It's a periodic publication that got published (I suppose) when they had a satisfying amount material for a single volume. The filenames go: [year] - [volume].

If copper is not valuable, why do you complain when I rip out your phone line and steal the copper? Checkmate liberal

Btw

16.6 thousand years (kyr)

Is "kyr" meant to be read as "kiloyears"?

 

This has already been reported on in this community, but a link to the original article may be desirable too.

Abstract

The Indonesian archipelago is host to some of the earliest known rock art in the world. Previously, secure Pleistocene dates were reported for figurative cave art and stencils of human hands in two areas in Indonesia—the Maros-Pangkep karsts in the southwestern peninsula of the island of Sulawesi and the Sangkulirang-Mangkalihat region of eastern Kalimantan, Borneo. Here we describe a series of early dated rock art motifs from the southeastern portion of Sulawesi. Among this assemblage of Pleistocene (and possibly more recent) motifs, laser-ablation U-series (LA-U-series) dating of calcite overlying a hand stencil from Liang Metanduno on Muna Island yielded a U-series date of 71.6 ± 3.8 thousand years ago (ka), providing a minimum-age constraint of 67.8 ka for the underlying motif. The Muna minimum (67.8 ± 3.8 ka) exceeds the published minimum for rock art in Maros-Pangkep by 16.6 thousand years (kyr) (ref. 5) and is 1.1 kyr greater than the published minimum for a hand stencil from Spain attributed to Neanderthals, which until now represented the oldest demonstrated minimum-age constraint for cave art worldwide. Moreover, the presence of this extremely old art in Sulawesi suggests that the initial peopling of Sahul about 65 ka involved maritime journeys between Borneo and Papua, a region that remains poorly explored from an archaeological perspective.

Fuck. Vimeo is used by many filmmakers and streaming services, moving all of that content elsewhere will be downright impossible to carry out completely. A lot of content will be irrecoverably lost once the company is really killed off.

Last year or so they disabled viewing other people's profiles or even searching the website for users in the EU. I have to admit I haven't seen any service being so actively destroyed by its owners.

Earlier, I wasn't convinced this was due to Spotify because it happened incredibly quickly after the news about the scraping. Two weeks or so after AA's announcement, I'd hardly believe this sort of domain takedown can be carried out so swiftly, without the pirated material even being available on the site yet. Guess I was wrong, Spotify money can do miracles.

It's a forum in Europe but many businessmen there were certainly from the US. It's the World Economic Forum, after all.

No, silly, that's not estrogen but Estragon, a character from Samuel Beckett's classic modernist play Waiting for Godot.

Lumping Baltic countries together with Hungary and Slovakia shows you don't actually know much about the political situation there and shouldn't try to make predictions about them.

The rest of your comment is too implausible for me to want to discuss it in detail. I really don't get the impression you've actually thought through any of the scenarios you're coming up with. Canada fighting the most powerful military in the world that completely surrounds it on land? China attacking its biggest individual trading partner (by teleporting soldiers onto the other side of the world somehow) and having anything to gain from destabilising the world economy? Wars aren't carried out in the media, Trump won't be stopped and Greenland won't be defended with a new round of "Trump bad" articles in US media.

Probably, because if they didn’t, there’s no guarantee they wouldn’t be next.

The powerful ones simply wouldn't be next. Weak ones might be, but they in particular won't be able to do shit about Greenland.

The conflict, if it comes to it, will play out through less direct means.

Don't forget the incredibly organised mafia (primarily cocaine trafficking) spanning pretty much the entire world.

 

In 1975, Martin met Dune author Frank Herbert at a book convention and they shared a drink. The meeting was “near the end of Herbert’s life,” Martin says. Herbert had written many acclaimed novels, but all fans seemed to want was more Dune. Herbert’s publisher had just offered him a modest advance for a story he wanted to write, or six times that number for another Dune novel.

“He didn’t like Dune anymore and he didn’t want to write any more Dune books,” Martin says. “But he felt locked in by the success of Dune, so he kept writing them.”

Martin finishes … and waits.

I ask: Do you relate to how Herbert felt?

“I’m not necessarily tired of the world [of Ice and Fire],” he says. “I love the world and the world-building. But, yes, I do.”

Béla Tarr passed away on 6 January 2026 after a long and serious illness. We will miss him.

 

The extensive damage means that about 35,000 households will be without electricity until Thursday afternoon, Berlin authorities said in a statement. Power should be restored to other homes by early Sunday.
