Sorry ⁦@Gizmodo⁩ but that’s a stupid headline. ALL cameras support vertical video. You ready for this? Rotate. Your. Hand.

yeah that one confused me... is the new feature that it sets the orientation in the metadata so that it imports into editors in the right orientation? or do existing cameras already do that? I don't shoot vertical video... 🤷‍♂️

Rewatching TNG, they violate the prime directive so often that not even Patrick Stewart’s Acting can convince me that it’s a big deal. I also got a lot better at spotting obvious plot holes, and wow are there a lot of them. Still the best Trek I’ve watched though.

yeah, voyager did a better job of making reasonable excuses for violating the prime directive imo, given that they were nowhere near federation space

Is this a good or bad practice?

@aaronpk I contacted a bank about opening an account and they sent me a PDF form for my personal information and asked me to return it via email. I told them that that request was specifically the reason I chose not to open an account with them.

...wow 😮

Changed my “following” page today to make it more useful for the average person. Now, when you tap/click on one of my subscription links, you get a rich preview of the feed. https://cleverdevil.io/following

That is pretty cool!

Tbh your reference server was easy enough to follow for me to implement my own “serverless” solution, and it’s been running for the last two years with no issues at about $0.90 a month

That's awesome! Is it open source? I'd happily link to it in the Overland readme so people know they have another option!

Overland by @aaronpk is the best tbh. You own all the data https://overland.p3k.app/

I've never added any automatic trip detection like Moves had though. They really were the best at that.

Thanks! I've been collecting my location data since 2008, and since 2013 using Overland! The good part is you own the data, the bad part is it means you have to run a server to collect it somewhere.

I mean, why should I care about this specific plane's refit progress? I also like the Virgin Airlines material design though.

as someone who flies @AlaskaAir a lot, it's always disorienting to step into the old Virgin planes, so I do appreciate the notice that they'll be updated soon!

Pretty sure @aaronpk will be both happy at the removal of the proprietary hub requirement and mystified at the EOL for HomeKit support. https://www.theregister.co.uk/2019/06/28/philips_hue_hub_bluetooth/

Oh no, I actually really like their hub! It hosts an HTTP API on it with no account crap, so you can control everything from the local network.

I recommend the TV series "Mayday" (alias "Air Crash Investigation"). It's not only interesting but also surprisingly accurate.

This sounds like a great thing to watch on the plane 😂

Hm, I kind of wonder what this functionality is used for if most of the people read the text in their reader which I would guess would not show that?

Just for fun 😆 Or maybe eventually we add support in readers!

Oh I'm sorry, the user details are in the same response as the access token, the access token itself does not contain anything

oh did you actually get the user's name and email address?

Nothing, currently, but the access token contains the user details.

contains? The access tokens I was seeing were super short strings. I didn't see any user details in them at all.

Another question: did you manage to exchange the authorization code provided by the Apple Sign In framework on iOS for a token using the REST API? I'm getting "invalid_grant".

Yes I did, but I have no idea what the access token can be used for.
