21. Heavens Above
Astronomer here! You can look up all the satellites flying over your house tonight, including the ISS, Hubble Space Telescope, those pesky Starlink satellites, and whatever else your heart desires, complete with star maps and precise timing. The website is called Heavens Above and there is an Android app, but unfortunately no iOS one last I checked. (For iOS I use “Sputnik!” which is free and tells me the ISS and Hubble passes overhead.)
It should be noted btw that many if not most of these objects are visible even in a city if on a good pass right above you. So out and see some cool stuff! :)
22. Top Class Actions
Top Class Actions basically a site that lists active class action lawsuits you might qualify for. I’ve used it for trivial things like suing red bull for a free case because it “didn’t give me wings” but on a serious note. It made me aware of the suit against Equifax for leaking my data. That should be a settlement worth over a $100. It’s a cool way to hold corporations semi accountable, and score some money/freebies for any wrongdoing that went under the radar.
23. Free File
If you’re in the USA and you earn less than a certain amount of money — currently $69,000 — you can use the same software to file your taxes for free.
The system is called Free File, and companies that sell you tax software are trying very hard to make it difficult to find. Don’t let them.
24. Melody Ml
I recently found this melody.ml.
Use it. I swear.
U can isolate vocals, drums, bass from mp3. Files You’ll need an email address to download the isolated files
25. Blender
Just started using Blender, an open-source video editor, and animation tool. Good for making YouTube videos.
26. Flightradar24
It allows you to see plane traffic live
27. Codecademy
Codecademy is an awesome site to learn how to use some programming languages. Doesn’t get into the really advanced stuff, but it’s good for a start.
28. Thenounproject
Thenounproject has a wide selection of icons. I use them for presentations!
29. Nexus Mods
Nexus mods has thousands of video game mods, made by independent content creators, available to download at no cost.
I recently downloaded a bunch of mods for a new Fallout 3 playthrough from nexus! The game still crashes every 15 minutes but damn it’s still soo good.
30. The Anki Flashcard
The anki flashcard app for laptops is really dope for committing things to long-term memory and is free
