@j Fake and gay. What, I'm supposed to believe that's infrared camera footage? Is that why everything is green? Nah, that's stupid video game logic.
1) night vision, infrared stuff is just boring black and white, grayscale.
2) if you're a science team tasked to investigate and extract something like this, you'll want proper color cameras, and a lot of light to actually see and document things.
This is someone color editing some footage they found until you can't recognize things, and then claimed "that white sphere with no distinctive features because I over edited the image is an alien egg, trust me bro".
As for the "wouldn't the pilots know!!!" argument people throw out all the time. Pilots aren't scientists. They're regular people, like you and me, that only know how to do one thing. That have trained their whole life to be excellent at one specific thing: flying an helicopter or plane. That's it. They could be the best pilots in the world, and not know the difference between an iPhone and Android.
You think that if they look out the window they can magically see the difference between a bird at a moderate distance or a plane at an insane distance? They don't have better eye sight than you. If you can get tricked by something you see at a distance, they do too. Which is why they have all kinds of instruments on board to tell them "hey, buddy, that's a plane coming right towards you", and they don't just eyeball it.
P.S. here's a real picture someone took in a deep dark cave. Notice how you can actually see things.
@PinochetsCommieCopter So you're going back far enough to establish that "black men dumb", but not that far, because you're skipping right into when European and Asian civilizations are established. Go back another 3000 years and you could laugh at Europeans too for not even knowing how to write.
A few thousand years is NOTHING in the history of human kind. Just last week I read that they found hominim bones in my own country dating back almost 2 million years. Humanity, in one form or another, has owned Europe for 2 million years, and you're bickering about the last few thousand years?

I'm on Vivaldi, and ublock origin still works for now. I'm guessing they'll turn off support for Manifest V2 eventually, but it actually has its own integrated ad blocker too. So I'm sure I'll be fine, whatever might happen.
@matrix I'm sure there's plenty of reasons for it. Me personally, I simply can't use Firefox because I absolutely hate how it renders fonts. I've tried every way imaginable to teak settings, but to me they just feel thick and blurry. With Chromium browsers by contrast, I get thin, crisp sharp lines.
@PinochetsCommieCopter What do you count as "black history"? How far back are we going here? Cause if we go back far enough, then our history would be majority comprised of living in caves. Not exactly that much more prestigious.
@WhitestTemplar I heard she reached 500 sneezes.

People really need to remember that falsely accusing black people of rape used to be a common tactic to get them lynched.
I don't care if MLK was a womanizer. Rape is bad 'mkay, but that should be seriously investigated before throwing words around. And since the guy is dead, nobody is gonna waste time figuring out the truth here.
Personally, I'm more interested about the Rosa Parks thing. Not the first time I've come across someone saying it was a publicity stunt. But I do think it might be the first time hearing a 15 year old girl was involved.

Me: Come on, Firefox' market share can't be this low
>quick online search
>it was 2.74 in August 2024
Oh my god... it is. Firefox is dying. Samsung's browser is close to passing it, and that's an Android only thing, and only on Samsung devices. Can't wait for the cope from the open source crowd.
@sun This sounded just crazy enough to be true. Did a search. Was disappointed.
@sun That sounds like a you problem.
I've been saying that China lies. Slowly we're gonna start finding the truth about Deepseek, and people will slowly move away from it when they realize it's not all it's cracked up to be.

@WALFTEAM First thing I thought when I saw the clip was "Mad Max? Or something inspired by that?", then I started seeing the characters and it gave me Disney Star Wars vibes. And then I noticed the clearly vulcan character, at which point I was left completely confused. So yeah, completely unrecognizable. I'm just glad I noped out just from seeing reviews of STD.
@ivesen We can only hope.
@matrix
>was there ever an explanation for why she was having sex with a dog?
I think a different question is better suited here: was Hollywood aware of the dog pill before internet trolls were?
@PinochetsCommieCopter I don't know enough about flying to know if this is too little or a lot.
@Umlaut I could have told him that a few years ago.
If anyone asks me why I never read the books or watched the show, this is why.
@j From what I heard Google plans to make the change only for American users.
@coolboymew Japanese copyright avoidance is always the funniest shit. I love them for it.

Me: Ok, STOP! What the fuck is this? What the FUCK is this?!?! Fucking shit... Is this some Star Wars shit I missed? Is it Star Trek?! I thought they stopped the Star Trek by now. Fucking hell...
