@prologic@twtxt.net What I meant, is that I will not say that someone is not really a writer, if they choose to have what they wrote, ran through some spelling and sentence structure checker, like the one included in MS Word, the average phone keyboard, or on reverso.net - given that they look over the output and make sure the corrections make sense.

Similarly, I won’t complain much, if someone uses AI, to remove backgrounds from images, where the AI can preform this task, as well as a human would and makes sure to check it afterwards, or use ai as a way to sort large quantities of images - usually done for science. An example of this, would be having terabytes of plant photos, from some cities camera system and having an AI analyse them, in an attempt to detect notable changes, like mold, parasites, or the plants needing more water.

I have another one on my keychain and a small one in the car. And this little guy is probably hard to spot in the photo, because he’s just 1cm tall:

How Edit Photos Dark Mode on iPhone & iPad

And on a similar note, cross-post from Mastodon:

What I love about HTML and HTTP is that it can degrade rather gracefully on old browsers.

My website isn’t spectacular but I don’t think it looks horrible, either. And it’s still usable just fine all the way down to WfW 3.11:

• Some blog post in various browsers
  
• Git repo viewer (stagit)
  
• Older photos of WfW 3.11
  

It’s not perfect, but it’s usable. And that makes me happy. Almost 30 years of compatibilty.

The biggest sacrifice is probably that I don’t enforce TLS and that HTTP 1.0 has no Host: header, so no vhosts (or rather, everything must come from the default vhost). (Yes, some old browsers send Host:, even though they predate HTTP 1.1. Netscape does, but not IBM WebExplorer, for example.)

(On the other hand, it might completely suck on modern mobile devices. Dunno, I barely use those. 🤪)

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com oh fuck yea snac would be a good use of that! makes me wanna do the same… GTS also has a new profile view for profiles that shows only images which makes it great as a photo posting place

How to Change Photos Thumbnail Sizes on iPhone & iPad

@bender@twtxt.net Totally agree with you 100%. No photo could ever replace the experience of seeing it live on site!

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org now, that’s what I am talking about! Having been witness of similar sunsets, I would wholeheartedly agree that a photo (no matter how good!) is a poor replacement for not being able to spectate it in person.

@bender@twtxt.net Just like you, I change the wallpaper on my PC more often! However, @prologic@twtxt.net’s “Lake View” photo is perfect for my laptop, where I spend quite a bit of time.

@ionores@twtxt.net that ought to be some photo! I change mine at least once a month or so. It keeps me entertained.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I still have a photo taken by @prologic@twtxt.net as wallpaper on my laptop (Linux)! 😀
