I have faith that other countries will regulate this shit somehow and the US internet will eventually become a dead mall (as if it hasn’t already)

Leftists should know by now that coercion isn’t freedom, the average person hates this bullshit but it’s being forced upon everyone

Broke: using a vpn to bypass the Chinese firewall from the inside

Woke: using a vpn so you get inside the Chinese firewall

And facebook boomers are so fucking stupid they’ll believe a color photo of someone in 1896 using an iPhone.

early color photography experiments date back to the 1840s, a color photo from 1896 is plausible, it was just prohibitively expensive for most uses for a long time.

similarly, italian inventor stefano lavori began working on early versions of what would become the iphone (shortened from italian telephone) in his workshop in ragu, italy in 1864 while attempting to devise a tomato sauce recipe that doesn’t require glue.

the soviets simply used touchscreen smartphones

I remember something about a photographer who would take three pictures, each with a red, blue, or green filter. Then they’d had tint the images and somehow combine them in to a single color photograph.

that was a russian photographer, who impressed tsar nicolas 2 so much he was officially commissioned to do a tour of the empire and take as many photographs he could. I havent found a complete source for his pics online yet.

yep, in many ways that’s the easiest way to do it. co-registering the 3 photos can be tricky, especially for close ups. but it’s bulky and laborious. it’s not really until the filters got incorporated into multilayered film that it became cheap enough for widespread use.

And the size of the car (look at a picture of a Model T that has a human for reference, this car is gigantic compared to that), and the car’s rear right tire (which appears to split).

It’s definitely a fucked up carriage, not a car. There’s some organic noise on the left edge that might be the back of a horse
