so far I have:

• changed my password
• reset my two-factor-auth
• deleted and re-added this account in Gmail
• tried every combination of TLS and port number

I can send email via SMTP from a small script, I just can't get Gmail to send via SMTP between accounts.

Depends on your definition of social media: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_media#History

According to that, none of us were even alive at the origins of social media.

hey maybe listen to the guy who was literally there building it from the beginning?

oddly the audio download link links to a URL that redirects to archive.org which then says it’s not found

Phone calls too plz. When I get a call now, no less than five devices around me light up and make noises.

I’m about 75% of the way to having a permanent recording setup in place, it’s already saved me time even tho it’s not perfect.

I still struggle with how scripted the dialogue should be. The less scripted the more editing. The more scripted, the worse the final result.

TELL ME MORE

also what voodoo do you use that allows you to start filming a video the night before it’ll be released?? you must really have your post-production workflow down!

I tend to spend 3x more time editing than filming.

me after voting, seeing 100% “Be Responsible” response: WOW EVERYBODY AGREES

me, 2 seconds later: oh wait, I’m the only one who voted so far

btw thanks for this, it turned out to be an extremely useful purchase! I can’t even count the number of times this SD card adapter has been useful to me!

I've seen a similar problem outputting from HDMI devices into certain monitors. Turns out HDMI has two different color modes, RGB and YUV, and some devices only support one or the other. If the camera has a setting for that, it might fix it, but I'm betting it does not.

I’ve definitely had to “content-aware fill” some photos because of that 🤦‍♂️

I've been making videos about how to use different kinds of cameras and streaming gear. It's a nice break from the tech world even if there's still some tech aspect to it.

Define tech? Cause I've been enjoying getting into the camera gear YouTube world lately which is completely different from software development tech

‪Yeah I'm leaning that direction too. Even tho the iPhone camera is pretty good, a camera with a bigger sensor (RX100 or G7X) is still so much better. If I'm gonna post a picture I care about the quality, I'll use a real camera. The iPhone is good for random photos of my cat.‬

I wasn't thrilled about FaceID when it launched, but the other features of the XS were worth it since I was upgrading from the 6S.

I miss Aperture so much! It took me a while but I decided to go all in on Aperture. A few months later they dropped it. 😣

Yessss node red is great

Seems like there might be suddenly a market for a USB camera with a nice lens.

There are however high end webcams that are used in offices, but they tend to be $2k or more which is not exactly a home user price point.
