Here's something you may NOT know about beluga whales: they have squishy foreheads. This area is called the MELON, and it's a specialized organ filled with fat, oil & wax that acts as a deformable acoustic lens, focusing sound waves into the water around them. But wait, there's MORE!
An extra spooky booluga for you on this #WhaleWednesday in spooky season. 🖌️All Everything Dolphin #WhaleTales

“Already the chemicals are thought to contaminate the blood of nearly every living person. Research links them to cancer, liver disease, kidney issues, high cholesterol + birth defects.“ This is bad bad, I can‘t separate this environmental destruction from any asshole who defends and uses ai.
So the bad news about methods of cooling data center that use less water: they rely on forever chemicals. "In “two-phase immersion cooling” systems, servers are immersed in a pool of Pfas with a low boiling point." www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Hi, I’m a sighted alt text user! Here are some reasons I use it: - Slow Internet on an airplane - I’m over 40, I have no idea who that celebrity is - Bluesky broke images again - My vision sucks and that text is too small to read otherwise - Conveys further context and authorial intent

that book was outstanding. aaaaaabsolutely worth the wait. If you enjoy sci fi and you haven't read the Children Of Time series, you need to get on that. Multiple times, the concepts and ideas were just so fascinating I had to stop reading and ponder extensively.
never feel bad, unless you're one of the people reading Adrian Tchaikovsky's Children of Strife in the Mayo area in which case get a god damn wiggle on because I am WAITING 😤

The American white collar workforce started working from home three days a week for like six months a year into COVID and executives so thoroughly lost their minds over this that they installed Trump II. If anything, AI will create the 7-day workweek.
