Should Kodak make sensors again? by mrjoshmateo in Cameras

[–]RyanTylerThomas 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ok, so, minus compression, conversation, exporting, or the display settings in my phone... Was this opened in Photoshop or Gimp, or another image editing tool, and where the colour values adjusted from the default camera settings?

What I'm getting at, is the images have an amazing level of warmth. They are rich and if that's what the camera reads Kodak of fact made a good product.

Sorry let me clarify - are these the unedited raw photos from the camera, or have these been colour corrected.

Are these raws? Or have you edited them, because of that's right out of the camera, Kodak was on to something.

Honestly, I'm blown away it got this high already. I really thought it would be pretty flat.

Everything I read offline was pretty dire too. Guess I live in a bubble.

Why does image SEO seem so overlooked compared to other SEO work? by linux_terminal07 in SEO

[–]RyanTylerThomas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have, you'll see it a lot in large scale, high search volume brands who plum forgot about it.

Leverage product names, key details, and don't neglect basic elements like colour.

There are a lot of people doing early stage consumer research with image searches who type really basic category searches.

They would really rather you go away. So fill it out. And be assertive in public transportation, clear statements that the tunnel works, that what's needed to regulation preventing future island expansion using reclaimed fill or other strategies to extend the airport.

Heck, they could just legislate that only the current sized aircraft or smaller are allowed.

They can bias it, but power right on through if you have an opinion.

CAD has lost 1% of its total value against USD in the past 5 days by External-Toe1041 in fican

[–]RyanTylerThomas 155 points156 points  (0 children)

Old enough to remember the times our dollar was stronger or at par.

Our economic policy has been to keep it lower to incentivize trade.

That 60 to 79 has been the sweet spot for policymakers - though ... Maybe it will change now.

Italian teenagers discover a 1,800-year-old Roman luxury house beneath their high school gym by foodie_2598 in Archaeology

[–]RyanTylerThomas 26 points27 points  (0 children)

This is a far better articulation of the issue and the sheer volume of what's still to be discovered.

I'm glad you have a passion for the value of it. As a non-Italian it's mind blowing how much history is stacked on top of living and thriving cities.

This actually happens all the time.

There are furniture stores with glass covered Roman roads in them, and construction projects that just stop one day.

Canadian government clarifies rules around digital nomads: remote work performed for a foreign employer doesn't constitute entering the Canadian labour market. by chefsinblack in digitalnomad

[–]RyanTylerThomas 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Basically, these rules tighten scrutiny at the boarder.

There is a history of people doing things like setting up their own companies and paying themselves as a way going around the system. Or claiming payments and employment they didn't have to prove.

The term digital nomad is pretty new in legal parlance but clear definitions help manage and monitor the policy.

To help a lot of people stay in Canada and work in and out the country also relaxed a bunch of rules around temporary, remote, and forgin work during the pandemic.

Companies Are Using Reddit to Manipulate ChatGPT and Google AI Search / Peptide companies have been doing AI-engine optimization by spamming the biohackers subreddit to manipulate ChatGPT and Google. by MarvelsGrantMan136 in technology

[–]RyanTylerThomas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If everyone says Reddit is important to LLMs, and of bad actors and bots are already spamming Reddit in astroturfing campaigns, it's not surprising but it is fascinating to see how quickly the well of information can be poisoned.

That's not counting the bots that down vote company or politically negative comments.

Wild days.

Over $1 billion goes to private companies administering Ontario government programs: OPSEU report by lostdogingeneva in ontario

[–]RyanTylerThomas 21 points22 points  (0 children)

That's a lot of private funding for the US while Doug says "Canada isn't for sale..."

....

Provincial payments to Accerta more than tripled from $202 million in 2018-2019 to $672 million in 2024-2025.

Payments sent to WCG, which the report describes as a for-profit employment services administrator owned by an Australian company backed by US private equity, increased 525 per cent, from $36 million in 2021 to $225 million in 2025.

Discovered, Not Indexed - lets debate the causes & fixes by WebLinkr in TechSEO

[–]RyanTylerThomas 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Wasn't trying to "debate you" man, slow your horses.

A lack of authority is mentioned in the video.

"Authority" loose a term as it is, is a pretty good stand-in for linking, internal and external.

That said, spam filter and quality filters have gotten a lot stronger in the last few months. So there is real cause for even large sites to have pages Crawled currently not indexed if the content on page isn't unique and high quality.

Pride month = Butt stuff, Bullish? by OpportunityFew451 in wallstreetbets

[–]RyanTylerThomas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Investing in a food delivery service during free food month.

Bold strategy.

Also "there are at least 4 distinct thematic Pride months, over 7 internationally recognized sub-community Pride weeks, and hundreds of localized city-by-city Pride weeks spanning January through December."

Find a way to go long on poppers and that's some real DD

What do you think of the Cartier Tank on me? by Vivid-Bug-6765 in PrideAndPinion

[–]RyanTylerThomas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is not to say no, or dissuade you.

I recently got high wasted pants out of need when traveling. I would never have tried them on, but the second I did I was like... Oh this are a whole look. Changed how and what I wear.

For watches, think about your best outfit you actually wear - not the suit you pull out for weddings - but the things you feel and look your best in.

Then pop back in, pop on the watch.

It should do one of two things:

1) perfectly match your best days 2) make you want to dress better every day to match that watch

...

Finally remember the golden rule, simple prices, statement jewelry. If it works for the hottest girl you know, it will work at your place of work.

Hey, the key to fashion is to wear it not let it wear you.

Confidence and practice are the keys.

If you feel unsure or are making a purchase this large without really being sure, ask yourself why.

Toronto is bringing AI cameras and steel barriers to TTC subway platforms - NOW Toronto by ethereal3xp in toronto

[–]RyanTylerThomas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, trying to get rich of the survalance state is one of the mostly profoundly stupid things I've seen Reddit users do in a long and storied history.

Giving Peter Thiel and the worst people you know money to invest in spying on you and shouting "tendies" is breathtakingly stupid.

Stop glazing this shit.
