The focus isn’t really an issue since at that distance everything is approximately at infinity (think taking a photo of two distant mountains; even if one is further than the other they’ll both be in focus).

As for tracking, it probably took some math to figure out where to point, but actually tracking shouldn’t be an issue. Hubble was moving much slower than the Earth relative to the satellite (hence the blurry background) so the tracking speed should be well within its capability.

Still a really impressive photo though!

They’re based in Canada, and given their privacy-focused approach I can’t imagine they’d implement such a feature.

Wouldn’t this just be unenforceable for any Linux distros not directly owned/maintained by a US-based corporation? I don’t really see how they could force a distro to comply, unless they start going after individual maintainers who live in the US.

This is definitely AI, but AI is such a vaguely defined term that it’s basically meaningless. Too many people these days mistake it for meaning “a computer that can think like a human” even though it encompasses everything from LLMs to chess playing algorithms to something like Minecraft zombie pathfinding.

That would make sense.

I don’t use Play Services and still get push notifications from Signal, so they’re clearly using an alternative implementation.

Even as a joke, sending a real advertisement to people is completely unacceptable and deserves an immediate permanent ban. If they had created an ad for something fictional I’d be a little less annoyed about it but it still seems like a bad idea.

It’s a sure sign of a healthy non-bubble economy when a random Substack post can cause a stock market crash.

The copyright doesn’t apply to the event of Vance being booed itself, it applies to that specific video recording of it. Sure the video creator is a dick for getting it taken down, but they’re within their legal rights to.

It was never a free feature; they used to only allow up to 2X speed. Not that that justifies it at all of course.

Most people aren’t choosing to enable OneDrive; it’s enabled by default, and not obvious how to disable.
