While I don't like Reddit anymore, reddit.com/r/DesirePath was such a fun place to browse back in the days.

I've always found desire paths to be such an intriguing facet of human behavior.

Gotta have the little wholesome things to balance out the Misery.

This is a word soup that uses a lot of words to say not much at all. It's basically a fan-fic of Gemini becoming self aware with the help of Siri.

Even using a chat bot to summarize the soup didn't help it make any sense...

TL;DR from Wikipedia: In photon upconversion, two or more incident photons of relatively low energy are absorbed and converted into one emitted photon with higher energy.

Basically photons are combined into a photon that is nearer in wavelength to visible light.

Oh 100% you're right.

I'd wager this wasn't one of their first tests (and maybe not even a test at all). Looks to me like an advertisement/publicity stunt/demonstration.

I could be easily wrong since I haven't researched this exact event, but I think it's safe to assume it's more than just a test since they have cameras out.

I mean, what better way to sell a new and untrusted device than to put your own trust (and life) in the product.

Would you sell a bullet proof vest if you didn't feel safe wearing it?

Would you buy a bullet proof vest if its own inventor didn't feel safe wearing it?

Did you just "Well akshually" the original movie line? On an edited meme about someone complaining about ancient copper? Lol.

Look guys! We got a silmarillion nerd here!

(I'm assuming that's a silmarillion fact you're arguing, otherwise I'll look like a Muppet lol)

Turns out, it's illegal to remove them in the US:

I'll be leaving the cowbird egg in the nest, but will keep a close eye on the other eggs.

I've heard that the cowbird will retaliate if it finds its egg missing. Won't that happen?

 

While it's not the biggest achievement in the world, I'm quite happy that we made it to the 1K mark (even if it will likely drop again).

This community really means a lot to me. It's my way of sharing the love I have with the people that matter to me and with you lovely people of Lemmy.

I really appreciate all the comments and posts that have been submitted by you guys.

Here's to many more months of great posts :)
