The Nintendo 3DS has two cameras on the back, so you can turn its 3D photos into wigglegrams. I made a web app that does this automatically, it has a few demos where you can mess with offset or timing: https://wiggle3ds.moonlemon

Wow, this completely crashes Firefox for me. Don't think I've ever seen that before. Super cool though! Works fine on Chromium. I liked Pass the Ball, and it was really fun contorting to avoid the red balls in Ball Dash -- if you&

This is a longshot, but -- I have a lychee tree that's fruiting right now, with more fruits than I know what to do with, and I'm about to go on a road trip from Florida to the midwest in a week or so. I could drop off a bucket alo

One's perspective on this discussion really hinges on the question you raise: if an animal has a 'better' life in captivity by various metrics -- lifespan, access to food, safety from predators, etc. -- is it morally right to

I dunno, it kinda freaks me out. For thousands of years we've been selectively breeding another species to love us unconditionally, and be so subservient to the point of dependence. Imagine if we found out some alien species has their

That's a good idea, but remember that, up until CLU's outright betrayal, Kevin had no reason to be concerned, and after it, he had no way back into meat space to run those commands. Also -- unrelated, but a nitpick of the article

On that last point, GNOME/Gtk/Adwaita apps generally function really well on small screen sizes. The design language naturally suits it, and in my experience most apps will even make some layout adjustments where they're need

I think the use of "progress" in the quote is somewhat ironic -- "movement towards a perceived refined [...] state", as the definition puts it; an unreasonable person's perception of progress likely doesn't m

I run into https://www.hcaptcha.com/ and https://friendlycaptcha.com/ from time to time as a user without complaint. Can't speak to the latter but I've used the former a bit and it does the job.

Nintendo's core audience has always been children, their parents, and casual players, but with some console cycles they expand into other niches, as has (resoundingly) been the case with the Switch; the Switch appealed to virtually any

Tangled is pretty cool. I'm not particularly into atproto, and I think the connection kind of distracts from the reality of what it is and can do. You can host your git repo on their servers, or your own. You can host issues/pull

It's okay -- usable but definitely a downgrade from Cursor. Basic pattern matching completion works pretty well, but you won't be zipping around the codebase in the same way as with Cursor, which always seems to be thinking a few

That does seem to be what the page is implying at first glance; though the images clearly show features not visible in the raw photos, so it can't be the case. I'm guessing that paragraph is actually referring to the 'overhea

Nitpick: the photos are labeled as "Colorized images of the surface of Venus taken by a Soviet Venera lander in 1981", but 1. those photos are from Venera 13 and 14, which were taken in color 2. the photos were taken in 1982 (thou

Man, same here, those early days of Cursor were mindblowing; but since then autocomplete has stagnated, and even the new Cursor version is veering agentic like everything else. I hope if/when diffusion models get a little more traction

We didn't find evidence of life on the asteroid; rather, we found the necessary building blocks for it, which, in the right environment (e.g. earth), could become life. If anything it slightly moves the scales toward abiogenesis, since
