Not really a fan, but it's pretty clear still. The "Star Trek ship" (Starship Enterprise?) isn't exactly an obscure reference. ๐Ÿ˜„

Yeah that caption was about as bad as they come. Cool mushrooms though.

I just see a log? Is it like a captains log?

Discovery's propulsion system is really getting out of hand.

Oh shoot I sees it, does that mean I'm subconsciously a nerd

A nerd? On my science forum?

... It's more likely than you think!

I mean it's a living ship, clearly it's Moya

It's a wraith hive ship.

It sucks that potentially neat real pictures will never be trusted as authentic with AI generation.

Photoshop made it somewhat questionable over the years, but there were still some signs and levels of difficulty.

Now? next to impossible to know.

Not exactly scientific, but it didn't look fake to me.

Looks fake to me, the way the caps and stems are aligned doesn't make sense with how mushrooms grow and there's no way they could have an inrolled cap that flat without gills/pores running down the stem. There's no space for the cap to have unrolled into that shape.

I think you're right. The magic is gone now.
