The first stars in the universe may have been much smaller than we thought, new research hints — possibly explaining why it's so hard to find evidence they ever existed. According to the new research, the earliest generation of stars had a difficult history. These stars came to be in a violent environment: inside a huge gas cloud whipping with supersonic-speed turbulence at velocities five times the speed of sound (as measured in Earth's atmosphere). A simulation underpinning the new research also showed gases clustering into lumps and bumps that appeared to herald a coming starbirth. The cloud broke apart, creating pieces from which clusters of stars seemed poised to emerge. One gas cloud eventually settled into the right conditions to form a star eight times the mass of our sun — much smaller than the 100-solar-mass behemoths researchers previously imagined in our early universe. "With the presence of supersonic turbulence, the cloud becomes fragmented into multiple smaller clumps, leading to the formation of several less massive stars instead," principal researcher Ke-Jung Chen, a research fellow at the Academia Sinica Institute of Astronomy and Astrophysics in Taiwan https://www.livescience.com/space/astronomy/scientists-may-finally-know-why-the-first-stars-in-the-universe-left-no-trace -

No, it's probably not the de-specialized edition, but Disney could surprise the 'Star Wars' faithful when the rerelease drops in theaters in 2027. It might not be the big anime-style birthday remake some "Star Wars" acolytes were hoping for, but "Star Wars: A New Hope" will be blasting back into movie theaters to celebrate its landmark 50th anniversary starting in April of 2027. The sprawling space opera is set to hit the silver screen again with a special limited-edition theatrical run beginning on April 30, 2027, and aptly running through the official Star Wars Day holiday on May the 4th. This will be the planet-wide event too, so international Star Wars fans won't miss out. There is a sliver of hope for purist fans that perhaps Disney might pull out an untouched archival print — the original version of the sci-fi sensation that first hit theaters on May 25, 1977 — but it's unlikely that Disney would risk upsetting creator George Lucas. Instead, we'd expect a freshened-up 1997 20th anniversary print to be the star attraction. https://www.space.com/entertainment/space-movies-shows/star-wars-a-new-hope-will-return-to-theaters-to-celebrate-its-50th-anniversary-but-disney-didnt-say-which-version -

Those are not rights. Those were special treatments that were taken away that non-trans whatever didn't get. They should be treated like every other person, not special. They can still go get their "trans-affirming" care, they just have to pay for it like everyone else. -

Realistically how many difficult thinking request does the average person needs per week? The simplest 'nonthinking' model is way more powerful than anything we had 18 months ago. While the average person using these things for? I wonder how many games coding apps I've just thrown together for the sake of having fun or testing. I know I've done it. I think we've got to a stage where we just randomly asking ChatGPT anything even if we don't use 95% of what we ask it. These thinking instances do have a cost, environmentally as well as other resources. As we all know the limits will go up, but I don't think it's a bad start.
