Also seedy, but delicious.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase_(matter)

Nonclassical States: Amorphous Solid, Plastic Crystal, Liquid Crystal, Copolymer

Magnetically Ordered states: transition metal, quantum spin liquid.

Superfluids and condensates: Bose-Einsteincondensate, fermionic condensate

High-energy states: Degenerate matter, Quantum Chromodynamic (QCD) Matter, Color-glass condensate, very high energy states

Proposed: Supersolid, String-net liquid, superglass, chain-melted state, quantum hall effect, photonic matter,

Top contenders:

Red-cockaded Woodpecker — "cockaded" refers to a ribbon or rosette ornament once worn on hats, not anatomy.

Cock-of-the-rock — sounds like a tavern name invented by a teenager.

Dickcissel — often cited as the funniest North American bird name. "Dick" was historically a common nickname for a male bird.

Bush Thick-knee — not penis-related, but frequently gets laughs.

Rufous-naped Lark — harmless, but "rufous-naped" is often misread at a glance. Shag — in British English, perfectly normal; elsewhere, not so much.

Cockatoo — contains "cock," though the name comes from Malay, not English.

Woodcock — another classic.

Black-cockatoo and other cockatoos — bonus points for stacking "cock" into longer names.

Are people not profiting off their feel good hormones just like they would getting a shiny new doohickey?

SHOULDN'T all these people be paid?

I vocally judge every english bulldog and pug owner and only recant if they were a rescue.

Does anyone have a X-Files Kai recommendation lol?

I ain't got the time for 218 episodes.

No, and your rent goes down by an equivalent amount for the 13th month as well.

These newsletters come out all the damn time and are relatively easy to get signed up for these Fusion Center briefs. You can generally apply if you have at least a remote level of need for them either through physical security, or cyber security.

They're typically based on SAR (suspicious activity reporting), so they're essentially briefs and generally tip guides about things that might be happening in your state or area. All those tips that you send via tips.fbi.com or similar tend to make their way to your local fusion center. They get marked down for relevant current political climate stuff from multiple agencies, typically include thwarted terrorist events or online calls for action, and will usually training available.

While most of the info in these newsletters are For Official Use Only, there's a lot that might straight up be publicly available which can still be shared under the CUI Program. You just can't share the entire document itself since it's typically unclassified, but that doesn't mean you can share it publicly. Parts of it maybe, it'll tell you which parts you can. It's similar to Traffic Light Protocol for any CISA stuff if you get those. TLP Clear is capable of being publicly released. Everything else has some sort of limitation.

Just to back this up, the 32 ICE murders in 2025 didn't involve US Citizens.

Keith Porter was also a US Citizen, but we don't have high quality video of the dude being executed from multiple angles in broad daylight.

Ya'll know Veracrypt isn't Bitlocker right?

 
 

It feels like wasted power. You could at least be earning something off it. The creator can either take a cut if it's free or lump sum for paid.

I've seen a few idle games take up a lot CPU resources, not necessarily GPU so it had me wondering. Why not make it mine?
