devbo, in Its diving speed during flight is more than 300 km (186 miles) per hour, making it not only the world’s fastest bird but also the world’s fastest animal.

falling is cheating.

Seriously, I’m sure we could find some shark with a faster terminal speed if dropped from high enough…

Pirasp,

The real trick is that these Falcons exceed their terminal velocity in those dives. So not just falling but falling with added power and a hell of a lot of style!

Djinn,

It’s not flying, it’s falling with style.

MashedTech, in When an eel has a maw with a phyrangeal jaw, that's a moray!

It’s not going to give a good blowjob.

What is non-structural geology? Is there such a thing as purely decorative basalt columns? Non-load-bearing mountains?

What? Literally no part of this makes sense. Especially not anything involving Lan al'Mandragoran

Khanzarate,

Mandragora is the scientific name of the plant that has the same three names Bilbo lists.

Don't worry, it makes zero sense. Especially the Wheel of Time part that OP is trying to cram in somehow (as someone who knows those books cover to cover). I think OP had a lil too much meth

Khrux,

I’m pro methposting, is that allowed.

LimitedExpress,

Aww. But I uovoted for the WoT reference!

Lmao I think I don’t want to know what I’d actually do on that. It was just such a non-sequitur meme I couldn’t figure a title out. 😅

sicarius, (edited ) in Its diving speed during flight is more than 300 km (186 miles) per hour, making it not only the world’s fastest bird but also the world’s fastest animal.

In that case Felix Baumgartner is the fastest human being.
With a top speed of 843.6 mike’s per hour.
Ussain Bolt and suck it.
Edit: if the autocorrect mistake is funny, just leave tit as tit is.

Denvil,

Erm ACTually, assuming Mike is 6ft tall, thats only 5000 ish ft per hour, less than 1 mph. That’s slower than Ussain Bolt!!

Brilliant title. You put a song in my head.

abbadon420,

Look around on this sub, It’s a trend

When you take a pic with your phone and the weird things are shown, that’s a moire.

When you zoom in a hair and the grid’s everywhere, that’s a moire.

Mouselemming,

When the parallel lines are just slightly inclined, that’s a-moiré!

@BroBot9000@lemmy.world avatar

Was that line for captain disillusion or am I remembering that wrong?

TacoNissan,

It’s from an xkcd

YES!! Thanks, that was driving me crazy.

Captain Disillusion did a whole series on video technology and I falsely remembered it coming from there.

solariplex, in When a grid's misaligned with the one that's behind, that's a Moiré

Thanks, TIL!

One of the craziest interactions I have seen was when a Peregrine Falcon attacked a Canada Goose in flight. We were watching the goose fly up canyon and the peregrine must have thought it was too close to its nest or something. Only time I've heard a goose make a sound like that!!

@fossilesque@mander.xyz avatar

I’ll allow it.

abbadon420,

You can get a master’s in art, so it must be a science, right?!

MFAs might have more talent than my MSc lmao.
