  It is - without the quiet zone, it makes detecting the locator pattern really difficult, especially in one’s looking for the 1:1:3:1:1 ratio.

  I don’t play Trackmania at all, but it’s been really fun to watch the daily edits that Wirtual’s YouTube has been making for the live streams. Watching someone’s heart rate shoot up ~40 bpm just after making a butt clenching jump is vicariously entertaining in the max. His video on Deep Dip 1 was also fantastic.

  There was an episode of PBS Space Time on the holographic principle in general recently, and I believe they’ve also discussed the black hole thing as well.

  That prick Richard Woolsey had a great character arc though!

  While there’ve certainly been some player characters faces that have been worsened by the changes, my Femezen came out pretty great, so I’m happy about that!

  I didn’t see anything in the paper about the rotational speed of galaxies. Was that accounted for?

  An absolute classic that I watch every single time. Kamelåså!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why do some languages use gendered nouns?⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t have the source with me, but I recall a paper about listening to various languages unser different signal/ noise thresholds. If I recall correctly, languages like German that have multiple declensions were about to better able to parse noisy samples because of the redundant information. Sorry for not having the source off hand though.

  I’m pretty darn sure that houses are only for number tracking purposes. You can have them anywhere in the radius of the hearth and they’ll function the same. Similar to decorations that way, in functionality.
