I’m sure those cops are still on the job and only got a slap on the wrist though.

… To compete in Ultimate frisbee in Australia for 2 weeks

Every photocopy machine I’ve come across that accept USB sticks do not support exFAT, so what I would do with my USB stick is to split it into two partitions, one FAT32 and the rest exFAT.

Fair. I guess I never really needed to deal with that since I upload in original. That and Google Photos Takeout Helper made migrating easy for me.

Not entirely disagreeing with you but, what exactly is “malicious” about separating photo and metadata? It could be just how their servers process and stores those photos, with the added benefit of geotagging videos.

I use Google Photos and upload in original quality. When I download from takeout, the metadata is still in the original files. Iirc, only if you select upload in “high quality” where they compress it again, do you lose the metadata in the file stored in the cloud.

I don’t know if this helps you, but in computer science there’s a dataset called CelebA containing huge amounts of celebrity face photos, original and cropped with some basic attributes annotations, that is used to train various deep learning models.

From the article:

Let’s first start by getting the facts out of the way — erasing objects won’t be perfect. In this comparison, we aren’t using the more advanced AI editing tools (Magic Editor for Google phones and Generative Edit for Samsung phones), just the basic object erasers. These tools work best on smaller objects rather than people right next to you or larger objects.

Yeah, to be fair, the naming isn’t great and I can see why people get confused by it. Magic Edit is not Magic Eraser. Magic Edit uses GenAI and gives you multiple options to choose from, while Magic Eraser is not based on GenAI and will only give you the result and no options to choose from.

The “fuck you I got mine” mindset. Sigh

Nebula works for now because it still has nowhere near the amount of videos being served and uploaded per minute than YouTube. Having to cache videos in servers all around the globe takes up significant cost too.

They are releasing full episodes onto YouTube. I can see past full episodes of S11 whenever, and they say they plan to upload past seasons as well (announcement video). Maybe it’s a regional restrictions thing that is preventing you to see full episodes.

Me with raspberry pis. Also complain when digital notice boards don’t use low power systems like the pi and use windows PCs instead when all they do is show picture slideshows.

You’re right, I misread the question and thought it was the 1700s. That changes it quite a bit 😂.

The medieval period to me would be like in Game of Thrones or DnD settings, where automation tech was still hydraulic based at best, and medical knowledge was still very very limited.

1700s had steam engines and electricity, and apparently lithography was invented in the 1790s, so that’s a big difference.

Sure lol. I harness the power of the sun and lightning to make special stones that other people can command it to make it work for them.
Basically creating a golem haha.

I’d love a medieval version of this question lol.

Fortnine is a channel whose videos I would watch instantly. You don’t need to own a bike to appreciate the quality of the videos Ryan and his team produces.

I’m fully aware of other options like the ROG Ally, I’m just talking specifically about the Steam Deck :)

If you run SteamOS I don’t think you can, can you? But other than that, yeah I get the point.

I don’t know if Steam counts as an “open” ecosystem though. You still kinda need to be online to play Steam games, and you can only launch said game with Steam. DRM free option would be GOG games, which doesn’t require online and the GOG launcher to play games afaik.
