  4. #Study from Sep '25 claims they've proven that #pianists can alter #timber, #brightness, w/ how they play (the #percussion #instrument by pressing keys).
    But for all its wordiness, they never describe a single #technique used, they never discuss what they saw w/ all those cameras. They don't say what #music they used or its complexity, how the #listeners heard it (was it #recorded? #live in the room?).
    Put simply: I don't believe them (& I'm a pianist).

  5. Folks, if you get the chance to vote #blinding #headlights back off the road, please let me encourage you.

    For too many years, marketers have run amok, pandering to ego-driven #excess #headlamp #brightness levels, while #standards agencies have slept. The #roads are more #dangerous for all of us as a result.

    Plus they bloody hurt the eyes of many of us, and have a tiresome effect, degrading overall levels of #road #safety for everyone.

  6. #Oumuamua was first spotted on October 19, 2017, by a telescope in Hawaii called Pan-STARRS 1.

    At first, scientists thought it was just a regular comet or asteroid -- But as they watched it more closely, they realized it was very different.

    Here are some key things about Oumuamua:

    #Shape: Unlike most asteroids or comets which are round or lumpy, Oumuamua was long and thin, like a cigar or a pancake. Scientists believe it was shaped somewhat like a cucumber.

    #Movement: It moved incredibly fast! It came into our solar system from a direction that wasn’t expected for a regular comet. It then zipped around the Sun and headed back out into space.

    No #Tail: Comets usually have a bright tail of gas and dust as they get close to the Sun. This tail forms when the Sun’s heat causes ice on the comet to turn into gas. But Oumuamua didn’t have a tail, which was very unusual for something moving so fast near the Sun.

    #Brightness Changes: As it tumbled through space, its brightness changed a lot. This told scientists that it was spinning and that its shape was very elongated.

    Because it was so different from anything we had seen before, Oumuamua sparked many ideas and theories.

  7. Display brightness: "… some backlight hardware simply is not controllable with FreeBSD …" – true or false?

    Would "not easily controllable" be truer?

    Before today, I never thought to look for anything even vaguely backlight-related in the Power section of the FreeBSD Foundation's <github.com/orgs/FreeBSDFoundat> …

  10. It's a real low point when your screen is so ancient that even in complete darkness, you have to light up the room just to see what's on it!

    ...Or maybe it's just my eyes 😆

    Agree with someone else: my screens are set at the minimum possible brightness.

    The general rule of thumb is that your screen should be approximately the same brightness as a white piece of paper held at the same distance. Less than that, and you invite eyestrain, more than that you get the "OMG my corneas have sunstroke".
