@mikemearls 🎯 The 4e system (and some of what was imported into 5e) feels like it was made to be run by a computer. Maybe it was done invovluntarily, but some of the MMO concepts that were brought to 4e just overload the players and DMs with tiny modifiers to keep track of.

A very warm welcome to Marcos Guimarães @mhdguimaraes, our new Associate Professor in the Physics of Energy Materials 💫 His research explores charge, light, spin and magnetism in quantum van der Waals nanoscale materials to enable more energy-efficient information technologies.

Neste dia em que sanciono o Projeto de Lei que cria o Dia Nacional em Memória das Vítimas da Covid-19, peço um minuto de silêncio em memória daqueles que nos deixaram em decorrência da pandemia. A cada família que perdeu um ente querido, a cada brasileiro que perdeu um amigo, uma amiga, deixo um fraterno abraço.

Neste dia, é importante também fazer um reconhecimento ao SUS. Que é feito por nossa gente, que se manteve firme quando a população mais precisou. Médicos e médicas, enfermeiras e enfermeiros. Motoristas, pessoas que lavam as roupas, que limpam o chão dos nossos hospitais e recepcionam os pacientes. Arriscaram suas vidas para proteger a do próximo. A todos vocês, que fizeram e fazem o SUS, o meu muito obrigado. E a cada brasileiro e brasileira que atuou de forma voluntária para ajudar a nossa população, deixo também a minha gratidão.

The NBA mourns the passing of Oscar Schmidt (1958-2026). The Brazilian basketball legend debuted for Brazil at 19 in 1977 and played in every Olympics from 1980 to 1996. Oscar’s the all-time leading scorer in Olympic history with more than 1,000 points and was inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame in 2013. We extend our deepest condolences to the Schmidt family.

O discurso de Oscar Schmidt ao entrar no Hall da Fama do Basquete é de arrepiar! A lenda do esporte desistiu de jogar na NBA por conta da seleção brasileira. 🇧🇷

Happy #QuantumDay!

Far beyond science fiction, quantum technology could help NASA scientists study Earth with greater precision—from crop forecasts to severe weather prediction and mapping underground resources.

Earthset.

The Artemis II crew captured this view of an Earthset on April 6, 2026, as they flew around the Moon. The image is reminiscent of the iconic Earthrise image taken by astronaut Bill Anders 58 years earlier as the Apollo 8 crew flew around the Moon.

This looks like it's a daytime shot, but, it's actually taken from the dark side of Earth, with the planet illuminated by moonlight. This lets faint details like the aurora, stars and the sodium layer show up without over exposing the planet.

Good morning, world! 🌎

We have spectacular new high-resolution images of our home planet, all of us looking back through the Orion capsule window at our Artemis II astronauts as they continue their journey to the Moon.

[NASA Earth @NASAEarth]

That's us! 🌍

The Artemis II crew captured beautiful, high-resolution images of our home planet during their journey to the Moon. As @Astro_Christina put it: "You guys look great."

Bonjour à toutes et tous, désolés d’avoir traîné à communiquer sur le sujet. La situation initiée par les représentants juridiques de notre studio était nouvelle pour nous et complexe à gérer. Nous voulions nous assurer de pouvoir en discuter avec toutes les parties prenantes pour être sûrs de comprendre ce qu’il se passait avant de partager des informations avec vous.

Sandfall travaillait à retirer les demandes de notre représentant légal, ce qui est maintenant fait. Leur rôle est de nous protéger notamment contre les produits contrefaits, mais l'action initiée envers la bande dessinée « L’Académie Clair-Obscur » parue en janvier 2026 ne nous correspond pas.

Nous avons toujours voulu soutenir les artistes et encourager la créativité, et c’est l’une des valeurs les plus importantes que nous voulons défendre à Sandfall.

On souhaite plein de succès à Olivier et Grelin pour leur bande dessinée ! 🖌️

The New York Times agrees — Rochester is one of the best up-and-coming places to live.

Our city has an incredible mix of culture, community, and opportunity, making it a pretty special place to call home. https://t.co/ZR3OySI9vQ

Like most African Americans born into slavery, Frederick Douglass never knew his birthday-he chose February 14

The abolitionist spent his most active years in Rochester, and one of the most extensive collections of his papers is held in Rush Rhees Library https://t.co/OPylm95xqM

Seeing in 3D may depend on eye movement more than we thought 👁️
