I got a couple books and a single-player game today (putting off finishing my CSUNATC slides).
Actually, this particular haul is three single-player games.

So there’s a new Crayola game on #AppleArcade and in Portuguese they translated every single instance of a singular gender neutral “they” to… a plural gendered pronoun
Like, really! This game makes NO SENSE in Portuguese! You can literally choose “Eles(as)” as a pronoun for your character, and every single time at the character creation screen they refer to the character as “eles” which is just plural
They could’ve used “elu” or “ile” for the pronouns choice which are gender neutral pronouns in Portuguese (even tho we don’t have a really mainstream gender neutral pronoun yet) or even just disabled the gender neutral option because of the lack of mainstream ones, but nope they chose to add something that makes absolutely no sense at all unless you have two headmates of different genders. And for the “choose their name”-like stuff they could’ve just used the male pronouns (thats often still used if u don’t know one’s gender) or even the gender neutral pronouns that do exist, but once again they used the plural

Triangulated characterizations of singularities
This work presents a range of triangulated characterizations for important classes of singularities such as derived splinters, rational singularities, and Du Bois singularities. We measure singularity types by the potential for a pair of objects to finitely build one another in the bounded derived category of coherent sheaves utilizing a combination of cones, shifts, or finite coproducts. An invariant called 'level' in a triangulated category can be used to measure the failure of a variety to h…

Fuelled by climate change, the world's oceans have broken temperature records every single day over the past year, a BBC analysis finds.
Nearly 50 days have smashed existing highs for the time of year by the largest margin in the satellite era.

Climate change: World's oceans suffer from record-breaking year of heat
Every single day of the past 12 months has seen a new global sea temperature high for the time of year.

Broken temperature records for every single day over the entire last year.
