‘neath the black, the sky looks dead

She’s walking on a ghost ship. Boots treading where the dead recently lay. Darcy’s hands are shaking, not in fear but from too many hours on her feet scrambling between Doctors Foster and Cho.

“I’m awake,” Darcy says to herself, frowning down at the tablet in her hand. She’s walking through the belly of the Ark Three scavenging whatever they can from the wreck of the ship like sea creatures harvesting a whale fall, back when whales swam and the sea teemed with life.

“Ensign Lewis, how much longer?”

Darcy scrunches up her nose, “I’ve found their genetic library and seed vault. I need a few minutes to cross reference their library with ours, Captain Rogers. Huh…that’s weird.” She looks from the Ark One tablet in hand to the Ark Three tablet in its plinth.

“Weird how?” Steve asks, looking over Darcy’s shoulder.

“You know, I was a cryo bay tech and this is below my pay grade. If we were getting paid and not on a spaceship built by a trillionaire headed for a planet that a space probe said looked shiny enough for a colony-“

“Lewis.”

“What I am trying to say in my official, unofficial designation as ship’s librarian/archivist/future experimental archeologist is that half of these species shouldn’t be here. On our ship, S.H.I.E.L.D. and SI sent us with the DNA of livestock animals: chickens, sheep, cows, and pigs, that sort of thing.”

“Right,” Steve nods. “We're a colony ship so it makes sense that we are sent with everything needed to establish a working colony. Like Parker’s vegetable crops keeping us alive.”

“Look,” Darcy says. She shuffled across the room, tablet forgotten as she read aloud, the neat little labels on the drawers, under her breath. “Here.”

“Apis mellifera,” Steve mouths. “You’re gonna have to help me here, I’m military, not science.”

“Honey bees,” Darcy says.

“Bees have been gone…I don’t know, a long time.”

“The Smithsonian had several species of bees in their genetic library. The same library that was supposedly destroyed in that terrorist attack. I’m guessing that a lot of these species were in that library too,” Darcy rocks on her heels, waving her hand at the glowing walls around them.

“You think Stark, the genius, that built the tin can, we are traveling the universe in, stole a library from the Smithsonian Institute?”

“I’m not, not saying it.”

The Captain, Acting Captain, pinches the bridge of his nose. “How much of this do you want to take?”

“All of it,” Darcy replies. She doesn’t need to think about it. Not really. The Ark Three is a crypt orbiting a dwarf exo planet. The only hope is with the Ark One, her crew, and their destination Proxima B.

“I really don’t want to be the one to say there is no room on Ark One.”

“You don’t have to,” Jane says, stepping into the storage library. There’s a smear of grease on her temple, and a tablet held on her open palm. “We’re going to take their cryo bay with us.”

Dr Foster, the Ark’s chief engineer, taps her tablet with a fingertip. A three-dimensional schematic of an Ark unfolds in the air above the screen. “The Ark bays are modular, built in pieces for easy assembly, alteration, and dissembling at Proxima B or wherever the other ships have been sent. We lost our cryo pod bays, but the connections, here and here,” Jane says, pointing out to places on the Ark with a finger. “…are intact, with a little work. One bay on this ship is untouched. I can bridge the gap. We can do this with your permission, Captain.”

“Acting Captain,” Rogers says. He folds his arms across his chest, brows furrowed, blue eyes staring through the Ark diagram. “Do it.”

…..

A little Syfy’s the Ark au. The show has it’s flaws, it’s very cheap at times, very incredibly cheap, and I want to burn the cheap not-a-smart-watch straps they are wearing. But the characters grow on you and it has potential, at least enough to inspire me to write this little scene.

While what I wrote isn’t wholly accurate to the plot of the show, it is how I would write it. If I could write more than a few paragraphs in as many months. Ah, well, it’s fun to play with the headcanon at least. Thanks for reading. I’m sorry I don’t have more to give you.

EA Forex là gì? Những điều nhà đầu tư cần phải lưu ý

EA Forex là một thuật ngữ được sử dụng phổ biến trong lĩnh vực giao dịch ngoại hối, giúp nhà đầu tư và giao dịch viên tiết kiệm thời gian và công sức, bởi vì chúng có khả năng tự động thực hiện các chiến lược giao dịch đã được lập trình trước.

Để biết thêm các thông tin về EA Forex là gì? Nó hoạt động như thế nào? Bạn có thể tham khảo bài viết dưới đây của chúng tôi nhé.

EA Forex là gì?

EA Forex là một từ viết tắt của "Expert Advisor", là một loại phần mềm được thiết kế để tự động hóa quá trình ra lệnh mua bán trên thị trường tài chính. Được tích hợp vào các nền tảng giao dịch, EA sử dụng các thuật toán và quy tắc logic đã được lập trình trước để thực hiện giao dịch mà không cần sự can thiệp của người giao dịch.

Đối với người sử dụng EA, lợi ích chính nằm ở khả năng tự động hóa các chiến lược giao dịch, giúp tiết kiệm thời gian và giảm bớt tác động của yếu t�� tâm lý và cảm xúc trong quá trình ra quyết định giao dịch

EA Forex hoạt động như thế nào?

EA Forex (Expert Advisor) hoạt động như một chương trình máy tính tự động, được thiết kế để thực hiện các quyết định giao dịch trên thị trường ngoại hối mà không cần sự can thiệp của người giao dịch. Bạn có thể hiểu từng bước dưới đây:

Thu thập dữ liệu thị trường: EA sẽ theo dõi và thu thập thông tin từ thị trường, bao gồm giá cả, biểu đồ, và các chỉ số kỹ thuật khác.

Xây dựng chiến lược giao dịch: Người lập trình hoặc người tạo EA sẽ xây dựng một chiến lược giao dịch dựa trên các thuật toán và quy tắc cụ thể. Chiến lược này có thể bao gồm các điều kiện mua/bán, quản lý rủi ro, và các tham số khác.

Lập trình: Chiến lược giao dịch được lập trình thành mã máy tính, tạo thành phần lõi của EA. Mã này sẽ định rõ các hành động cụ thể mà EA sẽ thực hiện dựa trên điều kiện thị trường.

Kết nối với nền tảng giao dịch: EA được tích hợp vào nền tảng giao dịch ngoại hối, chẳng hạn như MetaTrader. Nó có khả năng đọc dữ liệu thị trường và thực hiện các lệnh mua/bán thông qua API (giao diện lập trình ứng dụng).

Thực hiện giao dịch tự động: Khi EA được kích hoạt, nó sẽ theo dõi thị trường và thực hiện các lệnh mua/bán theo chiến lược đã được lập trình. EA có khả năng tự động quản lý lệnh, đặt stop-loss, take-profit và thực hiện các hành động quản lý rủi ro khác.

Kiểm soát và tối ưu hóa: Người sử dụng có thể kiểm soát và tối ưu hóa EA bằng cách thiết lập các tham số, kiểm tra hiệu suất và điều chỉnh chiến lược giao dịch theo thời gian.

Phân loại giao dịch EA Forex

Giao dịch EA Forex tự động

Đặc điểm: Giao dịch EA tự động hoàn toàn không cần sự can thiệp của con người. Mọi quyết định mua/bán đều được thực hiện bởi chương trình máy tính, không cần sự giám sát liên tục từ phía người giao dịch.

Ưu điểm: Loại giao dịch này giúp loại bỏ tác động của tâm lý và c���m xúc trong quyết định giao dịch. Nó cũng có thể thực hiện các lệnh trong thời gian ngắn và theo dõi nhiều thị trường cùng một lúc.

Nhược điểm: EA tự động có thể gặp khó khăn khi thị trường biến động mạnh hoặc trong các điều kiện thị trường không ổn định. Việc lựa chọn và tối ưu hóa chiến lược cũng đòi hỏi sự hiểu biết chuyên sâu về thị trường.

Giao dịch EA Forex bán tự động

Đặc điểm chính: Giao dịch bán tự động là sự kết hợp giữa quyết định tự động và sự can thiệp của con người. EA thực hiện một số chức năng nhất định, nhưng người giao dịch vẫn giữ quyền quyết định cuối cùng và có thể can thiệp vào quá trình giao dịch khi cần thiết.

Ưu điểm: Giao dịch bán tự động mang lại sự linh hoạt, cho phép người giao dịch can thiệp khi cần và điều chỉnh chiến lược dựa trên nhận định cá nhân.

Nhược điểm: Có thể xảy ra tình trạng hiện tượng "quá can thiệp," khi người giao dịch thường xuyên can thiệp vào quyết định giao dịch của EA, ảnh hưởng đến hiệu suất tự động hóa.

Giao dịch EA Forex dành cho nhà đầu tư nào?

Giao dịch EA Forex có thể phù hợp với nhiều nhà đầu tư khác nhau, tùy thuộc vào mục tiêu, kiến thức, và phong cách giao dịch của từng người. Mỗi đối tượng sẽ có những ưu điểm và bất lợi riêng, bạn có thể cân nhắc khi sử dụng công cụ này dưới đây:

Đối với nhà đầu tư có kinh nghiệm:

Ưu điểm: Những người có kinh nghiệm lâu năm trong giao dịch Forex có thể tận dụng EA để tự động hóa chiến lược giao dịch của họ và giảm tác động của yếu tố tâm lý trong quyết định giao dịch.

Nhược điểm: Cần kiến thức vững về thị trường và chiến lược giao dịch để lập trình và tối ưu hóa EA một cách hiệu quả.

Đối với nhà đầu tư mới:

Ưu điểm: Giao dịch EA có thể giúp nhà đầu tư mới tiếp cận thị trường ngoại hối mà không yêu cầu kiến thức sâu rộng. EA tự động thực hiện các quyết định mua/bán, giảm ngưỡng học hỏi ban đầu.

Nhược điểm: Cần sự nắm vững về cách sử dụng và cấu hình EA, cũng như hiểu rõ về rủi ro và quản lý tài khoản giao dịch.

Đánh giá ưu điểm và nhược điểm của EA Forex

Ưu điểm

Tự động hóa giao dịch: Thực hiện các quyết định mua/bán tự động, loại bỏ tác động của yếu tố tâm lý và cảm xúc trong quyết định giao dịch.

Giao dịch 24/5: EA có thể hoạt động liên tục trong suốt thời gian thị trường ngoại hối mở cửa, từ thứ Hai đến thứ Sáu mà không cần sự can thiệp của con người.

Xử lý nhanh: Khả năng xử lý thông tin thị trường nhanh chóng và thực hiện các quyết định mua/bán trong khoảng thời gian ngắn.

Quản lý rủi ro hiệu quả: EA có khả năng thực hiện quản lý rủi ro theo các quy tắc được lập trình trước, bao gồm việc đặt stop-loss, take-profit và kích thước lô.

Nhược điểm

Không linh hoạt khi thị trường có nhiều biến động, EA có thể gặp khó khăn hoặc không thực hiện được chiến lược một cách hiệu quả.

Khả năng bị hack: Do giao dịch EA thường liên quan đến các công nghệ trực tuyến, nó có thể trở thành mục tiêu của hacker hoặc lừa đảo, đặc biệt là khi sử dụng các EA từ nguồn không tin cậy.

Khả năng bị Overfitting: Việc quá tối ưu hóa EA cho dữ liệu lịch sử có thể dẫn đến hiệu suất kém khi áp dụng vào thị trường thực tế, hiện tượng được gọi là "overfitting."

Tổng kết

Việc sử dụng EA cũng đòi hỏi kiến thức chuyên sâu về thị trường và chiến lược giao dịch, cũng như kỹ năng lập trình nếu người sử dụng muốn tùy chỉnh và tạo ra các EA theo ý muốn cá nhân của mình.

What is WebRTC and How Does It Work?

The recent pandemic forced businesses to adopt the remote working model, and while email was the preferred communication channel, the communication wasn’t happening in real-time. This increased the demand for alternative business solutions for ensuring team communication in real-time without lag. So, businesses started looking for VoIP-based business communication solutions that allow conferencing as well as support rich media.

What is WebRTC?

WebRTC (Web Real-Time Communication) is a powerful VoIP technology enabling seamless peer-to-peer communication between web browsers and applications. Application programming interfaces (APIs) written in JavaScript make it easy for software developers to integrate different features using WebRTC. These APIs can be included in the developers’ applications in order to enable peer-to-peer (P2P) communications. There are no compatibility issues between the web and mobile applications, and there is audio, video, and text-based content support.

WebRTC enables real-time data flow within web browsers, so developers don’t need to rely on proprietary interfaces, additional plugins, or specialized software for browser integration. Real-time audio and video communication is as simple as opening a webpage and initiating a call.

Understanding WebRTC

WebRTC is an open-source project initiated by Google in 2011, aiming to provide a standardized framework for real-time communication within web browsers. It is built on a set of JavaScript APIs and protocols that allow direct peer-to-peer communication without requiring any additional plugins or software installations. WebRTC encompasses audio, video, and data channels, making it versatile for various communication needs.

Key Applications using WebRTC technology are:

Google Meet

Facebook Messenger

Discord

Amazon Chime

Houseparty

GoToMeeting

Key Components of WebRTC:

To grasp the inner workings of WebRTC, it is essential to understand its core components:

MediaStream: Media Stream represents the audio and video streams captured from the user’s microphone and camera, facilitating real-time communication.

RTCPeerConnection: This API enables the establishment of direct peer-to-peer connections between browsers. It handles the negotiation and management of media streams and their transport.

RTCDataChannel: Alongside audio and video streams, WebRTC offers a data channel allowing bidirectional arbitrary data transmission between peers.

Key WebRTC Architectures

Most WebRTC apps are based on P2P (peer to peer) architecture. While it is the safest way to enable low-ping high-security multimedia connections, it has certain disadvantages when it comes to handling large peer volume or different media streams. By intelligently using media server to act as a common converging point, developers can choose between (i) Multi-point Conferencing Unit (ii) Selective Forwarding Unit architecture to build WebRTC solutions.

Let’s understand all 3 WebRTC architecture types:

Peer 2 Peer

It adopts the concept of tin-can telephones where each user is interconnected with all the other participants. Any media is automatically passed to all the other recipients. Connections are established when each peers broadcasts their IP address. This is highly practical and commonly sought architecture that is simple and easy to set-up but it can be unstable at high peer volume and use up a lot of bandwidth.

Multi-point Conferencing Unit

The MCU architecture employ a central media server and all the peers connect to it. This enables multi-party communication and integrates various audio and video signals into a single stream. So every peer sends and receives the media directly to and from the other party with the media server in the middle and this allows MCU architecture to support larger number of connected peers. Additionally, MCU transmits standard signals that can be decoded on legacy systems as well without any decoder, making it compatible with most systems. However, this architecture is resource-heavy and it is costly to scale.

Selective Forwarding Unit

The selective forwarding unit architecture also employs a central media server that accepts media from all peers and them forwards to the others. However, SFU inspects the media streams and then decides which streams will be forwarded. It can save bandwidth by transcribing media streams based on the most compatible stream. The only disadvantage is that in every call with (n) peers, each peer has one outgoing stream and (n-1) incoming streams. So as the caller volume increases, the load on the central server in terms of computing power, bandwidth and, eventually, money. However, the resource demand is less than p2p architecture and multiple clone media servers can be used for load sharing.

How does WebRTC work?

WebRTC follows a series of steps to establish a connection between two browsers:

Media Capture: The user grants permission to access their microphone and camera, enabling the capture of media streams.

Signaling: Before establishing a peer-to-peer connection, the browsers need to exchange signaling messages to exchange crucial information, such as network addresses and supported codecs. WebRTC does not standardize this step and requires developers to implement a signaling mechanism.

ICE (Interactive Connectivity Establishment): WebRTC utilizes the ICE framework to establish network connectivity between peers. It employs various techniques like STUN (Session Traversal Utilities for NAT) and TURN (Traversal Using Relays around NAT) to overcome network address translation (NAT) issues.

Peer Connection Establishment: Using the information exchanged through signaling, the browsers create an RTCPeerConnection, enabling direct communication between them.

Media and Data Transmission: Once the peer connection is established, WebRTC facilitates the transmission of media streams (audio and video) and data through the RTCDataChannel.

WebRTC Use Cases:

WebRTC’s versatility and ease of integration have made it widely adopted across diverse applications. Some everyday use cases include:

Video Conferencing: WebRTC powers real-time video conferencing solutions, allowing users to communicate seamlessly without requiring additional software installations.

Live Streaming: Platforms providing live video and audio streaming leverage WebRTC for delivering content directly to browsers.

File Sharing: Webrtc’s data channel enables secure and efficient peer-to-peer file sharing between users.

Gaming: Multiplayer online games benefit from WebRTC’s low latency and high-quality audio/video capabilities.

You can learn more about why your business needs WebRTC development.

Benefits of WebRTC Development

Whether you are a WebRTC developer or an end-user of a WebRTC-based product, it has many benefits over other communications and collaboration platforms.

Free To Use and Ever Evolving

WebRTC is an open-source application programming interface by Google. So, developers don’t need to pay any licensing fee or royalties for developing web apps using WebRTC. Moreover, the WebRTC community is ever-growing, which means the platform improves daily.

Highly Accessible

Applications built using WebRTC can be accessed from anywhere using any compatible web browser. This means companies don’t need to invest in specialized hardware or software to use WebRTC. Simply an internet-connected mobile device can be directly used for placing high-quality audio and video conference calls.

Secure audio & video

WebRTC enforces SRTP protocols for authenticating and encrypting voice and video content. This means the call will have no unwanted intrusions and exceptionally high-quality media transfer. Additionally, STUN (Session Traversal Utilities for NAT) and TURN (Traversal Using Relays around NAT) ensure the call can be placed while overcoming network address translation (NAT) issues.

Interoperability

An upside for WebRTC lies in the interoperability with existing voice and video systems. Whether the end-user has a device using SIP, Jingle, XMPP, etc., there will be no interoperability issues present.

Rapid application development

Contrary to popular belief, developers don’t need extensive knowledge depth for developing WebRTC apps. Standardized APIs can reduce application implementation time and streamline the development process.

No plugins required

Most real-time communication software and apps require a plugin to support calling using a browser. Instead of degrading the user experience by forcing the end-user to install these plugins, most browsers directly support WebRTC-based apps.

Screen sharing

WebRTC video chat apps allow for remote screen sharing with another device or user, provided both have the necessary permissions. Built within the specification are mechanisms for recording user activity, such as screen recording.

Easy to embed

WebRTC allows developers to create any content management interface in HTML5 and JavaScript, allowing WebRTC to be seamlessly integrated into any software project. It also helps the IT department save time and effort by reducing the amount of manual integration work that must be done in-house.

How can different industries benefit from WebRTC development?

Education

Utilizing the power of WebRTC, software development companies can create eLearning platforms that allow tutors and students to collaborate in virtual classrooms. Using video conferencing and media transfer, tutors can share notes, teaching materials and even conduct tests.

Entertainment

WebRTC has benefited online gaming, virtual reality, and augmented reality. However, the entertainment sector is only now beginning to use real-time communication. However, there have been numerous instances where players have been able to communicate with one another while playing a game, proving that technology is being effectively utilized.

Healthcare

WebRTC has been utilized by a number of healthcare providers to increase customer interaction and deliver quick services and care. WebRTC has simplified many things, including booking online health check-ups, having video consultations with doctors, and getting same-day delivery of medications.

eCommerce

Imagine instantly starting a Whatsapp chat with someone by clicking a button on the website you’ve been browsing. Due to its simplicity, WebRTC makes it easier for businesses and customers to communicate directly and effectively. With the use of WebRTC, shopping websites can even incorporate video conferencing or interactive product trials.

Surveillance

You have access to this video surveillance technology using WebRTC, which uses AI algorithms to detect suspicious behavior and support facial recognition. Additionally, it may record films and images for later viewing, alerting you with a photo preview. HD audio and video capture makes two-way chat and head-to-toe video recording possible. WebRTC can be used by surveillance technologies to relay communication in a time and place where privacy is becoming a major concern. Direct phone check-in alerts put your safety in danger.

Video Conferencing

Real-time communication was only possible with the introduction of the internet, thanks to supplemental software like Adobe Flash or plugins. Today, we can easily communicate in real-time using Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Safari, or Opera, thanks to WebRTC. You can also send and receive any kind of media over the internet, thanks to WebRTC. It doesn’t make use of any extra frameworks. However, clients do not need to constantly send and receive messages via a server. As a result, direct communication across browsers speeds up performance and reduces latency. Many other industries can enjoy the benefits of business growth from WebRTC.

Wrapping Up

WebRTC has revolutionized real-time communication on the web, enabling developers to build powerful applications with seamless peer-to-peer connectivity. Its standardized APIs, along with media and data channels, simplify the process of integrating real-time communication capabilities into web applications.

Form 1099: Why Collecting Form W-9 Is Crucial for Businesses to Report 1099?

Form 1099 serves as a crucial tool for businesses to report various types of income and payments made to individuals, independent contractors, and freelancers. To accurately complete Form 1099, businesses need the necessary information from payees, which is obtained through Form W-9. In this blog, we will delve into the importance of collecting Form W-9, when to request it, the significance of backup withholding and B-notices, and explore TaxBandits' W-9 Manager for efficient W-9 and TIN matching management.

What is Form W-9?

IRS Form W-9, officially known as the Request for Taxpayer Identification Number and Certification, is a document that businesses use to collect key information from payees. This includes the Payee's Name, Address, Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN), and the type of entity they represent (individual, corporation, partnership, etc.). The form serves as a vital source for accurate reporting of payments on a 1099 tax form.

When Should Businesses Request Form W-9?

Businesses should request Form W-9 from payees before making any payments or entering into financial transactions that require reporting on Form 1099. It is recommended to request the form as soon as a payee relationship is established to avoid any delays or complications during tax filing season.

Importance of Collecting Form W-9:

Compliance with IRS Regulations:

Collecting Form W-9 ensures compliance with IRS regulations. It helps businesses accurately report payments to the IRS, reducing the risk of penalties and audits.

Backup Withholding:

Form W-9 provides businesses with the payee's TIN, which is essential for backup withholding purposes. If a payee fails to provide a valid TIN or the IRS notifies the business of an incorrect TIN, backup withholding may be required. By collecting Form W-9, businesses can determine whether backup withholding is necessary and ensure proper tax withholding.

B-Notices:

In cases where the IRS sends a B-Notice to the business regarding an incorrect TIN provided by a payee, having a collected and validated Form W-9 can help resolve the issue promptly. It allows the business to establish due diligence and avoid potential penalties.

TaxBandits' W-9 Manager for Efficient W-9 and TIN Matching:

Managing Form W-9 and ensuring accurate TIN matching can be a daunting task for businesses. This is where TaxBandits' W-9 Manager comes into play. With this powerful solution, businesses can securely collect, store, and manage Form W-9 electronically. The W-9 Manager automates the TIN matching process, minimizing errors and reducing the risk of reporting incorrect information on Form 1099. TaxBandits simplifies the entire W-9 management process, saving businesses time and effort.

Conclusion:

Collecting Form W-9 from payees is essential for businesses to accurately report payments on Form 1099. It ensures compliance with IRS regulations, facilitates backup withholding when necessary, and helps resolve any TIN discrepancies promptly. Using efficient tools like TaxBandits' W-9 Manager streamlines the W-9 collection and TIN matching process, enabling businesses to focus on their core operations while ensuring accurate and hassle-free tax reporting. Make collecting IRS W-9 a priority for your business to maintain compliance and simplify your tax reporting responsibilities.

The integration enables them to provide more value to their clientele while also expanding their monetization efforts.

Software providers can also use the developer-friendly 1099 API to request W-9s and then use that data to easily automate 1099 filings.

Ao3 Tips and Tricks

So I thought I would make a post about some cool stuff you can do with Ao3 and userscripts, and some tips I’ve learned from setting them up for myself! I promise it's not hard, though this is a lot of info. I'm happy to help if I can.

What You’ll Need:

First, you will need the Tampermonkey extension for your browser (depending on what browser you use, Greasemonkey is the equivalent). On Android, you can even run Chrome extensions on mobile with Kiwi Browser! It is easiest to configure the scripts on your desktop and then sync to mobile with Tampermonkey’s cloud sync feature or by exporting the configured scripts and importing in your mobile browser (I will explain how to do this later in the post). If you use any of the tweaks I outline below, be sure to backup your scripts in case your settings are lost.

Once you have Tampermonkey installed, you can get scripts from GreasyFork. The inimitable @flamebyrd also has some great scripts and bookmarklets and has been incredibly helpful while I figured all this out.

Find a script that looks interesting, click on it, and then click “install this script.” Pretty straightforward. Once you have it installed, you can go to Tampermonkey to configure it (only necessary for some scripts) by clicking on the Tampermonkey extension icon in your browser (under the three dot menu in Kiwi) and clicking “dashboard”, then clicking the edit icon next to the script you want to configure. When you’re done, click File->Save.

Scripts and instructions under the cut

Some of my favorites:

Flamebyrd’s Incomplete Works script - fades out WIPs on works listings, and displays the work stats (wordcount, chapters, etc) in red on single works to make it more obvious that they’re WIPs as you’re browsing:

Flamebyrd’s Ao3 to Pinboard bookmarklet/script - if you click the bookmarklet while on a work’s page, it opens the Pinboard save screen and prefills the title, tags, description, word count, etc, and adds ?view_full_work=true&view_adult=true to the URL so Pinboard’s archiver will archive the complete work and not the adult content warning screen (note that Pinboard still cannot correctly archive works locked to Ao3 users, so you may want to download them as a backup. I’ve asked him about fixing that.), based on your selections when configuring the bookmarklet on the linked page. If you use the userscript, it adds a button to the works listings page so you don’t even have to open the work to save it:

I tweaked this script so that it only grabs the first pairing tag, since I don’t typically care about secondary pairings and they were clogging up my Pinboard tags. It’s a simple fix (though I know nothing about coding so I had to do some googling and inspect-sourcing; kinda proud of myself tbh):

Just change this part of the script

if ( options.relationship_include ) {

- $(".relationships a.tag", $work).each(function () {

To this

if ( options.relationship_include ) {

- $(".relationships a.tag:first", $work).each(function () {

I also found this cool mobile-optimized Pinboard bookmarklet called Pincushion and combined it with Flamebyrd’s script. Everything works except the auto-tagging, but I’ve reached out on GitHub to see if he can help (according to Flamebyrd, there’s no tag field ID attribute to map to). However, this bookmarklet has tagging autocomplete features that make it easy to tag manually. For example, if you type “steve 21st” it will suggest “steverogersvsthe21stcentury” rather than having to type out “steverogersvs…” in order for it to autocomplete like it does on the regular Pinboard bookmarklet. I actually have two buttons set up (which you can see in the next screenshot) - Flamebyrd's to quickly grab the tags and close without me having to do anything, and then the Pincushion one to quickly edit the tags. If anyone's interested, I can explain how to do that.

To combine Pincushion with Flamebyrd’s script (so it works from the Ao3 works listings page as mentioned above), simply change this part of Flamebyrd’s script:

t = t.split(" ").join( options.space_replacement );

var pb_url = "https://pinboard.in/add?url=" + encodeURIComponent(q) + "&description=" + encodeURIComponent(d) + "&title=" + encodeURIComponent(p) + "&tags=" + encodeURIComponent(t);

void(open(pb_url, "Pinboard", "toolbar=no,width=700,height=350"));

To this

t = t.split(" ").join( options.space_replacement );

var pb_url = "https://rossshannon.github.io/pincushion/?user=YOURUSERNAME&token=YOURAPITOKEN&url=" + encodeURIComponent(q) + "&description=" + encodeURIComponent(d) + "&title=" + encodeURIComponent(p) + "&tags=" + encodeURIComponent(t);

void(open(pb_url, "Pinboard", "toolbar=yes,width=600,height=700,left=50,top=50"));

You’ll need to get your API Token from your Pinboard account and plug it in where it says YOURUSERNAME and YOURAPITOKEN (number part only) above.

FanFictionNavigator - mark fics as Like/Dislike/Mark/InLibrary, highlight with colors based on which option you select, hide/show based on category, like/dislike author and highlight with color. Only you will see how you've marked things.

You can tweak the colors for the highlighting by configuring the script (I find the default colors make the text hard to read because I use the Reversi skin on Ao3 for white-ish text on a gray background). I also changed it so that when I click “hide likes” it only hides liked fics and not liked authors (i.e. hides fics I’ve read, but not unread fics by authors I like), changed the color of the like/dislike/etc links to match the highlighting color and to show up better, and changed the way it highlights authors (I think the default is bold/strikethrough which doesn't really catch my eye. I changed it to highlight the author name in red/green):

Here are my configured scripts if you’d like to use them instead of tweaking yourself (you need to install both):

FanFictionNavigator

FanFictionNavigator - Colors

Note: Your settings for this script will sync via Tampermonkey but not your data (i.e. fics you’ve liked/marked/etc). If you ever switch between browsers, you’ll need to go to your Ao3 Dashboard and click FFNOptions, export your data, then go through the same process to import it into the new browser.

AO3: Kudosed and seen history - highlight or hide works you kudosed/bookmarked/marked as seen. If you want to use this with FanFictionNavigator, you’ll need to turn off “highlight bookmarks” from the settings under the “Seen Works” dropdown that gets added to your Ao3 navbar or FFN’s colors won’t show. Again, data doesn’t sync between browsers but you can copy it from the dropdown settings. However, it pulls your kudosed and bookmarked fics from Ao3 itself, so that will always show. It's just seen/skipped that doesn't sync:

Ao3 download buttons - adds a download button to the works listings page so you don’t have to open the fic to download it. However, it also doesn’t play nicely with FFN’s colors, so I’m using AO3 Review + Last Chapter Shortcut + Kudos-sortable Bookmarks script which also has a download button that works with FFN (a small down arrow next to the author name). The download button doesn’t work as-is from that link, so here’s my tweaked version based off of this comment. You can configure what format you want it to download by default in the script. There’s also a tweak in the comments to fix kudos-sorting, but it overloads Ao3 and you get a “retry later” error for a few minutes when you try to open Ao3, so I don’t recommend it. I don’t know if any of the other functionalities of the script work because I don’t use them, but it looks like there are tweak suggestions in other comments you can try:

I was using Ao3 Replace Words to replace words in fics that bug me but I realized it wasn’t working on mobile, so I’m using zensurf instead which is not Ao3-specific but works basically the same way. If you want to limit it to just Ao3 (so it doesn’t change words on non-fic sites), just add this

// @include http://archiveofourown.org/*

// @include https://archiveofourown.org/*

Above this line

// ==/UserScript==

(function() {

You can // @include other fic sites like ffnet that way too.

AO3: Links to Last Chapter and Entire Works does what it says on the tin, but the creator was kind enough to give me a code snippet to add that makes the “E” (for Entire Work) appear next to all works and add ?view_full_work=true&view_adult=true to the work URL so that I can easily right-click and share to Instapaper and have it be saved correctly (not just the first chapter but the whole work + not the content warning screen for NR/M/E works). Here is the script with this tweak applied:

I think those are the only ones that I’ve done special tweaks for. Here are some others that I find useful that either don’t require any configuration, or should be pretty straightforward to configure and are explained on the script page.

AO3 author+tags quick-search - doesn’t require configuration

Generates quick links from AO3 fics to more by the same author in the same fandom (or character/pairing/any other tag):

Remove leading spaces in AO3 - doesn’t require config

Removes the leading indents for paragraphs in AO3 works.

Ao3 Only Show Primary Pairing - you have to enter the pairings you want in the script, and you can change how early in the sequence they must appear before the work is hidden. Also works with character tags.

Hides works where specified pairing isn't the first listed. Hidden works show a placeholder that you can click to unhide:

AO3: highlight tags - have to enter the tags you want highlighted, as well as the color you want. It matches case so you may have to enter both “Dog” and “dog”, for example.

Configure tags to be highlighted with different colors. This makes a tag more obvious to your eye when browsing. I use it to highlight things I’m wary of in red so I don’t miss them and start reading a fic I might not want.

AO3: Tag Hider - configure how many tags you want to see before it hides them

Hide tags automatically when there are too many tags. Add hide/show tags button to browsing page and reading page.

AO3 Remove Double-Spacing - no config

Removes awkward double spaces between paragraphs on AO3. Doesn’t smush together paragraphs that have a single line break - it leaves those alone.

ao3 series collapser - no config

Collapse works that are later than part 1 of a series. Leaves a placeholder so you can uncollapse if you want to see it.

AO3 Blocker - no config, but you enter what you want to block from the added navbar dropdown in Ao3

Fork of ao3 savior; blocks works based on certain conditions. I find this simpler to use than Ao3 savior.

FYI there are also style scripts for Pinboard on greasyfork and userstyles.org (this site is slow af for some reason, so be patient while it loads). I use show unread bookmarks more clearly and Modern Pinboard Style (basically a dark mode). Neither require config unless you just want to tweak the settings to your liking. To install to Tampermonkey from userstyles, scroll down to “Install style as userscript”.

I also use these extensions in Kiwi:

Ao3rdr - Adds a star rating system (pictured in some of the screenshots above) to Ao3 works that only you can see. This one will sync your data between devices if you use the cloud sync option, which I recommend so you don’t lose your data if something happens to your device or browser.

Dark Reader - not really necessary for Ao3 if you use Reversi skin, but does make all browser pages dark mode if you want it on sites other than Ao3.

Speaking of Ao3 skins, I have another one set up in conjunction with Reversi that shows all the fandoms on a user’s profile, rather than having to click “expand”:

Unfortunately, I can’t remember where I found this. To set it up yourself, go to your Ao3 -> Dashboard -> Skins -> Create Site Skin, fill in the Title (has to be unique), and paste the code below in the CSS box:

#user-fandoms ol.index {

padding-bottom: 0;

text-align: center;

}

#user-fandoms ol.index li {

display: inline;

margin-right: .5em;

line-height: 2.15em;

}

#user-fandoms ol#fandom_full_list {

padding-top: 0;

padding-bottom: 1.5em;

display: block !important;

}

#user-fandoms p.actions {

display: none;

}

Then hit Submit -> Use. There are ways to hide or highlight various elements (ships, characters, blurbs, work stats, etc) on a works listing page using skins on Ao3. This is getting long so I’m not going to go into that, but I’m happy to help if you want to try it. It’s very easy.

Once you have everything configured on Tampermonkey on your desktop, you can migrate it to your mobile device in one of two ways:

Option 1: Go to Tampermonkey settings and change Config Mode to Advanced

Go down to Script Sync and select your preferred cloud service and save

It will ask you to log in to said cloud service

Install Tampermonkey in Kiwi and do the same thing

Wait for it to sync (this can be slow)

It should sync any changes you make moving forward, but again, it’s slow

Option 2: go to Utilities and check all 3 checkboxes under general (include script storage, include Tampermonkey settings, include external script resources)

Either export to your preferred cloud service or

Export as a zip file, move it to your mobile device, go to this same screen and import

I would recommend exporting as a zip for a backup even if you don’t use it to migrate your scripts

You can unzip and upload individual script files (.js) on this page if you ever need to reinstall a single script with your settings instead of all of them

Let me know if you run into any issues and I can try to help! The script writers are also super nice and helpful if you reach out to them. Yay fandom!

- shenanigans!

- huh, they saved/kidnapper a marine cook (a mere boy). And they didn’t even tried!

- Zoro has no business standing all cool in the background (but he Does look good in black, I really like his outfit after Alabasta)

- the kid wants to make good curry and find All Blue? Well, Sanji, don’t just stand there, help the child

- yeah!

- Sanji really is helping him with that curry. I am soft

- off they go

- AND? Was the curry good?

- IT WAS!!

- oh hey, Robin’s ending

- normal day on Going Merry :)

- ahahaha

- I love their shock of “Luffy can read???” variety :D

- …

- …Luffy CAN read, right? I assume an obvious yes, but I don’t remember any proof of that right now and now that I know of his upbringing…

- there’s an island and a Firework Festival in town! It’s Usopp’s time to shine!

- Sanji was almost smooth right now, it’s genuinely funny

- learn from the best Usopp!

- …oh. May your parents make fireworks in heaven, little girl

- so we’re firing the big one. Ok

- “You think we have only one dream?” I’m touched

- AND it stopped raining

- FIREWORKS!!!

- and Usopp fired the big one too! What a finale

- last episode, with Zoro!

- …did he get lost and walked into a western

- oh, it’s a story of how he met Yosaku and Johnny!!

- r.i.p. to Yosaku’s hair

- Zoro as an Actual pirate hunter? Sign me up!

- he had a reputation even then :D but no money still

- so cool :D

- huh. Johnny, that’s a great goal

- damn it, Johnny and Yosaku are cool on their own

- oh, so it was Zoro napping

- and that’s how the three of them met

- …

- IT WAS AWESOME
