Total Solar Eclipse Over Spain
Image Credit & Copyright: Ruiyu Zhang

Explanation: On August 12th, 2026, the Moon totally eclipsed the Sun and cast its shadow across Siberia, Greenland, Iceland, Spain, and Portugal. Today’s image features two total solar eclipses viewed from Zaragoza, Spain, one over the Cathedral-Basilica of Our Lady of the Pillar and the other reflecting in the Ebro River. For a few moments, Spain saw its first major total solar eclipse since 1905. Those witnessing totality may experience a chill in the air, the quieting of birds, the confused chirps of insects, and the shared awe of many. It’s the corona’s time to shine as the Sun’s bright disk is blocked by the Moon. Among other reasons to study eclipses, they help scientists understand why the corona is millions of degrees hotter than the Sun’s surface. Enthusiastic citizens can contribute to these studies by recording how wildlife responds, imaging the corona, and monitoring air temperature and clouds.

”It’s just a tool.” Oh yeah. Just a tool. That you rent. From a nazi. A tool. Which consumes the atmosphere. To produce an answer. Which is wrong. Just a tool

@mooseallain.bsky.social uh oh, they found it in an old books collection and it's been ingested now :(
@Richard_Littler you forgot
"tripping and landing face-down on lego with your hands tied behind your back"
and
"passing a rather large kidney-stone"
I think

@anon_opin men who enjoy their wife-beating sober I guess?
@cararemixed hard-agree on LLM-generated code. folks at my place have openly admitted (in public) to vibe-coding, then likened it to having a toddler code while you steer.
that really doesn't sound like fun or progress to me :(
@ozzelot @cararemixed my current place is very much AI-positive and encourages the use of senior-moments-Clippy (sorry, Copilot). I'm happily still in my "haven't touched an LLM, don't want to touch an LLM" phase of AI adoption. expert-system / machine-learning on closed datasets is about my hard-stop.
don't get me started on image-generation and voice-generation... if the thinking-sand was meant to talk to me I wouldn't have muted it on day 1.
@hypnogoria I am *so* not morning-folks today.
my requirements for my next home are being updated to include "underground shelter from the summer" - not something I'd really thought about too much in the UK Midlands previously...

Used the eclipse to make some little doodles that can only be seen at very specific times

Darken that sun and keep it that way.
@anon_opin cake... shed...
I feel like I've missed something.
those words go together like pasta floor.
there is some vague connection but you're not going to try eating the result.
go on, someone horrify me. what is a cake shed?

Once in their lifetime, every trans person who is physically and financially able is expected to make a pilgrimage to IKEA. This is known as the Blå Hajj.
