The chemical secrets that help keep honey fresh for so long

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-08-05 23:04:41

But honey is an unusual case, and here is why. It's made by honeybees from flower nectar, and starts out as a warmish, watery, sugary fluid, the kind of thing that seems like it would be the purest bacteria bait. The bees concentrate the nectar on the way to the hive, removing some of the water, use enzymes to raise the acid content in the fluid discouraging some forms of microorganisms from growing, and break down the sugars into simpler ones, then decant the stuff into honeycomb chambers.

Remedy is trying to fix FBC: Firebreak in response to middling reviews and player feedback

engadget.com Unknown 2025-09-03 00:38:05

Remedy has shared its plans to improve FBC: Firebreak, the new multiplayer Control spinoff, following a string of less-than-stellar reviews that criticized the game's rough early hours. FBC: Firebreak was announced in October 2024 as the first online multiplayer game from Remedy, and another pitstop on the way to an eventual Control 2. The full patch notes for Remedy's first update are available to view on Steam, but in brief, the biggest change the developer is making is to how missions are un

June’s Game Pass additions include Remedy co-op shooter FBC: Firebreak

engadget.com Unknown 2025-09-10 16:31:31

Microsoft’s Game Pass is having a very impressive 2025 where the quality and cadence of releases is concerned, and things are showing no signs of slowing down as we settle into the summer months. Highlights of the June lineup include co-op FPS FBC: Firebreak, which joins the service today, Sloclap’s highly-anticipated soccer game, Rematch, and a trio of Warcraft remasters. Let’s start with probably the most significant addition. Back in May, Engadget’s Jessica Conditt got to play Remedy’s FBC:

FBC: Firebreak: 6 Fun Nods to Control

cnet.com See Full Bio 2025-09-11 16:00:00

FBC: Firebreak is studio Remedy Entertainment's first multiplayer romp. As a Left 4 Dead-esque objective-based horde shooter taking place in the Oldest House (the headquarters for the Federal Bureau of Control), the game is heavy on action and light on story. That doesn't mean that the game is completely divorced from the shared Remedyverse that bridges the events of Control and the Alan Wake series. Firebreak takes place six years after the events of Control, and dimension-hopping Hiss invader

I Played FBC: Firebreak and It's No Fun Going on the Game's Dark Missions Alone

I'm hours into my second night of matches before FBC: Firebreak starts to make sense. I've got two other players in my squad, each with a different kit of equipment and weapons, as we fight off hordes of enemies while doing odd jobs around our haunted office building. After several missions, we've finally learned the game's atypical approach to team combat and how to back each other up. But one thing is clear: If you don't want to cooperate, this game isn't for you. The newest game from Alan Wa

Reinventing circuit breakers with supercritical CO2

news.ycombinator.com Emily Waltz 2025-09-13 18:01:38

Researchers this month will begin testing a high-voltage circuit breaker that can quench an arc and clear a fault with supercritical carbon dioxide fluid. The first-of-its-kind device could replace conventional high-voltage breakers, which use the potent greenhouse gas sulfur hexafluoride, or SF 6. Such equipment is scattered widely throughout power grids as a way to stop the flow of electrical current in an emergency. “SF 6 is a fantastic insulator, but it’s very bad for the environment—probab

We found a germ that 'feeds' on hospital plastic – new study

news.ycombinator.com Ronan Mccarthy 2025-09-14 04:01:00

Plastic pollution is one of the defining environmental challenges of our time – and some of nature’s tiniest organisms may offer a surprising way out. In recent years, microbiologists have discovered bacteria capable of breaking down various types of plastic, hinting at a more sustainable path forward. These “plastic-eating” microbes could one day help shrink the mountains of waste clogging landfills and oceans. But they are not always a perfect fix. In the wrong environment, they could cause
