Bookmarks with Raindrop MCP

A few years ago, we looked at organizing bookmarks using Logseq and Raindrop.io collections. To be honest, this was neat but still failed to really give me the ideal bookmark experience I am looking for. I want to have huge collections of bookmarks I never look at but still be able to retrieve them easily when the pages/topics come up in my mind. I had looked at some of the AI powered bookmark services, but I desperately do not want to add another service in the mix....

A Better Bookmark Experience with Raindrop.io and Logseq

Bookmarks Suck Bookmarks, which should be such a fundamental and powerful part of browsing the web, has got to be one of the most poorly executed parts of our modern browsing experience.

AI Generated QR Codes with Stable Diffusion and ControlNet

ControlNet was released early this year and lets you ‘control’ image generation in Stable Diffusion images with normals/depth maps, face poses, globally aware inpainting, and more. Learning how to use ControlNet has been on my to-do list for some time, but I lacked a project interesting enough to really get started on that. If you want a good general overview and guide for using ControlNet, take a look here. 
 in life the QRCodeMonsters win I first found QRCodeMonster after seeing this meme on the Stable Diffusion Reddit and being curious how they got that working....
