When people tell me "Why do you only listen to such old-fashioned music, your taste in music is hopelessly outdated!", I send them these 3 pictures

Yea I can’t imagine why anyone thought this dipshit was defending rape…I mean aside from the over half a dozen posts where he defended rape as “not immoral”, literally said “No. In fact, the word "rape"…didn't even exist until the 1800s.” and arguing that being “owned”* wasn’t “horrific”
Complete mystery why people went after him, must be some weird BlueSky thing. 😂

OTD 5 years ago, I posted this:
So, in the last 24 hours we had
- Zombie minks in Denmark
- almost 400 km/h wind,
- thunderstorms and lightning in Iceland
Either someone is playing an updated version of Jumanji, or some Nordic director is shooting a video clip for a "Thriller"/"Bohemian Rhapsody" remix.

As Cyber Threats Escalate, the National Vulnerability Database Is Falling Behind
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is struggling.
It faces a growing backlog to process data in its vulnerability repository, which publicly shares information assessing and detailing mitigation solutions against new cyber exploits.
With nearly 1,800 new reported vulnerabilities sitting in a queue for analysis this year, delays in processing leave the United States increa…

Those who follow me may be feeling overwhelmed by the number of appeals for help from people in #Gaza that I'm reposting.
I am sorry; I feel overwhelmed myself. I cannot help most of these people. My resources are very limited. I can't tell you whether one person's need is more urgent than another's.
But this need is real and desperate. Bombs are still falling; aid is sti…

Some might say spending my retirement endlessly revisiting my books, films, and record collection is wallowing in my past, but frankly, I honestly don't remember most of them; it's more like getting trapped in a candy store 😅

Sounds easy, looks nice: Crossmodal transfer of auditory processing fluency to visual object preference https://link.springer.com/article/10.3758/s13414-025-03177-5

Sounds easy, looks nice: Crossmodal transfer of auditory processing fluency to visual object preference - Attention, Perception, & Psychophysics
Fluent (i.e., rapid and efficient) processing of perceptual objects is vital for humans to successfully navigate their environments. The experience of fluent processing per se tends to trigger positive affect; however, this affect is often misattributed by perceivers to the objects themselves, meaning that easy-to-perceive objects are judged more positively. These fluency-based preference effects have been robustly demonstrated unimodally, and specifically in situations in which fluency and pre…

Perovskite solar cells just cleared a major hurdle toward commercialization.
Researchers developed a new two-dimensional interlayer that kept modules running at 95% efficiency after 5,000 hours of brutal light, heat, and UV exposure. The breakthrough uses neutral triazine molecules and co-crystal engineering that slots right into existing manufacturing lines.

Researchers achieve record perovskite solar module stability under light, heat, and UV stress
An international research team has developed a new two-dimensional perovskite interlayer based on a co-crystal engineering strategy for more robust perovskite films. It demonstrated improved performance in small area perovskite solar cells and, in a 48 cm2 module, contributed to retain 95% of initial efficiency after 5,000 h.
