Even worse, sometimes it dubs ads, where there's no way to switch the audio track and no way to see if it's being dubbed. This also makes it look like the dubbed audio is the original audio from the ad, which makes the advertiser look terrible.

Another (more useful) option is to render an animation in Blender, or run a local LLM.

What about a global toggle to switch between the AI summaries and article snippets?

I believe that at least app-store apps are already ran in some sort of sandbox.

One could record from the microphone and then transmit via RF side channel.

If they can detect the faint signal of a heartbeat from so far away, why not instead deliberately transmit a weak, wider-bandwidth pseudorandom magnetic signal? Such a signal would be even harder to detect than a heartbeat without prior knowledge, yet easier to identify and track using a matched filter.

I looked into youtube's search filters recently, and the length range option is stored as an enum (stored as base64-encoded protobuf in the sp query parameter), so it doesn't look like it's possible to set to specific values.

Some of the descriptions are a little vague, eg. "GeoPlaner provides capabilities for geospatial analysis, map verification, and location intelligence."

For reference, the 4-bit PSRAM interface on the ESP32-S3 normally runs at 80 MHz (maximum 120 MHz) and shares bandwidth with the external flash.

I wonder if it will be possible to (ab)use the faster PSRAM interface on the ESP32-S31 as a general purpose 8-bit parallel interface, eg. for ADCs...

It looks like that's just a generic error message. For me, this websocket message is received when the error appears:

I wonder if the temporal noise reduction (evident in the video clips) is being applied before integrating the frames to create the thumbnails.
