tired_lemming,

Congratulations. One of those things about flying birds is how cool it feels when they land on your arm and you realise how much lighter they are compared to their looks.

tired_lemming,

Booties are cute but knowing this plus the whole monkeys dropping dead from trees due to heatwave makes me sad. 🥲

tired_lemming,

For a moment i wondered what they would do with 3 owls left. Looks like there will be hope for increasing the wild population.

Discussing wildlife photography ethics, including the story why this Flammy looks quite displeased (lemmy.world)

I came across an article called Owls — Not Quite as Clever as We Think and after the post about AI generated images and today’s is it real or isn’t it pic of the Northern Lights https://lemmy.world/post/15495156, I felt now was the right time to share this article and see some of your opinions on the matter. I feels it’s...

tired_lemming,

This kind of reminds me of an article I read about an exotic animal ranch that specialised in faking photos for wild life shoots or films and I’m not for it.

I’ll rather I never see the animals than how disruptive we are being to them in their habitats or faking shots for the camera. I know a good wildlife photographer means lots of wasted time trying to get good shots and helps to raise awareness but I think animals should be left alone as much as possible rather than danced in front of us like a circus.

tired_lemming,

Now those are some nice and unique poses you don’t see every day. T Pose owl lol.

tired_lemming,

It’s lovely to know that some efforts are bearing fruit. We do need uplifting news time to time.

tired_lemming,

I definitely want any and all AI art to be clearly mentioned. But honestly I’ll prefer the real things and it’s nice to know that you manage to find such great photos. Definitely appreciate you wading through all the shit to find the gems but absolutely don’t burn yourself out. If weird fakes are of interest, maybe a once a week or once a month post with titles like “worst AI shit trying to pass off as real” or something.

Like you said, this one looks like emo candycorn (black stripes) but definitely do declare in title because people have such short attention spans and best not to leave any doubt.

tired_lemming,

Wait. Those are actual owls in the tree? Not a crappy photoshop? It’s crazy what the right angles in photography can do in creating a photo. Reminds me of the perspective tricks they used in Lord of the Rings to film naturally but give the illusion of size differences.

tired_lemming,

Appreciate you taking the effort to find the original. Always good to have the credit to original source.

tired_lemming,

That first photo there is classic “draw me like one of your French girls”. Look at that gaze.

tired_lemming,

This is a very cool shot and thanks for sharing the photo and photographer’s story too. The number of cool things we never see cos we couldn’t film it is sad but knowing that even a fraction of it is captured on film is amazing.

tired_lemming,

All of it sounds really cool and thanks for sharing!

tired_lemming,

This looks like an old owl man judging you hard.

Just take anyone who speaks a second language and ask them to explain their expertise in the second language. Almost everyone will start sounding stupid trying to do the translation in their head to the second language.

Edit: Just to be clear, I don’t think said person is stupid at all. There’s just difficulty speaking about a concept you would innately know and have learned in one language and translate it to a second one. Except for all those genius polyglots out there of course.

tired_lemming,

This looks like a moth shapeshifting into an owl and forgot to get rid of some moth bits. Very cool.

tired_lemming,

Oh yes, I love it when the drinks are flat. I find the carbonation kinda burns so having less of that makes the drink better.

Also, you don’t get it back up the nose when you burp.

tired_lemming,

I like how Pathfinder 2E does it. A 20 brings your result one tier higher. A 1 brings your result one tier lower. With a high enough base expertise, you can still succeed when rolling a 1, just not as awesome as you normally are. And a 20 isn’t a guarantee against really strong foes.

How does an automatic road barrier decide when a vehicle is coming?

So just something that’s been on my mind. At my workplace there’s an automatic road barrier that lifts up and down when vehicles arrive. However, it’s not used for a carpark system when people wave their tickets or something. It just goes up and down when a vehicle shows up....
