Apple opts everyone into having their Photos analyzed by AI

Homomorphic-based Enhanced Visual Search is so privacy-preserving, iPhone giant activated it without asking

theregister.com

Oh _lovely_. Everyone go turn this off:

Enhanced Visual Search in Photos allows you to search for photos using landmarks or points of interest. Your device privately matches places in your photos to a global index Apple maintains on our servers. We apply homomorphic encryption and differential privacy, and use an OHTTP relay that hides [your] IP address. This prevents Apple from learning about the information in your photos. You can turn off Enhanced Visual Search at any time on your iOS or iPadOS device by going to Settings > Apps > Photos. On Mac, open Photos and go to Settings > General.

Disabling this is easy on iPhone: go to settings > apps > photos, and scroll all the way down to the bottom.

A question about the episode Eclipse has reached this blog from the ether! This week’s question is:

Why does Ray Kowalski have a giant shamrock on his fridge?

Remember, kids: there are no wrong answers except “Ray’s apartment is a dump” and “Kowalski is an Irish name”. At least one person (me) will find your idea interesting, though I’m willing to gamble (not with money, mind you) that I won’t be the only one. If you’re shy, try sending your response as an anonymous ask for me to publish!

I found the bar in Chicago that has this shamrock. I think it’s an exact match.

It might be from Harrigan’s. Maybe he did some karaoke and had a great night he wanted to remember 💚

OK

That bar became Harrigan’s in 1988 per their web site

When that neighborhood was the heart of Boystown in Chicago - which I can say from personal experience, because my first (shitty) boyfriend lived literally half a block from there in the middle of Diversey Ave between Halsted & Clark/Broadway, with his parents & younger sister

There was a video arcade we used to go to (next to a peep show…) on Broadway like 5 doors down from the corner of Diversey & Broadway

Down the street, straight East on Diversey by Pine Grove, was another Irish bar, Duffy’s - I think it’s still there

On Clark just South of Diversey was a tranny bar called Cheeks & a gay bar called Touché

The point is, this was the heart of gay Chicago in 1988

Though it could be skeezy, I always felt safe because of all the gay guys around

Don’t know about you guys, but this is sure helping me build headcanon!

🙂

The plot thickens! I just looked it up on the map and it’s indeed surrounded by gay bars.

it’s time to create a fake distinction between squashed and squished where one of them is along a horizontal plane and one of them is along a vertical one and seeing how far i can take it

squished is the vertical one. and a helpful mnemonic is that i is a very narrow letter. because it got squished
