@lucian Sent you a few bucks, check your Paypal. You should have received it...
Yes, thank you! They will go to the cloud hosting bill.
@lucian So Lucian, what's the plan for the future of Subreply and Dubfi (not using the latter...)? They are very similar. Do you plan to keep both? Any new features on the map for Subreply (images, donation option, etc)? Sublevel was pretty nice imho...
I follow people's wishes, @burensasub wanted replies on Dub-Fi so Subreply happened. :) About new features, 3 emojis for status? Maybe. Edit? Sure thing. But this is it. I like the domain. I like the focus on replies. I like the code behind it. I can maintain it.
@fastidious I meant... Your iMac (not MBP)...
I understood you. :-)

"Because hand washing is so 2020, the Apple Watch gets automatic hand washing detection with watchOS 7. Once it detects you're doing it, it will initiate a 20-second timer, and if you finish early you'll be prompted to keep going. The Apple Watch can also remind you to wash your hands once you arrive home. What's more, the Health app will start tracking your hand washing too - both frequency and duration." - Because you are dumb. Apple 2020.
Not a new tech but, still, really impressive. Meet the Mill Blackbird : youtube.com/watch?...
@lucian Hey Lucian! One global pandemic later... All good?
It's not over, so keep safe? They say 2020 will be the longest year in the history books.
Nice view of the old port Saint-Tropez lighthouse. That was last year, October 3rd 2018.

Two interesting threads on lobste.rs, listing app recommendations for iOS and Android... lobste.rs/s/gbpzqy... lobste.rs/s/8xtyxo...

@lucian - Saw a video of the Lightyear One concept solar assisted electric car. I'm very skeptical. They say the car has around two-third the capacity of the Model S battery pack while covering the same base autonomy of around 400+ km... Hum, OK. Then they say to double that with the solar panels on top. A Tesla uses around 200 W per Km. Equals 80 KW per 400 Km. A 1 square meter solar panel produces around 1 KW per sunny day (average ideal). Considering 5 square meters on top
Acceleration is slower, top speed is slower, slimmer wheels than a Tesla and probably the numbers are just on paper now. But I rather have a car that charges itself than a car that discharge itself when not used.
A little dose of photorealism is good for your health. For more information, speak to your physician here : youtube.com/watch?... youtube.com/watch?...
Found this nice demo review, made with Unity, pretty photorealistic ! youtube.com/watch?...
I wish Hollywood would create new movies that would use the latest tech in graphics like ray tracing. I miss movies like Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within.
Enjoy ! david.li/fluid
May be interesting to try : "Programmer Ivan Kutskir of the Czech Republic has created an online-based Photoshop clone called Photopea. The web app was created solely by Kutskir in his free time during college, according to a Reddit AMA the developer held on Wednesday. Photopea features a Photoshop-like interface and is supported by advertisements." dpreview.com/news/...
