What it does
Desktop pets have always meant hunting for character packs. Peekoo makes the mascot from a photo you already have — your cat, a friend, yourself — in about a minute. And it doesn't just sit there. It walks across your desktop, climbs the side of your windows and pulls itself up onto the ledge, types along when you type, sways when music plays, and curls up for a nap when you step away. Native app for macOS and Windows. Tiny, quiet, clicks pass right through it. Free to start.
Turn any photo into a cute AI desktop pet for Mac and Windows. It roams your desktop, climbs your windows, types along, grooves to music and naps. Free to start — a native Shimeji alternative.
It lives on your desktop — roaming around, typing along, grooving to your music, curling up when it's sleepy. Quiet, easy, always there. Wanders across your desktop and along the top of every window — never sits still. Scales the sides of your screen and leaps between windows — your desktop is its playground. When you type, it sits at its little keyboard and taps away right alongside you. The moment music plays, it closes its eyes and sways to the beat. Falling from up high, it pops open a tiny parachute and drifts gently down. Step away and it tucks itself into its little bed and drifts off. Typing, grooving, parachuting, edge-clinging, sulking, begging, getting bonked… dozens more moves…from peekoo.app

Clipto MCP▲655Hey HN, We recently built Clipto. It’s a tool that lets you search over terabytes of video, audio, and images on your computer, without relying on the cloud. Motivation: we probably all had this similar experience, we know a moment exists in a video or audio, but finding it takes hours scrubbing the timeline. You can send all the media to process in the cloud, but it’s slow, expensive and raises privacy concerns. So we decided to build our own on-device media search engine. How it works (high level): 1. We ingest video, audio, image; normalize formats via ffmpeg; run content analysis to…

Hello HN! I found that picking out plausible but diverse skin tones for my digital art and game development projects was kind of difficult, and I got curious about if there was a way to define a color space that made it easy. I've built a color picker and procedural generation algorithm based on the space as well as a bunch of other fun js features and demos throughout the page that use the equations. If you find it interesting, I have lots of explanations of how I built it and what properties the space has. The methodology might be a bit shaky, but hopefully the result is as helpful for…
