El tema de la IA y el apocalipsis: mucha gente cree que los medios compramos una campaña de marketing de las empresas de IA que, por algún motivo, ganarían dinero con el miedo. Me gustaría aclarar algo: si algo temo, como periodista, es no estar haciendo lo suficiente. Me explico:

Years in the making, I finally have a working prototype of my Camera GBD-M2 (previously shared as Game Boy Camera M2).

A sequel to the Game Boy Camera M1, this new redesign uses original Game Boy Pocket & Game Boy Camera chips into a camera-like shape roughly the same size as the Ricoh GR III.

I will never understand iCloud eviction logic, and I wonder if any product manager ever thought about.

My iPad stores 11 GB of Photos, but evicts all my 10 MB of Books all the time. Today I created a file in Downloads, and then went to open it from another app 30s later, and it had been evicted?!?!

¿Sabéis lo que decimos muchos sobre el fútbol y el patio del colegio?
Pues de mayores ese modelo se mantiene. El futbol está por encima de todo. Sus seguidores pueden beber alcohol en la calle, su liga bloquear internet y se les hacen leyes a modo como la ley Beckham.
Pero somos unos exagerados.

In the 2010s, the Icelandic tv station Channel 2 accidentally added subtitles from a gritty crime drama to an episode of Teletubbies.

Every year or so we forget how rotten this company is, your reminder that they remain a rotten company:
We got Meta’s “general global playbook” for defeating advertiser verification regulations, which the company knows would reduce scams. It includes making scam ads “not findable” for regulators searching Meta’s ad library through targeted scrubbing.

As regulators pressure Meta to verify the identity of advertisers on Facebook and Instagram, the social media giant has drafted a “playbook” to stall them. A Reuters investigation examines its tactics...

Have been tagged in to provide the reminder about traumatic video because of the Charlie Kirk shooting video going around!

1. Settings -> Content & Media, turn off "autoplay video"
2. Keep your device sound off while browsing so an accidental activation won't include the sound

Did you know your MacBook has a sensor that knows the exact angle of the screen hinge?

It’s not exposed as a public API, but I figured out a way to read it and make it sound like an old wooden door.

WeTransfer just changed their TOS giving themselves permission to train AI on any content you transfer and produce derivative works based on content you transfer that they are allowed to monetize and you are not allowed payment for.

Stop using WeTransfer.

Meta illegaly downloaded 80+ terabytes of books from LibGen, Anna's Archive, and Z-library to train their AI models.

In 2010, Aaron Swartz downloaded only 70 GBs of articles from JSTOR (0.0875% of Meta). Faced $1 million in fine and 35 years in jail. Took his own life in 2013.

It's a tool for making fake video game screenshots, just fill in new text and it'll give you a (generally) pixel-accurate image back, the correct fonts and everything.
