Ask HN: What ist your AdBlock strategy?

Hacker News - Mon, 10/28/2024 - 8:16am

Hi, Just installed OpenWRT. Which solutions for ad blocking and other trackers would you recommend? Pi-Hole is not a option, since I don't have one laying around.

So anything else I can try which will work out of the box? For links and guides I'd be happy. PS: I got dual antennas what would come into your mind to do with it?

Show HN: EmailMagnet – A dead-simple Chrome extension

Hacker News - Mon, 10/28/2024 - 8:13am

Hey HN! I built EmailMagnet because I was spending too much time manually copying emails from websites. It's intentionally simple: it runs in the background while you browse and automatically collects email addresses, with zero configuration needed.

Core functionality:

Silently collects emails as you browse (no clicking, no setup) - One-click export to CSV/TXT - Basic deduplication to keep your list clean

That's it! No bloat, no complexity

Here's the thing: I believe in "do one thing well" principle. EmailMagnet doesn't try to be your full-featured CRM or email marketing suite - it just finds emails really well while staying out of your way.

Why I'm sharing this:

It's my first product launch and I'd love your feedback I want to make it better and I know HN is the perfect place to get brutally honest suggestions I'm genuinely curious if others find this simple approach valuable

The backstory: I tried several email finding tools but they were all either too complex in UI, too expensive or required too many clicks... I wanted something that just works in the background while I do my normal research.

Would love your thoughts on:

- Is this simple approach actually useful? - What critical features am I missing? - How would you improve it without making it bloated? - Any suggestions for better email pattern matching?

Try it: https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/emailmagnet-email-e...

Current pricing: €4/week, €8/month or €48/year (50% off)

I know this is a simple tool but sometimes simple is exactly what we need. Looking forward to your feedback!!

Ask HN: Anyone know this is happening?

Hacker News - Mon, 10/28/2024 - 7:22am

I havent' smoked weed since college, I'm about to turn 50. I started smoking it through a pipe recently, i ordered it from weedmaps, but what I'm wondering is the nug only gives me like 2-3 good hits, and then its dust -- is that normal? I havent' smoked since the 90s.

Back when I did smoke in highschool we used to pass the whole thing around a few times. Why am I only getting a few hits?
