Took a quick look at some posts there and this stood out: https://discuss.pixls.us/t/extreme-highlight-recovery-in-dar... In my opinion, the Lightroom edit in the OP is the best. Many of the replies with Darktable edit

Swift is absolutely an afterthought on non-Apple platforms. Apple doesn't even provide ARM slices for the official Swift Docker images ( https://hub.docker.com/_/swift?tab=tags ) which makes server-side development

The jump from 3840x2160 to 5120x2880 is nearly 2x, in pixel count. That is not just a 'tweak existing technology' kind of jump. TCON's that can handle a single logical 4K display are just hitting the market, and Apple has one

No. Under Time Dilation, everyone on the node is affected equally. This gives you more reaction time, but your opponent gets the same benefit. Edit: I see what you were saying now. Actually yes, I believe that there have been cases in which

Is this an attempt to spark some inane conspiracy theory? A suggestion that Aaron's involvement as a 'source' made him a target of the government, so his suicide was not actually a suicide but rather a targeted attack?

"The stock has been artificially inflated for too long and this was bound to happen some time." Actually, Apple's P/E ratio has been fairly modest for a long time, especially compared to other tech companies that don't rake in as much cash.

Maybe not a putdown, but it's silly to view Apple's defining characteristic as their ability to assemble a device from available parts. If that ability is what makes them successful, then their rival phone manufacturers should be even more

Everyone is missing the point here. The problem isn't that these cameras are old tech and using outdated CCD censors. If these were the best images we've seen to date of Mars, you're right, there'd be a "Good Enough Factor" — the best image

Some of the images, and the one I used for my comparison, are from the Mastcam, I believe. The MAHLI is the only visible light camera that hasn't been used at this point.

While yes, the full color image I posted was re-compiled from the original red, green, and blue channel images sent from the rover by a non-NASA source, even NASA's B&W images look better back then than they do now. I made an image to i

False dichotomies are fun and all, but let's be honest. Does it really either have to "die a hero" or "become the villain"? The whole point is that Twitter has become the villain, and that App.net is providing an API infrastructure, not a c

While yes, the original pictures from the low res camera look bad, the new raw pictures from the higher-resolution cameras aren't really that much better. Better than the images from the iPhone 1, probably. But better than Viking 1 images
