Edit: Just realized the correct name for the tree is actually maple.

Scientists in China have demonstrated a wireless power transmission system that uses a ground-based microwave emitter to beam energy to an antenna array mounted on the aircraft’s underside. Importantly, they were able to do this while both the drone and charging system were in motion.

Coming up in my garden right next to some forest (primarily oak mixed with beech, birch, maple) in southwest Sweden. Last year i dug the area out and removed (most) roots. Not much came up but this little sprout. I suppose it could be roots reaching in from the adjacent forest.

Eine etwas ältere Situation ist mir eingefallen: da hatte ich einige Leute massiert und alle haben gesagt dass sie das sehr entspannend fanden. Dann wollte eine weitere Person auch und Mensch fand das so entspannend, das Mensch dabei stöhnte.

A nice spring beach that barely anyone uses 😊

Today’s game is some more Ghost of Tsushima. I haven’t been neglecting this in the background, unlike some other games i’ve picked up (*cough cough* Final Fantasy 14 *cough*). I have though been wandering around doing side stuff. I namely did the quest that gets you the blow darts. While doing the quest i saw this dock with a sign that showed a guy bowing. I did that but nothing happened so i’m not sure what i missed.

After reaching enlightenment at Bodhgaya, Shakyamuni meditated and fasted for forty-nine days. Thus, showing him as an emaciated renouncer relates to his enlightenment and his status as a yogic ascetic who has ultimate control over his body. Other characteristics that relate to his enlightenment include the kusha grass on which he sits and the scene on the base, which shows the Buddha’s first sermon, at Sarnath.

One of the most revered contemporary self-taught artists, Dial integrated into his work mass-produced objects and organic materials, all infused with rich symbolic resonances. His impressive History Refused to Die incorporates torn and stained clothing, wire, and other common materials as well as okra stalks and roots. The plant serves as a metaphor for the shared history—the “roots"—of people whose personal genealogies tie back to Africa. Widely associated with Southern cuisine, okra is indigenous to Africa and, like many other foodstuffs, came to the Americas via the international slave trade. Its presence in Dial’s sculpture evokes the ecological transplantation that paralleled the forced displacement and enslavement of millions of Africans throughout the New World.

Feel like the castle could look better with a little less color. Maybe I’ll give it another go one day.

This is a long exposure shot made by combining the 275 individual 360° photos taken to make this timelapse video. It’s only 90 minutes worth of shots, but the star trails are quite visible - and so is the gorgeous northern light show we got last night.

This is absolutely insane, this supposedly is built to handle our identification and personal information of the whole EU.

When I set sail on the MV NorSky in the summer of 2008 to probe the depths of Manus Basin off the coast of Papua New Guinea, I believed in the promise of deep-sea mining. As an early-career deep-sea ecologist, I was swayed by arguments in favor of this emerging industry. It offered a new way to obtain the metals needed for the renewable energy revolution, one allegedly free of the human rights and environmental abuses of terrestrial mining. The company was Nautilus Minerals, and the plan was to mine an active hydrothermal vent field called Solwara I.

Hat echt peinlich lange gedauert, bis ich gemerkt habe, dass das Bild auf der Zeitschriften-Ablage nicht die aktuelle Ausgabe ist…
