Wait, that’s a photo? I thought it was a stylized rendering at first. The colors are almost vaporwave.

Ahh, haven’t seen this in a long time.

Though you kinda have to give to her, that her initial guesstimate was 58 minutes. That’s just 3.3% error, not bad considering the ridiculous way she arrived at that number. Maybe she’s really good at estimates but can’t do any precise math. She might even be an engineer.

Seriously, all the other photos from the event are pretty meh but this one is World Press Photo material.

Did they puke from the altitude or because they were riding in a Peugeot 405 T16 uphill?

How high are you rn? Also, who the fuck’s Mr Rodgers (sic)?

“And wow! Hey! What’s this thing suddenly coming towards me very fast? Very very fast. So big and flat and round, it needs a big wide sounding name like … ow … ound … round … ground! That’s it! That’s a good name – ground! I wonder if it will be friends with me?”

Oh dog, they meant Fathrenheits! I was thinking 10 degrees Celsius hotter, which sounded even more insane (that’s 18°F if my math is correct).

Message to dear Americans: If you insists on using your freedom units, can you at least mark them properly? We have no way of knowing where you are from.

I know what a serif is. And I’m specifically not talking about that. I’m talking about this:

This is why I prefer sans-serif fonts that have lower case l’s with a little bend on the bottom. For example the new default font in Office (Aptos) does exactly that.

I mean, that idea isn’t mine, nor new: https://youtu.be/dechvhb0Meo?t=87

If they start building vertical cinemas, that’s when we lose.

Every sperm is sacred, every sperm is great. If a sperm is wasted, God gets quite irate.

Day 147: They still haven’t noticed.

I mean, everything else works, even other videos on the very same website. I’m now at work on my phone and it doesn’t work either! It’s as if this particular video was blocked in my country or something (which I find absurd but I have no other explanation if other people can play it).

Do you know what direct link host works fine for you?

Sorry, no idea what you’re asking.

I am gonna guess you are on Linux (or Mac?)

Nope, Windows 10, Firefox 119.0. No idea what’s happening. I even tried disabling uBlock for that website but that didn’t help. Other videos on that site do work, strangely.

Edit: Actually, it doesn’t work in any other browser either, it only shows a static thumbnail without an error message in Chrome, Edge and Vivaldi. I would’ve assumed the video simply got deleted but if it works for other people then it must be something with my network?

You’re still luckier than me, the video doesn’t play for me at all, neither on lemmy, nor on the original website. Firefox tells me “No video with supported format and MIME type found”.

Aren’t rockets vehicles that ride on fire (that they create themselves)?

Oh I do for sure.
