CCleaner charges $29.95 a year.
Avast Cleanup charges $39.99 a year.

Both were caught doing shady things to the users paying them.

Someone built the open-source version that beats both for $0.

It's called Kudu.

It replaces a dozen paid cleaning apps with one free suite. Clear out gigabytes of junk files. Scan for malware with multiple engines. Harden 30+ privacy settings that Windows leaves wide open by default. Update all your installed apps in one click so you never miss a security patch.

It even has a treemap that shows you where every gigabyte on your drive actually went, so you stop guessing what to delete.

The thing paid cleaners will never do: it's fully open source. You can audit every scan and verify every delete yourself. No hidden data collection. No ads bundled in.

Works on Windows, macOS, and Linux. In 30 languages.

MIT License. 100% Opensource.

Pope Francis considered "Babette's Feast" (1987) to be "One of the best movies he had ever seen" & it was one of his top 3 movies of all time. About the film, he said,

"The story takes place in a very strict Calvinist community in Denmark. The protagonists, two sisters, daughters of a Protestant pastor, had each fallen in love but rejected this feeling because it was wrongly considered contrary to the very strict morals they had inherited. They lived a life of renunciation, not only in love but in everything, including food and clothing. A kind of continuous self-flagellation.

The French cook Babette, a ‘foreigner’ in this context, after winning a rich lottery prize, decides to cook a sublime meal for the whole community, and by this gesture she manages to make everyone feel and see human beauty. She manages to make them perceive this divine pleasure that has been wrongly suppressed for too long.

Choosing one’s own food is one of those choices. It is a powerful mechanism for change: it means rewarding one productive and economic model rather than another."

P.S: On this day, 39 years ago, Gabriel Axel's "Babette's Feast" (1987) was released in Denmark.

Palantir sells governments a war room that costs millions a year.

So, a guy named Elie just rebuilt it, put it on GitHub, and gave it away.

It's called World Monitor.

Open it and you get a live 3D globe with 500+ news feeds pouring in across 15 categories, all summarized by AI as they land.

> Military movements.
> Economic shocks.
> Natural disasters.
> Cyber incidents.
> Flight paths.
> Shipping lanes.

+ 56 different map layers you can stack on top of each other.

It scores 31 countries on a stress index and updates the number as things happen.

It watches 29 stock exchanges, commodities, and crypto in one panel.

It runs local AI through Ollama, so you can use the whole thing without a single API key.

Native desktop app for Windows, macOS, and Linux. 25 languages. Works out of the box after one clone.

[How I Write Clips @PerellClips]

Just write the bad sentence.

Pixar's Andrew Stanton on why it's more important to do the work, even if it sucks, than to talk about the great work you'll make (and never do it):

"There's a term for it: whistling on the steps of Carnegie Hall. Most people spend more time telling you the symphony they're going to write than the symphony is written.

Finish the sentence. I don't care if it doesn't have an ending, or a middle. Just freaking write the sentence. It's gonna be bad. You don't get to the nice sentence until you've written the bad sentence. Writing is rewriting."

"It's chipping away at the marble. Every time you decide not to, you're not practicing. So you're just going to be that much less practiced."
