If I visit Youtube without being logged in, all I see is junk. Why would a regular user of YouTube ever want to reset their watch history?
Some people don't like living in a personalized bubble.
This reminds me of something I've been thinking a lot about. which i think is big techs greatest failure: interoperability I first thought of this when seeing someone take a picture of their computer screen. There is just so much friction in moving data. I should be able to take anything off any screen and move the source material to any other screen on any device or cloud with a simple 1-click process. Including the…
I usually joke that the hardest problem in computer science that is not yet solved is sending a file between two devices.
From my notes. Maybe it's useful to someone. Not comprehensive as there are other brands and other iterations I'm sure. Many dpreview.com sample galleries show original filenames. Some forums list filenames, youtube descriptions can list model names, pdf manuals and manufacturer websites sometimes list the names. There isn't really a good list of these that I know of. ○ Apple - IMG_0001 ○ BlackMagic Design - A001 * C…
Pro-level (1D) Canons let you set the three prefix letters.

There are thousands of bluecheck AI bots that just copy-paste/regurgitate or just make up stupid content and post it continuously to get engagement views and money. It is really worse than before.
Why are you following them?
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…
IIRC, the DSC_XXXXXX naming scheme is from Samsung smartphones. (Or maybe just Android in general?)

This site has the cookie permissions dialog which has "reject all", but I think this rejects only the "opt-in" cookies. The "legitimate interest" cookies, which are equally comprehensive but are on a different tab, are not rejected by this, and to reject them you have to turn each one of them off by hand, scrolling down a massive list. If you select "reject all", the dialog instantly closes, I think with the legitima…
Do you think that websites really don't track you if you switch all the toggles?
If the consent form itself is like that, then you already have no trust in the site, let alone asking the question of whether or not a non-duplicitous consent form could or could not be trusted.
This reminds me the trick to make recent text-to-image model generate highly realistic (but amateur) photos by adding "IMG_XXXX" into the prompt. Although these videos have nearly zero views on YouTube, they may be part of the training data behind these models.

British? Sounds like it's recording UTC time in the file name, which is only correct during winter.
2024-11-01 is in winter, 2024-09-13 is in summer. So the effect seems to be the opposite of what you say.
Not in... What's in the same time xone, but southern hemisphere; Sawth Effrika?

> GoPro GX010001.mp4 What annoys me is that when a video is split into multiple files (because of sd card limitations etc), it increases the first number, giving you files that sort really weird. So I film GX010001.mp4, then after 8 minutes it starts a new file GX020001.mp4, GX030001.mp4 etc., and then later that day when I make a new clip, it has GX010002.mp4. This breaks sorting by filename. Can sort by creationdat…
