A new study shows that a specific type of silicone, the so-called methylsiloxanes, is widely present in the atmosphere across diverse environments.

Making today very exciting in Linux 7.1 merge window land was a pull request being sent out for introducing the new, modern NTFS file-system driver. Linus Torvalds has yet to comment if he’s going to merge the new driver but it looks like it’s ready for providing a better Linux NTFS experience over the current NTFS3 driver that was upstreamed by Paragon Software a few years ago and hasn’t seen too much feature progress.

My old copy of SMB deluxe on the game boy color was my latest subject for battery replacement. Shame the file got wiped, as IIRC it had stickers or stationary or something that you could write messages on that middle school me probably messed around with.
