[Andrew] Huberman explains that psilocybin binds strongly to our serotonin 2A receptors due to their similar chemical structures, and this bond leads to alterations in perception, mood, and cognition. A large amount of our brains’ 5HT2A receptors are located in the neo-cortex, which includes the prefrontal cortex and areas that mediate sensation. One specific area…
5. Now the exploit was rewritten to read memory, and *blink* out the contents using the LCD backlight. A LEGO construction was built and a webcam would register the binary stream of a few megabytes of memory contents. Slooooow. https://mastodon.social/@bagder/111538350617290554 🤯

Though comcom rescued Apple from a monopolist’s sneaky attempt to drive it out of business, Apple – now a three trillion dollar company – has repeatedly attacked comcom when it was applied to Apple’s products. When Apple did comcom, that was progress. When someone does comcom to Apple, that’s piracy.
Now, the MIT team has shown that the carbon-trapping clays are a product of plate tectonics: When oceanic crust crushes against a continental plate, it can bring rocks to the surface that, over time, can weather into minerals including smectite. Eventually, the clay sediment settles back in the ocean, where the minerals trap bits of…
