Looking forward to adding this one to my collection and then never actually having the time to play it, as has been my tradition with all the other Amnesia sequels.

Oh hell yeah,
Frictional themselves are developing it. Definitely looking forward to this.

The Japanese word for the Pleiades star cluster is Subaru and their logo is a stylized rendition of same. The more you know. ☄️

I am always amazed at space photos that show how MANY stars there are, besides the ones that we can see in a really dark night sky.

Okay, cabling aside, I think my portable #Nintendo gigging setup is pretty much good to go now!

I'd love to hear from other #chiptune, #chipmusic, and #micromusic folks about what their portable setups are like.

In fact, I'd love to hear from people outside the scene as in sure there are lots of #musicproducion, #synth, and #livemusic nerds doing interesting portable and #DAWless setups.

This Hubble image shows a young star cluster named NGC 2040.

The stars seen here are very loosely clustered, share a common origin, and are drifting together through space! Discover more: go.nasa.gov/3H5xyZB

Venus's surface is shrouded in mystery thanks to its ultra-thick atmosphere, but when the Pioneer Venus Orbiter reached orbit 44 years ago on Dec. 4, 1978, it sent back detailed data about the planet…for another 14 years!

xor linked lists have got to be one of the weirdest datatypes ever.

1. very simple, 2 struct fields
2. simple to implement in low level languages, hard or impossible in high level languages
3. reversing one takes the same amount of time no matter how many elements it has
4. takes up less space than a doubly linked list by literally storing two pointers on top of each other
5. despite doing things that are usually impossible, there is little reason to use it for anything

I had not seen this specific spacesuit before. More streamlined than the later Apollo era suits.

Bring lots of ziploc bags. You might want to double bag the pointy ones. 😐

Link doesn't go anywhere (yet?)
Do us all a favor and please do not hire Musk to bring back Mars sample returns.

Diamond Creek is a tributary of the Yarra River. During our recent rains we had warning after warning about various areas being flooded along the Yarra River. We weren't flooded in our village of Hurstbridge, but we did need to know which routes into the city or various suburbs could be safely traversed by car. Diamond Creek did rise considerably. However, it flows through a deep gully and therefore kept the water from entering the village.

Yesterday, I decided to walk home from the deli via Diamond Creek. The damage was amazing. Sadly, it's hard to capture in a photograph. The small amount of muddy water you see is about how deep the creek is normally. So, all the brown bits are where vegetation was washed away. Underneath the fallen eucalyptus tree you can see a shipping pallet that had been carried off by the flood and left at our doorstep (so to speak). It is one of the longer ones. That might give you a sense of scale. I heard that blue tongue lizards and a few other animals had to be rescued from stumps that were surrounded by water.
