According to the site's banner announcement, "As a result of a server migration project, any photos, videos, and audio files you uploaded more than three years ago, may no longer be available on or from MySpace." Some estimate nearly 50 million songs from 2003 to 2015 have been lost. According to MySpace users on Reddit, all pre-2015 music stopped working about a year ago.
MySpace lost 12 years of user content

People can sense Earth’s magnetic field, brain waves suggest.
"With this first compelling evidence that humans are subconsciously processing magnetic signals. It’s kind of intriguing to think that we have a sense of which we’re not consciously aware."

Fitzroy Falls, Morton National Park
Detail of lower plunge, from the West Rim trek. The upper plunge was shrouded in mist. Heavy rain left a slight brown stain in some parts of the fall.
More images: www.silenttheory.net
The upper plunge almost looks like a long exposure shot (it is not), probably a combination of the high flow, the speed of the water near the base and misting. The contrast in internal water flow detail in comparison with the second plunge detail is noticeable.
Image: When i originally processed this scene i processed as a HDR. I thought that the lower parts of the image may have benefitted from slight dehazing, but i have left as is to emphasise the drift of the mist. This time i have processed a single image and slightly dehazed it.

Did Microsoft Fake xCloud Video To Leapfrog Google Game Streaming?
Tomorrow, Google will unveil the fruits of its Project Stream test, which began late last year and concluded in January of this year: a video game streaming service positioned as a 'Netflix for games'. This will, in theory, allow people to play graphic intensive games from nearly any modern computing device with a fast enough internet connection. The actual processing of the game is done by cloud servers, thereby freeing up the local device to merely receive a visual gameplay stream and control it through local inputs.
Having participated in Project Stream by playing Assassin's Creed: Odyssey from a cheap ASUS Chromebook (the C201PA), on a fast cable home internet connection, I can attest that the service works well on minimal hardware and with a not-unattainable-for-consumers home internet connection speed. Even with other devices in the house streaming video and connecting to Xbox for multiplayer gaming, the streamed game ran lag free and with no input latency. And this was achieved on a device that can't even stream Sony Playstation games from the Internet Archive, due to its cheap hardware profile.
Google is not alone in trying to disrupt the game market with cloud powered gaming: Microsoft showed off their own xCloud service exactly one week before Google will debut theirs. Given Microsoft's advantage in this market, if they released on the same timeline as Google they would likely win over more users.
However, not only will Microsoft only begin testing the service later this year, well after Google's testing has already concluded, but there's another problem: the video they released teasing the service, which showed Forza being played on a smartphone, appears to have been faked. Specifically, the host button presses in the video don't seem to line up with the on screen gameplay. This may mean that the demonstration was really a simulation, possibly with a prestreamed game imperfectly synced up with the actions of the Live player.
The other possibility, which would be even more damning for Microsoft, is that the mismatch resulted from a significant input lag, which is precisely what a game streaming service can't afford. Even the aforementioned Internet Archive manages a substantially lag-free experience, and their service is free, albeit also highly limited in many ways. And, again, my experience of Project Stream was almost miraculously lag free, so Google is already nailing this point.
In the final analysis, Microsoft still does enjoy a tremendous platform advantage, but they will need to move quickly not to fall behind. This is especially true given that game streaming will potentially appeal to gamers who haven't already committed to a console and don't have a powerful enough PC, especially those who cannot afford either. The economics-of-scale allowed by game streaming will likely result in lower costs-per-game, just as one may stream the equivalent of thousands and thousands of DVD shows and movies for the cost of a Netflix or Hulu account.
Ironically, their Xbox platform may also be hindering Microsoft in ensuring prime placement in game streaming, by requiring them to continue to invest substantial resources in console development for a market that will soon be disrupted, and even to worry about self-cannibalization if they succeed in one at the expense of the other, i.e. a classic Innovator's Dilemma.
Google, on the other hand, has no other gaming platform to worry about unless one generously counts Android as a Google gaming platform, and thus nothing to lose and everything to gain by gaining by getting out ahead on this. This does not guarantee that they will win, of course, but it is positioning them for the best chance they've ever had of a foothold in the largest entertainment market.

It can be wise to secure your Android phone with antivirus software, but which ones can you count on? You can rule out most of them, apparently. AV-Comparatives has tested 250 antivirus apps for Google's platform, and only 80 of them (just under one third) passed the site's basic standards -- that is, they detected more than 30 percent of malicious apps from 2018 and had zero false positives.

I am very sad to hear +Uwe Duwe passed away. He was one of my inspirations with his wonderful self portraits, his bokehlicios still lifes, his #ohrwurmmondays and his generous and humorous nature. You will be missed!
(And in a way I still hope this is a big misunderstanding and he will show up with a selfie, holding a smoking a cigarette between his fingers, just shaking his head.)

Rain at Last
This was a from a while back when had some significant rain. Finally, after 3 months without any rain, the heavens have finally opened and it's turning green here again. Sadly, just a few kilometres from here and it's still bone dry, the drought isn't giving up yet.

Something is Pushing the Milky Way Through the Universe at 1.2 million mph
You can’t feel it, but our planet is orbiting the Sun at speeds of roughly 100,000 km/h (62,000 mph), and something is making our Milky Way galaxy move through the Universe at more than 2 million km/h (1.2 million mph).
