Banana art.

She bruises the art into the banana.

I couldn't find an appropriate thread, if one exists, could a mod please morph this into that?

TIA

Looks like a good place to me.
Bananas would make a lousy medium, they turn black right before your eyes, and you lose your picture.

It's like a mandala but automatic.

A designer of electronic games gives his take on Qanon. I found it interesting, your mileage may vary.

It's a bit stunning actually

I have linked it here but better if you click on youtube in the video to see it at a larger size - you don't get the full effect at small size

This is NOT a rick roll...!

Whatever interpolating filters they use is pretty impressive throughout, with the exception of the 1:12 through 1:14 mark. those faces look downright creepy.

The close-ups look great, but when you see more of the set, it looks cheap, like a soap opera. This is across the board when you watch something that wasn't intended to be viewed at high resolution, it reveals flaws that were supposed to be blurred out.

If I don't have a 4K monitor, will I see any difference from 1080?

You certainly wouldn't want to miss out on the Dredging Museum of Northern CA.
http://dutramuseum.org/

Or the Western Railway Museum.

The railway museum is great, been there twice,
I'll bet the dredging one is too. Beautiful building.
Little regional envy, Bruce?

STOP Windows10 from minimizing a bunch of Windows because you "wiggled" one of the title bars too vigorously--
https://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-7/disable-aero-shake-in-windows-7/

Basically run regedit, go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced, rt-click, create a new DWORD (32-bit) Value called DisallowShaking, rt-click to change Value data to 1 (true)

Random animations

**Posted by Diaphone Jim** 1/29/2024 11:47 am

Animations are great. Is there any control other than "next?"

**Posted by Happy Monkey** 1/29/2024 4:08 pm

You can manually select by date (or some other galleries) here.

**Posted by xoxoxoBruce** 2/07/2024 1:18 am

Those are so cool but I'm conflicted, anxious to see the next one but not wanting to leave the last one.
I have a feeling 3, 7, 12 screens wouldn't help. LoL
There was a time seeing one of those on a screen, my brain would automatically credit Walt Disney.

So there is a secret extension code built into Google that will allow you to do an old-style search, free from AI results, garbage "knowledge panels," and even ads. The code itself is &udm=14, but there is an extension for Firefox (called udm14) that automatically makes all your searches use this code. There may be similar tools for other browsers, I'm not sure.

You can also just search directly from this mirror site, which has it built in:

https://udm14.com/

It doesn't solve the problem of SEO-optimizing that websites are doing to get to the top of results, but it massively improves the overall output. Highly recommended.

I like it, it's google with out all the bs. I'm trying to lure Lady Keryx out of her Lair. To see what she thinks.

Thanks Clodfobble!
