I want your lossless image optimization tool knowlegde:

Note: I´am looking for cmd tools (preferred running on mac/linux/win - but it´s not a must) Online services are welcome as well. If you have a good article, stackoverflow post or smth. else on image optimization (with statistics & stuff), i would appriciate if you could share that, too.

File Magic Numbers

Magic numbers are the first bits of a file which uniquely identify the type of file. This makes programming easier because complicated file structures need not be searched in order to identify the file type.

For example, a jpeg file starts with ffd8 ffe0 0010 4a46 4946 0001 0101 0047 ......JFIF.....G ffd8 shows that it's a JPEG file, and ffe0 identify a JFIF type structure. There is an ascii encoding of "JFIF" which comes after a length code, but that is not necessary in order to identify the file. The first 4 bytes do that uniquely.

This gives an ongoing list of file-type magic numbers.

ImageMagick Video to GIF Optimization Summary

A software developer who uses IM to create Movie GIFs, Benoit Rouleau, in discussion with me, gave me a AVI video of a plane flying over, to help us mutually explore IM video conversion techniques.

However while the AVI itself is quite small, the uncompressed video is a

Don't use VPN services.

No, seriously, don't. You're probably reading this because you've asked what VPN service to use, and this is the answer.

Note: The content in this post does not apply to using VPN for their intended purpose; that is, as a virtual private (internal) network. It only applies to using it as a glorified proxy, which is what every third-party "VPN provider" does.

• There's also this article about VPN services, which is honestly better written (and has more cat pictures!) than my article.

Generating Authy passwords on other authenticators

---

*update: TBC, but this new might affect how easy it is to use this technique past August 2024: Authy is shutting down its desktop app | The 2FA app Authy will only be available on Android and iOS starting in August

---

This gist, based in part on a gist by Brian Hartvigsen, allows you to export from Authy your TOTP tokens you have stored there.
Those can be "standard" 6-digits / 30 secs tokens, or Authy's own version, the 7-digits / 10 secs tokens.

"""This is a multi file example showcasing many features of the command extension and the use of cogs.
These are examples only and are not intended to be used as a fully functioning bot. Rather they should give you a basic
understanding and platform for creating your own bot.

These examples make use of Python 3.6.2 and the rewrite version on the lib.
