Sefton: sefton at cutjibnewsletter.com | Exciting Innovations in Photography Cafe![]() Grand Central Station, 1929 The caption noted that this shot is no longer possible, as tall buildings outside the station block the sun But what does it mean? Cutting edge baby photography. Yesterday I posted a too-good-to-be-true video I was sure was AI. Today, I present one that's even more obviously fake as f***. I don't even need your help in finding the fakery and AI slop here. High speed photographs of goofy dogs catching treats in dey moufs. Firefighting helicopter drops water with laser accuracy. Osprey catches a barracuda. Cute little lizard hides in water, using his own scuba tank. Four day old giraffe is a shortie. An "ice shove." Big horn sheep butt heads. Humpback mom and calf.

Candace Owens is just awful. I was just reading -- she's posting *private messages* between her and Charlie Kirk well before he met Erika, where Charlie asks her for advice on how to dress for dates and stuff. And accusing TPUSA of financial fraud. Erika ripped her today on FOX without calling her by name. Somebody called Candace a Jezebel. That fits perfectly. TPUSA needs to take the gloves off and just sue and destroy this Jezebel. Posted by: publius, Rascally Mr. Miley (w6EFb) at December 10, 2025 07:31 PM (w6EFb) 18

I guess I don't understand how tilt shift works. I understand how the shot makes the focus pattern of a large field of view mimic the camera focus of a close up shot. But we aren't fooling a camera, we are fooling our brain, eye, nervous system which is much older than any camera. So why does that focus pattern fool our brain? Is it that when we are staring at something very close our eyes produce that same focus pattern too? I guess that could be it. I looked online and all the explanations just dealt with how it mimics a close up camera shot which doesn't really explain the optical illusion.

>> So why does that focus pattern fool our brain?
I got to reading about this. Best I can frame it is it both a real optical effect and a brain effect. The optical effect is to make the brain think it is very shallow depth of field, and thus the objects must be very small.

Rep. Tim Burchett Says NeoCon REPUBLICAN Congressmen Are Sabotaging Trump Ahead of The Midterms. "A lot of folks are undermined. I think you've got staffers in key spots that are crooked. I think they're in bed literally or figuratively with, with lobbyists and they kill very good pieces of legislation." "That's why you see study committees say they're gonna study this bill for a year and then it magically goes away. That's part of the design because they want to undermine Trump. Ultimately, they hate him because he is cutting off their money." "They've got the ear of a paid lobbyist, who's probably taken them out for drinks, steak dinner, maybe they went to some fancy place, Qatar, or Myrtle Beach. You've got speakers and people in leadership and people are undermining them." X video: https://bit.ly/4oNGmG0 Posted by: Clyde Shelton at December 10, 2025 07:53 PM (P5BPp) 58

Maybe a year ago or so. She was not happy, though trying not to complain too much.

I'd say that oil is not generally used for electricity production, but, hey, it's Cuba. As far as I know they might burn bagasse .
Posted by: Hadrian the Seventh at December 10, 2025 07:46 PM (tgvbd) Per a Cuban website, the electrical generation is from natural gas, bunker fuel and fuel oil. I think the bunker fuels is mostly massaged crude, since the term used is "national crude". Maduro could be sending fuel oil or bunker grade.

I agree with runner on the... laziness of threadjacking charges. A thread has to be dead or uninteresting in order for the hoi poli to be jacked. NOW, that has nothing to do with the 100 comment rule to give respect to the guest posters.
Otoh, I also agree with ms oldchick in that some get away with the exact same shit qdp did- it's just they are Hawkeye Pierce to his Frank Burns. Posted by: Aetius451AD work phone at December 10, 2025 09:54 PM (zZu0s) 290

>> but atheists prefer 'common era'
The joke is really on them. "Common era" was first used in some treatise by Kepler (at least as far as they know). Common (or vulgar -- it didn't have the negative connotation it does now) mean not royal/noble. The commoners were using the AD Christian year numbering, as opposed to some regnal year numbering, like The Year of King Chuckles III such-and-such. So "common era" didn't come about to get rid of Christ/Christian. It was only later some of these types began to use it that way. Joke is on them.

Posted by: Braenyard Yup, Ace said about 7-8 years ago he didn't care if people went off topic on the first comment on his posts. That's when aos changed.

Qdp would not understand that. He kept wanting the momes to livestream or do stuff like that. It pissed folks off. This is something that went on for years. It was one of his manias.
Posted by: Aetius451AD --- Ding! That was one of the things that put him on the list first time. He couldn't understand why he/they/it couldn't/wouldn't/ set up a gambling table. He likes to gamble - feels comfortable at the table - but didn't see that desire was crossing the line.

Trump HAS to go after these GOPe pretenders who haven't gotten the memo:
Washington — Republican moderates in the House revolted against leadership on Wednesday as they seek to force a vote on expiring health insurance premium tax credits — an issue that could have major political ramifications for the party in next year's elections. Facing an end-of-year deadline, Republican Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick of Pennsylvania introduced a discharge petition to try to bring a bill to the floor that would extend the Affordable Care Act subsidies by two years. A handful of GOP moderates quickly signed on. The move is the latest rebellion by rank-and-file Republicans to force votes on issues that leadership would rather avoid.
