If you’ve fallen far enough down the Wordle rabbit hole you may have heard of Quordle, a version of Wordle where you solve four words at once. If you’re looking for more of a challenge, Britannica has you covered with Octordle, where you solve eight words at once. And of course any Wordler worth their salt should be able to handle sixteen words, like in Sedecordle.

A Crypto Micronation Is Making Friends at the White House

wired.com Joel Khalili 2025-11-01 00:00:00

When I visited the Free Republic of Liberland in April 2023, on its eighth anniversary, there was little to indicate that the tiny proto-nation—which had no permanent residents, barely any buildings, and a tendency to flood—was on track to fulfill its goal of becoming “the freest country on the planet.” But these days, Liberland has friends in high places. Liberland was founded in 2015 by Vít Jedlička, a euro-skeptic politician from Czechia who had come to view European democracies as blighted

Acronis True Image costs performance when not used

Over two years ago I installed Acronis True Image for Crucial in order to migrate my data to a new SSD I had just purchased. It worked. I then left True Image installed “just in case”, and what harm could that possibly cause. Well, funny you should ask.

Candle Flame Oscillations as a Clock

Todays candles have been optimized for millenia not to flicker. But it turns out when we bundle three of them together, we can undo all of these optimizations and the resulting triplet will start to naturally oscillate. A fascinating fact is that the oscillation frequency is rather stable at ~9.9Hz as it mainly depends on gravity and diameter of the flame. We use a rather unusual approach based on a wire suspended in the flame, that can sense capacitance changes caused by the ionized gases in t
