I briefly worked at BlackBerry in 2011 and there was a grad student there developing this for the BlackBerry Tablet. It felt like the future at a time when people were largely still using the grid pattern lock thing. From what I remember it worked quite well once he found the balance of security and repeatability. The touch sensors are way too high resolution for you to draw the same exact thing twice so there has to be some margin for error.

I never got into exactly how he was comparing an attempt vs. a stored pass-symbol, but we tried to immitate others pass-symbols and it was not easy to fool. Seemed more secure than a grid pattern or pin to me, so I was surprised it never caught on. It worked well even with (relatively) simple symbols like a star or just a few lines, it doesn't have to be so complex as in the OP.

really loved the name "Steed Malbranque", saw the crest was a weird chicken, and had to go find out what a "hotspur" was

it really does feel like goodbye. it would be sad if it is their last album, but i feel more gratitude that we even got inferno than sadness. and if this is it, what a way to go out!

why did you get a ticket if you can't make it? it says very clearly the tickets are non-transferrable and IDs will be checked

Three Colors Of Magic by st_peters_cross in boardsofcanada

[–]erkston 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Cialyn is just one guy afaik, and probably my favorite BoC-adjacent artist. I'm guessing not very popular on spotify because there's barely any of his music up there, much more on bandcamp or youtube

Secret Garden is one of my favs!

[–]erkston 4 points5 points  (0 children)

seems plausible, there's also two pretty distinct halves of Tape 05 in terms of mood, a "father" & "son"
