Podcasts about beautygate

Neste episódio questionamo-nos sobre a utilização dos filtros nas redes sociais. O que nos faz querer usar um filtro para modificar a nossa aparência? Se todos usarem filtros, afinal, o que resta da realidade? Falamos das pressões para ter uma pele imaculada e até do não-tão-inofensivo filtro "Paris".

Another rich vein of news ore has been discovered on the mining colony Technopolis, cadets, but there's at least one strike that turned out to be fool's gold. Bloomberg had a two-year story blow up in their faces for numerous factual errors and jumping to conclusions, Microsoft brought out some sweet gear with the pricetag decimal in the wrong place, Samsung's main profits turn out to be from Apple, and speaking of Apple ... is their attempt to further lock down repairs to authorized service centers a good or bad thing? Mike and Charles also pass on a couple of PSAs about fixing a charging problem and a caution about the latest Windows 10 update (particularly for you Boot Camp users); marvel at the desktop-class benchmarks of the A12 Bionic; express some skepticism about Verizon's "5G," Uniloc's latest troll suit, Consumer Reports' ever-changing opinion on iPhone XS battery life, and Australia's blinkered attempt to mandate backdoors in smartphones. Raspberries are also handed out to the cable and ISP groups (and the Justice Department) for opposing California's net neutrality law, LTE speed "tests," and Kanye West's unhinged tweets. Also on the show this week: some iPhone XS teething issues, forced FaceID unlocking, Amazon's Fire Stick, HomePods launching in Spain and Mexico, "Beautygate" explained, Woz woes, Engineering Report, an electrical plug with a light in it and so much more. When you're working the tech salt mines, cadets, remember to take precautions against Space Gray Lung Disease!

Spoiler Alert: Apple isn’t applying a beauty filter to your iPhone XS selfies. I’ve covered this in both my initial review and my 3-weeks-later review, but that particularly bad bit of intel just keeps making the rounds, so I wanted to do proper video and a real explainer to lay it to rest once and for all. BeautyGate or #SmoothSelfieGate began as most quote-unquote gates do: A combination of people with legitimate questions and concerns and those who are super eager to amplify anything they can in order to get attention, even and especially if it does nothing to answer those questions or address those concerns. Add internet and… wildfire. But, if you dig into why people are concerned and you go beyond those who’s sole intent is to sensationalize, you get to something truly fascinating: The ongoing evolution for camera system to computational photography system.

Nuevo episodio de nuestro Unplugged! Noticias frescas, la mejor cámara de 2018 según DXOMark y las series que estamos viendo!

This week: BeautyGate—what it is, and why it’s undoubtedly the dumbest “gate” in the history of iPhone.  Plus: how have we liked our one week with Apple Watch 4 and iPhone XS?  WE’LL TELL YOU.  And the shockingly low production price of the XS Max proves the deadbeats at Apple owe us more storage space!   This episode supported by   A business is only as strong as its people, and every hire matters… go to LinkedIn.com/cultcast and get a $50 credit toward your first job post.   CultCloth will keep your iPhone X, Apple Watch, Mac and iPad sparkling clean, and for a limited time use code CULTCAST at checkout to score a free CleanCloth with any order at CultCloth.co.   Thanks to Kevin McLeodfor the music you hear on today’s episode.   On the show this week @erfon / @lkahney / @lewiswallace /@bst3r   Imagine a place where you can slip into your silk robe, fez, and enjoy the company and fellowship of other CultCast listeners and tech enthusiasts.    A club, if you will.  A Cult Club. https://discord.gg/DbKApv   iPhone XS Max: A condensed review https://www.cultofmac.com/579035/iphone-xs-max-review-condensed/   iPhone XS Max is fast, fast, fast   Everything is very fast and responsive. Apps spring right open. Photos scroll without delay. Maps render without a hiccup. Everything is basically instantaneous, and it’s a joy. It’s all thanks to the A12 Bionic chip. Apple is so far ahead in mobile chips, it’s head-spinning. One benchmark shows the iPhone XS is faster than the new iMac Pro, a $5,000-plus pro workstation!   It’s definitely not too big For such big phone, it doesn’t feel too big. Having used an X all last year, and liking it, I thought the Max would be too big. But it doesn’t feel as big as the old Plus iPhones used to iPhone XS Max camera   The camera is excellent  Especially the new Portrait mode with advanced bokeh and Depth Control. The Max is less a phone, and more an advanced, near-DSLR camera with a cellular connection.   The big screen is amazing The screen is so big and clear, there’s no need to take your laptop or iPad on flights any more. The Max will do nicely.   It deserves to be caseless Despite dropping my old iPhone X numerous times, it has just a few scuffs and no cracked screen (it was, however, often in a case). But this time, because the Max is so thin, I’m going to try it caseless for a while. I’d like to enjoy Apple’s design for a change, without a bulky wrapping. (I know; I may regret this later.)   iPhone XS selfie cam is so beautiful it spawned an ugly conspiracy theory https://www.cultofmac.com/579503/iphone-selfies-xs/ The iPhone XS and its front-facing camera are supposed to help its owners make better self-portraits. However, some think their iPhone selfies look better than they should Lewis Helsenteger, aka Unboxing Therapy, is calling it beautygate Users are taking to internet forums like Reddit to question whether Apple added an undisclosed beauty filter to the front-facing camera on the iPhone XS and XS Max. Some are even posting side-by-side selfies taken with an XS and older handset to make a case that the newest iPhone has more than deeper pixels and an improved portrait mode going for it.   iPhone XS Max production cost is shockingly low https://www.cultofmac.com/579177/iphone-xs-max-production-cost-bill-materials-bom/ Analysis firm TechInsights did a teardown of the an iPhone XS Max with 256GB of storage. That’s reportedly the most popular version of Apple’s best selling handset. As part of its teardown, TechInsights estimated the cost for each component. The total? $443 Compared to the $1249 price tag for the product. So just 35 percent of the purchase price goes to pay for the actual hardware. Of course, the remaining $806 isn’t pure profit. The bill of materials (BoM) doesn’t cover Apple’s employee salaries, advertising, and other costs. Also, the BoM doesn’t include software, and iPhone and iPad sales have to cover the cost of developing iOS and its bundled software.
