My take on the fake moon from Samsung

Just wanted to add some stuff on this "hot" topic.

In short, I managed to obtain a moon by starting with something that isn't even a moon.

I just made a white circle in Photoshop and brushed it a little. Then I also rotated it and created artifacts that would never appear on the moon (through clone-stamp tool).

The picture VS the result

Just An Observation: Y2K38 Is Very Much A Problem With Phones That Are 32 Bit.

Firstly, What is Y2k38? Well it's a problem with 32 bit unix time counters that use a signed 32 Bit integer to count time, where it overflows after January 19th, 2038 at 03:14:07 UTC, normally reverting back to December 13th, 1901 at 20:45:52 UTC, this is due to it reaching the max value a signed 32 bit integer can be which is 2,147,483,647, to which it reverts back to its minimum value of -2,147,483,647 which in turn is December 13th, 1901 at 20:45:52 UTC.

LAST update on the Samsung moon controversy, and clarification

If you're getting bored of this topic, try and guess how it is for me. I'm really tired of it, and only posting this because I was requested to. Besides, if you're tired of the topic, well, why did you click on it? Anyway -

There have been many misinterpretations of the results I obtained and I would like to clarify them. It's all in the comments and updates to my post, but 99% of people don't bother to check those, so I am posting it as a final note on this subject.

Samsung Space Zoom fake? What about the sun?

So I saw all the uproar about Samsung faking moon shots and the reasons behind them and thought yeah that sounds plausible but then I remembered a photo of the sun I took on a cloudy day on my way back from Ohio. I was sitting at a rest stop waiting for my wife to use the bathroom and was like what if I 100x the sun through a cloud on my S22 Ultra and here is what I got

Clearing controversy regarding Samsung's "Space Zoom" moonshots. No. They aren't exactly fake per say.


Greetings everyone.

This is my first post into this community. Within the tech space, a lot is going on regarding the moonshots taken from Samsung Galaxy S series smartphones. Particularly S21, S22, and S23 series.

The post created by u/ibreakphotos have definitely sparked a lot of debate and here's my take on it with evidence that I have gathered from my end. The experiment done on that post is certainly fruitful even on my own S22+. However, there are a lot of things happening that needs t...

What I learned for backing up texts for new phone or factory reset!!

I thought I'd make a quick post about how I did this. I needed to factory reset my phone (this would work when getting a new phone too), but I didn't want to lose all my texts and the media content in the texts. This method was completely FREE.

First, you need cloud storage somewhere. If you're like me you don't want to clog up your Google drive space so I signed up for a free Dropbox account here. Downloadi...
