> Apple uses the ‘IMG_XXXX’ naming convention for all images and videos captured on iOS devices, where XXXX is a unique sequence number. For what it's worth, Apple are just conforming to the JEITA/CIPA DCF standard: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Design_rule_for_Camera_File_sy... “DCF file names” specification sez… http://www.kronometric.org/phot/std/DC-009-2010_E.pdf#page=2... “File names conforming to the following…

It's really cool that such standard exists, the worst thing about Pixel phones is stupid filenames of pictures and videos, not only it's not following this standard, but contains WRONG timestamp. For example, picture with name `PLX_20241101_115855.jpg` was taken at 12:58:55, not 11 as the name suggests, but also picture with name `PLX_20240913_191525.jpg` was taken at 19:15:25. A video on the other hand would have a…

Potentially daylight savings related? E.g. file names are in UTC, whereas local time obviously isn't

Yes, it's DST related. Now explain why DST offset is different for pictures and videos ;)

I understand that these videos were made public, but still this kinda feels like violating people’s privacy. They most likely never intended for us all to watch their personal videos a decade later.

This is what I don't get about historians reading old people's letters to each other. Most of Alexander the Great's letters that are read are fake, but for the ones that are real, did anyone ask for his consent first? What makes anyone think that we should be privy to their inmost thoughts put to stone? Even if he did, is it informed consent if he did so not knowing that billions could one day consume this idly? Peop…

To future historians: once I'm dead for 2+ generations, feel free to consider any information of mine as public domain.

Well they need to be different in _some_ way, right :)? Why not use timestamp offset for this

Ah, this is where this comes from. There has been rumours flying around in Stable Diffusion / Flux circles that you would get much more realistic pictures when you include a photo id like IMG_0416.

I don’t think it comes from these Youtube videos – Flickr and other photo upload services are a more likely source of training images with default file names.

Maybe its a combination of both.

Its not a rumor, you really do and you can try it out yourself. Unfortunately its very finnicky and you cant really leverage it to produce a realistic image of what you want since any further prompting seems to override it. Its like a ghost in the machine prompt.

Makes you wonder if its possible with the right seed, scheduler, and prompt to complete recreate the original.

I’m pretty sure they’re referring to Twitter.

Twitter still exists. Renamed. Same exact thing. You can create an account and post whatever random things you want. Some people might follow you. Some might not. If you see something that makes you sad, you can block the person who posted the sad thing.

It's a walled garden. Unless you are logged into an account it's basically a private network.

"no longer developer friendly" referring to them re-pricing their API to make aggregating data for fun monetarily infeasible.

The website http://astronaut.io/ does a similar thing but for recent videos, and not just from iPhones. From the home page: > These videos come from YouTube. They were uploaded in the last week and have titles like DSC 1234 and IMG 4321. They have almost zero previous views. They are unnamed, unedited, and unseen (by anyone but you). At one point you might be at a school recital in Malaysia, and the next minute you a…

I can imagine that it gets boring really quickly to skim through random untitled YouTube uploads. Maybe back then when YT did have a weak filter and initially waved through the videos there could have been something worth finding. Would be cool to see some statistics on how many videos over the years get removed with each new protection and censorship update. For example the latest medical disinformation campaign not…

>It’s already a thing to have records deleted from the archive which should be the most worse thing when your whole concept is to archive.

IA doesn't delete archives, they merely make them inaccessible. Perhaps that's a distinction without a difference in the near-term, but it means things like copyrighted content will be republished after copyright expires.
