That saucer is rolling coal.
So a pure asshole is at the helm.
That’s a bit chauvinistic don’t you think? Some species don’t develop past the deuterosomic stage, but that doesn’t mean you have to be rude about it.
Chauvinistic? Snort!!! Only pure bred assholes do this
I was making a biology joke, rolling coal sucks
Funnily enough, I saw this meme earlier, and thought it was an AI rendering of the world’s fastest manhole cover. Then I scrolled Lemmy, and here I am.
It is a cover, but a few orders of magnitude bigger!
Perfect
Boo
Did you ask a fucking AI to help you put text on this, or why is it so grainy?
No one’s ever made a photo grainy before, it had to be artificial intelligence!
Sure.
Anyway, here’s how the pictures compare in any image editor (the darker the more identical the pixel):

Notice that I lined the UFO up, but the skyline is now all out of whack, which seems to be a lot of work to give to oneself if all you wanted to do was add 4 words. Similarly, I can line up parts of the skyline, but now the UFO is at the wrong place:

In conclusion: I am pretty sure it was done with AI.
Upvoted for getting your hands dirty with the analysis. The grain doesn’t mean anything imo but yeah that alignment is fishy
I feel like it’s more likely the creator just moved the UFO for some reason, since lining the skylines puts just the UFO out of place.
You cannot align the cranes left of the explosion AND the warehouse to the right AND the smokestacks at the far right either, they, or rather it, moved random parts of the skyline around.
So we’re either looking at
- Somebody photoshopped the composition of the original image
- The original image was fake and the person adding the text messed with the placement of the layers when adding text.
- “chatgpt add the following words to the bottom of this image and make it look more like the “I want to believe” poster from x-files”
Both Occam’s and Hanlon’s razors clearly point to option 3
First they came for the artists, then they came for the guys that put text on images.
I could easily see that being an artistic choice to add film grain to the picture for the bit.
Sure, however, it is not in this case.
The best part of this is it was hit by a Russian AA missile.
The writers of this reality are clearly just phoning it in.

I went ahead and made the lemmy modification.
Mine are still orange.

I’m so sorry to see that.
Source on that? That would be hilarious
Wheeeeeeee
That footage was hilarious, that one interceptor firing vertically 30 seconds after the drone had passed was peak comedy.
No fucking way.
The roof
The roof
All jokes aside, I’m seriously impressed that the roof structure maintained it’s integrity and didn’t just shred to pieces in the explosion
It’s probably a floating roof. In the petro they use this for several reasons. Less contact between the product and air reduces oxidation. There is also less gass formed above the product reducing odour. But funny enough, it is mainly used to reduce risk of explosion …
It’s probably a floating roof.
Sure is.
Is this the oil price cap?
Great, now we have to worry about Yuri.
the only YURI is the YURi prime.
It’s the 1,584th of February 2022… Can’t take much longer!!!111
30 days has September, April, June and November; all the rest have 31; except February which has 28, 29 or 1584!
the daleks have descended onto moscow.
You hate to see it when thinking about the environment.
You love to see it when thinking about Putin getting briefed what’s on fire this time.
Yes the roof fell off in this case, but I don’t want anyone thinking that Moscow isn’t safe.
“Then the oil from the coach lamps ignites and there is a second explosion, out of which rolls—because there are certain conventions, even in tragedy—a burning wheel.”

Why is the explosion wearing a Kippah?
I might have found a clue ;D

Nah, this is the movie poster for the Russian version of “Independence day”
Russia TV News: play it in reverse so it looks like our dear leader put a lid on the issue immediately.
