@StefanEJones @chu A transparent wall in a bus shelter could do it, but I’m leaning on the entire image being AI-generated as a way of making fun of slop. 😉

Hivemind to the rescue!
I've got two NOIP1SN0300A (aka Python 300) sensor from OnSemi and they both have this fixed noise pattern in the image. It's not in the test pattern, so I suspect something in the analog config.
The full description of the registers is only available with an NDA, but I found a driver on GitHub that has the initialization sequences (albeit without much explanation.)
Does anyone have more information on that sensor or maybe even access to the documentation?
Are we nearly at forcefields? I imagine it might be quite nice to sit atop a double decker bus and instead of glass it's just forcefields. Open to the elements but protected from wayward branches or the intersecting flightpath of an errant pigeon. Would wind go through a forcefield? Sorry to get so deep on the Internet.
@TheBreadmonkey no, sorry
Ukraine's spirit is the founding spirit of Europe.
In the days leading up to its 35th Independence Day, we stand resolutely with Ukraine.
Today and for as long as it takes.
@EUCommission - "Just so long we aren't actually expected to do anything of substance."
'Thoughts and prayers' don't stop mass killings in the US. Same goes for Ukraine.
@dajelinux certo, ogni tanto serve anche un pò di leggerezza se no diventa un calvario.
@ro io magari leggo parecchio e magari le letture mi influenzano , ma un pizzico di consapevolezza diffusa in più forse aiuterebbe. Proprio perché stiamo andando maluccio (delicata espressione)
da genitrice posso dire che più che un pensiero è un incubo. A costo di meritarmi gli sberleffi di amici e parenti, cerco di organizzare i fondamentali. Ho un pozzo in giardino, sto facendo analizzare l'acqua e cercando soluzioni per raccogliere la piovana. Ho un piccolo orto, allevo impollinatori e insetti utili. Ho i pannelli. Riutilizzo, autoproduco tutto ciò che posso e insegno a mia figlia a farlo.
Sono modi per me per sedare un po' l'ansia.

@mttaggart @ipsquiggle we have moved into a world where it's not clear your coworkers know or understand a single thing they are doing
Quick update.
Account migration on pixelfed.social is disabled. I hit bugs in the flow and chose to pull it rather than let people run into them.
It’s temporary, and account portability is not something I take lightly.
Meanwhile I’m setting loops aside to give pixelfed the year it deserves: new mobile app, new web ui, improved federation, and a much faster backend.
Thanks for the patience. It’s one person over here, and I’d rather be slow than sloppy.
@dansup It's been ages that it is taken lightly.

I haven't touched LLMs since I went on PTO 2 weeks ago. This is a luxury not all knowledge workers can afford, but if you can, I strongly encourage it—especially if you use them daily to do things you used to do yourself. Try to do those things again. See if you're faster than the machine¸ or if it feels better. You might be surprised.

So you think you have solved your age verification problem with zero-knowledge proofs... https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2026/08/zkps-arent-age-verification-silver-bullets
@evacide I'm a bit sad that the article doesn't really explain any details and just skirt over "ZKPs bad", there's no explanation why ZKPs proof calculation would decrease privacy, there's no explanation about why the CA authorities would learn about a proof being emitted. No real demonstration about the centralization effect of using ZKPs.

being in STS is good prep for all sorts of gaslighting, as it happens. sigh
and then you get wild statements like that doofus Tristan Harris saying authoritatively that "no one opposed the bicycle when it was invented"
