Show HN: Fake Zoom, hang out with AI coworkers and feel the synergy

stets — Mon, 24 Aug 2026 17:38:43 +0000

This is so stupid.

I made a fake Zoom call with AI coworkers. I generated the videos of each coworker with my 5070 ti and Minimax H3.

Click on people to hear them talk or try saying their name to hear their standup update.

If you say "STOP" they should stop talking.

Enjoy I guess

This looks like a lot of fun. I wish they'd name it better though, the name makes me think it's a raspberry pi related thing. or a piece of hardware.

Super cool!

I'm an AI-assisted coder myself...but one thing I can't stand is the way Claude writes. It's so frustrating and cringe. Tells from the README:

emdash, byte-exact, "The full engineering log", piggybacks, "none of this is possible without it", etc

A remedy I've found for this is in my Claude.md to tell it: write like a mix of simple english wikipedia, mr. rogers and ernest hemingway.

> As I’ve mentioned before, we now live in a world where creative people have to prove they created the thing they created.

Do you? Just stop caring. I don't think it makes sense to keep asserting that you're an AI vegan in order to please randos. You'll always get hate creating/building anything online. The people that enjoy your work won't care if it's AI or not or they'll believe you.

Really curious exactly how you learn things like chess with flash cards. French makes sense as I would guess you just have a word or phrase in both languages.

What do you do for topics like chess?

Ha! Got a good laugh.

Two suggestions:

- Let me enter the time with my keyboard - Make your input numpad match a PC keyboard's numpad, not a phone's

I built playrowbot.com because I wanted a web-based music tracker that lets you jump straight into making music without signing up or configuring a bunch of stuff or buying an expensive device.

I'd love if you checked it out.

New comment by stets in "I let a bunch of strangers control my receipt printer"

stets — Sat, 21 Feb 2026 17:06:46 +0000

A week ago I got a receipt printer on eBay to play around with.

I launched Claude code and had it connect and print something, cool! Then I decided to hook it up to the internet so anyone could send me a message. Someone asked for a camera pointed at it, so I did. Of course that was a bad idea… So I hooked up Claude and made it reject naughty content.

It’s been a week and I’ve added tons of features: a mod panel to play with the queue settings, turn the cutter on and off, ban people, etc.

We even have my laptop playing AI voice reactions to the content that gets printed. The livestream has been going for like 4 days straight now. I added some basic monitoring, develop features that the audience wants, refill the roll.

I’ve made a tiny tiny amount of money from this. Yes I feel bad about “wasting paper” but also it gives people joy.

I’ve lost control of my life, I’ve become printer man.

It was meant to be a direct copy of Drudge and they have a garbage mobile interface haha.

Maybe I will consider optimizing though!

That's good input actually. I should have added details on my usage of Claude Code.

- I think it just came with a cable, USB-C. no plug. - I do have a battery, but I hear most people pull them and just plug in with none. - No, came with USB-C - Haven't checked! Maybe I will
