Does it really liquify your liver? That's hardcore.

Destroying Angel? Not a mushroom guy, just googling...

[–] dustyData@lemmy.world 18 points 5 months ago

That's an hardcore but apt name for a mushroom.

Also not a mushroom guy, but the light green cap suggests death cap to me

[–] Karyoplasma@discuss.tchncs.de 15 points 5 months ago

It's a North American Destroying Angel (Amanita bisporigera). Same genus as the death cap.

Yeah definitely the destroying angel! They're hardcore!

If I ever say I'm going to forage for mushrooms, it's a cry for help

[–] Mouselemming@sh.itjust.works 8 points 5 months ago

Well yeah, you'll want help carrying the basket when you've foraged so many

Mushroom hunting is really fun and rewarding.

It isn't worth me being a dumbfuck misidentifying a mushroom and dying painfully.

I'll keep buying them.

Just look for mushrooms that are easy to id. That's what I do. I only go for morels or chicken of the woods.

25 years ago I made an AI Neural Network to identify mushrooms, at the end of the project I came to the conclusion it was necessary to dissect mushrooms and ask questions regarding smell and texture to identify correctly, and even then the possibility of error made the program unethical to produce. I’m so glad AI is being used responsibly a quarter of a century later.
