It's on apt. It's literally on Cargo. It's on DockerHub with ads. It's literally on nuget. You can probably find it on snap. Dude it's on portage. It's a Homebrew original. It's on pacman. You can download it on nixpkgs. You can go to pkgsrc and watch it. Log onto the Windows Store right now.

A terrific writeup from @rami.spaceaustralia.com on our recent Apep results and press release! Would highly recommend giving it a read :)
Two new papers have used data from JWST and ESO's VLT to help uncover new details of the chaos amongst the stars: Apep

@rami.spaceaustralia.com spoke with one of the paper's lead authors @astroryan.bsky.social about this incredible system.

It's 51°F outside. I tried to avoid using air conditioning, but without it, it's 77°F and rising here in my apartment.

Never getting a southern exposure again. Using air conditioning in November is just wacky.

3D render of Mole’s Best Friend’s main character, Topo, by the one and only GamerJax: a 10 year old game developer who I was lucky enough to meet at PAX West this year. This is the first Mole’s Best Friend fanart ever made! Look at that attention to detail! #indiegamedev #fanart #3dart #youthartist

Reminder again that until the 1960s we literally did not know what Mars looked like. You can't really resolve it well enough in a ground-based telescope to make out surface details.

We didn't think there were canals by the 1950s, but scientific consensus held that there was seasonal vegetation.

I refuse, I don't negotiate with terrorists (my pineal gland)
Hey! Northern hemisphere folks:

this is my annual reminder to myself and perhaps also to you that if you have the schedule autonomy to permit it, get out for a walk or whatever during daylight hours! It's important!

You can work more when it's dark but you need whatever sunlight is available!

I'm above the age of 40, and the one piece of advice I would give to literally anyone starting out in life is, if you are in ANY doubt whatsoever how to respond to a situation, DO NOT SAY OR DO ANYTHING. Just wait, look, listen, and be chill. 99% of the time, you're better off.
It's still free to say nothing when you don't know what you are talking about - and it is the bargain of the century.

I don't really seek out news much, so I'm getting fifth-hand or sixth-hand references to nearly everything happening in the world, and boy howdy.
