<p>There's a third case that I never considered.<p>Google SSO is the promoted way of signing in and it auto assigns your email to the username without any special characters so scammers could just be scraping new accounts and making a best guess at the email.<p>Lame.</p>

<p>Browsing for an obscure piece of electronics, I ran across a Poshmark listing that had it for considerably cheaper than anywhere else.<p>I didn't have an account yet, so I signed up with Google SSO and was able to place the order.<p>About an hour later I got an email as if I was the seller telling me to click this link to verify my account for my funds to be deposited.<p>Obviously phishing. Upon closer inspection, I had two earlier that were properly filtered to spam that were about 30 minutes after the order.<p>So the question here is what part of their system is so fundamentally broken that scammers instantly get my email? Does the seller get that upon me making that purchase?<p>And if that's not the case, then that means somebody has completely compromised their system.</p>

<p>I wouldn't say high resolution, but you can get away with some scans with Android.<p>There are options but the devices are limited (and the applications too)<p>Samsung S20 series are the last to have it (And I think the Plus is the best one for it)<p>Going a little older the Note 10 Plus as well (also an awesome phone)<p>Of the same vintage there are some other devices. You have to look at the ARCore device list and Ctrl F for "ToF" <a href="https://developers.google.com/ar/devices" rel="nofollow">https://developers.google.com/ar/devices</a><p>As for applications that can take advantage of the ARCore depth mapping there's RTAB-Map and 3D Live Scanner<p><a href="https://github.com/introlab/rtabmap/releases/tag/0.21.4">https://github.com/introlab/rtabmap/releases/tag/0.21.4</a> (You'd want the android30 build)<p><a href="https://github.com/lvonasek/3DLiveScanner/releases/tag/v2022">https://github.com/lvonasek/3DLiveScanner/releases/tag/v2022</a><p>RTAB-Map is more fleshed out, but has a bit of a learning curve. By far my preferred way of capturing a scan. Be sure to set the values up a little as the defaults are fairly reserved.<p>3DLiveScanner is more a shoot and done. You capture and it exports all in one with minimal settings to tweak. This was my go to forever before realizing RTAB-Map had builds that worked. It's very capabale for that it is and can get some really good scans setting the res to 2 or 1 cm.<p>Sample from the S20 Plus <a href="https://sketchfab.com/3d-models/polygonal-printer-f2855acc08ce491a872fda7e6d4659e1" rel="nofollow">https://sketchfab.com/3d-models/polygonal-printer-f2855acc08...</a><p><a href="https://sketchfab.com/3d-models/truck-in-the-bush-c2f9c1842e7f44cc9532e009e3821dd6" rel="nofollow">https://sketchfab.com/3d-models/truck-in-the-bush-c2f9c1842e...</a><p><a href="https://sketchfab.com/3d-models/3doggo-and-a-catscan-79f1f12f159a4db9bbee52197d7b1d09" rel="nofollow">https://sketchfab.com/3d-models/3doggo-and-a-catscan-79f1f12...</a><p>Note 10 Plus was a big rougher but I don't know if I had found the size setting at that point <a href="https://sketchfab.com/3d-models/house-dd80af1455c74874951953eb5865e393" rel="nofollow">https://sketchfab.com/3d-models/house-dd80af1455c74874951953...</a><p>As far as I'm aware there's nothing on the Android side slated to contain a ToF depth sensor.<p>Note: If you have a decent Android at the moment, ARCore by itself with dual cameras does surprisingly well for what it is.<p>Both of those applications will still do live on device scanning with only RGB cameras. 3DLiveScanner will just work if you want to try it.<p>RTAB-Map you have to go to Settings > Mapping > check Depth from Motion and then on the main screen very first item make sure ARCore NDK is set as the driver (See note above about tweaking the capture settings). The live scan will look a bit rough but if you capture as much detail as you can and let it process, results turn out much better after the processing.</p>

<p>The air mouse is the defining feature of WebOS... It's a slight side to side shake to enable it and then once you get used to the controls it is much better than navigating via arrow keys.</p>
