I had the pleasure of hearing Eileen Collins talk once and it was awesome. Incredible story teller and very funny.

Told a story about how they lost a bag of orange juice on the ISS and couldn't find it. Wasn't until they were trying to detatch (module? Something else? Not sure) that they found it by pushing down on a pedal and it exploded. In the moment everyone was terrified, but once they found it, it became a pretty big joke of their mission. Apparently their debrief was pretty much just being yelled at for the orange juice.

Lol, all of Spectrum's plans (outside gig) say "Typical Upload: 10Mbs or higher"

Why is it so hard for ISPs to provide a higher upload speed

The animation for this music video is also in the movie called: Interstella 5555.

The story combines: "One More Time," "Aerodynamic," "Digital Love," and "Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger."

Great photo even if it is a stacked image

To have both in focus does make it obvious it's an edit, yeah. Pretty much any photo where you see a near object and a in detail far object like the moon is a composite photo.

To get really detailed photos of the moon, you're more than likely taking hundreds of individual photos of the moon, stacking those (using software) and then compositing with another image.

This is an image I took which is actually about ~650 images of the moon through a telescope using a DLSR

Something similar to this composited onto another image would be a focus stack (like a tree or any other near object).

Generally, both images are taken at the same time, place, direction, etc. - so I don't really see it as "Fake" just more like an edit, which most photos are anyways to some degree.

Those little ears are so cute lol. Very fluffy looking owl.

I have a lot of onion grass in my backyard - exactly what I do with it lol. Always nice to chew on some while mowing.

Hopefully I'm not too late! Didn't see this one until reading your most recent post 😭

Boobook is perfect!! Thanks for setting all this up

The least cute owl? An introduction to the Verreaux Eagle Owl ( lemmy.world )

Somewhat clickbait headline, but this is the last owl for me to come to appreciate in an aesthetic way. I at least want to give it the courtesy of sharing it with you all, and maybe the skeptics among us can find something in this owl....

@Winged_Hussar@lemmy.world avatar

That first photo of VEO looks like me in the morning when I forget to drink water before bed lol

Overall, not too ugly, definitely not the prettiest owl.
And I'd agree that "Milky Owl" really isn't any better.

This owl definitely scores points back by being able to eat large mamels and hedgehogs!

I used Power Delete Suite but I had to modify it a bit to put in a delay of about 30-45 seconds for each comment as I was editing the text for each one prior to deleting.

Took quite a while, but in the end my account was gone. I'm sure reddit could pull stuff from it if they really wanted, but no user facing options exist - even "deleted reddit comment viewers".

Edit: I will say that I'm unsure if this still works (or any editing tools) because of the API changes.

Winged_Hussar ,
@Winged_Hussar@lemmy.world avatar

Awesome! Make sure to double check some of the comments that they were all updated/deleted. Without a delay mine has trouble and missed a few

💚 happy New Year all! It's been fun, hopefully even more Owl goodness next year

Looks cozy - how long do owls use a nest for? Do they return back to a nest made in a previous season, or do they make a new nest each year like some birds?

Winged_Hussar ,
@Winged_Hussar@lemmy.world avatar

As always, appreciate your comment!! Very interesting to learn that there are (in rare cases) nests that last up to a decade. That's an impressive nest

"Anarchy at 11pm" could be a sick band name

Those eyes, those damn eyes. So beautifully haunting

The name is for the actual hussars, but I'll check out the band! I'm always eager to listen to new music

@Winged_Hussar@lemmy.world avatar

Very cool channel, I appreciate you sharing! You were correct, I very much enjoyed the song - I'll be checking out the rest of Sabaton's music for sure

@Winged_Hussar@lemmy.world avatar

I'm glad they found it before the dogs did - 4 days undetected is pretty impressive!

I particularly love this image of it in the branches - it looks so cozy (although perturbed by the flash).

The decision tree my company uses to deny customer claims is not AI despite the business constantly referring to it as such.

There’s definitely a ton of “AI” that is nothing more than an If/Else statement.

@Winged_Hussar@lemmy.world avatar

Another patch? That’s fantastic - some map editor fixes and changes too.

Winged_Hussar ,
@Winged_Hussar@lemmy.world avatar

Bracket could be fun and I think would get more community involvement if there’s 1 “matchup” a day.

Not sure how the seeding would be setup, or if just randomly applying would be fine.

What if it was to determine the community’s banner or profile icon?
