YouTube video by Benn Jordan I Saved a PNG Image To A Bird

Holy shit. This guy saved a PNG to a bird.

(he drew a bird into a spectrogram, played that sound to a starling, and the starling reproduced it back to him with enough accuracy he got his bird drawing back in their call's spectrogram) www.youtube.com/watch?v=hCQC...

She’ll bring me plush toys to “babysit” while she goes off to do other dog things 😭

My dog just got up from the bed, went to the living room to get a ball, brought it back to the bed, deposited it beside me, and then curled up to go back to sleep.

Molly White @molly0xFFF congratulations! you have just invented libraries
