@nobtaka @louie won’t we be able to generate realistic octopus now or maybe the cartoon is easy to apply ML to?

As a major stream person in @overcastfm I’m actually an advocate for the download method. My commute has a cell outage a few minutes in for 15 minutes. There were many occasions wherein streaming lost my progress and/or locked up in poor service. Request! Please prioritize download by playlist. I took a lot of time to create and prior use podcasts I never miss into a Must Listen. @atpfm for example. It feels duplicitous to tap each podcast one at a time telling it to download automatically. Congratulations and nice work! 🙏

@overcastfm syncing took quite a while but I didn’t mind once launched everything looks great!

@shoptalkshow I’m not following the metaphor/analogy? Edit: I found the part of the episode.

@mark I’ve never considered or attempted to use ChatGPT for images. This is why.

@nikitonsky @againsthimself oh that’s brilliant. Seems to work if content is offscreen?

This is everything you really need to know about the Trump attack today. edit: an hour later a link to BBC replaced the X link. bbc.com/news/videos/c51yly4085 h/t @bobkmertz

@louie companies had librarians and rolling shelves of data. They were fallible.

@claytoncubitt I read the screenshot first and said to myself, “you found a taxi.”

@ttscoff I have one that I clean thoroughly and place in a go bag with the fellows filter.

@louie they aren’t aware of that nuance.

@mgs What? Are. Those. Glasses.

@hotdogsladies I can’t with your brain sometimes.

OK, interesting: iOS 18 beta 3 seems to be doing an intelligent auto-dark tint on some third party app icons. It’s reliably triggered by being a clearly delineated shape on a white background. Other icons just get a slight ‘darkening’ effect applied.

BUT! check out that Facebook icon invert. Some kind of computational icon design happening here. Wild.
