Eight total cats, still have a Pinky and Brain


Exactly what I was thinking


I love Gold. But you’re correct, Thief 2 is god-tier.
Dang, that’s a nice throwback.


TrueCrypt had/has that feature for full-drive encryption. But I don’t think anyone serious uses them anymore due to the current code maintainers having some questionable allegiances.


Not sure if you count nonprofits, but the Braille Institute has Atkinson Hyperlegible


Ah, a fellow engineer!


Perfect use of scientific vocabulary.


I think they’re referring to this species. Although the cloning aspect adds yet another layer of wtf on top.


Add to that the capability of Meshtastic to do basic encryption and a device entry fee of <$15. Limited scope doesnt matter as much if it’s widespread enough.


I read through that entire thing, saw Charles, and just skipped right over it. That’s perfect though.
The one with a bunch of golden lab dogs dressed in lab coats? It’s still hanging on my fridge.


Looks great! What area are you in?


I’m trying to get back into HAM after 30 years out of it. Starting with meshtastic let’s me play around without spending a lot on hardware, and before I get my license back.
There are great prebuilt nodes for under $50, and as low as $20 if you build your own from parts.


Woo! Thanks for the mander.xyz shout out. Come for the science memes, stay for the top-tier science discussions.


Great article! It was nice to see some mentions of older projects as well, instead of just things currently (de)funded.


I agree completely! When i teach the concept of Biodiversity to my classes it quickly spirals to other topics. Everything is related.


In any laboratory, including ours, we always find the same result: Adolescents just are not as good as adults at cognitive control — except in studies where we say, if you do this trial correctly, we’re going to give you extra points for more money. And, miraculously, adolescents can then do it like adults.
As a teacher I’ve found this is key to motivation in the classroom. It’s an amazing transformation for the 10-15 minute window.
That’s a great idea! And my local stations already start with a K so they don’t have to change.
