During the Second World War, six talented mathematicians were brought together to make history. These women had one mission: to program the world’s first and only supercomputer. Speaking with Rachel Dinning, Kathy Kleiman explores the vital but overlooked role the “Eniac 6” played in the history of computing during and after the Second World War.

The most outlandish inventions coming out of Fahngorok, are often made by the most competitive of tinkerers. Inventors and scholars of the Scraplands often try to outdo themselves by creating progressively more complicated projects, which oftentimes don't have any purpose other than to showcase that they can be made.

This Ringing Contraption, made with scrap and the remains of an ancient Ogre bell serves no purpose other than to appear imposing to the maker's peers.

We should have learned more about the middle east in school. A lot of the conflict going on today makes a lot more sense with the context of the Ottomans as more than just an enemy Europe had to fight for a while, but actually as a whole empire that got chopped up to serve western interests. We didn't even learn anything about it when being taught about WWI, which literally resulted in its dissolution!

I'm reading a comic where people decide to resurrect Dracula and then when he's resurrected, they try to force him into working for them but also never keep their promises to him. then everybody's gobsmacked when he breaks free and kills everybody. so funny. like king how did you think that was going to play out? did you read the novel? crack open a history book? you thought you could make Dracula/Vlad the Impaler do what you wanted with...*checks notes* ~science~ and the arrogance of modernity? genuinely so curious as to how your thought process works

Letters to the Editor #4 In Defense of Simplicity

Dear Editor, In the ever-evolving landscape of technology, there’s a trend that has me yearning for the days of simplicity – the modern keyboard with its excessive keys and flashy lights. Call me old-fashioned, but the traditional keyboard, like a classic dance, had a charm and elegance that seems lost in the cacophony of today’s mechanical extravagance. Let’s address the elephant in the room –…

I got an advert:

So of course I clicked it. I've given up on Armageddon at this point and I've better things to do but I was curious.

The foolish, foolish person who made this.

No we are not! I would have noticed! We are not at war.

The role of quantum computing in modern technology

Quantum computing is a rapidly evolving field of technology that is poised to have a significant impact on modern society. The key advantage of quantum computers over classical computers is their ability to perform certain computational tasks much faster and more efficiently. This opens up a wide range of potential applications, including drug discovery, cryptography, and artificial intelligence.

Quantum computers use quantum bits, or qubits, instead of classical bits to store and process information. Unlike classical bits, which can only be in a state of either 0 or 1, qubits can exist in multiple states simultaneously, known as superposition. This allows quantum computers to perform certain operations much faster than classical computers by processing multiple bits of information at once.

One of the most promising applications of quantum computing is cryptography. Quantum computers can be used to solve mathematical problems that are difficult for classical computers to solve, such as factoring large numbers. This has the potential to dramatically improve the security of online transactions and communication by making it much more difficult for hackers to intercept and decode sensitive information.

Another area where quantum computing has the potential to make a significant impact is drug discovery. Quantum computers can be used to simulate the behavior of molecules and materials at the atomic and subatomic level, allowing scientists to design and test new drugs more quickly and accurately. This could lead to faster, more effective treatments for a wide range of diseases.

In addition to these applications, quantum computing is also expected to play a key role in advancing the field of artificial intelligence. Quantum algorithms can be used to process and analyze large amounts of data much faster than classical algorithms, which could lead to breakthroughs in machine learning, natural language processing, and computer vision.

In conclusion, the role of quantum computing in modern technology is to provide new and more efficient ways of solving complex computational problems. As technology continues to evolve and improve, it is likely to have a profound impact on many areas of our lives, from cryptography and drug discovery to artificial intelligence and beyond.

Wanted plot :    Together, we conquer, we reign.

Looking for a companion/cult leader associate/king for Kaeleeana ( Tag / Bio ) . Plot inspired in an original lore from midsommar roots to a bene gesserit spirit, in modern times/near future. Transhumanism/dune coded core.

Kaeleena Nara, Mother Supreme of the Church and Sisterhood of Misericorde. The time has changed and so did the world. Now, forces are colliding. She raises daughters, mutated humans of great abilities with the purpose of making the world theirs. A cult, some would ask? A family, she would answer. The sisters of the Sisterhood of Misericorde then find their way to the arms of powerful men, human men, to bare their child and extend their reach. She too, the Mother Supreme, seeks such a partner—but not just any man. Only the strongest, the most formidable of all. He will be her equal, a reflection of the power she wields. A partnership. Should they take the world in their own hands together now? With what he is capable of, what she is capable of as well, if a war between humans and mutants arise, they shall win.

"I promise to never use my abilities on you and to honor our partnership," Kaeleena says, her voice a smooth lullaby. "My daughters, the Sisterhood of Misericorde, will serve our common interest, just as you provide your weapons and soldiers for our shared conquest. I also promise to cherish and love you through this union of ours." Her intense eyes lock with his, a silent challenge in their depths, burning with the weight of her words.

He smirks, his fingers gripping her chin as he tilts her head toward him. "Is such a sadistic, cold heart of yours even capable of love?" he murmurs, his tone dripping with dark amusement.

Kaeleena's lips curve into a wicked smile. "Doesn't that make us perfect for each other, my Sovereign of Terror?" she replies, her voice velvet.

Note: This audio upload is a selection of clips taken from the full-length Patreon interview with Dr. Aaron French. To hear the full interview, please visit my Patreon page; you could consider joining to have access to more content like this, or have the option for a one-time purchase of the full episode (visit the 'shop' link for more information about pricing). https://www.patreon.com/RejectedReligion My guest this month is Dr. Aaron French. Aaron received his doctorate in the study of religion, including an emphasis in science and technology studies, from the University of California, Davis. His monograph Max Weber, Rudolf Steiner, and Modern Western Esotericism: A Transcultural Approach will be published by Routledge in late 2024 in the “Asia, Europe, and Global Connections: Culture, History, and Trans-Area Studies“ book series. Aaron has published numerous peer-reviewed articles in academic journals and regularly gives lectures and presentations at international conferences. He currently teaches in the international Religious Studies Masters program at the University of Erfurt in Germany and works as a postdoctoral researcher at the Freie Universität Berlin. In our conversation, Aaron talks about new areas of research that he’s been exploring regarding the field of ufology, and its connections with esotericism, technology and religion. He’s currently editing a forthcoming interdisciplinary academic collaborative work about this, called Religion and the UFO Phenomenon: Methodological Challenges, that asks the questions, “how best should scholars of the humanities and social sciences approach the UFO phenomenon as an object of study? Why are otherworldly experiences intertwined with new forms of religiosity?” Aaron also gives a re-cap of the recent developments in the U.S. with regard to the UAP, or Unidentified Arial Phenomena, in Senate hearings and discusses the issues surrounding disclosure, with the largely failed attempt to establish a committee that would force the US government to declassify and release all information on UFOs. He then moves on to discuss his own developing research into the connections between ufology and esotericism, and how religion is being transformed, with some in academia speaking now of a new religiosity forming around these experiences. Aaron’s work is looking at this modern esotericism that keeps popping up in this new ‘hybrid technoscientific religiosity’ as he terms it. Ideas of evolution and training for humans who are interested in future realities in space are also discussed in terms of ritual initiation or Hero’s Journey that is likened to the Jedi training of the Star Wars story. In closing, we also explore occulture and the cultural impact on all of this a bit, specifically how these ideas are played out in shows like X-Files and of course, my favorite, Twin Peaks.
