And she's always smoking? 😂🤣

Resident Evil: Apocalypse (2004)
As the city is locked down under quarantine, Alice finds out that the people that died from the previous incident at the Umbrella Corporation have turned into zombies. She then joins a small band of elite soldiers, who are enlisted to rescue the missing daughter of the creator of the mutating T-virus. Once lack of luck and resources happen, they begin to wage an exhilarating battle to survive and escape before the Umbrella Corporation erases its experiment from the face of the earth.

Wildfire posts can save crucial minutes, but one hidden effect is reshaping how crews and resources get deployed

Abstract: Low-altitude wireless networks (LAWN) require drones to follow specific trajectories controlled by ground base stations (GBSs). However, given complex low-altitude channel conditions and limited spectrum and power resources, sensing errors and wireless link unreliability cannot be ignored, leading to trajectory deviations that threaten flight safety. To address this issue, this paper proposes an integrated sensing-communication-control (ISCC) closed-loop trajectory tracking approach, aiming to reveal the coupling mechanisms among communication, sensing, and control during drone flight. In detail, we incorporate sensing errors in trajectory state estimation, packet losses in control command transmission, and finite blocklength transmission effects into the closed-loop dynamics. First, through theoretical analysis, we identify the dominant role of the time-frequency resources allocated to control in ensuring system stability and derive a lower bound on the resources required to guarantee stable operation. Second, to minimize tracking error, we formulate a time-frequency resource allocation optimization problem for the sensing, communication, and control components, subject to constraints on communication rate and closed-loop stability. Accordingly, a solution algorithm based on successive convex approximation is proposed. Third, simulation results indicate that once stability is ensured, system performance is primarily determined by sensing accuracy, with the trajectory tracking error exhibiting an approximately linear dependence on the position error bound. Finally, it is shown that the proposed ISCC scheme avoids trajectory divergence under FBL transmission compared with ISCC designs ignoring control packet loss, and could achieve decimeter-level average tracking accuracy, reducing the error to only 17.37% of that observed in the baseline global navigation satellite system scheme.

Kind of a dud article, given it promises mid than it delivers about the actual spawning process, but it contains an amazing fact:
Apparently Sigmund Freud did an unsuccessful stint as a marine biologist and was tasked with dissecting 400 male eels to try to find their reproductive organs, which he couldn't because despite being adults they aren't sexually mature until they migrate to their spawning grounds.
I feel like this explains a LOT about Freud's theories' focus on sexual organs (especially of the eel-shaped variety), in light of... Freud's theories.
