I reckon a Pelican would easily be able to get a skateboard rolling. I’m just now sure the best steps to proceed testing it.

I’d try a skateboard at the top of a hill and see about getting a cockatoo to somehow get the board to roll under it’s own propulsion so it can sit back and enjoy a ride down a hill. That’d be the way I’d try if I wanted the bird to do it repeatedly.

Thank you.

I can’t help directly, but the people at https://lemmy.world/c/techsupport mighr be able to.

And when it learns something new, the response will be “Holy Hell”.

Ive put a few to birding before , they’ve helped when i didn’t know what some birds were. I think i’ll go there first.

It looks like the front hasn’t fallen off.

Edit: context for those not aware - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3m5qxZm_JqM . The front section of a oil tanker fell off and it started leaking crude oil into the ocean off perth and it caught fire.

The two actors are comedians who (then) regularly did send ups of politicians in the last few minutes broadcast each week on an otherwise serious news show.

Another one that just came to mind is Limitation of Liability where worst case is client doesn’t pay you if something like memory cards are corrupted or baggage lost on leaving event.

I saw a few that walk. I took a step down to get the photo and was reluctant to step closer as it appeared to be getting its back up and looking for a fight. I wasn’t going to press the issue as i just saw a baby water dragons close by.

Would you be open to changing who hosts your servers?

Yeah I think Lemmy is still in the early stages and hope people are open to bending some rules. I have a photo os some Tawny Frogmouths that I might ask to post to Superbowl even though they’re not owls.

Thanks, i just cross posted it there. I checked their rules and they do have some exceptions. I dont know whether the Water Dragons are considered lizards, and im not an expert but i have posted several images to birding after someone else suggested there too.

A long time ago I have used ffmpeg to transition one jpg to another jpg as a gif animiation. I will see about coming back and editing the comment with a reference.

The answer on this page is where I’d start: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/71178068/video-morph-between-two-images-ffmpeg-minterpolate

But I don’t have time to delve into it now. I can see about help if you reply, but it won’t be for a few days.

Thankyou, i’ll update the post.

This inspired me to do some photoshopping.

I don’t know, but one of the other comments said they’re dead pixels, a part of the camera has failed over time.

GPG uses a public key encryption algorithms. Widely known encryption uses symmetric encryption, ie the same passphrase is used to encrypt and decrypt.

Public key encryption algorithms have two keys, a public key and a private key. They are created as a pair.

When someone creates the pair, they can safely widely publish their public key which is essential to encrypt a message to the receiver. But a different key is needed to decrypt the message (the private key).

They can also be used in reverse. A person with a private key can sign a message saying they created a document and it has this hash. We can use their public key to confirm the message they send out has not been altered.

A hash is a computer algorithm which examines a files and creates a short pattern of characters. If the file is changed then the hash of the file also changes.

As a example, If we had a written letter, a very simple hash could be to assign a the number 1, b 2, c 3 etc and full stop could be 27, comma 28, and the digits 0-9 29-38. For every character we keep adding the assigned numbes and keep a total. When we get to the end, we take the last 3 digits and have a number between 000 and 999. (Technically this is more a checksum than a hash, but please just go with it. A hash like MD5 or SHA256 is complex and has ways to detect if the message contents was shuffled that the described hash wouldn’t)

Continuing the example, I may receive a letter from a relative who asked me for some money or something. If I wasnt sure if it was real or not, I could calculate the hash and call the relative and confirm the hash.

But back to your example, there might be a press release from the presidents account saying something like

"Dear constituents, Please find attached a link to download the lastest video update from the presidents. It can be downloaded at URL, and it has a SHA256 hash of abcd12345 Signed President GPGSignature for president@example is ‘ajfuebslch’ " Once we download the file, we can use SHA to generate the has of the file we downloaded and GPG to confirm the signature of the message we received matches the text of the message we received.

If we didn’t have GPG and the Public key of the presidents account, an attacker who makes deep fakes could send us spam purporting to be from them and include in the message the correct hash for their deepfaked video.

I dont quite fully understand how public key encryption works, but the GPG signature allows us to confirm the message was sent by whoever has the matching private key to the public key we’ve got and the hash lets us confirm the file we downloaded is the same as the video the semder wants us to receive.

A wallaby is smaller, i’d say about 2/3rds typically. There can be some absolute unit Kangaroos, about as tall as me and there are videos of humans and kangaroos punching on, and the roo’s will punch on with other roos too. A wallaby might come up to my waist.

I can tell the differences by looking at the faces. The kangaroos nose seems longer and wider where the wallaby’s is shaped to a point. i dont remember seeing any around canberra

Kangaroos usually travel in a mob of about 5-15 with a dominant male and lots of females and joeys but you can catch them alone. They’ll usually hop along if you get too close for comfort.

In Aus, we have 000, triple zero. I think 112 works here too, might just be mobiles though. It used to be triple oh, but some people saw the keypads had letters on them and dialled 777 or whatever number o was on.

I’ve probably seen too much American media. I’m happy for any, even 0118 999 881 999 119 725 … 3 but it might be a bit hard to learn.
