From Zenless Zone Zero to The First Descendant, we seem to be experiencing a free-to-play explosion. Despair, all you time-strapped adults, as your carefully crafted lack of pocket money offers no protection against the onslaught of games that want a piece of your evening or weekend. Today’s big release, Once Human, does at least include a giant school bus on monster legs, along with a less exciting but customizable bus that only has wheels. In this open-world survival shooter, you are a “Meta-Human” making your way through a landscape tainted by Stardust, which has warped the landscape and slowly drives you insane.

CERN experiment reveals “spooky action at a distance” persists between top quarks – The Debrief
Quantum entanglement in top quarks has been demonstrated, according to CERN physicists who say the discovery provides new insights into the behavior of fundamental particles and their interactions at distances that cannot be reached by light-speed communications. The research, led by Professor Regina Demina of the University of Rochester, extends the phenomenon known as ‘spooky … Read more
Faster than the speed of light: information transfer through ‘spooky action at a distance’ at the Large Hadron Collider
The inside of the Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) experiment at the Large Hadron Collider. Rochester physicists working on the detector have observed that the spin entanglement between top quarks and top antiquarks persists at long distances and high speeds.

What we played: Spooky pirate ships, space monks and chefs
May 24, 2024 Hello! Welcome back to our regular article where we write about some of the games we’ve played over the last few days. This week we lean on sailors’ superstitions to scare a boat full of pirates, travel through space in vast Gothic monasteries, and learn a hard lesson about communication in an … Read more
