“DESTIGMATIZING AMANITA MUSCARIA.”  Amanita Muscaria is that cute archetypal red mushroom with white dots. It’s psycho...

It appears we may have some new lifeforms on the planet, ones that can take Nitrogen from the air rather than the ground; makes sense considering that 78% of the atmosphere is Nitrogen.

I couldn’t believe it when I read about a geoengineering project changing the reflectivity of clouds in our home, the SF Bay Area, in Scientific American, a mainstream science publication! Maybe there is something to all the airplane trails we see these days that will be discussed to major forums. No such luck in looking at the bigger picture of chemtrails, but there is som...

Hope you all enjoyed your eclipse experience, be it partial, full, or virtual!  Our fav visuals were from the ISS, where you could see the eclipse, appearing as a dark cloud-like 115 mile diameter shadow cast onto the planet’s surface, speeding across the continent, southwest to northeast.  Moving at 2400 km/h, the dark shadow turned day into night for 4 minut...

Lots happening in the AI universe this week, including Sun’s quite humorous report with examples of Google’s faux paus in the name of woke culture.  EMO by AliBaba is scary-good at taking any source image plus audio and making the image look like they are saying/singing the audio. This can bring to life any decent picture of a person, ressurecting dead friends and...

We recorded this show in the aftermath of a large west coast storm, and if you listened in realtime, you would have heard the numerous tech glitches that happened, including dropping off the air multiple times.  But for the podcast version you get to focus on what we found most fascinating this week, not the glitches. In Space News, for example, the PACE mission will dr...

It’s 2024 and time for the annual Consumer Electronics Show, a massive techie spectacle we used to attend every year.  These days, everything there is online and in many ways more accessible to braving the crowds in Las Vegas.
