🧵Dalton Mills, Keighley. Built in the 1860s it was once one of the largest textile mills in Yorkshire. Sadly, it was destroyed by fire in 2022.

“Companies have started incorporating “adversarial patterns” in their garments – carefully designed arrangements of shapes, colours and repeated motifs said to exploit weaknesses in some #ComputerVision systems.
The designers say advances in #computing have made it easier to incorporate such patterns into commercially viable garments. Experts caution that the effectiveness of the patterns depends on the #surveillance system and the conditions in which it is used, but #NickTidball, the co-founder of the clothing brand Vollebak, thinks “adversarial clothing” could be on the cusp of going mainstream.
“#AntiSurveillance feelings are so widespread that all it would take is for a single celebrity to wear one of these garments, currently popular in the #countercultural fashion world, to a high-profile event for it to take off,” he said.”

The EU now bans large companies from destroying unsold clothes and shoes, requiring resale, donation, or reuse before disposal. ♻️
The Ecodesign rules aim to cut waste, conserve resources, and improve product circularity, with medium-sized firms covered from 2030. 🌍

History Major. Cripple. Vaguely Left-Wing. In pain and constantly irritable. Sorry to anyone I didn’t DM goodbye. I sorted people very ‘ad hoc’, and my own spotty focus and memory didn’t help. I recognized a lot of users in my time on here, and most of you I enjoyed very much. I think, in particular, I forgot some Slrpnk users. Good luck, going forward. o7
