G definitely points to a jet. A private jet to be more specific.
This.
Also applies to the eyes sort of, as tilting the head offers a different axis for the stereo vision to try to make sense of whatever it's looking at.
IIRC, animals often do this movement instinctually when they're puzzled by something because the additional sensory information could be helpful.
Skynet theories aside, the whole "AI will solve trafic" thing is just dumb. Sure, I suppose we could one day perfect a system of cars working as a hivemind to optimize the flow of trafic, but that just makes it impossible for anyone not part in that hivemind (cyclists etc.) to use the road.
I suppose the "just one more lane bro" joke sort of applies here in that the problem caused by cars would be "solved" by doubling down on cars.
Cultural reasons.
The original definition is also pretty vague: Europa is first used in a geographic context in the Homeric Hymn to Delian Apollo, in reference to the western shore of the Aegean Sea.
Airbus A220-300, formerly known as the Bombardier CSeries, yes.
I took the picture from about 500 meters away. If you look closely, you can see that the windows at the front and back of the plane aren't lined up perfectly because perspective is a thing.
I happen to know a spot that lines up pretty well with planes landing on that particular runway. Then it's just a matter of spamming the shutter until one of the shots comes out like this.
Hey guys, Peter Griffin here to explain ~~the joke~~ the image.
The image taken in Yunnan (China) 16 Aug 2022 by JiaQi Sun displays a Cumulonimbus calvus with the accessory cloud pileus on top. A pileus is formed when a rising cloud pushes the air above it higher which causes it to cool down adiabatically. When sufficient humidity is present in that higher layer of air, the humidity condenses into a pileus.
Here the pileus displays quite magnificent iridescence. The sun is behind the cloud. When sunlight passes through the very small and evenly sized cloud droplets of the pileus, diffraction takes place. Different wavelengths are diffracted in different angles and thus the white light of the sun is broken down into separate colours. While the cloud droplets are similar in size, there is still some variation there. The size of the droplets also affects the ammount of diffraction and thus the colours are somewhat disordered.
If you want to see cloud iridescence yourself, look for clouds passing in front of the sun that aren't opaque enough to block it completely. Lenticular clouds, Cirrocumulus lenticularis in particluar are good candidates for iridescence as they are formed in a similar manner to the pileus here and have an even distribution in droplet size.
There have been a number of viral photoshops circulating the internet since the original pictures were taken where the cloud has been added to wide angle shots and made to appear like it takes up half the sky. These however are easily debunked with basic knowledge about clouds and the optical phenomena in question as the colours here are impossible at wider angles.
No. The thing below the p in "Spez".
On a side note, I'm pleased to see that the void demon is looking beautiful as ever. Easily the best actually original idea/artwork to have come out of there.
I was thinking about HDR photography where you take multiple pictures of the same scene with different expoures and combine the best parts of each for a picture with a high dynamic range. This evidently wasn't the case here.
I see. Thanks for the explanation.
I was thinking that this was exactly what happened.
