Wouldn't people just take the stickers off? Is this to just enforce intent around photos in the club??


I frequent a night-club that doesn't allow photography, but doesn't put stickers. People (esp. non-regulars) will occasionally take a photo because they forgot and it's such a normal thing they do in their lives. Removing a sticker requires significant more intentionality.


I'm guessing security would see you filming and come for a chat. Probably other patrons too, if that's the culture of the venue.


It was in the article. You get one warning and then you will be thrown out.


It’s more of a physical/psychological reminder, not an actually secure and invasive attempt to prevent access.

Taking it off gets you asked to leave when you’re seen holding up a phone.


If you're not against supporting Apple, their laptops always seem to have the most longevity. I am still running my M1 with 8G of RAM and it out performs the latest "top of the line" Windows laptops my work are handing out.

Prior to this one I had a MacBook Pro for about 7 years and before that one the black plastic MacBooks from 2007.

So three laptops for the better part of 20 years.


My first generation M1 Macbook Pro has been a great workhorse as well. It is still chugging along. The backlight on the keyboard is a distant memory. One of the two USB-C ports decided to retire its data bus. It also made a high voltage arc and rebooted earlier today for the first time ever. I was very pleasantly surprised when I found out the speakers were spared any damage during this process.

It came back online right away as if nothing happened and has outstanding battery life that's still making the M1 Max envious.


We use multiple M1 airs as dev machines and they're all still working perfectly fine and very fast, nothing has broken, on top of that they were all bought used. We're not looking to replace them any time soon. Not an Apple fanatic personally (don't own a single iProduct), but the M series of laptops is extremely well built and performant. I expect them to last at least 6 years from time of purchase.


You can already see this in action - I love when my iPhone brings up those little curated albums from events or people. I can only imagine how much better those will become with more and more photos and better intelligence.


Here's what grandpa and your uncle did 60 years today!


I don’t know if you’re joking or being serious but I think that would be really cool.


I would absolutely love this!


Agree it is crazy, I am writing this from my M1 Air with 8GB of RAM and I am yet to ever have a real issue with a RAM limitation... the OS does an amazing job juggling RAM.


Twitter enables this through not checking the account in a URL... a simple fix would be to actually respect the Twitter URL components, if the account doesnt match the linked tweet, don't redirect...

Right now you can spoof (just as far as the URL displayed in an anchor tag) the account to be whatever you like:

Example:

https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1745190441539293271

This will redirect you to the following, but as content within a tweet, it will look like a legit post from Elon. Crypto-scams are using this in every single post.

I am in this position and just gave up on trying to resolve... :(


I have been lazy and use iCloud as my only backup for photos and videos for a while now... whats the correct way to backup to another drive from iCloud?

Is there a script I can run, or do I need to just do an export from Photos.app to a backup target or something?


My dad introduced me to Visual Basic when I was 13 and it honestly changed the trajectory of my life. Prior to this I wasn't overly interested in learning anything in particular. VB became a creative outlet and since that day I never stopped learning.

Loved hitting up PlanetSourceCode to get scripts and reverse engineer other peoples code to learn.

I built so many fun programs - the best of which was a chat programs using UDP so we could chat over the schools local network.


Similar here :-) But what would you introduce your kids today? It seems the learning curve is much steeper.


Well, at 13 I did build some weird CLI based text adventures in c++, mostly imperative style and badly written. I knew only how to declare a variable, how to cout/cin, loops and conditions, due to the fact that access to information was almost impossible (we had something like a subscription plan with a limited 20 hours of internet, and finding websites that I could understand about developing in C++ was hard).

I remember the feeling I had the day I learned about classes and functions, a true "wow" moment.

Unfortunately those text adventures died with the hard drive of the computer my parents had.


Yeah I often think about this too... everything today feels so complex, although VB was probably just as complex under the hood. The complexity was just masked by the GUI and WYSIWYG interface.


I would think the rush of blood to your head and eyes plays part in this phenomenon (if it really is a thing...)


This is AMAZING, my 3 year old draws the cutest pictures and I can animate them!

One thing with the browser version, it all works fine up until the animation and then its flipping my image upside down? Could this just be the photo metadata rotation/orientation??


It’s not metadata, you would see that when you upload the photo at the beginning.

I’m guessing that the nose key point is located below the shoulders in your child’s drawing?

That’s a known issue caused by how we ‘apply’ poses onto the characters. It’s fixed in the GitHub code but not in the browser version. Try moving the nose keypoint to the top of the characters head and that should resolve it


Ahh yeah that is it, haha thanks :D cant wait to show her


Imagine future job market, where a 5 year old will already be super familiar with the T-posing, which currently mostly CG artists now about
