Played some of the demo of @…'s Pyrotoad - it's a total blast. Precision puzzle platformer - tough but do-able. Very challenging, really satisfying once you figure it out. Currently in biome 2, level 1- wow. That's the last pic here. Tough as hell. But fun! Try out the demo - the full game is out November 3.

Ilford HP5 Plus 400 (FF) English Alt Text: A black-and-white photo capturing the reflection of a domed, ornate historic building in the glass facade of a modern skyscraper. The glass panels create a grid that distorts and segments the reflection, blending old and new architectural styles. The contrast between classical detailing and modern geometry creates a visually compelling composition. 中文替代文本： 这是一张黑白照片，拍摄的是一座现代高楼玻璃幕墙中反射出的历史建筑。被反射的建筑顶部有圆顶，装饰精美，具有古典风格。玻璃幕墙呈网格状，使反射图像产生扭曲和分割效果，形成新旧建筑风格的融合。古典…

Eliminate Branches by Melding IR Instructions
Branch mispredictions cause catastrophic performance penalties in modern processors, leading to performance loss. While hardware predictors and profile-guided techniques exist, data-dependent branches with irregular patterns remain challenging. Traditional if-conversion eliminates branches via software predication but faces limitations on architectures like x86. It often fails on paths containing memory instructions or incurs excessive instruction overhead by fully speculating large branch bodi…

URGENT: Tell Congress NO to Funding Primate Breeding!
Right now, Congress is working on the 2025 federal budget, and the Senate Appropriations Committee has allocated a staggering $30 million to expand primate breeding and research at National Primate Research Centers. This funding will support invasive, unethical experiments on primates—causing unimaginable suffering while advancing unreliable science that fails over 90% of the time in human clinical trials. 🔬 Despite these facts, the NIH asked for $10 million, but the Senate has tripled th…

Content warning: Buffy Comics

Been reading some of the Buffy The Vampire Slayer comic-books, set after the TV shows ended.
It's a very different world with Buffy and Xander being commanders of a whole slayer army with seemingly massive resources, from a castle being attacked by various supernatural forces.
Very different pacing from the TV show too.
You know that episode of Angel where Spike and Angel are running around in Italy chasing after Buffy who now dates The Immortal?
Turns out it wasn't Buffy at all, but one of her decoys that have been deployed around the world. Andrew thought it would be funny to troll the two vampires by pretending she was dating The Immortal.
The artwork is all great, but sometimes a little rough and I find it challenging since I don't always recognize who is supposed to be who, especially as the artists and styles switch from book to book.
Some of the mini stories feel like just pulling the TV show characters back for no good reason.
I hear rumors of a new Buffy TV show starring SMG with no involvement from Joss, and wonder if it'll assume these stories of visiting the future or fighting with an army from a castle base will be retconned out entirely?
It's an entertaining read and nice to visit those characters again, but doesn't feel much like the TV show because it's such a different setting and Buffy is very different as a commander than a school girl.

Why VideoAmp Thinks It Can Bust Nielsen’s TV Ratings Monopoly
With viewership data underpinning $60 billion in television advertising, an industry behemoth is suddenly facing questions about whether it is “bringing an abacus to an AI fight.”
