If you have a North American Switch eshop account (sorry, European & other folks) and wanna grab some free games, No Gravity Games is doing another holiday giveaway for several days. You HAVE TO get the game the day before to get the next day's game (they're also fairly cheap to just buy if you miss one). Grab the first one today - Bullets & Brains (a zombie shooter) here:

Grabbed wifey a Switch 2 so she'll have a new game to play (Bananza) on her upcoming break. I did try some Mario Kart World, it's a blast, of course. Gotta have the kid over eventually to fully take advantage of that one. The graphics are crispy on this thing, and the screen is quite a bit bigger. And a rounded charger base. 😂😂

Limiting the Yukawa Gravity through the Black Hole Shadows of Sgr A* and M87*
Recently, the \textit{EHT} collaboration unveiled the shadow images of the supermassive black hole (SMBH) M87* and Sgr A*, with angular radii of $42\pm3$\,$μ$as and $48.7\pm7.0$\,$μ$as, respectively. These observations are consistent with the shadow of a Kerr black hole in general relativity (GR). Observations of the shadow of SMBHs can be used to test modified gravity theories, including Yukawa gravity, in extremely strong fields. In this paper, we illustrate the shadows of Yukawa black hole…

Digital Markets Act: EU-Wettbewerbskommissarin wirft USA „Erpressung“ vor
Teresa Ribera, Vizepräsidentin der EU-Kommission, greift die Trump-Regierung scharf an. Diese setze die EU massiv unter Druck, ihre Tech-Regeln abzuschwächen.

I wasn't having much luck with my Stanley #4 when flattening this table top. Out of desperation, I grabbed one of my Japanese planes. I've never had much luck with it in the past even though I tried it several times.
Man, that thing ate through the top and flattened it in no time. I hit it with the Stanley for good measure when I was done.

Shadows and amplitude luminosity of an embedded rotating black hole
We investigate a rotating black hole embedded in a five-dimensional flat bulk by extending the Kerr metric through the Gurses-Gursey line element. Employing Boyer-Lindquist coordinates, we reinterpret the black hole as a charged-like object in five dimensions and analyze its horizon structure and shadow morphology. Our results reveal that the shadow is shaped by an axially symmetric gravitational field modulated by an extrinsic curvature term arising from the higher-dimensional embedding. Simul…

Anomalous strain-dependent thermal conductivity in superelastic screw-dislocated graphites
The design of strain-stable, or even strain-enhanced thermal transport materials is critical for stable operation of high-performance electronic devices. However, most nanomaterials suffer from strain-induced degradation, with even minor tensile strains markedly reducing thermal conductivity. Here, we demonstrate that screw-dislocated graphites (SDGs), recently identified as topological semimetals, display an unusual increase in cross-plane thermal conductivity under both tensile and compressiv…
