[-] BaronVonBort@lemmy.world 51 points 1 year ago

You get the dress but have to subscribe to Dress Cloud for $50/mo and if you decide to discontinue it the dress randomly turns into a 90s era WB shirt and locks itself that way until you re-up

[-] Bogasse@lemmy.ml 18 points 1 year ago

If you subscribe for a whole year it only costs 599$ !

[-] dingleberry@discuss.tchncs.de 109 points 1 year ago

Adobe: Pay $1699 yearly subscription or it will go transparent.

[-] Agent641@lemmy.world 41 points 1 year ago

Me, hacking Adobe and cancelling all subscriptions during the oscars: "You're welcome"

[-] CatZoomies@lemmy.world 95 points 1 year ago

That’s a cute dress. If I pirate it, will I get a Creative Cloud warning pop up when it dials home?

[-] Kerrigor@kbin.social 48 points 1 year ago

You have to subscribe or else it just goes transparent.

[-] NeoNachtwaechter@lemmy.world 16 points 1 year ago

How can I cancel her subscription?

[-] deleted@lemmy.world 14 points 1 year ago

CC.exe has stopped working.

Just update your host file so it can't connect to adobe.com

"Hurry up, we're gonna be late for our reservation."

"Hold on, my dress has to install an update!"

[-] netburnr@lemmy.world 66 points 1 year ago

I will wait until the gimp version is released

[-] bingbong@lemmy.dbzer0.com 13 points 1 year ago

( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

[-] reflex@kbin.social 58 points 1 year ago

They gonna release an ad-supported version to turn you into a walking billboard?

[-] ansis@lemmy.world 32 points 1 year ago

Is it gold or blue I can't tell

This article desperately needs video.

Here's the official video from Adobe. Bump to 45s into the vid to see the dress in action:

[-] figaro@lemdro.id 9 points 1 year ago

Honestly lol what kind of absurd article doesn't include the video

[-] QHC@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

That video is included in the article, it's just at the very bottom for some reason.

[-] PipedLinkBot@feddit.rocks 5 points 1 year ago

Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

you know you are talking to an engineer when they say

Non-emissive material with reflective light-diffuser modules

instead of "mirrors"

[-] huginn@feddit.it 7 points 1 year ago

I believe most mirrors can't turn their reflectivity on and off based on an electric current.

I could be totally wrong about mirrors though

[-] leftzero@lemmy.ml 6 points 1 year ago

You just haven't turned the current high enough.

[-] AnUnusualRelic@lemmy.world 21 points 1 year ago

Still no pockets though.

[-] CuddlyCassowary@lemmy.world 19 points 1 year ago

And you can totally just throw it in the washing machine, right?

[-] evidences@lemmy.world 13 points 1 year ago

Dry clean only of course

[-] Gregorech@lemmy.world 18 points 1 year ago

It's like the dress Rorschach made his mask from in Watchmen.

For some reason I’m not super impressed with this. Looks too much like you’re wearing e-ink panels. Call me when these are fully functioning OLEDs that kinetically charge when you walk.

[-] just_another_person@lemmy.world 15 points 1 year ago

Each one of those scales operates as an independent display, and coordinating them is quite a challenge. I'd be interested in knowing what is driving them, because it's surely not very portable.

[-] Petter1@lemm.ee 4 points 1 year ago

Powerbank backpack lol I guess you could go pretty small with hardware in these ARM days comming

[-] AnAngryAlpaca@feddit.de 6 points 1 year ago

EInk and monochrome LCD Type Displays need very low power, because you only need a tiny bit to switch them from one side to the other, but none to keep it black or white.

OMG she's wearing the same dress she wore last week! She just changed the design!

[-] nothing@lemm.ee 13 points 1 year ago

And why do you want this?

Or was this a "We can build it so we did"?

[-] gregorum@lemm.ee 23 points 1 year ago

Because it’s awesome and also yes.

[-] ripcord@kbin.social 20 points 1 year ago

I miss when everyone wasn't super pessimistic about absolutely everything and it was ok to do things for these reasons

Reminds me of the book The Diamond Age, where the clothes used nanotech to transform and become waterproof etc.
