Researchers at the University of Ottawa, in collaboration with Danilo Zia and Fabio Sciarrino from the Sapienza University of Rome, recently demonstrated a novel technique that allows the visualization of the wave function of two entangled photons, the elementary particles that constitute light, in real-time.

So I got her watching a few animes in the past year, our first was beastars, she liked it, then full metal, also one she liked, I showed her some space dandy but she wasn’t totally interested, and it’s been tough to find one that really hooked her. Then I found it, one day of just “eh whatever I’ll put this on” we...
Christopher Nolan raised many an eyebrow in late 2022 when he revealed that his upcoming World War II biopic — Oppenheimer (opening on the big screen July 21) — had achieved the effect of a detonating atomic bomb without the use of CG.
Let’s talk about boomer shooters. What are you looking for? What’s your top 3 list of attributes a boomer shooter MUST have and 1 thing that eliminates it from the classification? Do you look for LofFi sound tracks? Are voxel graphics allowed? Does everything have to be a sprite? Can you make a boomer shooter in Unreal...
Honestly, I'd say putting gameplay and interesting mechanics before graphical fidelity would be enough. I think that's what makes current boomer shooters so good. They might look old but their gameplay dynamics should be creative and avant garde.
Developed at Caltech’s Center for Autonomous Systems and Technologies, a new robot can autonomously choose from a variety of motions to move through a complex environment.
I'm changing my stance on the whole Meta/project92 thing after reading this article. I think the entire* fediverse should block project92 by default. Later, some instances can re-evaluate whether to maintain those blocks, once we have a better idea of what the benefits and consequences of federating will be:...
People have been bringing up the Google eating xmpp thing so there is precedent. It's also not as if meta is innocent to apply innocent until proven guilty.
But also if dealing with an explicitly profit seeking corpo, why would you trust them unless you had very good reason to? I believe the burden of evidence is on that side given the context.
Thought I would share some of my own gameplay. The player bases got a big overhaul in the last update, when they're actively defended they can be pretty tough to crack(look at the alert timer to see how long that one actually lasted, I was off doing other things in between)

I'll say it, game graphics are good enough now, we don't need to keep pushing them for this to be the consequence. keep the graphics as they are and focus the next 10y on just improving production pipeline for the existing tech, different game experiences & alleviating crunch.
I am listening to the OST for The Case Study of Vanitas and being reminded of just how great the anime was to watch. My feeling is that it is underrated, but I'm not sure it is really, but perhaps what it really is... is 'unfound' by it's core audience that is clearly out there. For me it's one of my great anime series of the...
