Isn't that how Macklemore pronounces it in "and we danced"?

For emergency it's probably way simpler to just make a small hole with your hand (like the diver "OK" sign but tighter) and look through that.

A pinhole camera doesn't focus light. Only lenses can focus light. The reason why looking through a small hole makes the image sharper is exactly because that basically prevents the lens in your eye to "misdirect" light that's coming in from the side.

But there is a reason why our eyes are not pin hole cameras. The amount of light that hits your retina is pretty low when looking through a pin-hole so that actually only works on bright sunny days.

Have they announced a price yet?

[–] wischi@programming.dev 3 points 8 months ago

Wow didn't now that. I'm surprised I never heard of it, but I will definitely give it a try.

Is it reliable? Ad-blocking is a cat and mouse game and to actually have a useable ad-blocker it needs to be well maintained over a long period of time (for example like ublock origin).

Their concept looks nice, but they are researchers and I'm a bit afraid that they just drop that, write a paper about it and that's it. If there is no constant maintenance this will likely stop blocking YouTube Ads once Google deploys the next changes.

Update: checked the repo and it's actually a fork of ublock origin, so it should (for now) be pretty similar, but still they would have to keep maintaining that.

So you need an armed working class for what exactly? To watch Trump dismantle your democracy? You probably don't need guns if you are just watching anyway 🤣

Müsste korrekt "der Kapitalismus" lauten.

To be fair that's actually really hard once you are dead.

Wealthiest country on earth

🤣 It's like putting one leg in boiling hot water, the other one in liquid nitrogen and calling it room temperature.

The US is a third world country with some very rich people.

the entire bottom half of humanity

So about 4 billion people

Naja Gott schuf EM, dann hat sie beim Octopus die guten Augen eingebaut und für uns blieb nur noch zweite Wahl und sogar die wurden verkehrt herum eingebaut dass die ganzen Kabel erst mal glatt durch die Netzhaut durch müssen.

... Intelligent Design? Also zumindest beim Menschen mal sicher nicht 🤣
