• My sisters want me to photograph them with their phone instead of my $4,000 camera, so they can apply filters. :(

  Technically, Snap also offers Snap Camera which runs Snapchat filters on a PC. People use it between their webcam and Zoom, so they'll have access to all the AI filters and fun realtime effects during Zoom calls. (You could grab stills from it, but they wouldn't be any higher resolution than the stills you'd get from the Snapchat app on a phone.). Source: over 1 year ago

• She literally just A-ha’d her mom right into a mid-80’s MTV music video! Lol talk about a genuinely joyful response and moment to share!! (Not my video! Credit: lucytheidjit on TT)

  I know for Windows you can get the Snapchat filter for free with no account necessary (https://snapcamera.snapchat.com/). Pretty easy to use: Install it, select your webcam as the input, and use whatever camera app (even the regular Windows camera app) and tell it to use the "Snap Camera". I used to use it for video calls (Zoom, Teams, etc.). Source: over 1 year ago

• To Uncover a Deepfake Video Call, Ask the Caller to Turn Sideways

  It’s fairly trivial to have a virtual camera source and point Zoom to that as it’s input. It has nothing to do with integrating deeply with Zoom or getting “into” your Zoom. Check out Snap Camera[0] for an example. [0] https://snapcamera.snapchat.com/. - Source: Hacker News / almost 2 years ago

• Console streamers (Preferably Xbox) How do you do it?

  There's Snap Camera for playing with your webcam. I think Logitech also has some similar offerings. Source: almost 2 years ago

• Discord has been using ML to determine the gender and age of some of its users

  The beginning of enshitification of discord (while 100% expected) for some reason hits harder then any other service I've used throughout all these years. It has entirely replaced social media for me. It just felt more organic to me then anything else. So... Since I've heard about the ads coming to discord, and I have looked into alternatives. They do exist, in varying quality, and there are programs for some of... - Source: Hacker News / 22 days ago

• Qilin: A Starter Project Template For Every Open Source Project

  GitHub Discussions can also be a great place for support as long as these are regularly monitored. Another option along the same lines is Discourse and the Open Source Matrix which is used by quite a few Open Source and community-based projects. - Source: dev.to / 2 months ago

• A man has been swatted 47 times for making a joke about Norm Macdonald

  Tangential: the article notes that Telegram is an “encrypted messaging app”. While this is technically true, it's worth keeping in mind that it's not end-to-end encrypted, so it's less secure in that regard than, say, Signal or even WhatsApp. Telegram does have opt-in end-to-end encrypted one-on-one chats, but those are very inconvenient to use. For a properly encrypted chat app, including group chats (opt-in),... - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

• Launching Default End-to-End Encryption on Messenger

  I'd love something like the Matrix [0] data model (JSON messages aggregated in an eventually-consistent chatroom CRDT) transmitted over something like simplex for metadata resistance. [0] https://matrix.org. - Source: Hacker News / 6 months ago

• Meta is pulling the plug on Messenger chats on Instagram

  Trillian mod here. There's this new thing called Beeper, works on matrix.org. It's not as the good old times, but I'm currently using whatsapp, FB messenger, discord, telegram, signal, imessage and a few more. It's not Cerulean experience, but it's... Slowly improving. Source: 6 months ago
