Equality is Far Weaker than Constant-Cost Communication
We exhibit an $n$-bit communication problem with a constant-cost randomized protocol but which requires $n^{Ω(1)}$ deterministic (or even non-deterministic) queries to an Equality oracle. Therefore, even constant-cost randomized protocols cannot be efficiently "derandomized" using Equality oracles. This improves on several recent results and answers a question from the survey of Hatami and Hatami (SIGACT News 2024). It also gives a significantly simpler and quantitatively superior proof of the…

Titans CB eager to 'remind everybody who L'Jarius Sneed is' after injury-shortened 2024 season https://www.nfl.com/news/l-jarius-sneed-eager-to-remind-everybody-after-injury-shortened-2024-season

Ah, current plans for today: find some way to get Microsoft Flight Sim 2024 running on my computer. So far I've managed to select my starting airport/airfield and then the game hangs. It's progress, but I have a feeling this fight is going to go on for awhile considering the game hangs immediately afterwards.

9.757 personas fallecieron en pateras o cayucos que trataban de llegar a Canarias en 2024: 28 muertes al día
Son los datos del balance anual que realiza la ONG Caminando Fronteras con su informe 'Monitoreo Derecho a la Vida' y que suponen un aumento del 62,4% frente a las cifras del año pasado

2024 waren wir mit der Schachtour auf dem Schulfest des Wilhelmsgymnasiums in Stuttgart-Degerloch. Dort haben wir neben den Feierlichkeiten auch etwas Schach angeboten und unser Maskottchen Chessy war natürlich auch mit am Start.
Falls ihr aus dem Osten kommt und Lust habt, dass wir diesen Sommer zu euch kommen, meldet euch gerne hier an:

So, tracked down the issue with Microsoft Flight Simulator (MSFS) 2024. The default permissions for the HOTAS `/dev/hidraw` devices is too restrictive. This is why neither MSFS 2024 or Elite: Dangerous saw the devices. I added new entries into the `udev` rules to relax the permissions and both games immediately saw the HOTAS.

Investigation of resonant layer response in electron viscosity regime
We present a supplementary study of previous work in Waybright and Park [Phys. Plasmas 31, 022502 (2024)] which demonstrates a substantial effect of electron viscosity on the resonant layer response to non-axisymmetric magnetic perturbations. A main refinement is to include a curl element of electron viscosity in the generalized Ohm's law. The refinement reveals a resonant layer response in the Electron Viscosity (EV) regime corresponding to slowly rotating and highly viscous plasmas.

Unveiling the Complex Jet Dynamics in the Blazar 2021+317 through Multi-Epoch VLBI Observations
We present an investigation of the compact structure of the AGN 2021+317 based on multi-epoch Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) observations at 15, 22, and 43 GHz in the period from 2013 through 2024. The VLBI images show a core-jet structure extended to the south, with two stationary components in the northern region, one of which likely to be the core of the source. We also detected two new moving jet components (S4 and S5) in the observations of 2021. Based on these observational find…

Stalled on getting MSFS 2024 to run, but did clean off the desk a bit. Not the best case scenario, but figured a nice lazy Saturday just relaxing would work out well.

Hrmm, seems like my HOTAS setup doesn't work with MSFS 2024 under Linux which is very annoying. Not quite sure _why_ it's not working other than as far as MSFS is concerned it does not exist. `usbreset` shows it and I can see outputs from the device, but for this specific game it's a no-go at the moment. Very annoying.

Wooo, my ProtonDB post was posted. I'm hoping this helps out other folks with getting MSFS 2024 working.
