I stumbled over this independent journalist and transparency advocate's website, which has a page titled "123 Things Emma Did", which has highlights like the following and made me want to share

5. I was once chastised for “having a staring contest with a security camera.”
6. They said I wasn’t allowed to use the suggestion box anymore because I kept suggesting design changes for the box.

Looking at the About page, she has an impressive record [beyond trolling/having fun].

PresentMon is a set of tools to capture and analyze the high-level performance characteristics of graphics applications on Windows. PresentMon traces key performance metrics such as the CPU, GPU, and Display frame durations and latencies; and works across different graphics API such as DirectX, OpenGL, and Vulkan, different hardware configurations, and for both desktop and UWP applications.

Steam store pages received a new Anti-cheat field. Disclosure is mandatory for kernel-level anti-cheat solutions. And recommended for other anti-cheat solutions (like server-side or non-kernel-level client-side).

The field discloses the anti-cheat product, whether it is a kernel-level installation, and whether it uninstalls with the product or requires manual removal to remove.

This game is so pointless and forgettable that I can't even be bothered to write a description. It sucks, don't play it. Watch my video instead!

This GitHub repository has the technical details.

Abstract (added emphasis and paragraphing):

Anthropogenic methane (CH4) emissions increases from the period 1850–1900 until 2019 are responsible for around 65% as much warming as carbon dioxide (CO2) has caused to date, and large reductions in methane emissions are required to limit global warming to 1.5°C or 2°C.

However, methane emissions have been increasing rapidly since ~2006. This study shows that emissions are expected to continue to increase over the remainder of the 2020s if no greater action is taken and that increases in atmospheric methane are thus far outpacing projected growth rates.

This increase has important implications for reaching net zero CO2 targets: every 50 Mt CH4 of the sustained large cuts envisioned under low-warming scenarios that are not realized would eliminate about 150 Gt of the remaining CO2 budget. Targeted methane reductions are therefore a critical component alongside decarbonization to minimize global warming.

We describe additional linkages between methane mitigation options and CO2, especially via land use, as well as their respective climate impacts and associated metrics. We explain why a net zero target specifically for methane is neither necessary nor plausible. Analyses show where reductions are most feasible at the national and sectoral levels given limited resources, for example, to meet the Global Methane Pledge target, but they also reveal large uncertainties.

Despite these uncertainties, many mitigation costs are clearly low relative to real-world financial instruments and very low compared with methane damage estimates, but legally binding regulations and methane pricing are needed to meet climate goals.

researchers conducted experimental surveys with more than 1,000 adults in the U.S. to evaluate the relationship between AI disclosure and consumer behavior

The findings consistently showed products described as using artificial intelligence were less popular

“When AI is mentioned, it tends to lower emotional trust, which in turn decreases purchase intentions,”
