RoboExtension
Copy 10×, move 406× faster than Windows Explorer
What it does
Copying thousands of small files mixed with large ones in Windows Explorer can take days — with no guarantee of finishing. One locked file stalls everything, errors tell you nothing, and you never know what actually made it through. RoboExtension fixes this with the same Ctrl+C, Ctrl+V, right-click — no workflow change. Only up to 10× faster small-file copies, same-volume moves 406× faster, drive-type detection, locked file handling, retry as Administrator, and a post-operation failure report.

Hey everyone, just wanted to share a quick project I built a bit ago and finally cleaned up enough to post. The premise is simple, you have a file on one computer that you want on a different computer on the same network and don't want a lot of fuss. For the file you want to copy, on the machine where the file is located, run: ./bcp filename Now go to the computer (on the same network) where you want the file to be at, and run: ./bcp The file will be copied over the network and you're done. I created it as a nice way of not having to worry about ssh or anything else really. In fact, it is so…

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.
