Numerical effects on the stripping of dark matter and stars in IllustrisTNG galaxy groups and clusters
The stellar haloes and intra-cluster light around galaxies are crucial test beds for dark matter (DM) physics and galaxy formation models. We consider the role that the numerical resolution plays in the modelling of these systems by studying the stripping of satellites in the IllustrisTNG cosmological simulations. We focus on host haloes of total halo mass $M_\mathrm{200c}=10^{12-15}M_{\odot}$ and satellites of stellar mass $>10^{7}$$M_{\odot}$, and compare stellar halo / satellite properties a…

Um random guy selling BBQ in the middle of the Duboce dog area? Bold move.

The only valid use for AI is making silly pet pictures sillier. However it totally changed Barney's breed.

New version of Android "Android 16 QPR1" is now out, that's supposed to be a minor quarterly release. No idea if they fixed all the bugs I've been finding. But they've changed the UI around. Again. For instance the icons showing WiFi and cellular signal strength have changed.
Maybe it's better, maybe it's worse, but I grow weary of these changes. Some images here.

I watched "Thief" (1981), directed by Michael Mann. Sort of a heist movie, sort of a mob movie, but aspires to be a Cassavetes movie. An interesting mix, and really well shot. Ryan Coogler said this was the film that made "wet-downs" a thing, and judging by all of the wet streets & sidewalks, I believe it.
Features Willie Nelson in a minor role. Also features a soundtrack by Tangerine Dream.

Not only Gmail has been infested with bad AI, but also other Google products. Chrome has a "help me write" feature. You can [disable it in the AI innovations settings](chrome://settings/ai). Unfortunately the intrusive popup is still showing up in Gmail and I can't find any way to turn it off. (See image)
There's also a Chrome setting that allows better browser history search. I've wanted that for years so I've turned that one on for now. Maybe it's better than all the other Gemini crap?

With Philz Coffee selling to private equity and cancelling all employee shares, let's kick them out of the Castro location and move Castro Coffee Company in that space. Fix two problems at once!
