Took a quick look at some posts there and this stood out: https://discuss.pixls.us/t/extreme-highlight-recovery-in-dar... In my opinion, the Lightroom edit in the OP is the best. M…

Swift is absolutely an afterthought on non-Apple platforms. Apple doesn't even provide ARM slices for the official Swift Docker images ( https://hub.docker.com/_/swift?tab=tags ) w…

The jump from 3840x2160 to 5120x2880 is nearly 2x, in pixel count. That is not just a 'tweak existing technology' kind of jump. TCON's that can handle a single logical 4K display a…

No. Under Time Dilation, everyone on the node is affected equally. This gives you more reaction time, but your opponent gets the same benefit. Edit: I see what you were saying now.…

While yes, the full color image I posted was re-compiled from the original red, green, and blue channel images sent from the rover by a non-NASA source, even NASA's B&W images look…

False dichotomies are fun and all, but let's be honest. Does it really either have to "die a hero" or "become the villain"? The whole point is that Twitter has become the villain, …

App.net is not Twitter. It's an infrastructure, upon which new social services can bloom. It's AWS.

While yes, the original pictures from the low res camera look bad, the new raw pictures from the higher-resolution cameras aren't really that much better. Better than the images fr…
