Nope, or at least, not through any obvious paths I've ever seen, including testing just now. Also, both discord and imgur trimmed an image I uploaded to just the image data. Slack did not, however. I certainly wouldn't want to r

Landing and taking off could be advantageous if the weather is bad, since the rest can allow the bird to wait out the bad weather. Also, I wonder how many of these birds are adapting to finding food on the ships.

It's also annoying since there appears to be a hard limit of 25 MiB to the request size, requiring you to split up larger files and manage the "prompt" to subsequent calls. Well, somehow, near as I can tell, how you're

Normally Windows apps can call SetThreadExecutionState to request the screensaver not come on. Video players do this, as do some other apps. See here[1] for a Powershell script that does just this, for example. I suppose they could have d

If you want an CLI version of a similar idea, you can use yt-dlp and some simple jq to pull down the captions for a file: curl `\ yt-dlp -j "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aeWyp2vXxqA" | \ jq -r &
