This could be a real pain if anyone used copilot.

Yeah, baby! Yeah!

Rss users rise up!

Hexagons are the Bestagons

EndeavourOS, ProtonGE.

Zero issues since server slam.

Too big to save.

The ammount of money in these companies for AI (4.5B 3.9T for Micosoft alone) is too much for even the US to bail them out.

Edit: Double checked the number – I was off by 3 orders of magnitude because these numbers are just dumb.

Well no one ever had to sell me on how nice a fire smells.

T-2 Days till it wipes someones boot sector somehow.

In breaking news; The sky is blue.

More at 4.

Its all the drain bamage.

Weight == $$$

That particular scene is from The Andalite Chronicles book. 😊

Not quite what i meant haha: A conic projection uses a 3D cone laid over the top of a 3D globe and then the cone is spread out on a flat surface, rather then the map itself being a cone as you have done above.

The videos below might help illustrate what i mean.

Any projection is a compromise. You conserve some properties at the cost of others.

You could always start with a mercator projection. They are easy enough to make (think cylinder wrapped tightly around the ‘equator’ of your globe.

Or you could go with a conic projection (think cone sitting on a gloabe like a hat) which are also simple to make. Lambert conformal conics are common in aeronautical charts.

Both of these projections are used in different maps in the real world for navigation.

Edit: Go for a browse; there are plenty of different flavors https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_map_projections If your using software, then you can kinda do whatever you want without worrying about how hard or easy it is to make. 😄

Save me a seat

It does feel a bit like building a statue of the animal that killed your friend.

You could also locally run it through Whisper from Open AI to create subs and then embed them using ffmpeg.

I do this for vids in languages i dont speak.

The short version;

1. There was probably a legit sighting of a few drones at some point. (Its a pretty regular occurrence).
2. It got amplified by a few people.
3. News media amped it up more
4. People started looking up in the sky at night and not knowing what they were looking at.
5. MANY many reports of drones are just regular air traffiic, or planets, or stars.
6. More people started looking. Some of then launching their own drones to look at the drones.
7. And it just kinda snowballed from there.

TLDR; People looking at the sky for the first time discover its full of lights from various sources which they can’t id.

Note: I do find it rather amusing how many people apparently can’t ID an aircraft flying overhead or know what an out-of-focus star looks like. I guess theres always new people learning new things. Just wouldn’t have put those two things on my list.

Edit: A fair bit of it is the usual “Aliens” people making noise, and im sure there are plenty of others farming engagement for $$$. I don’t think we are going to get a clear picture for a while. We will have to wait for the hype / hysteria to die down before we get any reasonable assesment.
