Icelandic Vision LabHello world! Elon Musk picking a twitter fight with Icelandic philanthropist and man of the year 2022 Haraldur Thorleifsson ended up being the final push that we needed, so now we are here on Mastodon. We don't know how any of this works, but follow us for posts on vision science, cognitive psychology, cognitive science, cognitive neuroscience, and stupid memes #VisionScience #CognitivePsychology #CognitiveScience #CognitiveNeuroscience #StupidMemes #ThanksForPointingOutHashtagsInComments
Uncle PJ@icevislab Oh, I am HERE for the stupid memes. Let me have some of those sweet, sweet Icelandic memes! Go ahead, lay it on me.
Apojaap@unclepj Hi there, here is a stupid meme as requested. Origins unknown unfortunately.
@icevislab Oh, thatβs the good stuff!
loratadin eichkat3r@icevislab @unclepj as a proud citizen of izeland i approve this meme
Mathias@m @icevislab @unclepj it was just a wild guess and i hoped to end up in germany
but france is ok as well i suppose
@eichkat3r @icevislab @unclepj think it depends on if the line has to go trough both Ireland and iceland. But germany definitely will cause an overflow. Could be that it actually ends up to be Iceland thanπ
Stas Kolenikov@icevislab @unclepj I am sure the #GIS people will correct you as you were supposed to put the arc of the big circle rather than a straight line
GunChleocA map showing Iceland with a downward diagonal line across the sea. The line is labeled:
Ideland
Ieeland
Ifeland
etc.
following the alphabet all the way down to Ireland.
@gunchleoc @unclepj Thank you, will keep alt text in mind next time.
@icevislab
Thanks for caring!
Your server is still on Mastodon version 4.0.2, so you can't edit image descriptions after you have posted. You could edit the post, delete the image and reupload though.
I also follow @PleaseCaption to remind me if I forget an image description.

AlicePaulThanks for this!
I used to follow @TerribleMaps on Twitter.
They always deliver a laugh.

Elaine Anderson@icevislab I'm just here for the memes. OK. Just kidding. I'm interested in vision suddenly.
Tom@icevislab @unclepj that is absolutely awful. Youβre gonna fit right in. Welcome!
levampyreYou could add some alt-texts into your memes and other images you post to show that you care for the visually impaired and people participating with screen reader.
alt-text: The picture shows a map detail of Iceland and Ireland connected by a red dotted line. The line is continually labelled with country names starting with Iceland ending with Ireland. While the middle letter between i and e runs through the alphabet, like Iceland, Ideland, Ieeland, Ifeland, etc.
@levampyre @unclepj Thank you, that is a good suggestion for next time.
@icevislab You can also edit you toots to insert alt-texts or correct mistakes later on. Some user clients might not support this feature. But when you browse the website of your server it should be there. Editing toots is generally possible. Like so. @unclepj
πΈππππππ₯ ππ π¦πππ€ πHi Iceland! that gives me a cunning idea (I do audio morphing)
Kai Bernauπ honk if you love interpolation
Morre@icevislab @unclepj Looks like a map of waypoints on an airway
