Numerous human inventions, from cell towers to fluorescent light bulbs, may serve as a beacon indicating the existence of life if an extraterrestrial race were to observe Earth. We are a team of two scientists engaged in SETI or the hunt for alien intelligence. In our studies, we look for characteristics and indications of Technology originating from places other than Earth. We refer to these as techno signatures. While it may seem simple to scan the skies for a TV broadcast of some otherworldly Olympics, finding evidence of distant, intelligent civilizations is far more complex and challenging than it may first appear. using radios and lasers to say “hi.” When astronomers Giuseppe Cocconi and Philip Morrison demonstrated that radio signals from Earth could be picked up by radio telescopes at interstellar distances, the present scientific hunt for alien intelligence got underway. The first SETI project, Project Ozma, was started in the same year by Frank Drake. He poi...

Fallout 4 has perhaps the most dramatic introduction of any Fallout game. The Sole Survivor, whether that be the mother or father of Shaun, actually predates the war, surviving the nuclear apocalypse by hauling ass to an open vault and then cryogenically freezing themselves to awaken hundreds of years later. As cool as that intro sequence is, it’s not exactly realistic. The player character is actually above ground when a nuclear explosion goes off and only survives because the vault’s elevator dips below ground level just as the shockwave arrives. The reality of being anywhere near a nuclear explosion when it goes off is you’d be vaporized almost instantly with no waiting required.

Do planets have intelligence? That seems to be the main idea behind a new hypothesis put forth by astrobiologists: that planets are also intelligent beings. This thought experiment is based on the idea that planets like Earth have undergone changes due to the collective activity of life, such as that of microorganisms or plants, which has given them the ability to develop a life of their own. The research, which was published in the International Journal of Astrobiology, establishes a framework for evaluating a planet’s intelligence. To think of intelligence in terms of an intergalactic body rather than sentient creatures like humans is a startling prospect. But in a way, a planet can have a “ green mind “; this paradigm offers fresh perspectives on how to deal with crises like climate change and technological upheaval. The researchers defined planetary intelligence as “ cognitive activity ” and knowledge operating on a large planetary scale. We know intelligen...

Twitch ads are a necessary but annoying thing. In theory, they help keep subscription prices down as they allow for streams to be monetised by large companies. In reality, they always seem to pop up just as the person you're watching is about to get a world record or clutch win. That may be a thing of the past as Twitch plans to introduce a feature that will warn you when ads are about to play and allow you to snooze them. As reported by Dexerto, an update on Twitch's blog details the upcoming ad changes planned for 2023. One big change is coming to how streamers disable pre-roll ads. These normally appear before a stream, meaning you have to wait a while to get stuck in. A previous change meant they could be disabled if 90 seconds of ads were run every 30 minutes, but now as long as three minutes are run per hour, it's up to the streamer when they run.

Slovakia is holding a nationwide referendum on amending the country’s constitution to make possible an early election BRATISLAVA, Slovakia -- Slovakia held a nationwide referendum Saturday on amending the country’s constitution to make possible an early election. President Zuzana Caputova’s decided on the ballot last year after three opposition parties gathered over 380,000 signatures supporting the move. The constitution currently doesn’t offer such an option. In Saturday's vote, Slovaks are asked whether they agree that the Constitution should be amended to allow a snap election if it’s approved by Parliament or in a referendum . Slovakia’s constitutional court ruled in November at Caputova’s request that another referendum question — proposed by the opposition — asking whether the government should immediately resign, violates the constitution. To be legally binding, turnout in the ballot must be more than 50% in the nation of 5.4 million people. In the previous eight referendu...

I'll give you a hint: He would be the first three-time winner since Larry Bird in the mid-eighties. Yes, Nuggets star Nikola Jokic would take home the award halfway through this season, our staff says, but there are also votes for Luka Doncic and Jayson Tatum, who should keep the MVP race interesting in the second half.
