On the flight from Kanto back to Guangzhou. I originally hoped to snap Mount Fuji 🗻, but visibility was too low—luckily I caught this breathtaking sunset instead~
Interesting Tools
Canton Cartoon
https://ymvid.com/
Finally a website compiling Cantonese-dubbed anime! It’d be even better if cloud drive direct links were added~
OpenClaw Exposure
https://openclaw.allegro.earth
The viral “Lobster” (OpenClaw) from Q1 2026. This site tracks hosts exposed due to OpenClaw~
Address Generator
https://duoguodizhi.com
Overseas services often require a billing address. I used to just pick a random hotel address on Google Maps; this site makes the whole process so much easier~
Email Variations
https://emailvariations.com
When registering for services you inevitably have to enter an email. This tool generates email aliases/variations so you can easily detect which sender is leaking your address or sending spam~
Sleepal
https://preheat.sleepal.ai
A sleep-monitoring desk lamp. YouTube reviews look promising—it uses millimeter wave / microwave signals to track body movements while sleeping to analyze sleep quality and heart rate. Sounds pretty neat; thinking about buying one to try out.
Learning
Is it time to upgrade your proxy?

Before:
- router: passwall
- server: xray
- ios: shadowrocket
- mac: clashx.meta
After:
- router: dae
- server: singbox + mihomo
- ios: quantumultX + shadowrocket + stash
- android: Flclash
- mac: clashx.meta
Years without maintenance plus the AI buff means technology iterates at breakneck speed.
Took advantage of the upgrade process to understand the pros and cons of each tool—whatever fits your workflow best is what matters most.
Also investigated a bunch of related tech concepts: IPv6 SLAAC, DH3, QUIC, Reality, anyTLS.
- Currently still sticking with Reality + DoH.
- DH3 is blazingly fast, but UDP keeps getting throttled. It ran reliably for a few months, but in the past month DH3 traffic was throttled hard, so I reverted to DoH.
- Many providers are testing anyTLS now, but current compatibility is fairly average.
Sharing some config setups:

A C++ learning journey, well-written and structured. I’d love to dive into it when I find time~
Because AI surpasses average humans in both breadth and depth of knowledge, people are becoming less inclined to spend time studying fundamentals. I’m honestly not sure yet whether this trend is good or bad~
