This headline is wild. It's basically the biology news equivalent to "so much for the tolerant left". Bonobo society is peaceful because they stand up for their young rather than just allowing infanticide from males. Their relative peace compared to their male-dominated cousins is a result of actively refusing to tolerate that sort of violence among their own groups.

Why link the paywalled repost instead of the author's actual website?
I came here to say that I don't think the author of this comic has ADHD.
Why would anyone who knows how to play music at any level use an AI to do it, let alone a significant composer?
Just pick up an instrument and fool around with it.
Makes sense. The biggest strength of robust worldbuilding isn't showing it all to your audience, it's hinting at small pieces of it that shows a connection between them and hints at something deeper. Having what feels like a detailed history makes the world feel real, because you can see shadows of it in the foreground. If you actually dig into all of it explicitly in your story that just makes it feel shallow, because you're showing the whole iceberg.
It's why the mystery of the clone wars and Anakin's apprenticeship and betrayal of Obi-wan were intriguing in the original Star Wars trilogy, but end up just being some action movies once it's all fleshed out on screen. Depth stops being depth if you bring it all up to the surface.
Weird timing.
They've also mentioned elsewhere that they'll continue support as long as there's enough of a subscriber base to justify it. If enough people are using it, that 5 years could be much longer. They offer security patches for Windows 7 too.
I'm not really sure what their process is. I'm just glad to be able to keep my current work flow without having to worry about fully losing security updates.
You can also use 0patch to continue to get security updates for Windows 10 if you find it's still a good fit.
If you want to keep using Windows 10, check out 0patch! They're supporting security updates past EOL. It's like €24/year and you can get a 1 month trial for free.
That sounds awesome. The main reason I never got into House of the Dragon was that it was just a bunch of rich people. It would be nice to actually enjoy another Westeros thing.
It's set in the 1490s because that's the current era in Forgotten Realms, just like the first games were set in the 1360s because that was the era that was current at the time. It's not like they actively chose that specific time period for any of the three games.
