Have a joyful #DayOfDionysos here at Erotic Mythology! 🍇
"Dionysos mingles in the wine new powers,
Sending high adventure to the thoughts of men."
Bacchylides, fragment "For Alexander son of Amyntas", from a 1st century papyrus
🏛 Roman bronze figure of Dionysos, dated 1st century CE, now in private collection
@…

This bronze sculpture is an exquisitely detailed representation of the god Dionysos, whose cult was one of the most popular in ancient times. Here, the god is nude, with a mantle that gently lies on his right leg. He is holding a bunch of grapes with his left hand, and a rhyton (drinking horn) with the right. The god is youthful and joyfully gazes forwards, with a crown of ivy leaves set upon his long flowing hair. These features clearly resemble those of the life-size Roman marble sculpture o…

"The Wager-a tale of shipwreck, mutiny and murder", by David Grann. You get exactly the history lesson you expect: the hardship of life at sea in the 18th century, the lack of medical understanding, and the collapse of civil behaviour under life-threatening situations. And the incredible survival of some of the crew, and the following courtmarshall.

#SIGBOVIK is at it again: "Factoring up to 255 “with” a Quantum Computer"
"[…] in this paper, I will appear to succeed at factoring by failing with style"

The heading and abstract of a paper from the SIGBOVIK 2025 proceedings. Falling with Style: Factoring up to 255 “with” a Quantum Computer By Craig Gidney April 1, 2025 Abstract In this paper, I explain how I factored all numbers up to 255 using Shor’s algorithm on a real quantum computer. I performed exactly the classical preprocessing specified by Shor’s algorithm, exactly the quantum circuit requested by Shor’s algorithm, and exactly the post-processing specified by Shor’s algorith…

As a non-binary person living in #Bergen, #Norway, this video made me cry from pure euphoria, a wave of relief knowing I am seen just as I am.
I hope it brings you the same confidence and happiness, showing that you are truly seen and celebrated for who you are.

A person waving a non-binary flag. Overlayed is Trump speaking about a new policy that there are 'only two gender'. There are 4 news about attacks on trans, non-binary and intersex people from US and Merz' CDU. The overlay disappears and the song 'Another Love' by Tom Odell starts. People are shown in the city, in meadows and in front of protests waving a non-binary flag. On top of the video the following text is shown: 'But the truth is... No matter how many people deny our existence. No matte…

Wafer-scale Programmed Assembly of One-atom-thick Crystals
Crystalline films offer various physical properties based on the modulation of their thicknesses and atomic structures. The layer-by-layer assembly of atomically thin crystals provides powerful means to arbitrarily design films at the atomic-level, which are unattainable with existing growth technologies. However, atomically-clean assembly of the materials with high scalability and reproducibility remains challenging. We report programmed crystal assembly (PCA) of graphene and monolayer hexagon…

In regards to the effects of tariffs on shipping #PhysicalMedia into the US: https://www.discogs.com/about/news/united-states-tariff-impact-music-media-2025/ TL;DR: Books, records, posters etc. (anything that fall under the Media Mail designation) cannot be tariffed because they are explicitly carved out exception. It is incumbent on importers to make sure they identify the packages correctly.

MASH: A Multiplatform and Multimodal Annotated Dataset for Societal Impact of Hurricane
Natural disasters cause multidimensional threats to human societies, with hurricanes exemplifying one of the most disruptive events that not only caused severe physical damage but also sparked widespread discussion on social media platforms. Existing datasets for studying societal impacts of hurricanes often focus on outdated hurricanes and are limited to a single social media platform, failing to capture the broader societal impact in today's diverse social media environment. Moreover, existin…
