Sperm whales rattle off pulses of clicks while swimming together, raising the possibility that they’re communicating in a complex language.

Ever since the discovery of whale songs almost 60 years ago, scientists have been trying to decipher their lyrics. Are the animals producing complex messages akin to human language? Or sharing simpler pieces of information, like dancing bees do? Or are they communicating something else we don’t yet understand?
In 2020, a team of marine biologists and computer scientists joined forces to analyze the click-clacking songs of sperm whales, the gray, block-shaped leviathans that swim in most of the world’s oceans. On Tuesday, the scientists reported that the whales use a much richer set of sounds than previously known, which they called a “sperm whale phonetic alphabet.”
People have a pho-ne-tic alphabet too, which we use to produce a practically infinite supply of words. But Shane Gero, a marine biologist at Carleton University in Ottawa and an author of the study, said it’s unclear whether sperm whales similarly turn their phonetic sounds into a language.
“The fundamental similarities that we do find are really fascinating,” Dr. Gero said. “It’s totally changed the way we have to do work going forward.”
Since 2005, Dr. Gero and his colleagues have followed a clan of 400 sperm whales around Dominica, an island nation in the eastern Caribbean, eavesdropping on the whales with u
I miss the Amiga 500 in that list. ;)
We like chrome here as much as a vampire likes sunlight.
I must confess I rushed the first playthrough and was not happy with the outcome. Second playthrough with DLC and paying attention was satisfying. I am looking out for Outer Worlds 2 which is in the making.
I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. I wouldn’t rush it and go through every region on the planets with care so you pick up all missions, meet all the NPC’s as the game has several outcomes from the choices you make.
PC. I only touched my series X lately to clean the dust off.
I like modding games and just a few games support mods on Xbox. I bought it when graphic card prices went up astronomically. After I got me an 6750XT haven’t played on the Xbox. Also older games run @30FPS or some half assed resolution on Xbox. Meh.
Planet Crafter. I am enjoying it, so I played it all weekend.
Yes it is worth another try, you can start a custom sandbox to your likings. Can give you a casual experience.
I play a new sandbox every winter, this time with the DLC.
Some good references too, like that poster on the wall in episode 5, 'a man and his dog ',
Todd produced something that’s actually good‽
Probably a mandatory credit thing, he is too busy fixing Starfield
Like Coper said, Stremio, (realdebrid, torrentio) is the way to go and should work on your firestick
Real debrid is dirt cheap and you get loyalty points. 1000 points is a month extra.
Imma tired of this shit!

Nice and interesting read, thank you for posting.
Sure thing, thanks for the advice Captain. 5 watt charger on it already.
I have a s9+ as a home assistant remote. Put 2 strong magnets in the silicon back cover and stuck it on the fridge.
Got an automation for the charging, when the battery is at 5% adapter on, at 100% off again… the automation toggles a tradfri switch.
Max Payne 1 and 2, F.E.A.R, Far Cry, MAME with a couple of arcade roms like Galaga, Tetris, Pang, Puzzle Bobble, Metal Slug.
And if I get bored with those there is always Microsoft solitair, mine sweeper and mayong to fall asleep on the keyboard.
A raspberry pi with pihole running as dhcp server. In the ISP router turn off DHCP, DNS problem solved as pi will advertise its DNS to all connected devices on the network.
One can just click the reader view/mode button if you’re on Firefox and bypass paywalls and popups. Doesn’t work on all sites but works on this one.
I put in 1300 hrs into fo4 just for the settlement building. With mods though.
