More likely it’s doing what Amazon has made it do. So, probably audio recordings and any other sensor data and metrics they can gather
I agree this is likely the culprit. Having read the article though, he seems “sure it’s not spying”.
Now that I’ve read it, my question stands.
The guy reporting the issue is a pretty well respected tech YouTuber who helped invent Microsoft Task Manager, so I feel like he’d know to check for that, but it was never explicitly mentioned.
Hopefully he figures it out and does a follow up, I’m curious now.
is this an Echo issue or are these people unwitting members of a botnet?
Disclaimer: Commenting before I’ve read the article.
I see, so it’s sort of a blend in that they’re no longer using paper and (i imagine, I’m not an animator) some sort of stop motion process, but doing the same thing with a tablet.
That’s pretty cool. Still, as an animation consumer who is rather uneducated in the hows of animation, it seems like 3D animation could be done in a very similar way?
I apologize though, I think I’m just being a pedant about what “hand drawn” means when the article seemed to be more of an argument pushing for 2D over 3D animation. As a consumer I think the concept of “hand drawn” is really cool, however whether computer aided or not, I think as long as the end result is a good animation with a good story, I’m happy in the end. And, I’ll say I’m happy to see 2D animation making a comeback!
the elastic is stretchy enough i just stick it in my waistband if I’m home in my undies and for some reason can’t just use my hand to hold it or put it on a surface of some kind.
I dated a girl once who was amazed by the “pocket” in my boxer-briefs until she found it it was actually just the weird hole thing they put in the front that acts as a fly.
honestly, among other things, they say things like “cope and seethe” lmao
I get that you were being satirical but it didn’t translate well to me either haha
This is coming from a place of ignorance, but are these “hand drawn” animations actually hand drawn or is this just a new way to say 2D animation? It was my impression that by now, even 2D things are put together mostly on a computer and not any more “hand drawn” than an initial sketch up of a 3D character. In other words, I find it hard to believe people are still using tracing paper to hand draw these movies frame by frame. I’m happy to be wrong here, though.
I’m pretty sure for most of them you just type update and it will update.
Weird way to spell “How automated DMCA take-down requests are ruining the internet for everyone”
Yeah, and I’m considerably new to the field. Not unskilled but like entry level new, as far as professional tech experience goes. I was trying to change careers from business degree / accountant when I was laid off.
Really trying not to go back to accounting as it was mind numbingly boring.
I’m just gonna keep trying until something gives and have fun learning more in the process.
I am in the same boat. Can’t even get an interview it seems.

It used to be much worse. I remember being excluded from group chats in high school because of the color of the chat bubble for android was different or some shit lol
