Gertie the Dinosaur - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gertie_... I went to the Brussels Comics museum on recommendation from @nwhyte.bsky.social and saw it there. It's so ridiculously charming. #animation

The Chain Bridge against a night sky background. The sky is black and the bridge is illuminated with lots of white lights placed on it.

For the "accessibility" prompt on day 7 of the #30DayMapChallenge, I decided to investigate how accessible the default #ggplot2 colours are to people with different types of colour vision deficiency (and for different numbers of colours used). 🎨

#RStats #DataViz
A 5x5 grid of maps of France. Each row contains areas shaded with a different number of colours, and each column shows how it looks with different types of colour vision deficiency. None are accessible, except when using only two colours.

Snapshot USA has been collecting annual wildlife camera data since 2019. Might be on the shorter side for timescale but the spatial coverage is excellent (all 50 states). The data are tidy, annotated, and ready to go.

#Roofman - it relies heavily on Channing Tatum's charisma (and Kirsten Dunst). It's not the comedy its trailer pretends it is, but it's solid. #films

Friend I went with wants me to warn people that the camera work gave him motion sickness.

'Oversteer' is when the rear of the car tends to slide wide during cornering, requiring opposite steering lock to correct. 'Understeer' is when the front of the car tends to push wide, not turning sharply enough.

What do the terms 'oversteer' and 'understeer' refer to regarding a car's handling balance?

Focusing on all the wrong things, but Laimer has the most assists in the Bundesliga?!!!!!!
thetransferflow.bsky.social The Transfer Flow @thetransferflow.bsky.social · Oct 10
Ekitike and Marmoush were big losses, but Frankfurt's attack hasn't dropped off at all.

The two youngsters replacing their production are must-watch talents.
