Appears to be some kind of Leica M, so could easily could be over $10k of kit.

Still feels weird without Ken Block.

For me, it’s really two things. The first, the app is a bloated mess. Between videos, podcasts, and just tons of promotions, it’s become a chore to just open up the app and start playing music. Secondly, it’s just been getting expensive honestly. Annual price increases are crazy to me when the service is getting worse. Their lossless roleout was also a let down between delays and lower quality than competing services.

FWIW removing that wire is a pretty easy photoshop edit nowadays.

This is basically the plot to Alien Earth.

Who asked for this? So much for user led design.

There are privacy preserving biometrics, as well as ways to determine age without breaching privacy or requiring identity, but you’re right none of the big platforms are using those methods.

Crypto gambling, ftfy :)

Not making a judgement call on “orb” (which I assume is using some privacy preserving biometrics but honestly not sure), but why not leverage mobile devices? It seems like a lot of extra steps to use dedicated hardware for something like this.

Worth noting (and mentioned several paragraphs in to the article) he is running for mayor in the democratic primary.

Usually cameras have a sweet spot ISO that gets maximum dynamic range, the fujis have a dynamic range boost setting to further complicate this but I do think the maximum natural dynamic range for the fujis is around 200-400 ISO.

Curious what the European Union guidance says.

Needs to fit in Handmaids Tale here somewhere too.

Music on this video really enhances the drama.

Cadillac Desert should be required reading for anyone involved with California water.
