Grabbed @…'s new game because I spotted it on sale - and just like his others (Wizodd, Toroom, Doomed to Hell), it's a blast. Rocket Rats is a survivors-like shooter where you fight cheese-based astral bodies in space as a rat. Love the look, the music, the gameplay- got to wave 10 on my first try. Gonna keep playing this one - gotta upgrade gear &…

Kommer hålla droshen i shul på lördag och jag har inte tid att skriva en nyhetsbrev så jag lägger upp den här istället.

When you’ve spent almost nine hours inside the vortex of Psytrance, you can bet it’s my favorite genre of all time, because once you’re hooked on 145 BPM the line between hearing and being the music completely disappears.
The bassline doesn’t just sit in the background, it takes command with ruthless precision, rewiring thought into rhythm and heartbeat into tempo, proving again and again that Psytrance isn’t just what I listen to, it’s the sound I belong to.
By the time the flow…

@… confusingly in practice I think it’s a continuum:
Clear -> Tinted -> Reduce Transparency
so the latter makes the former 2 irrelevant?

Exploring the History of Stellar Mergers with Chemistry: Examining the Origins of Massive $α$-Enriched Stars using Carbon Isotope Ratios
Recently discovered massive $α$-enriched (MAE) stars have surface chemistry consistent with members of the older thick disk Milky Way population but high masses ($\sim$ 1.5 - 3 M$_{\odot}$) that suggest these stars are young. The origin of MAE stars is not fully understood although binary interactions are likely an important formation pathway. To better constrain the history of MAE stars, we have measured metallicities, carbon isotope ratios, and CNO abundances in 49 red clump stars and four r…

Establishing a Baseline of Software Supply Chain Security Task Adoption by Software Organizations
Software supply chain attacks have increased exponentially since 2020. The primary attack vectors for supply chain attacks are through: (1) software components; (2) the build infrastructure; and (3) humans (a.k.a software practitioners). Software supply chain risk management frameworks provide a list of tasks that an organization can adopt to reduce software supply chain risk. Exhaustively adopting all the tasks of these frameworks is infeasible, necessitating the prioritized adoption of tasks.…

The absolute UX *drama* of the new tinted (vs. clear) Liquid Glass preference in the macOS 26.1 System Settings. Why separate from the Reduce Transparency accessibility toggle? Why so prominent in the Appearance section? Why do users need to know about Liquid Glass at all? Mistakes were made here 😅
