@essentialrandom do you mean OCR or extract embedded text in the image headers
(if the former, i think open-source OCR is kind of bulky and unreliable but web APIs for interacting with browser- or operating system-provided OCR may be coming!)
(if the latter, yes i believe it's just a matter of undoing the compression and reading the correct image headers, both of which should be pretty fast operations especially in WASM. if the headers are at the beginning of the image you could potentially do it while the rest was still downloading.)
@Satsuma @essentialrandom i mean it's still reasonable to:
• attach the metadata to the image in addition to sending just the metadata over the API, and
• autofill the image description when uploading an image with existing metadata
but nobody really does that
this isn’t entirely true but the new growth (including this mastodon instance) has felt more like a stubborn weed pushing up through the asphalt than anything
which is definitely a form of new life, and a necessary one, but it doesn’t make it any less depressing to see the gardens shrivel and decay
“it feels like things keep dying but nothing new has grown for years”
@essentialrandom my feeling is that editing XMP tags on images is something that does not have broad open-source/library support, and it's less web friendly (since you have to download the image before processing the metadata instead of getting the metadata first and then the image) so you won't see it in APIs over the internet
@essentialrandom it can be done and apparently is/has widely been done per Wikipedia:
« Although IIM was intended for use with all types of news items — including simple text articles — a subset found broad worldwide acceptance as the standard embedded metadata used by news and commercial photographers. Information such as the name of the photographer, copyright information and the caption or other description can be embedded either manually or automatically.
[…]
Because of its nearly universal acceptance among photographers — even amateurs — this is by far IPTC's most widely used standard. On the other hand, the use of IIM structure and metadata for text and graphics is mainly limited to European news agencies. » https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPTC_Information_Interchange_Model
(the more contemporary XMP-based standard: <https://iptc.org/std/photometadata/specification/IPTC-PhotoMetadata-2022.1.html>)
i need a way to organize my reading list i think
YOU CAN’T JUST ANIMATE ALL PRINCESS CHARACTERS THE SAME WAY
PRINCESSES ARE NON-FUNGIBLE
i watched the mario movie trailer and i cannot stress how much they did not get this character right
they animated her like daisy
wait what the fuck did they do to princess peach
@coriander that’s a mood
@gaditb oof and they’re paying him for this??
this paragraph could have been a footnote
@aescling if you burn food it’s important to cook it until it is no longer burned
remember when that one author who definitely has not made any meaningful or substantial contributions to the English canon put a list of Zelda ingredients in his historical fiction novel
@Satsuma sounds like my kind of fic
