For a while, I have been making bots for the popular VoIP, instant messaging and digital distribution platform Discord.

Most of the bots have been relatively simple, however, over the last couple of days I have worked on making a Music Bot that joins a voice channel and plays the audio from a specified YouTube video. It also has functionality for queues, skipping and stopping the audio.

More information about my bots can be found here https://samsdiscordbots.co/

Working with my friend over at TWIISTED STUDIOS I have created a website to pull random things from the website Thingiverse.

You can view the website here: https://thingiverserandomizer.com/


This was partly inspired by the scourge that is the random and newest pages that are provided by the site. They are full of Customized things however with this randomizer you can filter them out, for the most part.

Today I decided to make my own simple 2 Factor Authentication system using the IFTTT webhooks system to send a code to my phone, in future I wish to modify this to use my own notification system but this is the first version so I made it easier for myself by using another library for the time being.

Quick Code Breakdown
The code for this is rather simple for now, PHP generates a random number and saves it in a session.
After the code is saved to the session we then send it to the IFTTT webhook which sends the code to my phone where we input the received code onto the page and another script checks the code against the saved one, if they match then we allow the user into the site, if not we redirect back to the login page.

A quick side note: This system does not impliment any actual username/password login system it is just the 2 factor part
