I'll have to check it out next time. Thanks for sharing!
Dear the creator of "Everything is Calm":
Please consider rebranding to "Gaslight"

Damn, downvoted... sucks but guess i have to cater to explaining my own joke :-( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaslighting
Usually, whenever I see something I like on the Internet these days, I "print to PDF" so I can have an offline copy. This is a great habit and I just do it out of routine these days.
So when I did it for this site, I was quite surprised that cmd-P didn't give me the standard Print dialog, but rather downloaded a pre-formatted PDF straight from the site, directly, instead.
Whoa! How do they do that? Cool feature, saves me a few clicks .. ;)

I also want to keep useful stuff for offline consumption, I used to do pdf printing...Now I use pocket , a free service, with addon on chrome , one click add to pocket... and on Android free app... working great for last few months I have been using.
Brings up Chromes regular print dialog for me. Maybe your browser or a plugin are responsible.

That is about the funniest/coolest/most awesome thing I have read all week!
Oh man, there need to be more stupid hackathons. Does anyone know the process to organize one? I'd be happy to help get one going here in the Netherlands.
That'd be fun. Wouldn't mind to volunteer (am living in Amsterdam).
Sound like a great idea. I would like to join!
I would assume it's similar to organizing a hackathon, might be harder to get sponsors though.
I think you email them and are not a jerk and have a stupid website and then you have one.
smart organizers, stupid hackathons.

Whereabouts are you located in the Netherlands, I'd love to join a stupid hackathon
hi, organizer of swedish stupidhackathon here. i sent an email to the people at stupidhackathon.com. they were super sweet and told us to go for it. so do it - go for it.

what's nice about organizing a stupid hackathon is that it's really easy. if someting doesn't work out you can just shrug your shoulders and say hey that's stupid. like our livestream for instance. i forgot to plug in the microphone so there was no sound. very stupid!

I think this may be trough IoT. Or, if you're going with the IoT-inspired Twitter feed about the phenomenon, Peak Internet of Shite :-)

This is the best of the bunch.

Fun and silly projects. I think telnet.texttv.nu aside from also being neat might actually be useful.
I admit, the smart keyboard or IntelKey or whatever sparked my interest. I don't know what it does, but I think keyboards could use a major improvement. I'm thinking something like a stenograph machine with just 20 some keys instead of my 114 key keyboard. The keyboard would need to recognize context of my "to" and "there" in order to put the right word in. So I could see an inline rasp pi or arduino doing this task. I could then type 3 times as fast. Maybe voice controls will just take over instead. Nevermind.
Shameless plug:

Write text with 12 keys and 2 keypresses for each symbol. Potentially a symbol also could be a string or a command or whatever.

It replaces words, and some other cool functions.
"Trump" is replaced by "Mr President". "Stupid" is replaced by "Intelligent".
At some point it quotes the phonetic alphabet. I didn't look hard enough to work out what triggers it.

Wouldn't a chorded keyboard be more practical? In both cases you have to learn how to type from scratch, but at least this is us already widely used.

That woodpecker is genius. And also sad. Would be a pretty great modern art piece imo.

Stupid Shell has a bright future
Considering the amount of stupid people in the world, yes it might have. However, I am quite stupid as well, and accidentally deleted the source code during the demo.
Two seconds of regret, followed by a profound feeling of "this is perfect, I am stupid".

We're having one in NYC on February 25th for those who are interested... http://stupidhackathon.com
Im pretty impressed about the stupid Shell X)
Image Size Slayer is pretty awesome.
I'm trying to use it and it's stuck thinking about my image. I wonder if it's suffering the HN hug of death, or if I just selected a very difficult cat photo.
Did you do the catcha? It might think you're a cat and that's your selfie.
It reminds me of these two projects:

it's actually not stupid at all imho... it's like.. conceptual compression
Yeah... that made me laugh. Clever / stupid!
The Panic Room one is kind of a neat novelty VR app... you are put in a room with the room's rotation controlled by a person holding a physical box the size of the room.

What is this, a room for ants?

It is a finger box. A real collectors item!
I still have a couple finger boxes packed away somewhere. There was a major resurgence in the fad about 7 years ago.
It's easy to do, just follow these steps:

Hah, I meant to say shape. My mistake.
Is this anywhere downloadable? Looks really impressive.
It would be really cool if this could be controlled with two apps. One on a smartphone in the box, one as a cardboard monitor. Or is it already like that?

Not that I could see but I didn't look very hard.
Så morsomt! Thanks for posting - this was a wonderful bit of distraction.
I love Everything is Calm - probably because I'm a bad person. :-D
