Why do I find “match-3” most offensive part of that thought?

Western companies no longer operating in the Russian market, but still producing desirable content. … Western companies have ‘legalized’ piracy in Russia.

100% this.

Media is culture, and IMO people have a right to participate in culture. If it’s excessively difficult or impossible to legitimately access culture, one has the moral right to illegitimately access culture, and share it so others also have access.

It’s inexcusable to refuse to directly sell media. The internet has made it easier than ever to trade access to media for money. Geo-restricted subscription services should be a nice add-on option for power-consumers, not the only way to get access to something.

Nooooo! Not Naomi!

I don’t really follow her content, but I love her existence and all her efforts towards education and awareness on many topics.

I hope she’s able to find freedom again somehow.

Plural? How many idle games are we talking here?

Fucking finally! Now when will they let me transfer all the games I had to put on an alt account back to my main?

(Ok really it’s just 1 game that I haven’t played in ages. I’m not that horny. I just hate having multiple accounts as it eats up headspace)

Thanks! That’s a well-written paper. I don’t know why I keep falling for science journalism’s simplified explanations.

I’ve so-far only skimmed it, but to answer my question they find light dark matter to be the simplest case (I didn’t see a specific range, but they used 250keV as an example), but they also considered a scenario where “dark-zillas” (mass >> 10^10 GeV) are plausible. At least that still narrows the search space a bit 😅

Sadly archive.li seems to be in a broken CAPTCHA loop, so I can’t see the full article. However, I’m struggling to imagine a fundamental universe-spanning interaction that triggers weeks after the big bang, given that the universe has already expanded/cooled enough by 20 minutes to stop fusing nuclei. If there is evidence for a Dark Matter big bang for weeks after the Matter big bang, surely this must have some extreme implications about the possible mass range of DM particles?

One thing nobody seems to be talking about: Just like String Theory, the more new phenomena are needed to make the Dark Matter model work, the further we stray from the edge of Occam’s Razor. While all the research into detecting hypothetical particles has been fun to follow, I can’t help but feel we’re just a few equations away from discovering that the universe is actually pretty MONDane.
