highlander
Cheapest Realtime Video Generation with Minimax FastH3
What it does
The cheapest way to generate real-time 768p AI video. We were inspired by infiniteslop.ai by @levelsio and tried rebuilding it but could not find cheap alternatives. Instead, we built custom GPU kernels to get the best price to performance ratio. We serve MiniMax H3 Fast at 50% of the cost of competitors. This product is ideal for people looking to build realtime video applications!
MiniMax FastH3 at $0.005/s ($0.30/min). 1344×768 with native audio, over an API.
We serve efficient realtime video streams with MiniMax FastH3 at $0.005 /s ( $0.30 /min) for a limited time. Photorealistic Scottish Highland bull walking straight toward the camera along a windswept mountain ridge at golden hour. Thick ginger-red coat, long fringe covering the eyes, wide curved horns. Wind rips through the fringe and beard. The camera dollies backward at chest height, staying locked on the bull as it closes the distance. Wet grass and heather flatten under each hoof. Mist rolls off the valley behind it. Distant loch and peaks in the background. Hoofbeats, wind, and a low snort on the soundtrack. Continuous uninterrupted shot, no cuts, shallow depth of field, cinematic…from highlander.sh

Hi HN, I built Eigendrum, a web tool that solves the 2D wave equation for arbitrary shapes so you can hear what they sound like as drums. How it works: * Solves -∇²u = λu using finite element analysis (Kφ = λMφ) on a triangle mesh. * Validated to <0.1% error against closed-form solutions for circles (Bessel zeros) and rectangles. * Sound model factors in strike location, Rayleigh damping, and mallet width. * Includes Kac drums I & II to demonstrate identical sound spectra from different geometries. * No frameworks, build steps, or dependencies. Repo and tests:…

I made OwnTime to balance between competing priorities in my life. The idea is based on two main influences: the concept of "roles" from "The 5 Choices" (2015), and my repeated failure to effectively implement time blocking due to the necessary flexibility in my role. The app allows you to define time budgets, which are not much more than a few mutually exclusive countdown timers. The UX is essentially that of a chess clock for an arbitrary number of players with configurable time. The whole point of the app is to kick you out of the running role/priority when its time is up. One…
