I just remembered that the activitystreams example actor object contains an array for the type property, compatible with approximately 0.000001% of fediverse software.

"type": ["Person", "vcard:Individual"],

Apple hired Larry David to do a sketch for WWDC 2014.

Apple execs had a panic attack when they saw the final sketch and buried it.

It leaked online in 2021. Apple removed it from every single leak and video website. Here it is again:

It’s an interesting social phenomenon of time-capsuled kid bedrooms in their parental homes.

Upscaler 1.2.0 is available on Flathub 🎉 - Upscaler is an app that allows you to upscale and enhance images, be it 2D or 3D.

We've put a lot of effort to improve stability and compliance with the GNOME interface guidelines. We've also made the following changes/additions:

• New icon
• Add drag & drop support
• New keyboard shortcuts
• Add labels for assistive technologies
• Improve support for high contrast
• Port to newer widgets
• Ellipsize text when file names are too long
• Add WebP support
• Transpose image (useful for photos taken by smartphones)
• New translations
• Add Vulkan checker

I also want to congratulate @gregorni and Matteo for being maintainers and helping out the project :)

Upscaler is available on Flathub: https://flathub.org/apps/io.gitlab.theevilskeleton.Upscaler

The source code is available on GNOME GitLab: https://gitlab.gnome.org/World/Upscaler/

External Attachment: Screenshot of the welcome page. The page shows Upscaler's logo, followed by text that mentions that the user can drag and drop images as well. Below the text, there is a pill button to open an image from the file picker.

External Attachment: Screenshot of the upscale page. It showcases Hatsune Miku (a 2D character) as the preview, followed by the image properties: image size and expected size after it upscales. Below, "Cartoon/Anime" is selected as the type of image, and the location the user wants to save the image.

External Attachment: Screenshot of the drag and drop page. I drag a picture of Hatsune Miku into the Upscaler window, in which it reacts and mentions to drop the image to open.

I think #Rust has done a lot of damage to the old “it doesn’t matter what programming language you use” line.

Sure, it still isn’t the most important or impactful choice a software team has to make. But it does matter. People can tell when something is 100x faster and doesn’t crash all the time.

GNU social converts all images to webp. Honk converts all webp to jpeg.

Prepare yourselves for the singularity.

Microsoft rewrote Azure Quantum Development Kit (QDK) in Rust, now it is 100x faster, 100x smaller, and it runs in the browser!
