• View post

  Going to try and participate in #inktober this year. It’s been a long time since I’ve drawn anything. Step 1: Where’s my iPad? Step 2: Charge the iPad Step 3: Pencil is not working Step 4: Unpair and repair, then charge pencil Step 5: What OS is this running? Probably should update. This might be the entirety of my day 1 “Apple” contribution.

  Dear iOS, Sync the dang photos. Just do it. For the love of Pete, you drive me crazy with this nonsense. It doesn't matter what my battery level is, sync is always paused! (Is this fixed in iOS 26 or 27?)

  Accidental leak, vibe-coded oversight, or deliberate guerrilla marketing campaign? Who knows. But it looks like #SlateAuto's barebones EV pickup truck price may have gotten revealed a week early, at $24,950. https://www.theautopian.com/the-slate-truck-will-cost-24950/

  #SlateAuto has said since the beginning that they'll be a DIY-friendly & right-to-repair-supporting car company, supplying how-to videos and CAD files for all kinds of customizations. The first tutorial on their "Slate U" site has gone up: how to replace the front signal covers. Simple procedure, but the step-by-step instructions and the quality of the video walkthrough make me excited for the what's coming. Pre-orders open tomorrow morning! https://ww...

  Waiting for the USGS tracker to update to see if that really was an earthquake we just felt.

  @cmdrmoto@hachyderm.io They're going to set up a system where, instead of printing ghost guns, people will be printing ghost printers.

  Thought it would be interesting to have AI create some whimsical #woodworking furniture designs, and then think about how they could be built in real life. Things quickly went off the rails... #Midjourney

  One of the things I would miss here on Mastodon was all of the alerts from my local infrastructure and government twitter accounts. These will likely take a very long time to make the migration. With https://bird.makeup, you can create bot accounts that put those tweets in your Mastodon timeline. For instance, I follow the Washington State Patrol account for regional weather related road closures and accident reports: @wspd7pio@bird.makeup EDIT: I Should have tagged the project's cre...

  RE: https://mastodon.social/@CuratedHackerNews/116075409175792396 “Gaussian splatting” sounds like a fake techy term from a Star Trek script. “Captain, we appear to be trapped in a field of Gaussian splats emitted from that nebula.” But its a real thing, and super cool. Check out the honeybee splat, it’s interactive & you can drag it around with your finger.

  A really interesting project to raise awareness about the impacts datacenters are having on a threatened region. A group of Chileans accepted prompts that would normally go to a chatbot, and provided human generated responses instead. Artwork, recipes, etc. created by people sharing their “analog intelligence.” Theres a short promo video here: https://www.quili.ai/

  Here's my favorite screwdriver. The laser-etched tips on these Weras are really nice, and the handles are comfy too. The etching grabs onto screws with friction alone, they're not magnetized. #Tools

  I have some mixed feelings about Taylor Sheridan's shows, but you can't deny his cinematographers know how to shoot landscapes. One pattern I think I've noticed is that they seem to always frame sunrises to the left, and sunsets to the right. At least they've all been that way since I've started watching for it. Is that a known thing in filmmaking? Conceptually it makes sense (left/beginning, right/end) and helps the viewer subliminally understand what th...
