World News@lemmy.world•Alex Honnold completes live Netflix free solo climb of Taipei 101 without safety gearEnglish
12·8 days agoThe climb is so trivial for him that it is just easy money. I’m an amateur climber and I would do this if I was given the permission and 1/10th of the money.
Yes there’s a chance of things going wrong, but it’s like betting against Anthony Joshua in his Jake Paul cash grab. Maybe even less risk than that.
His previous solos were more outrageous but always treated with a degree of respect and preparation. It’s what has put him in a position to be able to do this exhibition.
Your outrage is exactly the kind of thing Netflix want and it’s why it’s been done live.
Holy shit is that real? I saw the first and had no interest in the rest.
This one is great, like a toddler pretending to be a plane. You can do it!
It’s so valuable to me to hear how much work goes into caring for wildlife. I’m glad there are people doing this work and there is funding for things like surgery and rehab. Sadly where I am, if you take a wild bird to a vet it will almost certainly be put to sleep.
I’m not sure they measure things that much? Isn’t it cut from this thing to that thing and the length isn’t important. Then if two cut bits are going together then it’s fairly malleable stuff, plus it organically repairs. At least that’s my guess, in case a surgeon isn’t able to reply.
If this takes off it could be a great thing for conservation. Frogs are in a lot of trouble!
Sadly I’m not so sure, but I like to be optimistic

Superbowl@lemmy.world•Winner of the 2025 Owl of the Year - Buffy Fish Owl!
12·1 month agoLike all good propaganda, I wouldn’t expect anything else. I think Flammy has something extra over a lot of owls for the artistically inclined, with those deep void eyes and flame highlights.
Really though, there are so many I would be happy to see do well (cough barn owl cough cough)

38·1 month agoThank you so much for organising this. It’s obviously a tonne of work and we all appreciate it. For me it’s one of the best things on the internet and I’m already looking forward to next time.
Buffy is such a great winner 🤟

Superbowl@lemmy.world•Closed - 2025 Owl of the Year Finale! Buffy Fish Owl (92) vs Screech Owl (89)
10·2 months agoI cannot decide, this is too hard. It’s so close too. Both are worthy winners, but for the final they both deserve the respect from me to choose someone rather than vote for both.

Superbowl@lemmy.world•Closed - OotY Round 30 - Screech (54) vs Snowy (36)
5·2 months agoI know these are both popular owls; I wasn’t expecting such a dominant win for Screech with how close some of the rounds have been. I know it’s still open, but it would take some serious drama for Snowy to come back now.
I’m faced with an extremely tough call in the finals, but I’ll be happy with a new owl coming out victorious no matter what.

Superbowl@lemmy.world•Closed - OotY Round 29 - White Faced (39) vs Buffy Fish (52)
6·2 months agoI looked earlier and it was close, but Buffy was lagging behind. Now it’s a clear lead but a long way to go still. I’m starting to believe in a Buffy fish title. This owl catches fish people! Vote Buffy

Superbowl@lemmy.world•Closed - OotY Round 29 - White Faced (39) vs Buffy Fish (52)
5·2 months agoI would love to see a buffy screech final. I can’t name a clear favourite, they are all deserving and we’ve had so many surprises already. My frustration has been being on the losing side of almost every vote, but that’s just how things go sometimes. I’m hoping Barn owl has a strong showing next year too.

I might get some flak for this, but this nest looks like it needs a lot more work. After reading the caption and scrolling down I had a little chuckle, I expected something grander. She knows best though of course!
