  • qutebrowser-profile

    Ability to run qutebrowser with different profiles, choose a profile via dmenu/rofi interactively for new links

  • I've recently made the move to multiple profiles/containers by way of this script. Now that I've got some fences around my browsing roles, I figured I should have an easy way to purge all the garbage cookies that end up in my profiles.

  • snowflake

    Discontinued Snowflake is a network service for generating unique ID numbers at high scale with some simple guarantees.

  • For example, I have a "twitter" profile. When I'm done destroying my attention span and I close QB, Oatmeal will pop up in a window. I tell it to delete everything except the whitelisted cookies, in which I have "twitter.com" listed. This basically scorches the entire cookie DB, save for the twitter (and related) cookies whose hosts are in my whitelist.

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

  • I made a small Python script that works well in conjunction with this style of QB profiles. It's called Oatmeal.
