Kebab joint in the very centre of our million person town.

Ate it on the day before Xmas, was walking and talking again by mid Boxing Day.

Bleaugh, lie down sweats and toilet yoyo.

The place shut down 5yrs after.

This was 20yrs ago, no kebab related issues since then, all tasty. Sour cream and garlic sauce, add a single felafel too.

I just posted a suggestion for a Lemmy feature-request for this very thing.

Thanks for sharing this moment about the Q&A.

The lack of self-awareness about how ghoulish, and close to grave robbing these 'reanimations' are is concerning. Glad to hear that museum professionals are not entertaining it for a moment.

Some sort of automatic down-sampling feature before posting, for images, video and maybe audio.

DeltaChat has this built in to minimise file-sizes before posting.

Something like this would reduce plenty of bandwith/processor use/carbon etc. Increase speed of loading pages.

With an option to click to see the original media too.

Yes, same.

I thought it was from the top of the lighthouse for 20 seconds, then flipped over to bottom.

Dudes love sharing a 4.72MB picture to Imagepipe before posting, to reduce that filesize to 691kb. 😌 (This could be baked in to some Lemmy clients)

But yeah, 8yr old me thinks that stick is a pretty sweet find.

Dragster shone in '83 as an example of gameplay-over-graphics. Just outstanding.

I don't have a 2600 today, but I do have a solitary cart of Dragster. Be ready.

Black swans surfing (www.youtube.com)

Dolphins surf shore break, and... so do black swans.

Anyone seen this live? Is it common, or a one off group?

RMaps previously provided free satellite imagery, and any geo-location could be shared from OSMand to RMaps, to quickly show a satellite overview. (Tiles from ARCGIS IIRC)

What is the current state of satellite imagery in fdroid?

How can an OSMand location be quickly opened as a satellite view?

Edit: Extra info is, I'm looking for an offline satellite image solution. Full pre-loading of a specific areas, before travel.

With RMaps, it was possible to pre-load the tiles for the remote-location needed at various zoom-levels, before travelling a few 100kms from cell-towers, and then still being able to access an offline-satellite-view of those locations when there.

BONUS TOMT:

I'm looking for the name of a FLOSS Quake1-mod, puzzle game, that was about placing gravity points, to curve a stream of particles around the level, and eventually into the goal target. (May have used irrlicht) If anyone knows the name of this one, please let me know, it is my white-whale of games.

That's it. Any horse, any time period, any peoples, did they fit a shoe that helped the horse to swim in water?

(Was thinking about how horses are pretty good swimmers, maybe due to their power and hoof shape. Could they be better?)
