Watching X-Files and they must have forgotten to film a reaction shot where this guy looks away from Scully again, so they just played the previous shot backwards?? Lmao

A great use of @illecta.bsky.social 's amazing set of moths is tossing them in front of groups of moth scientists and watching them start organizing them. This could be a great tool to learn some of the basic families of moths!

At the Open Hardware Summit, I got the coolest gift! @illecta.bsky.social made illustrated stickers of the moths of Ireland with hand-labeled names on the back! #yearOfTheMoth #SciArt

He's not a character I'd model my political opinions after, personally.

Screenshot of a new article saying:
"I'm not racist, says Reform politician who used Chinese slur"

With body text:

Laura Anne Jones apologised for using the slur, saying it was a term "used for a takeaway" when she was a child.

A still from "I'm Alan Partridge" where Michael is saying "you're all right with that, because it's a race of people, and it's a food"

But practising this part does make me feel like I'm having a stroke.

Perfect Christmas Eve walk.

A narrow rock formation frames a sandy pathway leading to the beach, with ocean waves visible in the distance. Sunlight casts shadows on the textured rocks, highlighting their rugged surfaces.

A coastal scene featuring dark rocky cliffs framing a sandy beach, with a beam of light shining out from a gap in the rocks.

A piece of seaweed with small yellow bubbles lies on smooth sand.

A beach scene featuring waves lapping at the shore under a clear blue sky, with distant hills and rocky formations in the background.

Lovely winter solstice walk.

A view of a beach, covered in washed up seaweed, with a cloudy blue sky above.

A view of the ocean across a beach. Above the water, a cloudy sky with a little bit of rainbow visible.

The code and print files are here, need to put add a schematic for it but it's pretty simple, just a speaker and Hall effect sensor wired to an Arduino Pro Mini (clone in this case). github.com/stephenjdc/F...

I made this electronic music box for the Dublin Maker Secret Santa. It was a lot of fun to build. It uses some magnets in the flywheel part, with a Hall effect sensor, to detect rotation, and plays the music at the corresponding tempo.

The autumn vibes are starting.

Three small, glossy white mushrooms growing on a moss-covered log in a forest setting. The background features blurred greenery.

A moss-covered stone staircase in the woods, surrounded by tall trees and dense foliage. The forest floor is covered in leaves and fallen branches.

Tall, wispy plants in evening sunlight. The scene features a mix of green and golden foliage under a partly cloudy sky.

A person stands by a tranquil lake, gazing at the water. Surrounding them are trees and bushes, with a backdrop of rolling hills under a cloudy blue sky.

Home internet is down, and I'm on a call to support. Guy asked me what lights I see on the router, and I tell him I have the lights disabled. He replied "then how do you know when it is working?" Gonna be a long call.

Starting off here like I've started on every other social platform: awkwardly and unenthusiastically.
