The good news: we can cool the planet!
The bad news: nobody wants to step up and do the job.

More contagious. Acts faster. The pneumonic plague.
Russia's plague outbreak is getting worse, now with 5 hospitals in Irkutsk quarantined, universities canceling classes and accusations from healthcare workers that the government is attempting a media cover-up.
Nearly 200 contacts of a 28-year-old anti-plague laboratory worker who died last week are reportedly under isolation or medical observation.
Irkutsk universities are canceling classes citing a “case of pneumonic plague,” while an aluminum plant introduced mandatory masks. A local government warning advising residents not to travel to Shelekhov was published and later deleted.
Healthcare workers claim doctors are discussing plague internally while avoiding the diagnosis in official documents.
Russian health authorities continue to deny any plague outbreak, attributing the woman's death to “pneumonia of unknown origin.”
Pneumonic plague is far worse that it's Bubonic cousin as its transmitted directly between humans.

Making the past come alive. The original lithograph is from Doré’s London. The new art is by ChatGPT.

ALT First prompt. Use this detailed storyboard as the basis of a frame of a historical motion picture. Second prompt. Enhance and enlarge.
Another image from Gustave Doré’s documentary illustrations of London in the years 1869-1872. ChatGPT’s first pass was way too bright, considering the cost of illumination in that time. Second pass brought back the squalor of the neighbourhood.

The AI-produced (virtual) series have taken over. They were terrible at first but have improved a lot. Continuity remains a problem, but the stories are increasingly sophisticated.
Some stories are silly but have 100 million level CGI looks.

Others have dialogue and plots that approach the level of big budget mainstream series. This one is part magical realism, detective story and social manners drama.

The world will miss his humility and compassion for his fellow humans.
Afro Cuban vibe here.
A Pulsar spins 716 times a second, at 24% the speed of light, a teaspoon of it outweighs the Mount Everest and this is its real sound, captured by NASA
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The audio is not the pulsar's "real sound" but a sonification of radio waves it emits, as no sound waves can propagate in the vacuum of space. jb.man.ac.uk/~pulsar/Educat… science.nasa.gov/ems/05_radiowa…
Each one of these is like a kick in the nuts.
