Loop a video
I'm often working at home with some music playing in the background from another, near by, PC - don't wanna play my music on work hardware. I've also found it nice (or oddly comforting?) to have some sort of ambient screensaver playing...also keeps the machine from locking so win-win (yes, I realize there are applications that can do this to...which I also use, e.g. caffeine and caffeine indicator on Ubuntu). I've recommended screensaver.best before but that appears to be offline :(. I've recently stumbled across looptube.io which allows one to paste a link to a YouTube video and endlessly loop it. There are a few controls (aside from those available via the embedded YouTube player) that allow for modifying the duration and point of video looped (e.g. loop only minute 1 to minute 3) and the playback speed (up to 2x...as of writing this). It has been a really cool tool to create background visuals.
