The image is a screenshot of a scientific article titled "What Is the Contribution of Urban Trees to Mitigate Pluvial Flooding?" by Karina Sinai Medina Camarena, Thea Wübbelmann, and Kristian Förster. The article is published in the journal "Hydrology" by MDPI. The authors' affiliations are listed, with the first author from the Institute of Hydrology and Water Resources Management at Leibniz Universität Hannover, Germany, and the second author from the Climate Service Center Germany (GERICS) and the Institute of Physical Geography and Landscape Ecology at Leibniz Universität Hannover, Germany.

The article includes a table with data on peak discharge (A max [l/s]), quarter scale (A Quarter Scale [%]), volume (A Volume [%]), and tree scale (A Tree Scale [l]) for four events (#1 to #4). The table shows the differences in peak discharge and volume between observed and modeled values, with highlighted text emphasizing the differences in peak discharge at the quarter scale, which range between 17% and 27%.

The highlighted text in the image states: "The differences in peak discharge at the quarter scale range between 17% and 27% and, therefore, exceed the differences between observed and modeled peak runoff for all events. Predicted changes in peak runoff associated to changes in tree coverage therefore clearly exceed the inaccuracy of predicting model discharge by an order of magnitude. The values are highest for events 2 (27%) and 1 (25%), while they are lower but still in the order of 15–20% for events 3 and 4. Likewise, changes in volume reach up to 17% for event 2 if trees are not included. Similar values are reached for event 1 and 4 (15%), and for event 3 (11%). These rates of change demonstrate that the coverage of trees, though no dominant land use fraction, is important for reducing water during heavy rainfall events. The average tree-scale values are remarkable: Peak runoff is reduced by 0.139 ± 0.033 l/s for all events. Even though the corresponding contribution of reducing peak runoff is small (~0.04%), the average value of 0.139 ± 0.033 l/s is still a tangible result. In terms of volume, the relative contribution for each tree is also small (~0.02%). However, the average difference in volume computed (631 l) is still the value one expects from just considering maximum interception capacity: the average projected area of an average tree amounts to 439.5 l of intercepted water for each tree (439.5 l · 611 trees = 268,535 l for all 611 trees). This is an interception capacity yields up to 10 mm."

The image shows a terminal window with a command line interface. The terminal is running a command that appears to be related to a CAPTCHA solver, specifically a tool named "simd-mcaptcha." The command includes options such as "-profile-mt," "-n-threads 32," "-difficulty 6," and "-speed." The output of the command displays various performance metrics, including rates in "rp/s" (requests per second) and "GH/s" (gigahashes per second), with values ranging from 0 to 80. The terminal is running on a system with the username "yume" and the hostname "tsubasa." The background of the terminal is dark, and the text is in a light color, making it easy to read. The command is interrupted with a SIGINT signal, as indicated by the "(SIGINT)" in the command prompt.

The image displays a command-line output from a computational process, specifically related to a double block solver used in solving cryptographic puzzles, likely for mining purposes. The output includes timestamps and performance metrics, such as time taken to solve the puzzle and the hash rate in MH/s (megahashes per second). The text is organized in a tabular format, with each row representing a separate instance of the solver's performance. The first column shows the time taken to solve the puzzle, ranging from 0.010 to 0.292 seconds. The second column displays the difficulty of the puzzle, with values like 16757169581855927515305344. The third column shows the hash rate, with values such as 78.08 MH/s and 64.85 MH/s. The fourth column contains a sequence of numbers, likely representing the solution to the puzzle. The output is consistent with the format used in cryptocurrency mining software, where the solver's performance is tracked over time.

The image features a benchmarking chart titled "Benchmarking Anubis!" on the left side, with a table listing various times and iterations. The table includes the following data:

  • 1149ms, 97752
  • 942ms, 44343
  • 358ms, 38474
  • 1074ms, 72001
  • 2546ms, 142523
  • 140ms, 3749
  • 185ms, 9454
  • 1313ms, 69721
  • 1484ms, 84876
  • 61ms, 3081
  • 137ms, 13569

The average hashrate is noted as 67.321kH/s. On the right side, there is a cartoon character with cat-like ears, wearing a nurse's hat with a red cross, holding a magnifying glass and pointing upwards. The character has brown hair, red eyes, and is dressed in a gray jacket, a pink skirt, and a white shirt. The background is a light beige color.

"The report claims research commissioned by the special envoy “highlights a stark divide between Australians under 35 and those over 35” on attitudes toward the Jewish community and “the existence of the state of Israel”, claiming younger Australians were more likely to hold antisemitic views."
Opposing Zionism and/or Israel does not equal antisemitism.

Volume Controller Rejects Skeumorphism, Embraces the Physical


The volume slider on our virtual desktops is a skeuomorphic callback to the volume sliders on professional audio equipment on actual, physical desktops. [Maker Vibe] decided that this skeuomorphism was so last century, and made himself a physical audio control box for his PC.

Since he has three audio outputs he needs to consider, the peripheral he creates could conceivably be called a fader. It certainly has that look, anyway: each output is controlled by a volume slider — connected to a linear potentiometer — and a mute button. Seeing a linear potentiometer used for volume control threw us for a second, until we remembered this was for the computer’s volume control, not an actual volume control circuit. The computer’s volume slider already does the logarithmic conversion. A Seeed Studio Xiao ESP32S3 lives at the heart of this thing, emulating a Bluetooth gamepad using a library by LemmingDev. A trio of LEDs round out the electronics to provide an indicator for which audio channels are muted or active.

Those Bluetooth signals are interpreted by a Python script feeding a software called Voicmeeter Banana, because [Maker Vibe] uses Windows, and Redmond’s finest operating system doesn’t expose audio controls in an easily-accessible way. Voicmeeter Banana (and its attendant Python script) takes care of telling Windows what to do.

The whole setup lives on [Maker Vibe]’s desk in a handsome 3D printed box. He used a Circuit vinyl cutter to cut out masks so he could airbrush different colours onto the print after sanding down the layer lines. That’s another one for the archive of how to make front panels.

If volume sliders aren’t doing it for you, perhaps you’d prefer tocontrol your audio with a conductor’s baton.
