You did an excellent job capturing their color. At a glance they look solid black, but when you look closely at pictures, you see the subtle colors and iridescence.

I think it’s pretty neat, but amusing that it’s an “early warning system”, but the last update was an hour ago. Call my crazy, but I don’t think that’s early enough.

Whatever it is sounds smashing!

Why not?

Yup. Getting temp banned for this as well. Be respectful next time.

If you giggle while they grope you, it makes them very uncomfortable.

Source: I can’t help but giggle because the whole thing is so dumb.

Respectfully, I don’t think thats their intent:

They created a new, water- and oil-proof food packaging material made of mycelium from mushrooms and cellulose nanofibrils (CNFs) from wood that easily decomposes once its purpose is finished.

Very cool! I’m an idiot, but I wonder if it’s water and oil proof, how do you get it to “easily break down”? I imagine some sort of processing step to remove the coating, but I didn’t see that mentioned

I’m saying no. I could find nothing on the books that prohibits specific printer tech or mandates hidden tracing be added for it to be legal.

Using the tool for illegal activities is illegal, owning a printer capable of producing fake notes isn’t.

Where are you seeing that it’s illegal? I own a pen plotter that can print things without tracking dots and that’s not illegal. I don’t see why this would be any different.

I’ve been here for a couple of years now and have never gotten anything like that. I even occasionally ban people (which I can’t imagine they are too happy about). 🤷‍♂️

Worthwhile, but wrong community.

Is that a buzzard or a juvenile Cooper’s hawk? Great pictures regardless.

We’re talking about a government sponsored surveillance operation. I promise you they already know which license plates belong to you. I’m not sure I understand the risk here.

I don’t think this is correct.

• I did a few reverse image searches and found this image, but couldn’t really find any attribution. The timestamps on the results I found were quite old. Pretty sure this isn’t AI.

• there’s a clearly visible Coca Cola bottle shown attached to the gas price sign. This style of bottle wasn’t produced until 1977. https://www.historyoasis.com/post/coca-cola-bottle-design-history

• for gas to be 22 cents, this would need to be pre-1950’s. In 1977, gas was around $0.60 on average. https://www.energy.gov/eere/vehicles/fact-741-august-20-2012-historical-gasoline-prices-1929-2011

I’m pretty sure this is a modern image and the price shown is $2.11 (and 9/10’s of a cent).

Edit: I’m just seeing what community I’m posting it, but I’m leaving this comment.
