In their own words
FaceCheck.ID
FaceCheck.ID is an investigative search engine that accepts a face photo and returns links to public webpages containing the same or similar-looking people. Its stated uses include finding social profiles and appearances in blogs, videos, news, mugshot sites, and sex-offender websites. The service says its AI detects faces, measures similarity, and searches large data collections. Results receive scores from 0 to 100, grouped by colors from weak matches at 50–69 through certain matches at 90–100. Red flags may identify news, scam-reporting, mugshot, registry, most-wanted, or detected AI-generated-face sources. Access is provided through the web, a REST API, and a Chrome extension; examples cover Python, C#, Node.js, TypeScript, Java, C++, Kotlin, and Rust. Search images are not added to the database, history is deleted within 24 hours, and IP addresses and HTTP access are not logged. The service warns similarity is not identity determination and bans credit, employment, insurance, and tenant-screening decisions.
GSE
GSE is a free emulator for Game Boy, Game Boy Color and Game Boy Advance, intended primarily for speedrunners. It uses Gambatte for the first two systems and Mesen’s GBA core for Advance. The emulator runs at approximately 59.7275 FPS and uses clock synchronization for consistent frame pacing and low input lag. An optional Low Latency Mode can further lower input lag, though frame pacing may become less consistent. GSE records input logs for each run as a secondary source for verification and provides 100 savestate slots in ten groups. It supports compressed ROMs in 7z, rar, tar, gz and zip formats, and controller support through SDL3 includes GameCube USB Adapter and Switch controllers. Discord Rich Presence is available but off by default. Bootrom or BIOS files are required. GSE runs on Windows, macOS, Linux and Android, subject to minimum operating-system and library requirements. Cheat-code support and other features not useful for speedrunning are omitted. The project is distributed under the Mozilla Public License 2.0.
