Any guesses what could this be, in France?
  • That is a good guess!

    Never seen them done in circles like that. Only in (mostly) straight lines. But maybe they do it differently in France!

  • Interesting! Ill need to check that out when i am at a pc again. Its true, phones are not ideal foe everything..

  • They dont seem to hold water really or even be connected to water at all.

    If you notice, the first picture in the post comment, shows the same location slightly zoomed out. There you may notice some larger areas that seem like ponds. But the smaller patches seem to be just cleared earth patches

  • Can you explain what this isk

    Over at [email protected] we are struggling to fins out what these circular interconnected earth patches are

    They are located slightly east of Le Bout De Taut (Coordinates: 50°27’07,38" N 1°38’34,17" E)

  • They are really strange. On google earth i was able to see some older picture of the same place. I dont think they are water ponds. In the earlier pictures its a bit more clear that they are earth patches

  • Thanks!

    Time flies by!

  • Congrats to Boeing on their new semi-permanent ISS module!
  • That looks like the island of Crete, in the left side...

  • Strange lakes in Australia
  • Sorry, i never noted the coordinates. Its somewhere in Australia and my guess is south west but not generally sure

  • Strange lakes in Australia
  • I can't say for sure, as I didn't note where I found it (aside from Australia), but my guess is some sort of salt lake / salt extraction facility

  • Strange lakes in Australia
  • it is very likely yeah! I can't remember where exactly I found this, aside from somewhere in Australia, but I did find multiple salt sites that looked very similar.

  • Supreme Court Justice warns Americans: "The president is now a king".
  • The way I understand it, if he breaks those limitations in what powers he has, there are no consequences

  • Trump asks for conviction to be overturned after immunity ruling
  • Why not also ask for sunshine every Thursday of the year now that you're at it

  • The President Can Now Assassinate You, Officially
  • So letting district courts decide if an action is or is not an official act, is just a joke if anything a president does is official act

  • Now The EU Council Should Finally Understand: No One Wants “Chat Control”
  • From my point of view there are some that are ok and some that are terrible and get in the way no matter how you use them

  • The President Can Now Assassinate You, Officially
  • Then it is a joke of a decision

  • Facebook and Instagram’s “pay or consent” ad model violates the DMA, says the EU
  • Oh yeah! I dropped out of all META platforms back in November when they implemented the Pay or OK requirement.

    I can still have an opinion on it though. I am not against ads. I had just opted out of targeted ads. With the Pay or OK though they forced me to have to accept targeted ads.

    Even if i paid the crazy amount they were asking (in my case the equivalent of 3 Netflix subs) they could still track me and suggest content , even from commercial accounts. So i opted out of META instead

    Rimini - Italy

    I only noticed today, due to the Tour de France finishing there, but Rimini has some huge beaches! Also they seem to have constructed some sort of wave breaker, to give calmer waters for visitors (?). It does look amazin from a distance

    Slightly furhter north, still in Rimini, but on the other side of "Porto di Rimini" the beaches get even larger!

    ORP Wicher ORP Wicher (English: Whirlwind) was a Project 30bis destroyer, transferred to the People's Republic of Poland from the Soviet Union in 1958.[2] She was built by the Zhdanov shipyard in Leningrad and originally commissioned into the Soviet Baltic Fleet as the Skoryy ("Rapid") in 1951, and transferred to Poland in 1958 together with a second ship, ORP Grom.

    what is the worst case scenario that can happen at the presidential debate?

    Waiting for the presidential debate feels like waiting for a train to crash. But how bad can it be?

    What are your guesses at what will happen? I am curious to compare the answers to what actually happens tonight

    Experimental solar plant in Germany

    Testsing and development of components and systems for commercial solar thermal power plants. The aim is to make solar thermal power plants more efficient. They also test processes for solar water splitting, the production of solar fuels and the use of solar heat in industrial processes.

    More than 2,000 movable mirrors (heliostats) cover an area of around ten hectares in front of Jülich's two solar towers. They catch the sunlight, concentrate it and direct it onto the two solar towers.

    In the solar tower power plant, a volumetric receiver at the top of the tower absorbs the concentrated sunlight and uses it to heat the surrounding air to up to 700 degrees Celsius. A steam generator inside the tower uses this to heat water into steam, which drives a turbine that produces electricity via a generator.

    guinea pigs @lemmy.world cosmicrookie @lemmy.world

    22 days old boys

    These are babies that we foster for the local animal wellfare. Their mother never really recovered from giving birth but the boys are doing great!

    More than 200 very hungry animals were found at the home of the deceased owner. Mostly guinea pigs, rats and snakes. We took 3 females in, who were very close to giving birth. They each had 2 babies the day after we got them!

    Support your local animal wellfare if you can! Even a small amount goes a long way!

    Murasaki Golf Course, Japan

    If there is one thing that I keep noticing, when I look for cool places from above, it is golf courses! There are so many, and they are everywhere! This one is Murasaki Golf Club, with 27 holes, and 108 par.

    The largest golf course I could find, is Mission Hill Resort in Shenzhen China. It has 12 courses, with 18 holes. 216 holes in total. Id does, IMO not look quite as good as the one from Murasaki

    The Le Mans 24h circuit

    This may not look like much if you don't watch motorsports, and in particular the 24hr Endurance race in Le Mans, but if you do, you may be able to identify the classic track on this map!

    Bellow are a few closeups of some of the most legendary corners
