@archiesonicwrld Very interesting. What's the source of the commentary on the right?

[Massimo @Rainmaker1973]

Your tattoo isn’t just decorative ink: it’s a permanent trigger that keeps your immune system locked in a lifelong cycle of chronic inflammation.

As soon as the ink is injected into your skin, your body recognizes the pigment particles as foreign invaders. Immune cells called macrophages immediately swarm the area and attempt to swallow them up. But because they can’t actually break down the ink, the macrophages eventually die, releasing the pigment back into the surrounding tissue — only for a new wave of macrophages to arrive and repeat the process.

This endless cycle is what keeps the tattoo permanently visible, while also maintaining a state of ongoing, low-level inflammation in the skin.

Over time, some of these ink particles migrate through the lymphatic system and accumulate in the lymph nodes, placing constant stress on the body’s defense mechanisms. Emerging research suggests this internal ink buildup may interfere with normal immune function, potentially reducing the effectiveness of certain vaccines, including mRNA types. Additionally, many tattoo inks contain heavy metals like nickel and cobalt. Combined with the chronic inflammation, this has been linked to a modestly elevated risk of lymphoma and skin cancer.

While tattoos remain a powerful form of self-expression, they represent a complex, decades-long biological conflict between your immune system and foreign substances embedded in your skin.

D.C. is giving itself a hazardous dose of toxins tonight

> largest fireworks in U.S. history
> dropping 9 metric tons of toxic chemicals on city
> air quality 2-8x higher than "hazardous"
> toxins 17-57x higher than acceptable levels
> chemicals settling into ground, water, food

Ave person will inhale:
> 81 ug Strontium: deposits in lung tissue
> 81 ug Barium: potent gastrointestinal, cardiac toxicant
> 27 ug Aluminum oxides: pulmonary inflammation
> 27 ug Titanium oxides: pulmonary inflammation
> 27 ug Copper: oxidative stress respiratory
> 27 ug Antimony, trace compounds: known carcinogen

It will be an acute exposure. Also, idk, is there another way to celebrate our 250th?

[Ethan Alvarée @EthanAlvaree]

@zacbowden Hoping they introduce a Pro XL instead ;)

[Seth @fiercepatricks]

I am absolutely DISGUSTED that they put this in the new Toy Story 5 film.
Why do they keep shoving the heterosexual lifestyle down our throats and exposing our children to this agenda?
Can't kids just watch a movie without being forced to see straight couples everywhere?
I know it goes on but why do we have to see it? It's everywhere

@ClintRutkas @_c41 @windowsdev @Windows Light switch, mouse without borders, powerrename, etc.

Yes, a bit annoying that it's not built into Windows Settings / File Explorer etc. by default

[Ethan Alvarée @EthanAlvaree]

@jmcwheeler @zacbowden I think it does have 5G as it's a feature of the Qualcomm X2 chipset. But I'm not sure. Just ordered mine.

[Ethan Alvarée @EthanAlvaree]

@pavandavuluri Do they have 5G? And does the laptop support the Surface Pen?

[Ethan Alvarée @EthanAlvaree]

@Daniel_Rubino Sorry for the dumb question. Qualcomm X2 Elite has 5G, right? Placing an order now but didn't see it mentioned/advertised.

[Ethan Alvarée @EthanAlvaree]

@LiminalThread @freeagntrplyguy @HandEManAI @ClaudeDevs @claudeai I would also like to know. Specifically, refund regarding usage credits.

[Ethan Alvarée @EthanAlvaree]

@TheGalox_ Does it have pen support? I am looking for something to replace my aging Surface Laptop Studio 2.

[Ethan Alvarée @EthanAlvaree]

@tomwarren Do we know if it has pen support?

[Ethan Alvarée @EthanAlvaree]

@pavandavuluri @Windows @nvidia Will the Surface Laptop Ultra have pen support? Need something to replace my aging Laptop Studio 2.

[Ethan Alvarée @EthanAlvaree]

@zacbowden Do we know if it has pen support?

[Ethan Alvarée @EthanAlvaree]

@el_cut @LilFormers I hope if Udon reprints them, their sizes could be standardized to roughly the size of a Marvel Omnibus

[Ethan Alvarée @EthanAlvaree]

@el_cut @LilFormers Why are they all different sizes 😭

DC X Sonic the Hedgehog is being uploaded to the @DCOfficial YouTube channel as a motion comic, “animating” the comic panels and adding sound effects to the story.

[Amee Vanderpool @girlsreallyrule]

Bravo to there person who has put these flyers all over Capitol Hill and even thought to put them in waterproof sleeves.

[Ethan Alvarée @EthanAlvaree]

This is what I would like to see for Sonic Origins

[Kai @LordKaizack]

El nuevo Ecco incluye un botón para pasar al vuelo entre diferentes épocas, 8 bits, 16 bits, 32 bits y la que han llamado 64 bits que es el nuevo juego.
Osea que el nuevo es un remaster 1:1
Primera imagen del nuevo también.

@zacbowden How soon are you expecting an announcement? 🤞
