Here's another great video posted just now.

hazeebabee , in Elastic knots behave in a really bizarre way

Such cool objects. I love the symmetry of the stable knot formations too. Math really can be magical sometimes

SnokenKeekaGuard OP Mod ,

Absolutely!

stoy , in Why the 2024 Solar Eclipse is Such a Big Deal

TL;DW: Cool solar eclipse, but only for a small part of Mexico, large parts of the US and a tiny fraction of Canada.

If you are in Europe, Africa, Asia, Australia, latin or south America you won't see anything.

SnokenKeekaGuard OP Mod ,

Yeah it's a shame, I wont get to see it either. Would love to see the northern lights and a solar eclipse at some point.

stoy ,

Get the aurora pro app, it'll notify you when you are in sn area when there is a chance to see the northern lights

SnokenKeekaGuard OP Mod ,

That's really cool, thanks!

Once in a blue moon I can see the Aurora Australis.

Next solar eclipse over my state is 2038, better set the calendar.

SnokenKeekaGuard OP Mod ,

Wouldn't mind seeing a blue moon either

I watched this a couple months back and it was really insightful.

Why I never trust any new car with technology. Wish I could just rip the hard drive out of mine and not break the car

I came to make a comment about how they're like the Shiva stones in Temple of Doom, but the article says that's exactly what they are, Shiva stones.

Because we aren't.

littlebluespark , in 3,300-year-old tablet from mysterious Hittite Empire describes catastrophic invasion of four cities
@littlebluespark@lemmy.world avatar

So, what happened‽

SnokenKeekaGuard OP Mod ,

According to a translation by Mark Weeden, an associate professor of ancient Middle Eastern languages at University College London, the first six lines of cuneiform text on the tablet say, in the Hittite language, that "four cities, including the capital, Hattusa, are in disaster," while the remaining 64 lines are a prayer in the Hurrian language asking for victory.

The Hittites used the Hurrian language for religious ceremonies, Matsumura told Live Science, and it appears that the tablet is a record of a sacred ritual performed by the Hittite king.

"The find of the Hurrian tablet means that the religious ritual at Büklükale was performed by the Hittite king," he said in an email. "It indicates that, at the least, the Hittite king came to Büklükale … and performed the ritual."

Intriguing, certainly. 🤓🤘🏽

nucleative , in Musk wanted to use Tesla cameras to spy on drivers and win autopilot lawsuits

Who owns the camera? The owner or Tesla? Tesla hypothetically knows that the data should exist so can potentially subpoena it in any cases where it might help them. Hopefully Tesla owners haven't been signing user agreements that grants Tesla access to the data already.

RestrictedAccount , in Musk wanted to use Tesla cameras to spy on drivers and win autopilot lawsuits

You know, this means he already saw what was on it.

drwankingstein , in Musk wanted to use Tesla cameras to spy on drivers and win autopilot lawsuits

I am weirdly conflicted on this, On one hand, massive piracy invasion, on the other hand, cars are probably doing this anyways and this seems like a no-brainer.

well not that I will ever get a smart car to begin with

The water's already hot. What could a few more degrees hurt?
