Tribe Discovery Seedance 2.0 is smart enough to create... truly realistic footage! What’s shown on the camera screen and the actual people being filmed look almost identical — same lighting, same movement. Made on CapCut Video Studio. Prompt: Create a 15 second, 16:9 photorealistic nighttime discovery film built around an unbranded early-2000s silver MiniDV camcorder with a flip-out LCD. The physical camcorder dominates the foreground; its LCD stays tack-sharp while the real people and jungle location behind it fall into creamy shallow-focus blur. Keep one continuous believable handheld setup: close to the camcorder, drifting, breathing and making tiny human corrections, never gimbal-smooth. 0.0–1.3s Extreme close foreground view of the closed LCD panel and the operator’s fingers. Under warm firelight and cool moonlight, the hand flips the screen open toward camera. Focus snaps naturally from the camcorder shell to the glowing LCD. Behind it: a remote indigenous tribe gathered in a jungle clearing at night, dark canopy and towering trees, all soft and indistinct. 1.3–3.5s The LCD shows two tribal men and a young woman crowding the MiniDV lens, curious and cautious, exchanging quick glances and small hand gestures while leaning close. Inside the LCD use authentic low-resolution CCD video: harsh direct-camera light, clipped skin highlights, warm reds from fire, cool cyan shadows, fine chroma noise, mild scanline texture and tiny unreadable REC/timecode icons. The exterior world stays warmer and softer, creating a convincing screen-within-screen contrast. 3.5–5.8s The operator subtly pivots right. Parallax shifts the LCD across frame while a tribesman wearing traditional woven cloth and body paint drifts through the blurred background. On the LCD, cut naturally to a low-angle wide-lens clip of a young tribeswoman crouching and slowly moving toward the lens. Allow slight exposure pumping and imperfect autofocus. 5.8–8.2s Continue the handheld orbit. A bright campfire blooms near the top edge, producing mild halation and realistic flare. The LCD shows several tribe members standing shoulder-to-shoulder, observing the camera with quiet intensity, occasionally shifting or exchanging looks, never staged or choreographed. 8.2–10.8s More people enter the soft background; one briefly passes close enough to become a large blurred shape. Keep the camcorder body on the right edge and LCD near center. Inside the LCD, jump between quick candid portraits: an elder looking steadily into the lens, a young man turning his head, then a small group of women and children leaning together. Cuts happen only inside the LCD while the outer shot remains continuous. 10.8–13.0s The operator dips the camcorder slightly, then corrects upward. Warm firelight flares from lower frame. LCD color briefly shifts greener and darker like an old auto-white-balance error, then recovers. Add one very brief analog video hiccup; no digital VFX, floating graphics or impossible distortion. 13.0–15.0s Finish on three or four tribe members bunching into the MiniDV frame, watching the camera with quiet curiosity as the real background group mirrors their energy in blur. End with a tiny handheld push toward the LCD and natural highlight bloom from the fire. VISUAL RULES: 24fps outer capture, 1/48 shutter feel, 35–50mm full-frame look, f/1.8–2.2, handheld micro-jitter, subtle rolling shutter during faster pivots, fine high-ISO grain, realistic skin, true fabric and body-paint texture, practical firelight mixed with cooler moonlight. No plastic skin, warped hands, duplicated people, morphing faces, floating objects, synthetic bokeh, perfect symmetry or glossy CGI. The MiniDV LCD must emit believable light and clearly look like footage from an older camera.show more

A HARDWARE MODDER BOLTED A BATTERY PACK ONTO A... $599 MAC MINI M4 AND TURNED A DESK SERVER INTO A BACKPACK AI RIG THAT RUNS FOR EIGHT HOURS WITHOUT A WALL OUTLET he posts a video of the mac mini with a slim battery module clamped to the side, USB-C plugged into the back. no power brick, no outlet, just the 10 to 30W draw of the M4 chip pulling from a 20,000mAh bank. a full work day on one charge. this is not a portable laptop trick. it is a desk-class AI server that fits in a sling bag the same $599 mac mini i recommended in last week's article as the silent default, now untethered. pair it with a mobile hotspot or a Starlink mini and you have a fully off-grid LLM stack that answers questions in a forest, on a plane, in a power outage. the model lives in the box, the battery powers the box, that is the whole stack this is not a gadget. it is the first time the words "AI server" and "fits in your bag" belong in the same sentenceshow more

A small fix bladed knife is an excellent addition... to a pistol. Having it where you can access it with both hands is a lesson I learned the first time I had to fight in kit. The purpose is to get back to your pistol or make space so you can draw if someone is on top of you. Keeping it in a comfortable location will make you less likely to leave it at home, it doesn’t need to be a Bowie, just big enough to suit the role.show more

I’m trying to muster the confidence to start my... YouTube channel. Have been for a year tbh. It will be about how to make our brains (so the world) a bit easier to live in via simple neuroscience-based behavioural changes. It will also be about lovely twigs, making things & small good side quests. Worried I need a fancy camera (finances not up to that atm) so I went up the woods & filmed things with my phone. If this kind of footage was in a YouTube vid would you think ugh this is like watching a manky potato, or is this ok? Pls watch these clips & let me know in a comment if you have a moment 👇🏼show more

Stop buying electrolyte drinks… there’s a simpler way. Most... of the ones you’ll find in shops are packed with sugar, dyes, and unnecessary extras. But your body doesn’t need all of that to stay hydrated. In reality, proper hydration comes down to a few simple things: • water • a pinch of natural salt • a little glucose • and a touch of potassium Here’s a simple way to make your own at home: 1 quart filtered water ½ tsp sea salt 1–2 tsp honey (or sugar) juice of ½ a lemon The salt helps your body hold onto fluids. The glucose supports absorption. And the lemon adds a small boost of potassium + flavour. Simple. Natural. Effective.show more

There’s been some confusion/comments about my use of the... phrase “pull the goalie” … so I’ll explain what it means, why I use it and why I think it’s the right starting point to use for defining urban Family Friendly housing Like from this clip from Marley and Me, it has simply meant a couple having sex, while being open to having kids. The word " trying" can feel really strange at first ... so it's just the shift from preventing a pregnancy to being willing for one to happen. And there’s a very big difference between getting pregnant and deciding to be willing to get pregnant. That difference is *key* when it comes both to designing housing and to making a City more family friendly. I know plenty of couples who have gotten pregnant immediately, like on the honeymoon. And for others it has taken years of ACTUAL trying (tracking cycles, having sex at specific times of day, hormones, IVF) ... and for some of our friends despite all efforts it just has not happened. Only God knows when or if a couple will have a baby. Babies truly are a miracle. (On a related note, Marley and Me is a beautiful movie in telling the story of wanting a family and losing a baby. My wife and I have lost children, so we know a *bit* of what the heartbreak of miscarriage is like) But the shift for a couple to become WILLING to have a baby is one of the core reasons people struggle to have kids in cities. If someone looks around their apartment and thinks, “There is no way we could raise a baby here,” then they’re less likely to stop using birth control. Your home has to feel like it could accommodate a baby. A "Baby Maybe" home: a second small bedroom or a tiny home office, that could have be a nursery in a pinch. It enables the small, almost subconscious, mental threshold where you say, “You know what … we’d be fine if this happened.” That’s the moment. And for each couple, there will be 1000 other things that go into the equation: Can we afford for 1 of us to stay home, or full-time childcare? Do we see other kids around us? Is it safe enough for kids? Are there parks nearby? Do we need to be closer to family and cousins? All will be different for each family, but they ALL require that their current home is sufficient to be able to have a kid Otherwise, as soon as a couple finds out they are pregnant ... they call their parents, friends and family and tell them the good news ... and then immediately look on Zillow to move right away so they aren't giving birth AND moving the same time. It's kind of a bummer in an otherwise wonderful magical moment. We've seen many many couples move out of the City at that exact period. "Well, since we are moving anyway, we might as well go to where we think we will live long term." But it doesn't need to be that. Babies are small. At least for the first year, if you have a place to put them you're probably better off just staying in your current place and then figuring things out later. Maybe you DO need to move to the suburbs or be closer to family or you want a house with a yard. But that decision doesn't need to be right away. TLDR: Family Friendly housing doesn’t begin at birth. It begins when a couple can imagine a child fitting into their current home ... whether that's a rowhome with tiny bedrooms or a 1BR+Den apartment.show more

Hearfelt apealing In this scorching heat, one small act... of kindness can save a precious life. Please keep a water bowl outside your home, shop, office, or street for these voiceless souls who suffer silently due to extreme heat and lack of clean drinking water. Dogs, cats, birds, cows, and so many innocent animals struggle every single day just to find a sip of water. What may feel like a small gesture to us can become a lifeline for them. Look at this sweet furry fellow, how calmly he is having a sip of water. Moments like these remind us that kindness does not need to be big to make a huge difference. A bowl of clean water can bring relief, comfort, and hope to a thirsty soul fighting the harsh summer heat. Please refill the bowls daily and encourage others around you to do the same. Together, we can make this summer a little kinder for those who cannot ask for help. Be the reason a voiceless soul survives this heatwave with comfort and love. #AnimalWelfareshow more

A metal origami! 🪭 This method is called Hyperbolic... Metal Forming and is hypnotizing to watch. Instead of shaping metal with slow mechanical force, HMF uses controlled shockwaves to form complex geometries at extreme speed, often without the need for heavy dies or post-processing. The result is stronger, lighter parts with shapes that are almost impossible using traditional stamping. That’s why you see it popping up in aerospace, automotive structures, and defense components. Think of it like metal origami, but driven by high-energy pulses instead of presses. A small reminder that some things in manufacturing come from physics, not just automation. ~~ ♻️ Join the weekly robotics newsletter, and never miss any news →show more

most AI chatbots break when you ask a question... that requires info from multiple sources for example try asking: “which client contracts are finishing up this month?” you’ll get a half-answer — or none at all why? because traditional chatbots only look at small snippets of your docs - they don’t understand how things connect across clients, services, timelines that’s where knowledge graphs come in they let you turn messy contracts into a web of relationships — like: "Client → Contract Type → Service Provided → End Date" so instead of guessing from a few chunks of text, your chatbot can search across all your clients and contracts to give accurate answers I made a full walkthrough on how I built this: – how to organize your contracts so an AI can actually use them – how to define what matters (like who signed what, and when) – how to get the AI to figure out what info it needs and where to find it – and how to feed that back into your chatbot so it gives accurate answers reply “graph” and I’ll DM it to you (must be following)show more

Yes, Gen Z, we get it—you don’t care about... data privacy. But that’s just a tiny part of the story. The real issue here is control. The Chinese Communist Party is using TikTok to build a blueprint of influence over you and our society. They’re not just tracking what you do; they’re deciding what you see, and therefore *how you think*. There is plenty of evidence this is already happening. Now imagine how much more powerful it would be as an information warfare weapon when the proverbial shit hits the fan in a potential conflict over Taiwan. Yeah, the Chinese will take control of all advanced semi-conductor chips in Taiwan (the ones that power your precious smartphone), and then use your addiction to TikTok to convince you it’s all a good idea. TikTok, as an entertainment platform, is an incredible product. It’s fun, it’s creative, and millions of Americans love using it. But we also need to recognize that it’s a Trojan horse. And right now, that horse is carrying Chinese Communist Party influence into our backyard and sending American’s data back to Beijing. That’s the problem we need to solve. The goal here is not about trying to stop American small businesses who use TikTok to promote themselves, the latest dances, or end “brain rot” trends—though maybe fixing that wouldn’t hurt either. It’s about making sure that enjoyment doesn’t come at the cost of our privacy, our freedom, or our national security. There’s a way to fix this. We don’t need to kill TikTok; we need to kick the Chinese Communist Party out of it. Ownership by someone who shares—or at least respects—our democratic values is the solution. People like Kevin O’Leary from Shark Tank and Dodgers owner Frank McCourt are already exploring a potential acquisition. But the fact that TikTok seems unwilling to even consider this solution tells us all we need to know about its true purpose.show more

Seedence 2 mini on CapCut Prompt: SCENE – Seedance... 2.0 | 15s Everyday Island Moments @ image1 = Main Subject. Preserve the exact face, identity, hairstyle, skin tone, and proportions from @ image1 throughout. Same outfit and accessories. Authentic Indonesian woman. Late-2000s pocket camcorder aesthetic. Raw handheld footage with noticeable shake, accidental framing, focus hunting, slight grain, washed warm tones, and nostalgic home-video imperfections. 00:00–00:02 Small local market near the harbor. Selfie shot while weaving through stalls, smiling at the camera as vendors arrange fresh fruit. 00:02–00:04 Wooden bridge crossing a narrow canal. Camera follows from behind as she walks casually, brushing her fingers along the railing. 00:04–00:06 Tiny bakery window. She receives a paper-wrapped snack from an elderly shop owner and laughs softly. 00:06–00:08 Quiet seaside path. She pauses to watch children flying a kite in the distance, turning briefly toward the camera. 00:08–00:10 Under a large tree beside parked bicycles. Sitting on a low bench, flipping through old postcards or notes. 00:10–00:12 Small beach area. Standing barefoot near the shoreline, letting waves touch her feet while wind moves her hair. 00:12–00:15 Casual selfie shot while walking away from the beach. She smiles, says something playful to the lens, and the recording stops abruptly. Natural ambience only: waves, birds, children playing, bicycle bells, distant conversations, breeze, footsteps, and harbor sounds.show more

it's insane what seedance 2.5 is capable of here's... another example full prompt: CAMERA: Handheld DV 16mm daily vlog footage. The video MUST begin with her holding the camera at arm's length in selfie mode while stepping outside her apartment building with her dog. The first 20–30 seconds are entirely handheld. Later she occasionally places the camera on a park bench, low stone wall, picnic table, or the ground for wider shots. Keep subtle handheld shake, drifting composition, autofocus hunting, rushed reframing, uneven zooms, exposure breathing, brief accidental face cropping, and imperfect framing throughout. The camera itself is never visible. LOOK: Warm analog tape texture with gentle film grain, slightly softened sharpness, subtle halation around sunlight, realistic skin tones, low contrast, tiny exposure shifts, and natural motion blur. It should feel like authentic footage from someone's everyday life rather than a polished commercial. STYLE: A relaxed morning lifestyle vlog. Quiet, cozy, and spontaneous. She occasionally laughs at her dog, pauses to look around, adjusts the leash, brushes hair away from her face, and speaks naturally in short sentences with comfortable pauses. CHARACTER: EMMA — a beautiful white woman in her mid-20s. Long light brown hair in a messy ponytail, green eyes, minimal makeup, oversized gray hoodie, black biker shorts, white sneakers, and a small crossbody bag. She is walking a happy golden retriever. SETTING: A peaceful suburban neighborhood on a sunny morning. Tree-lined sidewalks, quiet residential streets, birds singing, a small park with benches, green grass, and soft golden morning light. Very few people are around. SCENES: The vlog opens in selfie mode. Emma holds the camera while leaving her apartment building with the golden retriever excitedly pulling on the leash. "Good morning." She smiles. "Someone couldn't wait." The dog eagerly sniffs everything as they walk down the sidewalk. She laughs quietly. "He has to inspect every single tree." Still holding the camera, she walks into a small neighborhood park. The dog suddenly stops and stares at a squirrel. "Oh... there we go." She smiles and gently shakes her head. She places the camera on a nearby bench for a wider angle while throwing a tennis ball. The dog happily chases after it. "Worth waking up early." She picks the camera back up. Walking slowly through the park, she looks up at the trees for a moment. "It's actually really peaceful out here." The dog returns with the ball but drops it halfway. She laughs. "Close enough." She sits on the bench while the dog lies beside her. She scratches behind his ears. "I think he's happier than I am." She stands up and continues walking. The camera stays in selfie mode as they head toward home. "Coffee is definitely next." She smiles into the lens. "See you later." She gives a small wave and ends the recording.show more

This guy built a visual scanner that reads 468... points on his face and 42 points on his hands from a regular webcam and turns them into a cloud of thousands of particles right between his palms. Inside, MediaPipe and TouchDesigner are linked: the first captures hands and face from the webcam with high accuracy, the second turns those coordinates into a live plane and feeds it into a POP system that instantly generates a swarm of particles in the shape of a head. No studio, no render farmer, no VR headset. Just a laptop, a webcam, and 1 TouchDesigner session. And traditional VJ studios keep teams of 5 people on a setup with lighting, custom hardware, and commercial plugins, while his expenses are only a TouchDesigner subscription and a regular USB camera. One laptop runs MediaPipe and TouchDesigner simultaneously, holds the camera stream at 60 FPS without drops, and in parallel processes 468 face points + 21 points on each hand. The camera captures frame after frame, MediaPipe in real time sends TouchDesigner the finger coordinates and face geometry, and the POP operator inside the engine translates those numbers into thousands of particle points with colors from bright pink to gold. This setup immediately defines the role of the tool and the limits of its autonomy. It knows where the fingertips are at every moment of the frame. It knows how to read the face geometry at any angle to the camera. It knows how to draw a swarm of particles between them with the right color and contour. → MediaPipe pulls 468 points from the face and 21 points from each hand, 60 times per second → TouchDesigner receives those coordinates, builds a virtual rectangle between the fingertips, and feeds it into the POP system → POP generates thousands of particle points in the shape of a head, coloring them in a gradient from bright pink to gold → The HUD layer adds green corners and a blue neon frame, styling the image like an AR interface → All layers assemble into 1 real-time frame that projects back onto the video in the camera window → The final image is recorded to a file or broadcast to a projector for a live installation And only when the guy spreads his hands wider does the plane between the palms stretch; brings them together, it narrows. Otherwise the system runs on its own. And when he moves from his home room to a concert hall, the same laptop with the same webcam launches the same TouchDesigner session in just 5 minutes, without reconfiguration, without a new team, and without a single line of new code. In his work setup there is no studio of his own and no team for assembly. On the desk sits a laptop with a webcam, on top run MediaPipe and TouchDesigner with POP operators, and the same setup through a USB camera moves to any concert without a new configuration. Out of everything I have seen this year, this is the cleanest Creative Coding setup on 1 laptop: 0 render farms, 0 studio lighting, and between them 3 libraries, thousands of particle points, and 1 webcam.show more

Today we visited Power at 3 PM. The vets... informed us that she didn't eat anything during the night, so they started an intravenous drip with fluids (saline/water) to keep her hydrated. Even during our visit she did not wanna eat anything, but we did manage to give her a solid 45 minutes of pure cuddles. We also received the three invoices covering the Operation that she will get on monday, daily hospitalization costs plus the full ultrasound they gave her. (and I'll upload them to the main GoFundMe page). The Veterinary confirmed that the operation will be an exploratory laparoscopy with a micro camera to see what's going on and there will be no actual removal of the mass just a biopsy of a small part of the tissue and lymph node to get analized. and that they will need to make a second surgery when her clinical situation get more clearer to get the mass removed and start the chemo. Sadly we have not yet a quote for those. Power will also get a gastric tube to make feeding her easier. With that, she will be able to come home to us wednesday while we wait for the removal surgery. She relaxed a lot during our visit and of course we will continue to update on her conditions daily! thank you so much to all the people that decided to help Power with the donations you have no idea how gratefull I am.show more

🚨 CATL SAYS LITHIUM-AIR BATTERIES COULD ONE DAY DELIVER... 1600+ KM RANGE WITH ENERGY DENSITY APPROACHING PETROL. The world’s largest battery maker is pushing a radical “breathing” battery technology that replaces heavy nickel, cobalt and manganese with lithium metal and oxygen pulled directly from the air. In early lab tests, researchers have already achieved around 1,200 Wh/kg more than four times today’s best lithium-ion cells. With further development, CATL believes the technology could theoretically reach ~12,000 Wh/kg, close to the energy density of petrol itself. Why this matters: • It could slash battery weight and cost dramatically • Small EVs might achieve 1,600+ km of real-world range • It removes dependence on scarce metals like nickel and cobalt • A 1,000-cycle prototype with 1,600 km range would theoretically last 1.6 million kilometres The deeper implication: Lithium-air represents one of the few battery chemistries that could genuinely match or exceed the convenience of petrol without massive compromises. If the enormous technical hurdles (moisture sensitivity, cycle life, and oxygen management) can be solved, it wouldn’t just improve EVs it could fundamentally change what’s possible for electric aviation, long-haul transport, and portable power. We’re still very early. Current prototypes are far from commercial, and most experts expect mass production only after 2030 at the earliest. But the fact that the company producing over half the world’s high-voltage batteries is seriously pursuing this shows how transformative the payoff could be. Would you rather see solid-state batteries win the next decade, or do you think lithium-air could leapfrog them entirely?

🚨 URGENT CALL: HELP US TRACK THIS INTRIGUING FIGURE... FROM THE UVU EVENT—COULD YOUR VIDEO OR PIC CLARIFY WHAT HE'S HOLDING? LET'S BUILD A FULL PICTURE FOR CHARLIE'S TRUTH! As we continue piecing together the heartbreaking events of September 10th at UVU, I've come across this one individual who has me genuinely curious—and I could use your eyes and archives to help clarify things. He's positioned on the overpass or walkway atop the BA Building, directly behind Charlie Kirk's tent. If you're visualizing from the crowd's perspective facing the stage, he'd be just slightly to the left of where Charlie was seated. Take a close look at what appears to be in his hands—could it be a camera capturing the moment? Perhaps a small device like a drone controller? Or something else entirely? I'm not suggesting anything nefarious here at all; he could just be an innocent attendee. But understanding his position and movements before, during, and after the incident could add valuable context to the timeline we're all working to reconstruct—especially with the questions around the rooftop, the left-side evidence markers, and those pre-event IP searches we've discussed. If you have any photos, videos, or clips from that day showing him—or even the surrounding area—please send them my way! Genuine appreciation for any leads that help us honor Charlie's memory with facts, not assumptions. Together, we're stronger in seeking real answers and challenging the lies our own government is trying to feed us. Your contribution could be the missing link —who knows? I'm so grateful for this awesome community. Let's keep it respectful, focused, and forward-moving. As always DO NOT CONTACT anyone in my post, leave that to us.show more

She wears a grey ribbed zip-up crop top and matching grey sweatpants, layered gold necklaces. She excitedly holds up a small cute pink lip tint bottle labeled “#02 Strawberry Milk” with a strawberry icon and “sstrawberry” branding, speaking to camera with an open-mouthed enthusiastic expression. Behind her looms an oversized identical giant version of the same bottle (same pink gradient cap, white body, red text, strawberry graphic). She steps back to fully reveal the giant bottle, gestures toward it while holding the mini bottle, compares them side-by-side (“same cap, same bottle, even the little strawberry”), unscrews the mini bottle to show the doe-foot applicator with juicy pink product, swatches the glossy strawberry-milk pink shade on the back of her hand, then applies it to her lips while looking at camera. She ends by smiling and holding the closed mini bottle up close to the lens. Bright, soft beauty lighting, shallow depth of field, smooth camera moves (close-up on product → medium shot revealing giant bottle → product detail → application close-up), vibrant pink color grading, high-end influencer/product-demo aesthetic, 14-second vertical video, cinematic quality.show more

Honestly, I hate that I even have to say... this, but seeing people use one single fancam to claim Sana “can’t dance” is genuinely ridiculous. Y’all, for everyone dragging Sana because of one video from the 73rd THIS IS FOR tour show, I think it’s important to look at the full context before judging her dancing ability. First of all, Sana had been dealing with a cold, flu, and cough for over a month at that point, which can definitely affect stamina and performance consistency during a 2–3 hour concert. There are also several factors that can make the dancing look less smooth in that particular fancam: 1. Outfit If you’ve watched other fancams from this black outfit era, Sana was adjusting her outfit quite often on stage because it seemed to shift, slip, or sit unevenly at times. An uncomfortable outfit can naturally affect movement and make a performer more cautious. 2. Camera tracking The camera appears to follow her movements slightly late. Even a small delay can make smooth transitions look jerky or abrupt when viewed on video. 3. Awkward zoom distance The fancam isn’t zoomed out enough to show the full choreography, but it’s also not close enough to focus on facial expressions. Because of that, viewers end up focusing mostly on body transitions and posture, which can make movements look harsher than they actually are. 4. Phone camera limitations High-energy movements recorded on a phone can suffer from motion blur, stabilization issues, and frame-rate limitations. Sharp movements that look clean in person can appear choppy or less fluid on video. 5.Stamina This was already the 73rd show of the tour. Performing the same demanding choreography for dozens of concerts while dealing with illness can affect anyone’s energy level. And if this one clip is enough to convince you that Sana “can’t dance,” then I encourage you to watch other performances of Right Hand Girl from different angles and different outfits. Looking at a performer’s overall body of work will always give a more accurate picture than judging them from a single fancam. One fancam does not erase years of consistently solid performances.show more
