I really want to know the full story behind this epic hack, and yet I also hope it is never solved.
It's my favorite day! It's the 38th anniversary of the Max Headroom signal broadcast intrusion!
1st incident lasted 25s during the 9PM news on WGN-TV in Chicago; The 2nd, 2hrs later, lasted ~90s on PBS affiliate WTTW during Dr. Who.

Hey folks who wants to do some hero shit
A family member in Portland Oregon died unexpectedly and left behind a 2 year old husky who is currently on a 5 day hold in a shelter while I try to figure out a way to get her to me here in Portland Maine so that I can adopt her...without it costing All the Money.
Anyone have any ideas?

I get a lot of joy out of being a compassionate professor. Helping students improve their writing and knowledge is a blessing.

I always carry a mask with me, and there are certain places I wear it every time. But it is time again to be more vigilant.

Holy SHIT they've identified an actual biomarker!!!
Scientists Finally Reveal Biological Basis of Long COVID Brain Fog.
Patients with brain fog may have disrupted AMPA receptor (AMPAR) expression—key molecules for memory and learning. Imaging of Long COVID patients showed elevated AMPAR density tied to more severe cognitive impairment.

Need a cool cat? Or two? Live near ASU? How about Neon? Iridium? Mercury? Argon? Fluorine or Nitrogen? See forwarded post.
Over at one of the ASU science buildings, they found a stray mama cat with a litter of kittens living near the liquid nitrogen pipes (because it was so much cooler than the surrounding area--remember, this is Phoenix, we're already seeing triple digits).
