Some devices have unintentionally demonstrated how the infrared sensing used in night vision goggles and thermal cameras can reveal the unseen, like the OnePlus 8 Pro’s “Photochrom” color filter that worked like X-ray vision on the thin shell of an Apple TV. When used on people, infrared photography can reveal the lines of a person’s body or the undergarments they’re wearing beneath a thin layer of clothing, such as those worn by athletes.

In 2020, athletes complained to the Japanese Olympic Committee after discovering infrared camera “photos of themselves shared on social media with sexually explicit captions,” according to The Japan Times. Since then, Mizuno, Sumitomo Metal Mining, and Kyodo Printing have co-developed the new fabric that’s stretchable enough to be used in athletic uniforms while also protecting athletes.

Kinda sounds like they’re doing it because people are fucking creeps who don’t mind brushing up against the boundary of involuntary pornography

Same thing happened to Sears/Kmart

I think there are people out there who would sign up for just about any subscription you offered them purely out of FOMO.

I’m pretty sure there was one in my city when I was a kid, but we’re talking 30 years ago 🤷‍♂️

Oh no, I’m not falling for that again!

Where the fuck can you still find a Fuddruckers?!

That’s not a bad idea. There’s actually a Unitarian church about two miles from my house. Last time I drove by there was a MAGA across the street shouting into a bullhorn, so that should at least make it interesting.

I’ve had this same question a hundred times. Seems like a lot of people find a sense of community in church, but I’m non-religious and I haven’t found a replacement.

Wasn’t there something you could do with those and the VMU?

I mean, saying “yes” to some of their ideas will kill them a lot

Aren’t we all?

I use rechargeable AAs and AAAs in all of my remotes, controllers, mice, etc, and the kids’ toys are so chaotic that I wouldn’t put anything in them I wasn’t willing to lose, so the batteriser has literally no value to me. I’m sure I’m not the only one.

I used to work at Sears, and I could never figure out how a company that found its initial success in a catalog business didn’t immediately see the opportunities the internet presented. Now Sears is all but gone, and Bezos gets to go to space with Shatner :(

Well, g2g

Kaiser, CA

Now if I could just get my characters from the live server days back…

Marketplace only works on Windows, and we’ve gotten him a couple of the packs for like Jurassic World, Sonic, etc

I just built a new PC for our family room, and I had planned on making it Linux only…until I found out my son wouldn’t be able to play the full version of Minecraft without a convoluted workaround.

Yes, dues. If the employees voted to form a union and pay the dues associated with that union, that’s their choice. I’ve never heard of an employer paying to support a labor union.

If the union won’t make things better for your employees, then it won’t make anything worse for you, either.

Wonder if any of the protesters voted for Milei 🤔
