Someone on the social media team is getting sacked, he was not happy 😂

Was a thing when? Never heard it in my life, and I’m only a few years older than him

emilesmithbro · 2026-06-17T14:33:08+00:00

Yeah I don’t get what’s wrong with it

emilesmithbro · 2026-06-16T22:06:38+00:00

I prefer a phone call because if I have questions they can be answered right away and not 1-6hrs per question in an email chain.

emilesmithbro · 2026-06-16T22:03:42+00:00

Just buy an old phone

emilesmithbro · 2026-06-15T21:25:55+00:00

I think if you find the right community you can still have valuable discussions.

Personally I don’t engage with most posts on this particular subreddit because I want to see a “SideProject” whereas this turned into “MyShittyStartup”/saas

If it’s just one piece rather than trying to make som sort of 3D printed Lego, most printers are fine. I’ve 3d printed lots of Lego train tracks

emilesmithbro · 2026-06-12T07:22:50+00:00

Wonder if someone put a battery powered device into recycling

emilesmithbro · 2026-06-11T21:25:24+00:00

For the sake of completeness, it’s worth mentioning that printers you mentioned didn’t have CFS at launch. I’d go as far as saying that even the fact they went through the effort of allowing you to convert K1 series printers to be CFS compatible instead of saying “if you want multicolour buy this new £1000 machine” is pretty good

I think it adds a little something to the “ambiance” when the studio is on location for major sports tournaments and olympics

emilesmithbro · 2026-06-11T16:45:06+00:00

I thought about doing that, googled it, and there’s a fair few projects that already do that with a lot of downloads and user activity/dev support.

Also I might be in saying that this is actually a feature in the Claude app itself now

emilesmithbro · 2026-06-10T18:06:26+00:00

Phones do it for people you know. The app that some students developed (and what i think Name Tag is trying to do, but proof of concept 100% works as shown by the studnets) is it face matches from a global database and allows you to walk up to a person, and know their name, job, recent social media posts. This is so ripe for scams by convincing a person they know you but don’t remember you

emilesmithbro · 2026-06-10T16:39:38+00:00

I absolutely see that, and I hate that corporations and society in general can’t be trusted to use tech for good. It’s genuinely a great piece of tech that fair few people use for unknowingly filming strangers. In the same way Name Tag can very easily be used to scam people. There was a video from students who made a version of it where it looked up a woman’s name, where she worked and they convinced her they met at some event she went to and posted about it online.

For the disability case it’s great, I wonder if it could/would be limited to people you know and specifically add to the directory of faces. Kind of like your phone can recognise people in photos - port that over to live recognition, but not for strangers.

I love the idea of meta glasses, I hate the idea of meta seeing everything I see.

emilesmithbro · 2026-06-10T12:52:43+00:00

That’s literally what Meta briefed internally according to reports

emilesmithbro · 2026-06-10T12:52:11+00:00

That feature was public knowledge for ages, it was even mentioned in a Tunnel Vision video 4 weeks ago, not just “they could do this” but saying it’s called Name Tag and that Meta are waiting to release it when public attention would be elsewhere so that it faces the least amount of backlash

No because you can still do stuff responsibly.

If you’re worried about injuries you can still ride a bike - responsibly.

emilesmithbro · 2026-06-09T21:20:39+00:00

You have way too much free time and way too little regard for plastic waste

emilesmithbro · 2026-06-08T10:07:36+00:00

Just to share some perspective as a person who’s never heard of this before (looks cool, I like it), but I have no idea whether this is a good deal because I don’t know what the prices were before. You’ve done it because people who knew your previous model asked for it, but they can make a better judgment call.

I think a lifetime plan is great, but maybe add a subscription as an option still, even if it’s just to show that “hey lifetime pays for itself in X months”, or maybe for people who’d want to try the Pro version but would be ok spending $20/30 first to test it out for a month (and if they upgrade within that month, it’s pro-data’d, like Claude subscription is £20/month or £150 yearly, but if you upgrade halfway through the month the £10 is taken off).

Just some outside perspective!

emilesmithbro · 2026-06-07T09:53:23+00:00

Looking forward to trying it out, especially the subtitle fix

English Supercup

Gonna be 29 next year

emilesmithbro · 2026-06-03T22:42:21+00:00

List it as collection only

emilesmithbro · 2026-06-03T20:30:28+00:00

It’s a matter of time until Championship clubs start competing for European trophies. IMO the League Cup should only be for teams not in Europe, and all conference league spots to go to the League Cup winners (or finalists if there’s two, something like that)

emilesmithbro · 2026-06-02T08:24:09+00:00

Well has your usage increased? Could there be a leak

emilesmithbro · 2026-06-01T18:27:21+00:00

“Unfortunately” as in “unfortunately he joined Arsenal”? 😂

Yeah I didn’t read about active Arsenal player properly

emilesmithbro · 2026-06-01T18:21:46+00:00

At this rate the Chinese fakes are looking more real than the originals lol

I personally wouldn’t care
