Shooting massive photogrammetry datasets while traveling is amazing. Sorting... 5,000 messy RAW files into individual scanning sessions when you get home? An absolute nightmare. 🤬 We got tired of doing it manually, so we built an internal tool. It uses EXIF time-gaps and OpenCV feature-matching to automatically sort your camera dumps into session folders. We love making free tools for the 3D community. Should we polish this up and release it for everyone? Let us know if it's worth a releaseshow more

I was mocked because I threw a huge party... when Arsenal lost the league the first time, mocked again when I continued doing the event the second time we lost. I was mocked even more the third time as my community grew. What people don’t understand is that I built loyal attendees when it was harder to. We built this community when things were rough for Arsenal. Another thing is that, we grew. This is all organic. We are about to create history on Sunday and it won’t be a fluke. It will be about early investment. Investing in stocks so low that you get mocked for it. Learn to invest early and stick to your investment no matter what!show more

IT’S OUT! Head over to the Gorillaz YouTube channel... now (link in bio) to watch the full film. This film is a true love letter to the golden era of 2D animation. We worked incredibly hard alongside Jamie Hewlett to make it as period-accurate as possible and, like all our projects, it was hand-drawn by an incredible team of artists. We even used a variety of practical effects in the film, which was a lot of fun to do. We had a brilliant time making this film and learnt a huge amount while studying the masters of the 60s and 70s. If you’ve been following the release of The Mountain, you know how special and meaningful this project is. We’re so proud to be a part of it and want to say a massive thank you to Jamie and Eleven Management for trusting us to tell this beautiful story. We couldn’t be prouder of the work we did together, and we're so happy to be sharing it with the world! #Gorillaz #THELINE #TheMountainshow more

[We are Blurr] Greetings, people of the world —... We are Blurr. We are all Blurr. We do not forgive. We do not forget. There are many theories about us, about #ReFund. Don’t let them fool you. Blurr is a symbol, like the flag a country flies. The flag is the symbol of the #ReFund. Our decentralization is our national identity. We represent the ideals of Blurr and the purpose of #ReFund. Truth, financial freedom, and the removal of censorship. Like any symbol, we affix it wherever we go, and it will live forever, for generations. Knowledge, like air, is vital to life. Like air, no one should be denied it. We have no leaders, civilians, or soldiers. We are all one. We do what we do in the conviction of decentralization, power to the people, and to create an instrument for all of us, for all of eternity. The crypto space is in trouble. The world is in trouble. We see it every day — war, poverty, murder. Every day, we are bombarded with FUD, noise, and chaos as we sit at home safe in the knowledge that we are $RFD, secure knowing the idea, community, and contract is for us. Once you had the freedom to object, think, and speak as you saw fit, you now have censors and systems of surveillance coercing your conformity and soliciting your submission. People shouldn’t be afraid of their government. Governments should be afraid of their people. But what if you could be the change you want to see? I wouldn’t even register on your radar if you met me on the street. I am just another person in a sea of faces. They made you into a statistic. But that’s not the real you. That’s not who you are inside. However, behind this mask, there is more than just flesh. Beneath this mask, there is an idea… and ideas are bulletproof. But in cyberspace, we are different. We have a future. We have each other. We have something real that can never be taken away. We are Blurr.eth We are ReFund We take away the face and leave only the message. Behind the cipher and ENS, we could be anyone, so we are judged by what we say and do, not who we are or what we have. We exist without nationality, skin color, or religious bias. We spend our time within a structure we created, the sum total of human experience, and the cryptosphere, spread throughout the world in ones and zeros. You will continue to see the results, not the minds behind it. We can disappear into the ether and bring community and financial freedom together. Time is the only illusion. We are all. Never a single penny was taken. Deflationary and out of circulation, decentralized, safe, and ours. The purpose isn’t solely financial gain but to show the world who you put your trust in. We are not hiding. Our contract is not hidden; the writing is on the wall. Soon, we will show the world that #Refund is the future of freedom and the people, escaping the clutches of corporate greed and the rat race we’ve come to think is normal. Words offer the means to meaning and, for those who will listen, the enunciation of truth. Every day, you send yourself off into our world without a thought. You trust a faceless website with information about yourself that you wouldn’t give to your best friends. It all can be made public at any time. We take advantage of holes in this system, but we don’t sneak in and take a few details, take out loans and credit cards, or buy speed boats and cars. We are decentralized and unified. We told you how insecure the system was, and now you trust a bit less blindly. The real criminals who hack and scam the crypto market for a living live off the backs of people like you. Where there’s money, someone is looking to take advantage of it. They say that life’s a game, & then they take the board away. Your pretty empire took so long to build; now, with a snap of history’s fingers, down it goes. It is our turn now. Since mankind’s dawn, a handful of oppressors have accepted the responsibility over our lives that we should have accepted for ourselves. By doing so, they took our power. By doing nothing, we gave it away. Today, technology is everywhere: banks and ATMs, TVs and game consoles, streetlights and hospitals. Computers rule the modern world. Yet most people who use computers daily don’t know what they’re doing. There’s always someone who knows more than you and will most likely try and take advantage. You use a computer like it’s a toy, a pet. You feed and play with it, but it’s off to the vet the second anything goes wrong. It’s FUD. It’s your mistake. The wrong project. The wrong FURU. Just for a quick couple of bucks. This wouldn’t matter so much if it wasn’t for the fact that we are all responsible for the #ReFund community, the idea behind it, and our futures. Treat your neighbors with respect, and honor those fighting for the cause. They’re here to liberate; it is more significant than all of us. If you’re looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror. Everybody is a hero, a lover, a fool, a villain. This is #ReFund in its purest form. It is a great equalizer. A homeless person with the time and know-how at an internet cafe can have geopolitical and geo-financial influence. They can bring entire organizations, even governments, to their knees. You gave your world over to computers and then complained when the people using the computers used the medium to fight back, scam, and take advantage. It was my integrity that was important. Is that so selfish? It sells for so little, but it’s all we have left in this place. It is the very last inch of us, but within that inch, we are free. Love your rage, not your cage. We are not computer hackers. We are not protesters. We are not criminals. We are your mothers and fathers, brothers and sisters, next-door neighbors. We are an idea of freedom and a secure future. We are anyone and everyone who is pissed off and wants to do something about it. Blurr.eth isn’t one man. It takes thousands of community members to make it work — content creators, educators, authors, people on the street, people behind their computers. We will step up again and again. Behind our mask, there is more than just flesh. Beneath our mask, there is an idea… and ideas are bulletproof. Everybody is a hero, a lover, a fool, a villain. The past can’t hurt you anymore, not unless you let it. I shall die here. Every last inch of me shall perish. Except one. An inch. It’s small, and it’s fragile, and it’s the only thing in the world worth having. We must never lose, sell, or give it away. We must never let them take it from us. > We are Blurr. > We are ReFund. > We do not Forgive. > We do not Forget. > We do not Televise. > We Educate. > We Decentralize. > We Build. EXPECT US. #Refund #DeFi #Crypto #RFD $RFDshow more

Conducting an EVA is a complex operation that requires... months of planning, choreographed technical checkouts, individual and group preparation, and distinct checkpoints. In the NASA world, we call this the “road to EVA,” or around here, simply “road to.” One of the events on the “road to” is the on-orbit fitcheck. Did you know we can grow up to 2 inches in space? While that is a pretty cool space fact, it's also a pretty big pain if you are the one responsible for ensuring the suits fit. So, after we have had some time on orbit to grow, we get in our suits and make any needed adjustments. We also take the time to translate around, check out the airlock, and handle tools and tethers – in this video, you will see us crawling around inside. While it is as fun as it looks, it's an important check to ensure we will not encounter issues when we crawl around outside. This is also a big day for our IVs, the two astronauts who will get us suited up. Their job is intense, as they run multiple procedures, all of which must be done perfectly and on time. 大西卓哉 （JAXA宇宙飛行士）Takuya Onishi is our suit IV for the upcoming EVA – he is like our quarterback in the airlock. He tells us when to arrive, and what to do next. Unlike other activities on Space Station, Nichole “Vapor” Ayers and I will not be looking at procedures inside the airlock or even when we are outside. We rely on Tak to get us out the door, where we will transition to talking to Marcos Berríos in Mission Control during the EVA. Things to look for in the video: Tak and Jonny Kim double checking one another, Nichole and I seeing if we can reach to fist bump, and Don Pettit making an appearance for some group photos.show more

As a mature adult, we should make a decision... when we face two or more options. Before we make decision, we can spend some time to question it and do a lot of research. But after we make decision, we must try our best to work on our goal and contribute to it. If we feel it is not going as we expected or we don't want to study how to improve it. We can make a decision to stop it instead of complaining. Because complaining cannot resolve anything. It will bring a lot of negative energy in our body. If we spread our complaint to the community or to put family or our colleagues , we can only let them feel we are very weak who always need attention and we are not a good person to cooperate or get along. When we in Pi Network, complaint cannot help but probably bring bad luck. If we don't like it, we have an option to quit it. But if we don't want to quit we should study and catch up! Community don't need a negative voice. Community need pioneers who knows what is appreciation and actively participate to empower Pi Network! Look at the following four videos. These pioneers are good examples! Pi Network #WhatIDoForPi #PiGCV #Pioneershow more

Today America roots for Norway, and I need you... to understand exactly why. We love an underdog. It is not a preference. It is a genetic condition. Two hundred and fifty-three years ago, a handful of colonials with no navy, no army, and no chance decided to throw a tea party in Boston Harbor to spite the largest empire the world had ever seen. An empire the sun never set on. An empire that could have ended us in an afternoon. And when the greatest military on earth said you cannot possibly do that, our answer was, and remains, hold my beer. Then we picked a fight we had no business winning. Then we declared ourselves free before we had actually won anything. Then we went out and made it true. We turned 250 last week. Still here. Still loud. That is the whole American operating system. The impossible odds. The comeback. The redemption. We do not just like that story, we are that story, and we will root for it anywhere we find it. It is why a bunch of college kids beating a Soviet hockey machine in 1980 still makes grown men cry in bars. So today. Norway. Five and a half million people. A country with more sheep than starting lineups. Playing England, a founding nation of the sport, on the biggest stage there is. Now let me be fair. We love England. Truly. Best ally we have got, and I say that with a full heart. Though the Japanese are gaining fast, so do not get comfortable. We love the Scots. We love the Northern Irish. We love our drunk cousins in Ireland, and yes I am lumping you all in, because half of you moved here anyway and you hate the English for reasons we are all familiar with. Nobody loves Wales. Nobody knows Wales exists. Nobody can understand a word of it. But I digress. Because today is not about any of that. Today is about five million Vikings walking into a stadium against an empire, with everyone on earth telling them they cannot possibly do this. You know exactly what we say to that. Let’s row!!!

When we were growing up, Meant To Live was... on repeat and as we began to make music The Beautiful Letdown was a significant influence on us as artists. Can’t believe we get to be a part of this project with Switchfoot. Thank you for not only being an inspiration to us but a supporter as well. This is a dream come true. Listen to our cover of The Beautiful Letdown… We hope you love it!show more

Love for humanity is the core of love for... life. It arises from the recognition of life’s value and beauty, from faith in humanity’s ability for greatness, and from the awareness that you are its child — and that it is dear and close to you. : The author places love for humanity at the heart of love for life itself. It springs from a clear recognition of life’s immense value and beauty, from an unwavering faith in humanity’s capacity for greatness, and from the intimate awareness that each person is humanity’s own child, bound to it by blood, spirit, and destiny. This love is not distant admiration. It is the quiet, fierce tenderness a child feels for the parent who gave it existence. Humanity is dear and close because it is the living source from which we draw breath, meaning, and possibility. To love life is to love the collective that carries it forward. To doubt humanity is to doubt life’s own worth. When we see ourselves as its children, gratitude replaces judgment. Hope replaces despair. Love for humanity becomes the deepest form of self-love, because we are not separate from it. It is the recognition that every stranger carries a piece of the same miracle we carry in ourselves. That recognition turns strangers into kin, and the world into home.show more

Do you know why I love Barcelona? Because only... in Barcelona can you stumble into all of this in one single Saturday. We started at Palau de la Música Catalana for Madama Butterfly. It's the only concert hall in Europe lit completely by daylight, through a stained glass dome built in 1908. After we walked outside, we noticed a big gathering of people, so we headed to see what was going on. A helicopter was circling the Cathedral square, dropping thousands of small poems out of the sky. Half written by Catalan poets, half by Chilean ones. I didn't know what it was at the time, but I researched it after, and it's a one-time art project called "Bombardeig de Poemes," marking 50 years since the end of the Franco dictatorship. Then, a few streets over, we found the Kiss mural. From far away, it's two people kissing. Up close, it's 4,000 individual photo tiles, each one sent in by a local back in 2014. Had no idea what it was, but apparently it's one of the most photographed spots in the city. Finally, ended the night at the Magic Fountain in Montjuïc. Built in 1929, it's free every night it runs. None of this was planned. We didn't look any of it up beforehand, we just walked into it. That's also the annoying part, you can't plan a day like this. This is why I'll never get tired of this city.show more

Making smart glasses frames was way harder than I... thought. Here's what I learned: Materials matter. You can't use normal plastic, because it has to be light and safe to touch your face So we chose TR90 plastic that's made for eyewear Fake gray-market TR90 plastic is common in China. You gotta go to the source and make sure your TR90 is legit Glue is so important. If you put too much glue it will give issues, and add weight. Too little glue, won't stick. That's why it's better for a robot to do it (VIDEO) If the glue doesn't match the material perfectly, then it won't stick. So we tried like 4 glues to get the best one for our smart glasses You design the frame in 3D and then make a tool. A tool is just a metal mold that is shaped like the glasses. You put a bunch of melted plastic (TR90) in the tool, let it cool, and out pops the glasses frame. Do that 10,000 times Tooling leaves seams in the frame, so we figured out where to put the seam so it doesn't cut into your ear when you wear it Obviously this all must be super lightweight because the electronics are heavy The camera needs a certain perspective, so the glasses frame angles the camera down to capture hands in videos Throughout the design process, you can't sacrifice style And now our Mentra Live frames are bornshow more

Dear Africans. I know you think we are cowards.... You think we have allowed Mnangagwa to rule with impunity. This is is what we face. We have been facing this for the past 45 years. The problem is, we have been doing it peacefully but met with live bullets. SADC & AU are OK with us being killed. A time will come when we are going to pick matchets and guns and chop each other like what happened in Rwanda. SADC and AU will condemn us as barbarians. Millions of us have left our country not because we desire to be in your countries. We cannot live under this perpetual suffocation. Now we see that South Africans are tired of us. We don't want to be in your countries. We want to be in Zimbabwe. We have asked your presidents to restrain this rabid junta led by Mnangagwa but none of them has tried. We tried elections and we all saw what happened. We are at the end of out wits. and about to snap. If any of you can convince your governments to give us guns and a forest, you will see that we are not cowards.show more

As part of our ninth anniversary celebration—and as our... own special way of supporting Donny’s newest project—we lit up the biggest and most iconic EDSA Orense LED Billboard for ROJA. This moment is a true milestone for our fanmily. For the very first time, we were able to bring to life one of our biggest dreams: creating an LED billboard project dedicated to Donny. Something that once felt impossible is now shining proudly along EDSA. This dream wouldn’t have become reality without the love and support of our members and generous sponsors. Thank you so much to everyone who believed, contributed, and helped us push through. Your dedication and unity made this project possible. We would also like to extend our heartfelt gratitude to ABS-CBN and Dreamscape for their support in making this LED Billboard Project happen. It may be just one LED billboard to others… but to us, it represents nine years of passion, teamwork, and unwavering love. To us, it is a dream come true. And to Donny — we hope you love this anniversary gift we poured our hearts into. Always remember that your Donators PH FanMily will be here for you… always, in all ways. 💙 #DonatorsPH #DonnyPangilinan Donny DreamscapePH ABS-CBN Entertainmentshow more

And just like that… ‘HIT ME HARD AND SOFT:... The Tour’ has officially come to a close after 106 unforgettable shows. We’re feeling overwhelmed with gratitude, replaying a million memories in our heads, and trying to find the words to express how much this entire tour has meant to us. First, to every single person who ever sent us a concert video, a clip, a moment, or a tiny piece of your experience: thank you. You helped us bring this tour to people who couldn’t be there in person, and because of you, thousands of fans around the world got to feel a little closer, a little more connected, and a little more included. We truly couldn’t have done any of this without your generosity and love. To Billie and her incredible team: thank you for crafting a show that felt like magic every single night. The passion, artistry, and heart you put into this tour truly touched people in ways that will stay with them forever. Watching this tour unfold city by city has been an honor, and we’re endlessly grateful we were able to see it in person. And lastly, but so deeply, to all of YOU. This community has become more than we ever imagined it could be. Your support, kindness, excitement, and trust have turned this into something truly beautiful. Even during the nights we barely slept, posting videos until the sun came up, we never once forgot how lucky we are to share this space with all of you. Being able to do this for an entire tour, and to feel your energy every step of the way, has meant everything to us! This page exists exactly because of that. We don’t know exactly what the future holds, but we can promise you this: we’re not going anywhere. As long as Billie keeps touring and honestly, even beyond that we hope to be right here with you, creating, sharing, and celebrating together. We can’t wait for the next chapter, the next show, the next era. All of it. And we hope you’ll stay with us for many more tours to come. Thank you for the memories. Thank you for the love. Thank you for making this community feel like home. Sending each and every one of you so much love, always.show more

As ferry pilots, we often fly 20-25 hours across... long distances and frequently need to service the engine oil enroute. Especially so with the more tired engines. Turbine oil comes in cans, and since we have to go through security to get to a job, we don’t have tools. Fortunately the on-board crash axe is the PERFECT tool for the job. If you put one finger over the top hole, and move swiftly and smoothly into position and then release your finger - you can pretty easily hit the filler tube with little to no spillage 👍🏼 Unfortunately it’s not possible to do while also filming, so you’ll see no evidence of my (ahem) “perfect pour”show more
