What's weird is that it was to create a thumbnail for a video about creating thumbnails in Cavalry 😵‍💫😅 youtu.be/yQK4oxf3Xs4 https://youtu.be/yQK4oxf3Xs412 Jun 2026 16:24 +0000at://did:plc:ivnqwwgg3warripia6chdmsg/app.bsky.feed.post/3mo45o53j7k2phttps://bsky.app/profile/hntbo.bsky.social/post/3mns6rmmscp2jBruteBookmarks now remembers the last active tab in each group after a reload. Small thing, but it means your bookmark workspace reopens exactly where your brain left it. Also new: letter-key filtering. Tap G to surface GitHub, Google Drive, Gmail... without losing categories or tab groups.08 Jun 2026 17:17 +0000at://did:plc:ivnqwwgg3warripia6chdmsg/app.bsky.feed.post/3mns6rmmscp2jhttps://bsky.app/profile/hntbo.bsky.social/post/3mmm4uclt4f2sGoing live at 16:20 Paris: Stealing Like an Artist: Typography Animation in Cavalry Reverse-engineering a typography animation reference in Cavalry.

I also used this release to improve the new category workflow. The previous version technically worked, but it was clunky: the action was too far away from the category bars.11 May 2026 14:41 +0000at://did:plc:ivnqwwgg3warripia6chdmsg/app.bsky.feed.post/3mllizqt5rr2lhttps://bsky.app/profile/hntbo.bsky.social/post/3mljjvm5sh22uI just submitted a BruteBookmarks Quick Save update to the Chrome Web Store. While working on it, I added a small quality-of-life feature that removes friction when moving between tab categories.10 May 2026 19:52 +0000at://did:plc:ivnqwwgg3warripia6chdmsg/app.bsky.feed.post/3mljjvm5sh22uhttps://bsky.app/profile/hntbo.bsky.social/post/3mljccplys22wI think I'm in love with Cavalry. Tip for magic easing : doesn't work when the transform keyframe mode is toggled. But man, how awesome is this feature 😍10 May 2026 17:36 +0000at://did:plc:ivnqwwgg3warripia6chdmsg/app.bsky.feed.post/3mljccplys22whttps://bsky.app/profile/hntbo.bsky.social/post/3mle5jbwsi62hSmall clarification about BruteBookmarks Quick Save: BruteBookmarks already works for free, locally, without an account. But Quick Save currently does not. It requires an account, and my communication made it sound like the local-only workflow applied there too. That’s on me.08 May 2026 16:27 +0000at://did:plc:ivnqwwgg3warripia6chdmsg/app.bsky.feed.post/3mle5jbwsi62hhttps://bsky.app/profile/hntbo.bsky.social/post/3mkzzyegbkx2hGood news: both BruteBookmarks extensions are now live on the Chrome Web Store, much quicker than expected 😄 Free and open source.

But I’m also much less of a consumer, whether that’s media, which has a lot of infrastructure too, or physical products.29 Apr 2026 12:19 +0000at://did:plc:ivnqwwgg3warripia6chdmsg/app.bsky.feed.post/3mkn3hynwna2shttps://bsky.app/profile/hntbo.bsky.social/post/3mkfp2r3y5h2aGoing live at 4:30 PM CET.

Can't help it... I also know that each "thanks" brings the whole conversation back to the servers. But I found the way to enforce my rigid politeness without draining rivers pointlessly: I bundle my thank you note with my next instruction.15 Apr 2026 14:41 +0000at://did:plc:ivnqwwgg3warripia6chdmsg/app.bsky.feed.post/3mjk4v7bkpy2zhttps://bsky.app/profile/hntbo.bsky.social/post/3mjhw3ykvre24I dug into Google's Veo 3.1 pricing. The numbers are wild. API access vs Google AI Ultra credits: the gap is not small. On Fast, it's about 8x-24x depending on resolution.
