Facebook Can Now Recognize You in Photos Even If Your Face Is Covered
Can someone tell Facebook no one’s impressed when they debut a feature that reminds us JUST how creepy and invasive they are?
They just started testing a new tool that can recognize and tag you in photos even if your face isn’t showing. It works by learning other things about how you look . . . like your hair style, your clothes, your body shape, and your usual poses.
It’s been about 83% accurate in tests so far . . . and there’s no word on when it could become standard across Facebook. (New Scientist)
President Obama Said the N-Word
PRESIDENT OBAMA said the N-word on comedian MARC MARON’s “WTF” podcast. They were talking about the church shooting in Charleston, and racism in America in general, so it fit the context of the conversation.
Still, it was kind of shocking to hear. He said, quote, “It is incontrovertible that race relations have improved significantly in my lifetime and yours, and that opportunities have opened up, and that attitudes have changed. That is a fact.
“What is also true is that the legacy of slavery, Jim Crow, discrimination in almost every institution of our lives, that casts a long shadow. And that’s still part of our DNA that’s passed on. We’re not cured of it.
“It’s not just a matter of it not being polite to say [the N-word] in public. That’s not the measure of whether racism still exists or not. It’s not just a matter of overt discrimination.” (Check it out here. WARNING!!! The N-word is not censored.)
As the website GlobalPost.com notes, Obama isn’t the first president to use that word. And that’s even if you don’t count the presidents who actually OWNED SLAVES. But he IS the first one to use it with good reason.
(On a lighter note, Obama named his favorite comedians: Richard Pryor, Dick Gregory, Jerry Seinfeld, and Louis C.K.)
(NC-17) A New Type of Women’s Underwear Eliminates Camel Toe
It’s good to see our country’s scientific resources devoted to the really important issues. Like, say, hiding the outline of your LADY PARTS.
A woman named Maggie Han just released a new line of underwear specifically designed to eliminate CAMEL TOE. And she’s not being subtle about it . . . the brand is called “Camel No.”
She uses medical grade silicone to make the underwear. Quote, “The same [stuff] used for breast enhancements. It won’t bunch. It takes the temperature of your body. And when you sweat it won’t create a smell.”
If the underwear is a success, she could expand to other clothes like yoga pants and skinny jeans.
She’s taking preorders right now at her website, SeamlessThread.com. One pair costs between $26 and $30 . . . but there’s no word on when she’ll be shipping them. (Mashable)
