Show HN: Stardial – a highly customizable terminal clock (Rust)

Hacker News - Sun, 03/08/2026 - 5:45am

I built Stardial, a customizable terminal clock written in Rust.

It started as an experiment to create a more flexible alternative to tools like tty-clock. Stardial supports animations, color themes, and layout customization so it can fit into different terminal setups and ricing environments.

Features: - Multiple display styles - Custom colors and themes - Animation effects - Adjustable size and layout - Designed for modern terminals

The default theme is designed to look good out of the box, but everything can be customized.

Show HN: OpenClaw – Self-host OpenClaw in one command

Hacker News - Sun, 03/08/2026 - 5:35am

Hi HN,

I got tired of trusting cloud services with my AI conversations — so I built the setup I actually wanted: encrypted disk, hardened OS, one-command deploy.

Demo: https://github.com/congzhangzh/your_openclaw/raw/main/demos/...

The idea is simple: if you're going to self-host AI, do it right — from the bare metal up.

Layer 1 — The disk: LUKS encryption + Btrfs compression (or ZFS native encryption). AI logs, API keys, model configs — everything at rest is encrypted. Someone pulls your disk? They get nothing.

Layer 2 — The OS: Debian Trixie. Stable, predictable, full toolchain. No surprise updates breaking your gateway at 3 AM.

Layer 3 — The container: Docker with Tini as PID 1 (proper signals, no zombies). Data lives on the host as plain files (~/.openclaw) — ls, cp, rsync. No opaque volumes.

Layer 4 — The gateway: OpenClaw with token auth + device approval. Connect Telegram and more. Guided onboard walks you through everything.

The whole setup:

git clone https://github.com/congzhangzh/your_openclaw.git && cd your_openclaw ./shell That's it. `openclaw onboard` inside the container does the rest.

Built-in monitoring (btop, nload, iftop) in the container. Ctrl+P, Ctrl+Q to detach — gateway runs 24/7.

Repo includes VPS disk encryption guides and provider recommendations. MIT-licensed. I use this daily on a cheap European VPS.

Feedback welcome: - Is the layered security overkill or just right? - Are you encrypting your VPS disks? - What AI backends are you running?

Ask HN: Can I repurpose a Bluetooth voice remote as input device for a PC?

Hacker News - Sun, 03/08/2026 - 5:30am

I am exploring ways to work with my PC that doesnt involve always sitting at a desk and typing with hands like a cave man.

Testing out using Wispr Flow and similar voice inputs -- seems to work fine for some use cases.

I also place the laptop on a treadmill sometimes and try to to get some research / browsing / work done. Mouse (trackball) and typing are the current weakest link.

are there decent handheld input gadgets that allow simple trackpad / click / scroll up&down / next&previous type of navigation and a push-to-talk voice input? I am looking at cheap remotes for FireTV stick and other streaming boxes that seem to have voice input -- anyway one could hack one of those to do our bidding and pair with a PC?

Ask HN: How are you handling persistent memory across local Ollama sessions

Hacker News - Sun, 03/08/2026 - 5:29am

I build a lot of small AI tools locally, mostly on top of Ollama, and the thing I keep running into is that every session starts from zero. Whatever context I built up the night before, whatever the model learned about how I like things structured, whatever half-finished reasoning we were working through together, it is just gone when I open a new terminal.

For a while I was just manually pasting in context at the start of every session which is exactly as painful as it sounds. Eventually I built a small proxy that sits between my client and Ollama and tries to solve this. It embeds recent interactions, stores them locally, and injects the relevant chunks when a new session starts. It works well enough that I actually use it every day now, but I built it the way someone with no formal CS background builds things, which means I patched it into shape and I am not totally confident the architecture is right.

The part that still bothers me is scoping. I work on a few different projects at the same time and I do not want context from one bleeding into another. Right now I am managing that by hand, basically just keeping separate directories and being careful, but that feels like a workaround not a solution.

Genuinely curious what other people have landed on. Are you using a vector DB for retrieval, or plain files, or something MCP based, or have you just accepted that local sessions are stateless and built your workflow around that? And if you have solved the scoping problem cleanly I really want to know how.
