• What’s the best website to use as a timer?

  Check out hourglass if you are on Windows. It’s a simple portable timer with no fluff. Source: over 1 year ago

• how to add a timer that is counting down from a certain amount of hours that stays on the the screen and doesn't reset when laptop shuts down

  I have not used or tried this app https://chris.dziemborowicz.com/apps/hourglass/. Source: almost 2 years ago

• Anybody know a good countdown timer for windows? I'd rather not use whatever web tools are out there. All I want out of it is to start the countdown over with just one click, and set my own alarm sound.

  Https://chris.dziemborowicz.com/apps/hourglass/ put your alarm sounds in C:\Program Files (x86)\Hourglass or just the local folder if you use the portable version. Source: over 2 years ago

• [Steam] Summer Sale 2021 (Day 5)

  Put a slightly less than 2hr timer (e.g. I use this https://chris.dziemborowicz.com/apps/hourglass/ but any similar would do), if you are not sure then uninstall and ask for a refund. EZ PZ. Source: about 3 years ago

• Program to display timer/stopwatch on taskbar in windows 10?

  Try https://tomighty.github.io/ or https://chris.dziemborowicz.com/apps/hourglass/ - when minimized to taskbar icon it shows time progress as a background colour. If you find something better let me know. I also looking for a regular clock in taskbar (hour & minutes only). Source: about 3 years ago

• Learn AutoHotKey by stealing my scripts

  I use AutoKey on Linux. It's less powerful than AHK but uses native Python which is nice: https://github.com/autokey/autokey. - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago

• AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D: Windows 11 vs. Ubuntu 23.04 Linux Performance

  On Linux, the more direct equivalent to AHK is the similarly named AutoKey. AHK itself is never going to be cross-platform, due to the low-level it interacts specifically with Windows, but AutoKey is the Linux equivalent, designed to interact low-level with Linux in a similar way to AHK on Windows.

• Text expansion app for Linux

  I've seen people mention AutoKey but I've never used it myself: https://github.com/autokey/autokey. Source: over 1 year ago

• Ergonomic lefty for Chromebook, with a good middle-click?

  You can also try remapping mouse buttons. I use autohotkey to remap the middle clock to the right click. Autohotkey is windows only, but there is autokey which might help if you are a heavy middle click user like me. Source: over 1 year ago

• Macros for Linux? Like autoit, or automated mouse/keyboard presses.

  There's also Autokey, not Wayland compatible though. Source: over 1 year ago
