Organic geochemical evidence for life in Archean rocks identified by pyrolysis–GC–MS and supervised machine learning: #life in ancient rocks: https://gizmodo.com/ai-uncovers-evidence-of-life-in-3-3-billion-year-old-rocks-2000687539 / https://www.reuters.com/science/new-method-spots-signs-earths-primordial-life-ancient-rocks-2025-11-18/ - a machine-learning-enhanced approach to chemical analysis is drastically expanding the chemical record of life on Earth, and it could help us find evidence of life on other planets too.

If you don’t try, you don’t know. Thus no opinion.

@… oh! You changed it, despite my plea 👍 and now, in the most obscure way imaginable, the change relates to discussion, elsewhere, of a true crime that is non-domestic.
Such strange wanderings …

the good news is yesterday i got half of our giant hedge trimmed before the battery died on the trimmer (seems to be a theme)
the bad news is, just before the battery died, my back tweaked.
I took some relaxants and it was ok last night, but this morning the muscles are very guarded. Full up on Tylenol back pain and Advil.

Remember how you (in the US) thought 2020 was never ending? You didn't imagine 2025 back then did you? 🙋‍♂️

Added a zoom level to the Category page on the Exocortex-Log app. Can make the graphs look a lot cleaner now.
Looking back over the last 100 months here, we can see in general my social life is quite seasonal -- Festivals are a lot of social all weekend long and a couple of them in a month really bumps up the hours from my usual habit of sitting alone in a dark room pressing buttons.
The peak in 2019 is a summer filled with Glasto and Noisily and another festival or camping trip I don’t seem to have recorded the name of.
Then clearly visible is the drop-off in social activity as the COVID pandemic hit. Virtual-Social (IE zoom meetings and the like) picked up quite a bit around there but had died back to almost nothing way before the hours spent with actual people started to tick up.
Annoyingly, I have my biggest gap in data right on top of the pandemic there, where I failed to back up for months and then data became corrupted.
When the data-hole is over we see social life still not really returning until the middle of 2021 and not really getting back into stride until summer 2022.
It remains much lower now on average with lower peaks than before the pandemic too. Multiple reasons.
Work is pretty constant all the way though other than the data-hole. Dipping when I take time off for social mostly.
That data-hole is annoying. Back up your data kids.

Passwords are a scourge foisted on elderly tech-users. :(
I just got back from a house call with a fellow who can’t remember his passwords for his email. None of his backups work. His little book of passwords, useless.
There is no support to call for help.
His only option is to create a new email and leave the other behind.
Over and over I have seen this trouble. Not always to this extent, but always the same frustration.
Passwords are elder abuse.

Some people (mostly in movies) would rather return to prison because "free" boarding and lodging, but a student not clearing the first year of a 4-year university course and staying put for free boarding and lodging on campus?

Interesting corollary to the #Perseverance discovery in the Bright Angel formation on #Mars making headlines 1 1/2 months ago: at a public talk in Bochum as part of a mathematics outreach event - #Life Detection scale #MarsSampleReturnMission the rating could jump up to 5 or 6 after lab analysis.
Green also remarked that the sample tubes dropped by Percy are up for grabs for *any* spacefaring nation capable of doing a MSRM - including China though they don't plan to go after the Percy samples with their upcoming #Tianwen3 mission (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tianwen-3) as far as he has heard. And regardless of where they'll get their own samples they could advance the case for life, perhaps even extant, on Mars a lot - which Green feels has been all but made in the past decades of Mars research anyway. Oh, and he also thinks terraforming Mars is quite viable ...

Replying to someone to check if a term in their message was just a typo, and spelling the word typo as "type", then correcting that typo to "typ0", and so on. 🤦‍♂️
Anyway, how's your day going?

Every opportunity in life is a test. Of whether we use the opportunity, how we use it, what we use it for, and who (all) we use it for. 🌈

Line from a show set in 1990s: "My boss wants to surprise his daughter with this monster 40-inch Mitsubishi TV."
(City on a Hill, S3 E2, 27:1.)
43" is probably the smallest size TV anyone sells/wants these days. 😀
