Adult Swim has announced the Season 3 premiere date for Genndy Tartakovsky’s (Dexter’s Laboratory, Samurai Jack) Primal, from Cartoon Network Studios. The five-time Emmy-winning series that follows a caveman at the dawn of evolution returns for its third season Sunday, Jan. 11 at 11:30 PM on Adult Swim, next day on HBO Max. You can see some first-look photos of the new season below,

The first two seasons followed Spear as he formed an unlikely bond with an almost extinct dinosaur and later made the ultimate sacrifice after a final standoff turned fatal. The third season opens with a shocking twist that resurrects Spear in a new form—stripped of memory and humanity—and forces him to roam a brutal, untamed world as a shadow of his former self. As Spear battles savage landscapes and deadly foes, faint echoes of his past begin to stir, leading him toward an emotional and explosive reunion that will test the limits of survival.

 

High-energy cosmic radiation damages cells and DNA, causing cancer, and secondary neutrons—generated especially from the planetary surfaces—can be up to 20 times more harmful than other radiations. Aluminum, the most widely used shielding material, has the drawback of generating additional secondary neutrons when below a certain thickness.

Consequently, boron nitride nanotubes (BNNTs), which are lightweight, strong, and possess excellent neutron shielding capabilities, are emerging as a promising alternative

 

A severed mosquito proboscis can be turned into an extremely fine nozzle for 3D printing, and this could help create replacement tissues and organs for transplants.

Changhong Cao at McGill University in Montreal, Canada, and his colleagues developed the technique, which they call 3D necroprinting, because they were unable to find nozzles thin enough for their work on manufacturing very fine structures. The narrowest commercially available nozzle they could find had an interior bore of 35 micrometres and also came with a hefty £60 ($80) price tag.

 

I really think the world needs more cyberdecks. They're cool portable computers, usually powered by slim yet capable hardware, packaged inside a case that makes you feel like some sort of hacker as you use it.

Well, if hacking was actually a thing in the 80s, I'd imagine the computers they'd use would look as slick as the Typeframe PX-88. It has an amazing retro look that defined an entire era of information technology, and the cherry on top is that you can absolutely build one from the ground up.

 

It’s been about a month or so since AYN Thor pre-orders began arriving on doorsteps. Since then, the community has found a bunch of annoyances and various software features that were simply broken. Announced earlier tonight, an OTA update is rolling out that is comprised of a total of 11 different fixes.

 

A new technique uses "molecular antennas" to funnel electrical energy into insulating nanoparticles, creating a new class of ultra-pure near-infrared LEDs for medical diagnostics, optical communications, and sensing.

Researchers at the Cavendish Laboratory, University of Cambridge have developed a new method to electrically power insulating nanoparticles, a feat previously thought impossible under normal conditions. By attaching organic molecules that act as tiny antennas, they have created the first-ever light-emitting diodes (LEDs) from these materials

 

Biqu is slowly becoming my personal highlight at Formnext. Year on year, you find useful, unexpected, and sometimes funny products that show the brains behind the brand not only have a sense of humour, but want to inject that into your 3D printing. This year has been no different.

In the trade halls of Frankfurt, between the deployable printers redefining the battlefield, industrial debuts, no-waste toolchangers and politics, Biqu is colorfully forcing users’ freedom of choice on Bambu Lab’s famously closed ecosystem with an upcoming kit for older Bambu Lab P-series machines called Panda Cyborg.

 

Max Walker-Silverman’s new film, “Rebuilding,” is set in the San Luis Valley. It was also shot in the San Luis Valley.

That might not sound like a big deal, but when New Mexico is offering up to 40 percent in refundable tax credits, it’s hard to justify shooting something in Southern Colorado that could just as easily be shot south of the state line.

“I'm so on the fringes of ‘the biz,’ if I can even call it that,” 32-year-old director Walker-Silverman joked, “but I think as much as possible, movies should be shot where they take place. And this movie took place in Colorado, and I'm really grateful to work with producers and financiers who were willing to support that.”

 

Moss spores have survived a prolonged trip to space, scientists reveal. The spores spent nine months on the outside of the International Space Station (ISS) before returning to our planet, and over 80% of the spores were still able to reproduce when they arrived back on Earth.

The discovery improves our understanding of how plant species survive in extreme conditions, the researchers wrote in their findings, published Thursday (Nov. 20) in the journal iScience.

 

In a discovery shaped by more than a decade of steady, incremental effort rather than a dramatic breakthrough, scientists from the National University of Singapore (NUS) and their collaborators demonstrated that great ideas flourish when paired with patience.

Flashback to 2011: a small group of young researchers gathered around an aging optical bench at the NUS Department of Chemistry, watching a faint, flickering glow on a screen. Their goal seemed deceptively simple: make an insulating crystal emit light when electricity flowed through it. The challenge, however, was nearly impossible.
