Yep Farœ Islands can be pretty windy. This here is Múlafossur waterfall, near Gásadalur. One of the most magical places I have ever visited.

We went to the bird cliffs in Iceland and I legit lost my voice because the wind was so strong I had to yell at the top of my lungs for my wife to hear me from a foot away.

(SCENE START)

EXT. GARDEN - DAY

A middle-aged man, GREG, stands at the end of a long, pristine garden hose. He's trying to water a small flower, but only a pathetic, weak stream dribbles out. He shakes the hose, kicks it, and finally gives up with a sigh of defeat.

NARRATOR (V.O.)
(In a dramatic, reassuring voice)
Has low flow got you down? Are you tired of the endless wait... for a satisfying conclusion?

(SCENE SWITCH)

INT. KITCHEN - DAY

Greg's wife, MARTHA, is doing the dishes. Greg is standing at the sink, staring blankly into the basin. She looks at him with concern.

MARTHA
Honey, the faucet is on. What are you doing?

GREG
(Muttering, dejected)
Just... contemplating the stream. It's… a metaphor for my life now.

(SCENE SWITCH)

INT. RESTROOM - NIGHT

Greg is in a public restroom. He stands at a urinal, a determined but strained look on his face. Next to him, a younger, much more confident man, CHAD, finishes up with a powerful, satisfyingly loud "whoosh." Chad zips up and winks at Greg on his way out. Greg just looks at his own anemic effort and sighs, a single tear rolling down his cheek.

NARRATOR (V.O.)
There was a time when you could unleash a torrent. Now, it’s more of a... trickle.

(SCENE SWITCH)

INT. DOCTOR'S OFFICE - DAY

Greg is sitting in a doctor's office, looking sheepish. The doctor, a no-nonsense woman named DR. EVANS, is holding up a small, branded bottle.

DR. EVANS
Well, Greg, the good news is, there’s an answer.

(SCENE SWITCH)

EXT. GARDEN - DAY (REPRISE)

Greg, now looking confident and rejuvenated, stands at the end of the same garden hose. He turns on the spigot. A mighty, powerful torrent of water erupts, soaking the flower bed, the lawn, and finally, drenching the nosy neighbor, who is looking over the fence. Greg smiles triumphantly.

NARRATOR (V.O.)
Introducing Niagara™. The powerful new solution for low flow.

(SCENE SWITCH)

INT. KITCHEN - DAY (REPRISE)

Martha is at the sink. Greg walks in, a mischievous look on his face. He turns on the faucet, and a magnificent, forceful stream of water sprays into the sink. Martha looks at him, a spark of pride in her eyes.

MARTHA
Well, look at that. Someone’s got their flow back.

GREG
(Winking)
Just needed a little Niagara™.

(SCENE SWITCH)

NARRATOR (V.O.)
So, if low flow has you feeling like a slow leak...

(FADE TO BLACK)

(Superimposed text on screen: NIAGRA™ - Restore the Torrent.)

NARRATOR (V.O.)
...ask your doctor if Niagara™ is right for you.

(Superimposed text on screen: ASK YOUR DOCTOR IF NIAGARA™ IS RIGHT FOR YOU.)

(VOICEOVER: RAPID-FIRE LEGAL DISCLAIMER)
Side effects may include... a sudden urge to water plants excessively, an increased desire to use public restrooms, and a higher-than-average water bill. In rare cases, Niagara™ may cause spontaneous car washing, sprinkler-related incidents, and an unexpected interest in decorative fountains.

(The sound of a powerful, rushing waterfall fades in and out)

(SCENE END)

Found the CloudFactory!

Feels like Ireland

Mist.

The "joke"
As you may have learnt in Last Week Tonight S12E23, "Mist" means "crap" in German.

Oops, there goes gravity.

[–] AmazingAwesomator@lemmy.world 5 points 3 weeks ago

forgot to set CONSTANTS.GRAVITY as const. tech debt - bottom of backlog.

I can't tell for sure if this is genai or not, but if it is than damn the object permanence is getting better. A bit scary.

[–] ArmoredThirteen@lemmy.zip 7 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

To me the scary part is how many pictures and videos of real things there are that people think are AI. Another comment mentions this is Múlafossur Waterfall and it does get this windy

[–] sturger@sh.itjust.works 2 points 3 weeks ago

Yes, but my lame "It's a glitch in the Matrix" jokes might make one person laugh.

[–] balsoft@lemmy.ml 1 points 3 weeks ago

I think with this one I was about 50/50 on whether it's AI or not. The color correction and the camera movement did seem a bit sus, but as I've said the object permanence was just too good.

[–] MonkderVierte@lemmy.zip 3 points 3 weeks ago

No, windy day. And it's older than AI.

Actually someone put the water cycle in fast forwards,
