About us

🤗 Thanks for joining our little instance here, located in Oregon. The idea is to have a fast, stable instance and allow users to subscribe to whatever content they want from here.

😎 We dont block any other instances. We will keep it that way unless it becomes a moderation problem.

🤠 We will be around for a very long time, so you dont have to worry about us shutting down the instance anytime soon. We like performance and stability in our servers, and will upgrade the instance when its needed.

🥹 Make sure to join a lot of remote communities to get a good feed going. How to do that is explained here.

You should start using one of these ASAP since the web browser user interface is quite ugly, even with themes.

On Qikiqtaruk, off Canada, researchers at the frontier of climate change are seeing its rich ecology slide into the sea as the melting permafrost leaves little behind

Die Landesnahverkehrsgesellschaft (LNVG) warnt indes vor erheblichen Störungen auf dem Expresskreuz. "Mit der erneuten Verzögerung bei Alstom stehen wir ab Dezember 2025 ohne Züge für das Expresskreuz da" [...] Ersatzfahrzeuge habe Alstom noch nicht fest zugesagt.

Konsequenzen hat die erneute Verschiebung auch für Friesland und Wilhelmshaven. Die neuen Züge der Linie RE1 sollen nach Angaben des Verkehrsministeriums künftig in Oldenburg geteilt werden - der vordere Zugteil fährt dann weiter nach Norddeich-Mole, der hintere nach Wilhelmshaven. Das ist mit den alten Zügen nicht möglich.

For me it's DJ Peach Cobbler. I've been watching his videos since he had around 2,000 subscribers. Now it's nearly 450,000.

He used to mostly make videos on games, now he does a lot of history stuff too. He also has a little satirical news show, and a few tasteful shitposts. A really diverse YouTube channel.

What's your favorite YouTube channel that's not a mainstream big-name like pewdiepie, mrbeast, ksi, etc...?

By default I tend to see a lot of German and Greek posts in amongst the English ones.

It might be nice to have an option where the app can translate these in the default view, either on demand or automatically. (perhaps cached on the server to save CPU time?)

Even if it's just the post title, that could be interesting.

Key Points:

  • Suigi has secured all five major speedrunning categories in Super Mario 64, effectively declaring the game's speedrunning community 'dead'.
  • Suigi's dominance is so profound that his records in all 5 main categories remain largely unchallenged.

The Five Star Categories:

  • 120 star: Completes every single star in the game.
  • 70 star: Completes all normal requirements to reach the final level.
  • 16 star: Uses glitches and techniques to significantly reduce required stars.
  • 1 star: Further optimizes the 16 star run for a single star collection.
  • 0 star: Eliminates stars entirely, focusing on time.

Background Details:

  • Some of Suigi's records were set over a year ago; his 16-star record alone still leads by 6 seconds.
  • Suigi estimates it could take up to a couple of years before someone else beats his current world records.

How do you feel about the dedication and skill demonstrated in these ultra-optimized speedruns? Do such efforts bring value to gaming or are they more of an academic exercise?

A young Australian woman was the latest confirmed death, and her friend was fighting for her life, Prime Minister Anthony Albanese said. Two Danish citizens and an American had also died, officials said, after what media said was a night out in Vang Vieng where they drank possibly tainted alcohol. The group of about a dozen tourists became ill after going out on November 12, according to British and Australian media.

Vang Vieng has been a fixture on the Southeast Asia backpacker trail since Laos' secretive communist rulers opened the country to tourism decades ago. The town was once notorious for backpackers behaving badly at jungle parties and has since re-branded as an eco-tourism destination. On their travel advice websites for Laos, UK and Australian authorities warn their citizens to beware of methanol poisoning while consuming alcohol in Laos.

Methanol can be added to liquor to increase its potency, but can cause blindness, liver damage and death. In neighbouring Thailand, at least six people died and more than 20 were hospitalised after drinking methanol-laced bootleg alcohol in August.

Abstract

The aim of the current study is to evaluate the radioactivity estimate the radiological risk of some granites and marbles rocks and explaining the cause of increased radioactivity in some types of rocks. The radioactivity of some granites and marbles produced in Egypt were determined by using a Germanium detector. Three types of marble (Breshia, Galala, and Trista) and three types of granite (Gandola, White Halayeb, and Red Aswani) were collected. All marble samples show low radioactivity with average activity concentrations of 20 ± 2, 4.50 ± 0.5, and 6.70 ± 1.2 Bqkg^− 1^ for ^226^Ra, ^232^Th, and ^40^K respectively. Granite samples have higher activity concentration with averages of 152 ± 7, 129 ± 8, and 1228 ± 15 Bqkg^− 1^ for ^226^Ra, ^232^Th, and ^40^K respectively which exceed the world average values of soil (32,45,412 Bqkg− 1 for 226Ra, 232Th, and 40K respectively) excluding Granite G.2 (white Halayeb) as it shows an insignificant level of radioactivity. The annual effective doses of marble samples Breshia, Galala, and Trista were measured to be 4.42 ± 0.4; 158 ± 14 and 153 ± 15 µSvy^− 1^, and 1008 ± 147, 80 ± 7 and 987 ± 45.0 µSvy^− 1^ for the granite samples Gandola, White Halayeb and Red Aswani respectively. The radiation hazard parameters show a higher value for granite samples than marble samples, primarily due to the presence of potassium feldspar minerals in these types of granites. marbles were observed to be radiologically safer than granite because they possess a neglected ^40^K content and a trace quantity of uranium and thorium. Moreover, the minimum potassium content is enough to make a rock radiological unsafe due to ^40^K only being determined to be about 13.2%.

https://www.ifop.com/publication/communique-de-presse-nouvelle-ere-pour-le-groupe-ifop/

Le travail sur le logotype Ifop a consisté à s’appuyer sur l’histoire et conserver la dimension manuscrite de la typographie, qui exprimait bien l’idée de proximité et d’empathie ; mais il fallait lui redonner plus d’impact, de puissance et de modernité, plus en phase avec la conviction forte de l’Ifop sur son marché. La forme du F, très singulière, a été conservée et intégrée au logo Ifop Group comme marqueur de l’observation du monde, tel un périscope, et comme signe de vie, de mouvement. Au final, cette cellule, évocatrice de la vie et d’un monde en mouvement, devient le nouveau symbole transversal à tous les instituts composant le groupe, chacun avec sa couleur. La couleur rouge (pour le groupe et l’institut Ifop), à la fois chic et lumineuse, est aussi une couleur de vie et de passion.

Tout le style graphique reprend cette dynamique, avec des formes arrondies et des ondes, symboliques de l’écoute, de l’empathie, de l’échange, de la compréhension.
