thinking about how witchcraft is innately interdisciplinary. Witches organically acquire skills in the course of their practice that most would never associate with the practice of witchcraft as it is spoken of in modern authors writings. stealth, passing through barbed wire and over electric fencing. Starting fires quickly and efficiently. Reading maps. Undoing complex knots, predicting the weather, cleaning game, processing natural materials into higher orders of product, picking locks, casting embrittle on the weapons of our enemies by coating them with gallium, things of that nature. Witches are basically eagle scouts with better outfits.

A new LED design for next-level realism in immersive displays
From pterodactyls flying overhead in a game to virtually applying cosmetics prior to making a purchase, augmented reality and other immersive technologies are transforming how we play, observe, and learn. Cheap and ultra-small light-emitting diodes (LEDs) that enable full-color imaging at high resolution would help immersive displays reach their full potential, but are not currently available. Now, in a study recently published in Applied Physics Express, a team led by researchers at Meijo University and King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST) has successfully developed such LEDs. The simplicity of their fabrication, via presently available manufacturing methods, means they could be readily incorporated into modern metaverse applications. Why is the development of improved LEDs necessary for immersive reality? The realism of augmented and virtual reality depends in part on resolution, detail, and color breadth. For example, all colors must be evident and distinguishable from one another. Gallium indium nitride semiconductors are versatile materials for LEDs that meet all of these requirements.

Why Ikemen characters would be absolutely done with me:
Me, placing two dishes infront of Issac, with silver liquid inside: Dear Sir, shall we play a game of mercury or Gallium?
Issac: Where did you even get that?
Me: Not telling, but it was probably the black market, or Leo’s room
Issac: Did you at least handle it with gloves
Me: Arther would have spied me and given the answer away
Issac: How are you not dead yet?
———————
Hideyoshi: Has anyone seen Mitsunari? I haven’t been able to find him
Mitsuhide: I do recall a certain mouse saying she was stealing him today to collect rocks
Hideyoshi, already leaving: They are boTH GOING TO GET RUN OVER
———————
Ieyesu: You’re almost as dense as Mitsunari
Me, probably stealing herbs for tea: Bro you are literally so sweet. Thank you. Now where is your Senna, I wanna torture Hideyoshi
Ieyesu: I would ask why, but then we would be sitting here till dawn
———————
Chevy: Why are you standing on my chair this time. You are going to ruin it with your dirty shoes
Me, reaching for a book: Didn’t hear you. Don’t care. The purple koolaid boy stuck my book up here to anger me. It worked, but I can play the waiting game
———————
Nokto: Are you even listening to me?
Me: What did you say? I was distracted by the bird. I think there is a birds nest up there. I’m going to go climb the tree
Nokto: You know, it’s rude to not listen to someone
Me: I have adhd. Talk about politics. Maybe you’ll be able to hold my attention for more then six seconds before I zone out because I’m trying to listen to hard
———————
Me: Yo Wolfie. Imma borrow your piano
Mozart: WAI—
Me, already playing Giorno’s theme for the fifth time in the day: Pardon?
———————
Me, sitting at the table: Water isn’t wet
Issac, already getting up to leave: This is the fifteenth time
Le Comte, understandably confused: Did something happen?
———————
Enjoy overtired me. This is what happens. Also I bought wine today for the first time. French wine. They didn’t card me. This is not the first time this has happened and I’m starting to think I look old

//I think I'm actually going to keep Gallium's steampunk look for his Star Rail verse.
I originally changed it because I felt it didn't fit in a sci-fi universe. But having gotten this far in the game and seeing the characters they've added it's not nearly as out of place as I thought. Plenty of the Xianzhou locals look like fantasy characters and we're getting a literal knight in shining armor next patch. Steampunk isn't out of place if he's dressed that way because it's the fashion of the planet he's from.

The Future of Solar Inverters in Renewable Energy: Harnessing Apt Power Systems
The future of solar energy is bright, with advancements in technology continually enhancing the way we harness, convert, and utilize this abundant source of clean power. At the heart of these developments lies a crucial component – the solar inverter. This device is pivotal in transforming solar energy into usable electricity, and its evolution is set to play a significant role in the renewable energy landscape. In this post, we'll explore the progression of solar inverters and the emergence of apt power systems poised to revolutionize the field.
Understanding Solar Inverters
Before we leap into the future, it's essential to grasp what solar inverters do and why they're foundational to solar energy systems. Solar panels collect sunlight and convert it into direct current (DC) electricity. However, most homes and the broader electricity grid operate on alternating current (AC) electricity. Solar inverters bridge this gap by converting DC into AC, making the energy generated by solar panels utilizable for everyday needs.
Technological Advancements in Solar Inverters
Increased Efficiency
One of the primary focuses in the development of solar inverters has been on increasing their efficiency. Higher efficiency means that a greater percentage of the solar energy captured by panels is converted into usable power. Innovations in semiconductor materials, such as silicon carbide (SiC) and gallium nitride (GaN), have been game-changers, reducing energy losses during the conversion process and thus bolstering overall system efficiency.
Smart and Connected Inverters
The integration of digital technology has led to the creation of smart inverters. These devices can actively monitor and manage electricity flow, optimize performance in real-time, and even provide grid support services. Furthermore, their connectivity allows for remote diagnostics, firmware updates, and integration with home energy management systems, laying the groundwork for more intelligent and responsive solar energy solutions.
Hybrid Inverters
Hybrid solar inverters represent an exciting advancement. These systems can manage inputs from solar panels and battery storage simultaneously, offering a seamless solution for energy storage and utilization. In areas prone to outages or with high electricity rates, hybrid inverters enable homeowners to store excess solar power for use when sunlight is scarce or electricity prices peak, enhancing energy independence and savings.
The Emergence of Apt Power Systems
The term "Apt Power System" refers to the next generation of power systems that are adept, efficient, and tailored to meet the dynamic needs of renewable energy landscapes. These systems encompass not just solar inverters but an ecosystem of energy solutions designed for optimal performance, scalability, and sustainability.
Integration with Renewable Sources
Future solar inverters within apt power systems will seamlessly integrate with various renewable energy sources, including wind, hydro, and geothermal, facilitating a multi-faceted approach to clean energy generation and consumption.
Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning
AI and machine learning algorithms are set to redefine how solar inverters operate, enabling predictive maintenance, automatic performance optimization, and even dynamic pricing models based on real-time grid demands and solar production.
Grid Stability and Energy Democratization
Advancements in inverter technology will also address one of the critical challenges of renewable energy - grid stability. By enabling distributed energy resources (DERs) like residential solar installations to contribute to grid resilience, future solar inverters will help democratize energy production and distribution, empowering consumers and communities alike.
Looking Ahead
The future of solar inverters is intrinsically linked to the broader evolution of renewable energy technologies. As we strive towards a more sustainable and efficient energy future, the innovations in solar inverter technology, along with the development of apt power systems, will be critical in shaping a resilient, renewable energy grid.
By understanding these advancements and preparing for their integration, businesses, homeowners, and policymakers can ensure they are ready to harness the full potential of solar energy. The future is not just about generating renewable energy but doing so in the most efficient, intelligent, and inclusive way possible. Welcome to the dawn of apt power systems in renewable energy.

In a development that seems straight out of a science fiction narrative, researchers at Tsinghua University in Beijing have made a groundbreaking advancement in the realm of memory storage technology. Their creation, a fully flexible resistive random-access memory device aptly named FlexRAM, employs a gallium-based liquid metal (GLM) to revolutionize how data is written and read. This innovation is not just a leap forward in memory technology; it's a veritable game-changer in the quest for truly flexible electronic devices. "FlexRAM's ability to withstand nearly any form of deformation, including stretching, bending, and twisting, opens up new avenues for the application of memory storage systems," explained one of the lead researchers. "This is akin to the fictional T-1000 robot from Terminator 2, but for the realm of data storage." Published in the prestigious journal Advanced Materials, the team's research elucidates a novel approach where GLM droplets undergo reversible electrochemical oxidation. This process allows for the modulation of conductivity, enabling the storage of digital information as 1s and 0s through low voltage manipulations. "We've essentially mimicked the hyperpolarization and depolarization of neurons, enabling our device to store data in a way that was previously unimaginable," the researcher added. To showcase FlexRAM's capabilities, the team encoded an array of eight storage units with a string of letters and numbers, achieving the equivalent of 1 byte of data information. This demonstration, reported by IEEE Spectrum, involved a sophisticated setup that converted digital signals from a computer into analog ones, controlling the GLM droplets' state through pulse-width modulation. The physical resilience of FlexRAM is matched by its operational stability, showcasing a potential for over 3,500 cycles of data retention and manipulation. Despite its current prototype being volatile memory, it can retain data for up to 12 hours without power. "Our goal is to explore different forms of memory, pushing the boundaries of what's possible with liquid metal RAM," said another team member. Encapsulated in Ecoflex, a stretchable biopolymer, and utilizing a 3D-printed mold injected with GLM droplets and a polyvinyl acetate hydrogel solution, FlexRAM's design is both innovative and practical. This encapsulation not only enhances the device's resistance ratio but also prevents solution leakage, a crucial step towards commercial viability. The implications of FlexRAM extend far beyond traditional electronics, hinting at future applications in soft intelligent robots, brain-machine interface systems, and wearable or implantable electronics. "Imagine electronic devices that can seamlessly integrate with the human body, or soft robots that can perform complex tasks with an intelligence akin to biological beings. FlexRAM brings us closer to that reality," the research team shared with a palpable sense of excitement. As the boundaries between the digital and physical worlds continue to blur, FlexRAM stands as a testament to the ingenuity of researchers pushing the limits of technology. This flexible memory device not only challenges our conventional understanding of data storage but also redefines the possibilities of future electronic innovations.
