Meant to cast to / display on a second screen. I used to use Twitter to keep up with the news. I would check it sporadically during the day. I don't do that now because there's no telling what's going to end up in front of my eyes. So I made VibesMasto News Monitor (named after Vibesmaster G-Nice, who has a morning reggae program on Twitch ( https://www.twitch.tv/vibesmastergnice ) and to whom I'm listening right now) to keep me informed without making me having to check in on Twitter or CNN or anywhere else. I designed it as a full-page screen that I cast to a second montior that's on the end of my desk. Every morning I double-check the hashtags the program is monitoring, change them if necessary, and start the program. For the rest of the day I occasionally glance at it, and if anything looks interesting I can follow up by following a link. I've just completely overhauled the code to make the settings easier to access and change. (There's also a Web-based version of VibesMasto at https://mastogizmos.com/vm.html if you don't want to download anything.) Download the index.html file, open it in your browser, and it should be self-explanatory. Use the gear settings icon on the lower right to change the settings.)","default_branch":null,"files":null,"tree":[],"storefront":"/r/ResearchBuzz","claimed":false,"request_supported":{"post":"https://gitbuyer.com/r/ResearchBuzz/VibesMasto-News-Monitor/request-supported","requests":0},"note":"indexed from public GitHub; nothing is for sale on this page.
