This video from Corridor Crew is pretty amazing. They re-create the nearly perfect compositing from the penguin dance sequence in Mary Poppins, which was achieved using high intensity sodium vapor lights and a very custom beam splitter, instead of a blue or green screen. It truly feels like a lost art rediscovered. When the matted footage just perfectly drops in I gasped haha https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=UQuIVsNzqDk

important eclipse safety tips:
- never look at an eclipse without eye protection
- ensure your eclipse glasses are ISO 12312-2 certified
- do not listen to the whispers of the faceless men who emerge during totality, they speak only lies
- always supervise children closely

- Do you think you're a suggestible person?
- Me? No, not really.
- Did someone mention to you that you might have been the sort of person to make Cerne Abbas Giant style pictures?
- Well, they might have...
- And did someone else mention the possibility of large chicken hill carvings?
- Well, maybe...
- Did you just search through your photos looking for an appropriate grassy slope for a giant chicken picture?
-
- Well?
- No comment.

Dull property development down the road is selling a one-bedroom flat for half a million quid (plus hefty service charge, I assume), mind-bogglingly ridiculous
@mattround is that the brutalist-church meets student-halls place? no way are those 1-bed? :-o

There's a thing called pareidolia, where someone sees a pattern or image of something that doesn't really exist, frequently faces.
At first I thought my perception of this building was an example of it, then I realised the face definitely DOES exist.
I mean, the architect even included eyebrows. Come on.

Good thing: There was a gap in the rain so I could get outside for half an hour.
Bad thing: The gap in the rain was only 20 minutes.
Good thing: Found this!
(good things win - hurrah)

there's something real fucking dark about how AI is too inaccurate for tracking people around a grocery store so they have humans to make sure every last item is paid for, whereas if your AI is generating targets for a genocide then a serious error rate is perfectly within acceptable parameters.

I'm ready for the coming eclipse and for the second threat that could cast America into darkness.
