Had to drop off some things at the barn and helped put a big ol tractor together, so I didn’t have time to hang with Sandy. That’s okay, though. I yelled her name and she got very confused then went back to eating like 30 seconds later.

An experimental steam deck plugin that works similarly to an iOS anti-motionsickness feature. Basically it shows dots on the edges of the screen, and moves those dots based on the deck’s internal gyroscope to help your eyes have a movement reference.

Suspicious wagers on the US-Israel war in Iran are creating huge windfalls and raising concerns among lawmakers

U.S. Army Secretary Daniel Driscoll announced plans to deploy small modular reactors (SMRs) on Guam and other facilities in the Indo-Pacific region. According to him, the installations are expected to be operational at bases no later than 2028. The main goal of the project, called Janus, is to provide fully autonomous power supply for remote garrisons, where civilian grids are chronically overloaded and unreliable. The issue of electricity shortages is particularly acute in island territories such as Guam, which serves as a key hub for U.S. forces in the region. Defense experts openly state that the deployment of SMRs is aimed at preparing for a potential confrontation with China. As Beijing expands not only its nuclear arsenal but also its long-range strike capabilities to disrupt traditional maritime supply routes, the dependence of bases on diesel fuel deliveries is becoming a critical vulnerability. Pentagon analysts have repeatedly noted that, in the event of a conflict, communication lines to Guam would come under direct threat from the missile forces of the People’s Liberation Army. Under such conditions, only compact nuclear installations capable of operating for several years without refueling and without the need for constant fuel deliveries can ensure the uninterrupted functioning of radars, communications systems, and other infrastructure in isolation. In May 2025, a presidential order set a deadline to launch the first such reactor at a military site by September 30, 2028. As early as October, the U.S. Army officially began implementing the Janus program, which involves adapting civilian SMR technologies for military needs. Local lawmakers in Guam and environmental groups point to another concern: they argue that storing nuclear fuel on an island within range of Chinese missiles is too dangerous, and that in the event of a military conflict, it could inevitably lead to large-scale radioactive contamination of the territory.

The Chinese space agency has officially extended the Shenzhou-21 mission by one month, keeping its three-member crew aboard the Tiangong Space Station longer than originally scheduled. This strategic decision, finalized after high-level consultations within China’s manned space program, aims to maximize the scientific and operational output of the current orbital residency.

Engineers are confident that shutting down the LECP will give Voyager 1 about a year of breathing room. They are using the time to finalize a more ambitious energy-saving fix for both Voyagers they call “the Big Bang,” which is designed to further extend Voyager operations. The idea is to swap out a group of powered devices all at once — hence the nickname — turning some things off and replacing them with lower-power alternatives to keep the spacecraft warm enough to continue gathering science data.

I’ve been tattooing for a while now and I’ve seen it all, people falling asleep, people passing out, and everything in between. But every time I sit in the chair as the client, my stomach still doing backflips and I get those “first tattoo” jitters. I know exactly what the needle feels like, I know the process, and I know I’m going to love the result, yet I still find myself overthinking the pain or the long session ahead. Is this a common thing for pros, or am I just a bit of a wuss when the roles are reversed? Would love to hear from other artists or heavily tattooed people, does the “pre-session anxiety” ever actually go away, or do you just get better at hiding it?

Executive summary: The U.S. Air Force and its mission partners are fielding new mission capabilities on airframes and command-and-control (C2) nodes to compress the kill chain. The find, fix, track, target, engage, assess (F2T2EA) process requires ubiquitous access to data at the strategic, operational and tactical levels. Red Hat® Device Edge embeds captured, analyzed, and federated data sets in a manner that positions the warfighter to use artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI/ML) to increase the accuracy of airborne targeting and mission-guidance systems. Challenges of edge computing on aircraft and other tactical C2 edge nodes include delivering consistent capabilities on diverse hardware (new and old, connected and disconnected), meeting airworthiness security requirements, and efficiently sustaining software at scale. The Air Force can meet these requirements with Red Hat Device Edge, the edge-optimized software platform that is hardware agnostic.
