I got my Pixel tablet today and just got it set up. It's a nice piece of hardware absolutely let down by the not great state of android apps on tablets. I really like the dock tho. Honestly I'm not super concerned about the apps because I don't use tablets for much. The only reason I got this one is because the Google store offered me more money than I paid for my old base model iPad as a trade-in. I mostly just use it for D&D.

@micah the biggest thing for me is that it’s always charged, plus it makes a pretty good little media consumption screen (read: Bluey) for the kids in the afternoon. :) I do use it quite a bit for Google Meet and YouTube as well, but I just don’t really use a tablet that much in general.

Did you get the killer accidental deal for trading in the 6th-gen iPad? Katie has one collecting dust, and we just missed it; apparently they corrected the trade-in values today.

I need to get a new smartphone since my Pixel 4a ran out of support already. 😞

I narrowed down my options to three devices that fit my requirements.

The Pixel 8a seems to be cheaper and even better compared to the 8.

I won't use games or any of the AI stuff nor Google cloud services. Therefore, I guess that Tensor 4 of the Pixel 9 won't provide much benefit to me.

Unfortunately, the 9 design looks great to me. 🤔

What do you recommend? 🤷 (and why?)

@publicvoit my understanding is it's the same camera as the 7a. But to be fair, I think these days a modern camera phone is going to be pretty similar.

@D22 They all provide the same amount of years starting from their launch.

Do you know someone who has a desk like this?

Ich bin immer wieder begeistert, welchen Brennweitenbereich heutige Smartphones abdecken. Hier 11mm Ultraweit bis 112mm Tele.

terveer,

@cybso ja, als Pro. Das Pixel 6 Pro hat ähnlich gut performt, konnte aber keine Makros und damit auch nicht so gut Dokumente einscannen.

@terveer
Also Makro vermisse ich am 6pro schon, aber nicht für Dokumente scannen. Das geht hervorragend. Mit Abstand um 30 bis 50cm kein Problem. Ich nutze dazu die CamScanner App, die noch die Verzerrung entfernt und den Kontrast verbessert. Aber die Kamera ist da ok.

Najlepszy do zdjęć w cenie 1500pln, (+/- 300pln) to będzie pixel 7a? Następnie Samsung A54?
Chodzi o zdjęcie wyciągnij i zrób, dla osoby mało ogarniającej technologie i ustawienia. (Fajnie jak będzie długie wsparcie) Ma po prostu robić swoje.
Czekam na propozycje 😀
Dzięki za podbicie i wyrażenie opini jak ktoś będzie chciał.

@Skrzydlaty mamie kupiłem jakiś czas temu Pixela 7a, zdjęcia są spoko. Sam mam Pixela 4a i jak na oko fotografa zdjęcia robi dobre w dobrze oświetlonych sceneriach, także zdecydowanie

Też polecam pod zdjęcia Pixela 7a, niestety to jeszcze ten Pixel bez 8-letniego wsparcia… Ale dwa lata pełnych aktualizacji i cztery lata aktualizacji bezpieczeństwa będą

Heute geht es ab 20:00 Uhr live auf #SpassMitVideospielen weiter mit #LucyDreaming, dem #pixel #Adventure durch die Traumwelten eines britischen Mädchens, das von Alpträumen geplagt wird.

Schnallt euch also gut an und macht die Lachmuskeln schonmal locker, dieses Game strotzt nur so von Referenzen auf die #Gaming- und #Popkultur-Welt.

Ich freue mich auf euch.

@loewe hmm die Qualität ist nicht die, die ich gewohnt bin. Vielleicht bist du ein Kompressionsopfer geworden ;) Speziell beim Fell sieht man es.

Mit Abstrichen bei Macroaufnahmen bin ich von den Pixel Kameras aber sonst total überzeugt 👌

andrewblasco,

Las personas somos eso, retales. Retales de lo que otras personas inculcaron en nosotros, retales de nuestras vivencias, de nuestras experiencias; de los lugares en los que hemos vivido y por los que hemos pasado. Y desgraciadamente también retales de lo que hemos sufrido.

Deberíamos recordarlo siempre. Las personas somos gracias a otros y gracias a nuestras experiencias.

scottrut,

8 excitement. Hi everyone. Today is a very exciting day. I finally purchased my pixel8 128 gig and today I will be setting it up for the first time. Will let you know how everything goes with the pixel eight and I again wish to thank all of the folk who provided me very valuable feedback when it came to asking about the pixel eight.

@scottrut We're really happy to hear that, Scott. Congratulations on your Pixel 8.

Dzisiaj jest ostatni dzień, gdy możecie wesprzeć usługi FTdL i Pol.social w lutym ❤️

Może na sprzęt? Bo coś zbiórka stanęła i ciężko nam rozwijać projekty:
https://ftdl.pl/nowy-hardware/

Może na nowy projekt ? Też trochę kuleje zbiórka:
https://ftdl.pl/start-pixelfeda/

Lub po prostu na usługi, a my zdecydujemy jak wykorzystać te środki?

A couple of weeks in and I have to say that I neither love nor hate the 8. It feels well built but generic in every way, which makes it great for a work phone, but whenever I use it, it reminds me that of the things that Asus and Samsung do a little better around the edges. There are a lot of little rough edges around AOSP that Asus and Samsung both polish off nicely in their own way (and I slightly prefer Asus' approach over Samsung's in that regard).

@vwbusguy I mean, you can spin up any custom ROM under the sun to get whatever theming and features u may want from it

holgerschurig,

@vwbusguy However. Samsung loads their phones with bloatware, some of which you cannot remove easily.

This don't exist on a Pixel.

Długi wpis na , czyli na fediwersowym odpowiedniku ->

Czemu nie 😉

Wpis pochodzi z z wtyczką , dotarł przez podbicie na , zawiera linki, bo z jakiego powodu (innego niż marketing ) miałby ich nie zawierać?🤔

Żegnajcie grodzone ogrody, robi robotę 🚀

Jeszcze trwa wdrożenie https://pixel.pol.social, jeszcze konfiguracja się poleruje, ale osoby ❤️ już mogą logować się swoim profilem Mastodona .

I'm thinking about migrating my #Pixel #Android to #LineageOS because #OpenSource, but am concerned that some apps - like banking #DKB, my health insurance #Generali and maybe others - may refuse to work due to issues with Device Integrity and/or detected root.

Is there some way of analyzing my device and apps prior to installing LineageOS to see which apps would be problematic?

larsmb,
@larsmb@mastodon.online avatar

@norbert But some use cases do seem to need it? AdAway, full backup, getting access to an app's data folders for syncing ...?

larsmb,
@larsmb@mastodon.online avatar

@norbert That's one of those remarkably limited statements on security that may be true for the mass market, but it's exactly the kind of limitation of what I get to do with my device that I want to get away from.
If I want someone else to decide that for me I can stick with Google's OS directly 🙂

ObscuraCam, pixela automaticamente i volti nelle fotografie

Indice dei contenuti

ObscuraCam: The Privacy Camera

open source
gratuita
permette di mettere dei pixel sulle facce delle persone riconoscendole in automatico
purtroppo non è più aggiornata da tempo

Quella che andremo a presentare oggi è un’applicazione davvero molto interessante sviluppata da Guardian Project, un collettivo di persone che si dedicano alla creazione di applicazioni per proteggere la propria privacy online. ObscuraCam è un’applicazione davvero molto interessante anche se, purtroppo, non viene aggiornata da diverso tempo.

ObscuraCam e Guardian Project

Come dicevamo il Guardian Project sviluppa diverse applicazioni importanti come ad esempio le mitiche https://guardianproject.info/apps/org.torproject.torbrowser/ e https://guardianproject.info/apps/org.torproject.android/. Nel corso del tempo hanno creato anche altre applicazioni meno famose anche se molte di queste sono state poi un po’ abbandonate a loro stesse come ad esempio https://guardianproject.info/apps/org.havenapp.main/ oppure https://guardianproject.info/apps/info.guardianproject.ripple/. Tra le varie applicazioni create c’è anche quella di cui vi parliamo oggi ovvero ObscuraCam: The Privacy Camera.

È un’applicazione molto semplice e, come abbiamo già detto, purtroppo non più aggiornata da qualche anno. Tuttavia funziona molto bene anche nelle ultimissime versioni di Android anche se è sparita la possibilità di usarla anche come applicazione per fare le fotografie, probabilmente per via cambi di API delle nuove versioni di Android 1.

Pixela i volti automaticamente

La funzione di ObscuraCam è presto detta: vi permetterà di inserire automaticamente dei pixel (o delle immagini coprenti o direttamente del nero) sui volti delle persone. Se ben ricordate abbiamo già parlato in passato di un’applicazione simile chiamata https://www.lealternative.net/2022/04/04/privacyblur/. La differenzia sostanziale è che in ObscuraCam i volti vengono riconosciuti automaticamente. Grazie a questo riconoscimento automatico è decisamente più semplice e veloce riuscire a coprire i volti delle persone prima di, eventualmente, condividere la foto.

Una volta dati i permessi all’applicazione per funzionare (richiede anche internet ma non è obbligatoria, se avete uno smartphone che permette di non dare la connessione internet potete anche togliergliela) potrete vedere le fotografie nei vostri album. Selezionate una fotografia con delle persone e vedrete che magicamente sarà comparso un pixel sul viso. Potete decidere di lasciarla così, se vi piace, e di premere subito salva per farne una copia. Se premete invece sul pixel creato potrete decidere se farlo diventare completamente nero, se pixelare tutto il resto lasciando integra la faccia oppure se mascherare il viso con qualcos’altro (maschera di Groucho, uno smile oppure maschera da luchador).

Scarica ObscuraCam

Se vi abbiamo incuriositi e se non vi interessa molto il fatto che l’applicazione è ferma da qualche anno vi lasciamo qui sotto i riferimenti per scaricarla. Il link sul Play Store non lo mettiamo perché è fermo al 2017 mentre l’ultimo aggiornamento dell’applicazione risale al 2021.
