lorincz.me — notes https://lorincz.me/notes Occasional notes from Michael Lorincz — building with AI, the terminal, and side projects. en-us Mon, 01 Jun 2026 12:00:00 GMT An image-to-ASCII tool in an afternoon https://lorincz.me/notes lorincz.me/notes/2026-06-01-asciifier Mon, 01 Jun 2026 12:00:00 GMT I wanted an asciifier I'd actually use — color and grayscale, detailed glyph ramps, copy/PNG/ANSI export — without uploading my images anywhere. So I built one. It runs entirely in the browser. Try it at https://lorincz.me/asciifier Rebuilt lorincz.me as a terminal hub https://lorincz.me/notes lorincz.me/notes/2026-05-31-rebuild Sun, 31 May 2026 12:00:00 GMT This site used to be a six-service Docker/Flask stack that mostly didn't work. I tore it down to static HTML/CSS/JS served straight from nginx — fast, boring, bulletproof — and turned it into a central hub: a real terminal, an asciifier, notes, and a /uses page.
