News : Affint use integrations to help you.

The basic idea is to integrate various services with an online artificial intelligence. With this online tool based on artificial intelligence I did a small project with Google to process emails using artificial intelligence to extract from a series of emails with complex content such as patterns, linked to various online tools. You have to let this tool have access to the email. As for saving to Google Drive, but I didn't get around to implementing something like that.

See the official webpage.

Affint connects over 200 business tools according to the official description.

Other sources mention 50+ direct integrations in their AI editor.

News : Grok : disappointed me with the audio part.

Today I tested the text to audio conversion part and I was disappointed. I used the same text on an image from the Star Trek Online game and then used a python script to combine the videos.

Grok is one of the most tested AIs on the animation side by me. I use it for content and testing and I can say that it is limited to converting text to audio, gymnastic moves with animals: jumping over your head... It is easy to be misled by animated combinations of words. I control the movement part between the character and the rendered camera mode quite well. What disappointed me the most is the audio part. This is the text I used with Grok AI , bad sound result: She is confident and introduces herself to the audience with these words: "Hello, Captain, I'm Beverly Crusher, born Beverly Howard on October 13, 2324, in Copernicus City, Luna. I attended Starfleet Academy from 2342 to 2350. Some people call me the Dancing Doctor."

Security : VPN's and Hydra Catapult, WireGuard and more ...

Today a little about security with VPN...

Hydra Catapult is a protocol developed by AnchorFree to deliver blazing-fast download and upload speeds over a secure VPN ...

This protocol was developed by Hotspot Shield.

One of the key features of Catapult Hydra is its use of optimized algorithms for data transmission, which dynamically adjust the speed and quality of the connection based on network conditions.

Hydra is able to block many VPN blocks, as it goes mostly unnoticed. That being said, Large Government entities can usually identify Hydra

When using the WireGuard protocol, the Split tunneling functionality is not available. If you want to use this functionality, choose a different protocol.

• ExpressVPN
• NordVPN
• Private Internet Access
• Surfshark
• CyberGhost
• ProtonVPN
• IPVanish
• Hotspot Shield
• TunnelBear
• VyprVPN

NOTE:

Hydra VPN can be hacked not because it is Hydra specifically, but because it is a free service without public security audits, may rely on less secure servers, and can be compromised through weak passwords vulnerable to brute‑force tools like Hydra, making a premium VPN with independent audits a safer choice.

Se the basic of a hacking vpn from Top10VPN - the official youtube channel.

News : Snowpack the new tool for modern web

Snowpack is a lightning-fast frontend build tool, designed for the modern web. It is an alternative to heavier, more complex bundlers like webpack or Parcel in your development workflow. Snowpack leverages JavaScript's native module system (known as ESM) to avoid unnecessary work and stay fast no matter how big your project grows.

News : Skypack the new modern CDN for JavaScript.

• Skypack is a modern CDN for JavaScript that lets you load npm packages directly in the browser as ES modules, without installing them locally or using a bundler.
• Key features:
  • Serves npm packages as browser-ready ES Modules.
  • Applies automatic optimizations like minification, compression, and HTTP/2 or HTTP/3 delivery.
  • Fixes compatibility issues so many Node-focused packages work directly in the browser.
• Example import:

  import confetti from "https://cdn.skypack.dev/canvas-confetti";

• More examples:
  • https://cdn.skypack.dev/preact@10
  • https://cdn.skypack.dev/bootstrap@next/dist/css/bootstrap.min.css
• In short: Skypack turns npm packages into optimized, browser-ready ES modules with zero build step.

News : ... about my hacked system by provider.

I still haven't managed to block the hacking attacks that the provider is making, it's installed quite well and is happily learning about being a hacker and incompetent, filling in files and blocking them... you'd better watch TV - if it doesn't burn it through coaxial, everything works here...

Here are the steps to delete a file and a folder that is blocking my Active Presenter software from making movies...

Run Process Explorer as Administrator so it can access all open handles, then press Ctrl + F to open the Find Handle or DLL search window, and search for the folder or file name by typing something like Untitled1_tempdir, video_20260104_21-02-22.mp4

See this tool

The folder is locked by an NTFS kernel‑level lock.
There is no doubt anymore.
It’s not a process.
It’s not an attribute.
It’s not an ACL.
It’s not the antivirus.
It’s not Explorer.
It’s not Windows Search.
It’s not ffmpeg.
It’s not ActivePresenter.

It’s a kernel handle that keeps the folder “alive” even though it’s empty.

This happens EXACTLY when a program (ActivePresenter) crashes while writing to the folder.
Windows is left with an internal lock on that directory, and any delete command is rejected.

And now comes the important part:

🔥 There is NO command in CMD or PowerShell that can break a kernel lock.
None.
Zero.
No matter how much you try, the result will always be the same: “Access is denied.”

• PowerShell – delete file

  Remove-Item ".\video_20260104_21-02-22.mp4" -Force

• PowerShell – delete folder

  Remove-Item Untitled1_tempdir -Recurse -Force

  Remove-Item "C:\Users\catafest\Documents\ActivePresenter\.ActivePresenterCachedProjects\Untitled1_tempdir" -Recurse -Force

• PowerShell – take ownership

  takeown /F ".\video_20260104_21-02-22.mp4"

  takeown /F . /R /D Y

• PowerShell – ACL operations

  icacls . /grant "$env:USERNAME:F" /T /C

  icacls .

• PowerShell – search for locking processes

  Get-Process | Where-Object { $_.Modules.FileName -like "video_20260104_21-02-22.mp4" } 2>$null

• PowerShell – stop services

  Stop-Service WSearch -Force

• CMD – delete folder contents

  del Untitled1_tempdir

• CMD – delete folder (NTFS raw path)

  rd /s /q \\?\C:\Users\catafest\Documents\ActivePresenter\.ActivePresenterCachedProjects\Untitled1_tempdir

  rd /s /q "C:\Users\catafest\Documents\ActivePresenter\.ActivePresenterCachedProjects\Untitled1_tempdir"

• CMD – move folder

  move \\?\C:\Users\catafest\Documents\ActivePresenter\.ActivePresenterCachedProjects\Untitled1_tempdir C:\Temp

• CMD – recreate folder

  mkdir Untitled1_tempdir

• Registry – pending delete (failed)

News : Ultrahuman build GATT with Android Studio under one hour.

Ultrahuman is a consumer health-tech startup that provides daily well-being insights to users based on biometric data from the company’s wearables, like the RING Air and the M1 Live Continuous Glucose Monitor (CGM). The Ultrahuman team leaned on Gemini in Android Studio's contextually aware tools to streamline and accelerate their development process.

GATT is an acronym for the Generic ATTribute Profile, and it defines the way that two Bluetooth Low Energy devices transfer data back and forth using concepts called Services and Characteristics. It makes use of a generic data protocol called the Attribute Protocol (ATT), which is used to store Services, Characteristics and related data in a simple lookup table using 16-bit IDs for each entry in the table.

NOTE: Quite impressively, I managed to create a basic default app with bluetooth when there was no artificial intelligence and with complicated Android Studio settings in almost a day. Obviously the most complicated were the settings, I will test if they are as complicated in the future if I need to.

---

The recal ai comes with these result:

Summary of Issues and Their Accuracy

    No Bulk Copy or Export of Errors
        Godot does not provide a built-in way to copy multiple errors at once or export them to a file, which can be inconvenient for developers.
        This limitation exists in stable versions. However, error logs are saved in log files, which can be used as a workaround 00:01:00

    No Set Data Type in GDScript
        GDScript lacks a native set type, forcing users to use dictionaries or arrays to represent collections without duplicates, which is less intuitive.
        This is a real limitation in stable releases 00:02:00

    AnimationPlayer Issues
        Function calls in AnimationPlayer are referenced by name, so renaming functions breaks animations.
        Parameters must be manually specified, making the system fragile and error-prone.
        Duplicated resources are not unique by default, requiring manual "make unique" steps to avoid unintended shared changes.
        These problems are present in stable versions and affect daily use 00:03:00

    GDScript Type System Limitations
        No support for nested types or interfaces, limiting code robustness and scalability.
        Dictionary methods do not infer types automatically, requiring explicit type declarations that can lead to errors.
        These limitations exist in stable versions 00:05:00

    Node Type Confusion
        Nodes have two types: one from the scene hierarchy and one from the attached script, which can cause scripts to access non-existent properties, leading to fragile code.
        This is a real issue in stable Godot versions 00:06:00

    3D Asset Import Creates Extra Scene Node
        Imported 3D models come as a scene with a root Node3D containing the mesh, making access to the mesh less direct and somewhat clunky.
        This usability issue is present in stable versions
