  • Move to feddit.org?

  • Certainly, is there a way to migrate or we just gotta make a new sublemmy there?

  • We have now published a new and massively extended/reworked preprint of the whole-body #Platynereis larval #connectome with over 50 figures

  • Super impressive Gasper! Would have loved to have the same for our Bryozoan back when I worked on their Phototaxis. I think Harald started working with Catmaid when I left the lab but as far as I know not much has come out yet.

  • Can the act of assigning a score to someone constitute a decision?

    Jump

  • I wonder how this might impact applications for jobs. I assume often an automatic score is generated and if there is a company performing the screening for the hiring entity, this decision could be subject to this ruling

  • Scientists discover unknown prehistoric world — on Earth

    Jump

  • Dude, while stromatolites are not common today, they are not unheard of. There are still some active ones in Australia, Peru and the Bahamas. Every single thing on this planet can trace a direct line from the first live when it evolved. Thus, everything on this planet has the same age. Even if a fossil could suggest that some organism has not changed much for millions of years, we can not look at the cells and their genetic makeup to infer if other significant changes have occurred not reflected by the fossil remains.

  • Scientists discover unknown prehistoric world — on Earth

    Jump

  • "unknown prehistoric world" sounds like a major discovery. If the title of the article would have been "stromatolites discovered in remote lagoon from 1 billion years ago" it would not have implied that some new "world" was discovered. If by world we just mean unknown habitats, well voila, everywhere you look there will be unknown prehistoric worlds. Find a fossil of some super known, cosmopolitan species but in a new place, voila, new world yet unknown to men discovered. Idiotic.

    Jump

  • Whats so revolutionary? Stromatolites have been found 3.4 billion years ago from Australia. How is this “unknown prehistoric world”… clickbait is all it is without much content

  • Why do many microwave ovens hum in an interval of a minor 7th?

    Jump

  • Do you also observe this when running the microwave on max power? Usually, when a microwave states its 800 watts but you can adjust it down, it actually only changes the duration that power is supplied. So 400 watts would be 50% of the time the power is supplied at max.

  • Not really. I of course have the option to share them but I choose not to. There is no obligation for anyone to freely make something available they spend time and money on to create. Not sure where this entitlement is coming from.

  • There is a nice easter egg on the page, it has to do with the crowbar at the bottom!

  • Things can move a bit, I did shake the box with everything inside, nothing came loose or was damaged afterwards. I rarely shake my games a lot so this would be secondary for me. It also still leaves some room for expansions if I want to add them.

  • hi, yes, all 3D printed but I dont like sharing my files, sorry

  • Recap Monday Week 44 - which boardgames did you play last week?

    Jump

  • Last Wednesday we played a 4-player game of Evacuation by Vladimir Suchy - we all were new to the game but all came prepared having watched a how-to play video.

    The game is a race to evacuate your people and economy from earth, which has become uninhabitable, to a new planet. During the game you will have to dismantle you local economy on earth, transport people and infrastructure and build up on the new planet. You will have 4 years to do so and each year is divided into 7 different phases. The action phase is by far the most time consuming as you will use the resources generated to buy ships, build building, settle people and conduct research. To perform actions, you will need to invest your generated energy and as the game progresses and you dismantle your economy on earth you will need to carefully plan to have enough production already on the new home for the next year. Its a balancing act and rather challenging. Each action has a specific value and in the next phase you add all the values together to advance on the progress track which unlocks moving certain aspects of you economy and settling new biomes on the planet.

    While the game only has 4 turns, the phases are long enough and filled with decisions that it does not feel like you need to min/max too much. This is something I never liked about Arnak which is also from CGE. While overall I thought it was an interesting game it feels a bit over-complicated. I would not mind to play again but would not buy it myself to add to the collection. Towards the end of the game everyone is basically performing the same actions (or at least the 4 of us were). Might be possible to play a different strategy but in such a complicated game it can be hard to come up with the alternative strats. The final advancing on the progress track in year 4 feels more or less pointless.

    Furthermore, we also played 2-player Castles of Burgundy which we actually tied in score :D and a game of Ark Nova which was a bit of a slaughter. However, we finally found a good way which avoids shuffling the cards of Ark Nova and makes playing a bit more fun.
