It's been [0] days since I spent significant time tracking down a non-existent bug because I forgot to switch the console back to "Previews”, again 😓

@yanlu I love it, so fun! Is this using SwiftUI's SpriteView or something else?

If you want to transfer maps to an older Garmin GPSmap from a Mac in 2025 it's still possible (and easy). I spent quite a while going in loops with outdated blog posts etc so I'm going to commit my findings here for both you and future me:

- Garmin MapInstall is the key (not Basecamp). Currently found here https://www8.garmin.com/support/download_details.jsp?id=3825 and works with latest MacOS and Apple Silicon

- GPSFileDepot has free maps in the correct format (.gmapi): https://www.gpsfiledepot.com/

- Open the .gmapi file(s) which should launch into Garmin MapManager to let you install them,

- Then launch MapInstall with the device attached via USB, which will let you select map tiles and transfer them directly to the device.

(Using a GPSmap 60Cx in this case)

@Migueldeicaza this reference is lit!

@garcinot 😂😅 I need help with the bad words list for other languages!

With everything going on, I feel like I should mention that I'm building an app that you can yell swear words into. 🤬!! (also I'd love your feedback) https://apps.apple.com/us/app/bleep-app/id1673609376

@louie it’s so good!

⭐️ Hi, friends. It's been a while since I've shared any #new snacks or cereals — but don't worry, I haven't stopped noticing them. Here's a bumper blog post with all the new products I found in 2024!!

I hope you enjoy looking at all of this weird stuff as much as I do! (You don't, but.)

@lapcatsoftware macOS 18.3 ... ? Even Apple can't keep the coordinated releases straight haha.

Recently did the IPS LCD mod to this Game Boy Pocket (which looks and works amazing btw) and now I want to display it powered on all the time – so modeled a stand that integrates the DC power cable. I love how it turned out. #gameboycamera #gameboy #3dprinting

@simonbs Love it haha 🎄

Please humor this slight detour from programming content. I've had the idea for this video for a while and finally had a chance to make it. Trying to exercise making creative content a little more often. #DIY #farming #shorts

I started wondering if I could align the left and right images of a 3d photo automatically. I don't know the first thing about how that’s done but fortunately I ran across the `VNTranslationalImageRegistrationRequest` part of Apple's Vision Framework which lets you provide two images and tries to return an alignment transform.

The trick with 3d photos is that the alignment is different depending on what you want the 'subject' to be.

I'd really like to be able to click the photo and have it align right there under the cursor.

@kalleboo Hey great! I picked up that same FinePix earlier this year and I've been having a ton of fun with it. Funny to use a 14 year old point and shoot as my main camera, but I love it.

I also have the Lumix DMC-3D1 but besides being more compact it seems all-around worse than the Fuji.

I'll keep working on my app, hopefully you can try it out when it's ready!

One of the more important aspects of processing 3d photos is getting the alignment of the two separate images right. Kind of like setting the focal point of the photo in post.

Most 3d cameras put some metadata in the file to help but I’ve found it to be inconsistent so I end up doing it manually.

I've built a couple UIs for this over the years that use sliders to manually align the images.

I've been working on a Mac app for managing Spatial photos and video. More specifically, converting other formats to Spatial – finally my years-long collection of Nintendo 3DS photos can join my main Photos library in full 3D glory!

I'm tentatively calling it Stereotastic, as an evolution to an old 3DS photos website. I think I'll start sharing interesting mac/swift/spatial things in the process.
