Aero the Acro-Bat: diagonal attacks
In the rash of character-based platformers following the rivalry of Sonic and Mario, there must have been many which were unfairly overlooked. Aero is not one of these; it sold well enough to get a sequel, so was not overlooked; and if it had been so it wouldn't have been unfairly.

uspol, palestine, gaza, biden
okay, I think I largely agree with #PodSaveAmerica about #palestine / #biden - like...
dataset:
1. (several months, years) "we won't even say we'll condition it, we'll ask them in private, our support is iron clad" -> zero change in gaza
2. one phone call where "if you don't change we might have to change 1" -> israel changes under the slightest hint of pressure** *
*the aid has to continue flowing for the change to be considered effective
**if israel doesn't change their assault on civilians, we'll need the administration to follow through AND CONDITION aid. otherwise item 2 backfires.
it's almost as if leverage works?

Someone posted about how AI art seems “soulless” perhaps because it doesn’t do anything to help you connect with the person/artist who created it. I think I agree with that view. As an artist I crave that connection with people... I sold a bunch of prints last week and it was amazing having someone see something I created and having some feeling of liking it because we have some shared experience and that is the connection thing. More of that please.

Quadratic perturbations of the Schwarzschild black hole: The algebraically special sector
We investigate quadratic algebraically special perturbations (ASPs) of the Schwarzschild black hole. Their dynamics are derived from the expansion up to second order in perturbation of the most general algebraically special twisting vacuum solution of general relativity. Following this strategy, we present analytical expressions for the axial-axial, polar-polar and polar-axial source terms entering in the dynamical equations. We show that these complicated inhomogeneous equations can be solved …

This morning’s #SpammerDuJour is from the unending fount of poop that is my day job's "careers" inbox, on our .ch domain. Most of that flow is a single uninteresting German-language spammer who always hits twice in the same round, recently advertising office chairs. Sent via the same handful of shoddy VPS providers and networks full of compromised personal machines. Boring.
