  1. Who needs #BioLabs when there's all sorts of #bacteria about to be exposed after thousands of years!

    Researchers issue warning after making grim #Antarctic discovery: 'We are only beginning to understand'

    Story by Daysia Tolentino, January 29, 2026

    Excerpt: "A study published in the journal #Biocontaminant examined the effects of #GlacialMelting on our #WaterSupply.

    "#Glaciers serve as reservoirs for #AntibioticResistanceGenes, or #ARGs, and other #microbes. When they are released from the ice, they enter our water systems, posing a major health risk to people downstream.

    "Millions of people get their water from glacier-fed rivers and lakes. ARGs are strands of DNA that make bacteria more resistant to drugs. When ARGs in #meltwater make their way into our water supply, they become a global public health risk.

    "The study emphasizes the importance of viewing glaciers, rivers, and lakes as being part of a 'glacier continuum.' This means they are an interconnected system rather than separate environments.

    Why are melting glaciers concerning?

    "From our gas-powered cars to #overconsumption, human activity has contributed to the production of heat-trapping gases that warm the planet. Rising global temperatures have caused glaciers to rapidly melt, causing elevated sea levels and releasing ARGs.

    "ARGs from melting glaciers are worrisome because they help facilitate the spread of diseases. This threat is compounded by the fact that our growing #microplastic problem is also helping #AntibioticResistant #bacteria breed. As a result, #medicines are being rendered less effective."

  6. Разбираемся со звёздочками: понятное руководство по *args и **kwargs для начинающих

    Многие начинающие разработчики обходят *args и **kwargs стороной, считая их чем-то необязательным или слишком сложным. Но на самом деле, понимание этого механизма — это качественный скачок в вашем умении писать чистый, масштабируемый и по-настоящему "пайтонический" код.

  10. #VSCode #csharp #debug #args Velmi tápavě se mi snad podařilo přidat args. Použil jsem: nodogmablog.bryanhogan.net/202 . V tomhle jsem se moc nevyznal: code.visualstudio.com/docs/deb . A tohle mi nešlo: stackoverflow.com/questions/57 .

    Je adresář DU1 , asi nějaký "základní". Tam se mi nějak podařilo udělat podadresář .vscode a v něm:

    launch.json :

    {
    "version": "0.2.0",
    "configurations": [
    {
    "name": "My debug config",
    "type": "coreclr",
    "request": "launch",
    "preLaunchTask": "build",
    "program": "${workspaceFolder}/DU1/bin/Debug/net9.0/DU1.exe",
    "args": ["x", "y", "z"],
    "cwd": "${workspaceFolder}",
    "console": "internalConsole",
    "stopAtEntry": false
    }
    ]
    }

    tasks.json :

    {
    "version": "2.0.0",
    "tasks": [
    {
    "label": "build",
    "command": "dotnet",
    "type": "process",
    "args": [
    "build",
    "/property:GenerateFullPaths=true",
    "/consoleloggerparameters:NoSummary"
    ],
    "problemMatcher": "$msCompile"
    }
    ]
    }

    A nějak to snad funguje. Ale co je tam zbytečně, co neelegantně a proč je to tak složité, to nechápu.

    Není někde jednoduchý návod?

  11. If you like creepy stories, look no further. This unsolved case has it all: a sinister character, a horror movie-like setting, possible violent crime victims, death threats, mythology, and sophistication. It all started when a Swedish tech blog received a CD with one file on it, named 11B-X-1371.

  13. hellooo fedi!!!

    i am overdue for an #introduction:

    i am a transfem artist based in #adelaide, kaurna yerta and have a background in #gamedev, specifically #virtualreality. i cant stop thinking about #transreality experiences, #pervasivegames, and other transmedia storytelling ( #ARGs! ), but most of my artistic practice would be in what i would more broadly call participatory #performanceart

    i love #opensource, #diy (as in punk), #openscience, and building and pulling apart systems!!

  14. Want to know how it all worked?

  20. In case you missed it... last week I announced a big new project: the Center for Immersive Arts, an immersive history project and archive! cfia.org

    I'm exploring the history of alternate reality games, theater, LARP, escape rooms, theme parks, VR/XR, and more

  25. More #ARGs should use the #Fediverse.

    For example, someone could set up a Mastodon instance for an #ARG about a small fictitious county and make accounts for each citizen posting about bizarre events in the county, and can contribute to their ARG's lore by answering others' questions and generally interacting with comments from the Fediverse.

    It's like how people set up accounts for characters from their ARG on Twitter or cryptic channels on YouTube.

    Scalability vs accuracy.

  27. Anyone know of a librarian with an interest/specialty in immersive design work (including but not limited to immersive theater, escape rooms, alternate reality games/ARGs, spatial computing/VR/AR/XR, transmedia work), who would be willing to advise on metadata, organizing digital collections, and similar topics? Please send them my way!

  28. Thank you so much to everyone who has listened to my new #DarkAmbient #music release "The Crypt", about the encrypted layer of the #DarkWeb home to the rogue AIs crawling up to the surface web wreaking havoc all over the world!

    Inspired by #CreepyPasta, #AnalogHorror, and #Internet #ARGs.
