Games journalist and PC Gamer editor Jody Macgregor joins Liz and Ben to take control of an oddly Pythonesque Rincewind and discuss the 1995 graphic adventure game Discworld from Teeny Weeny Games and Perfect 10 Productions. A nefarious secret society has summoned a dragon in Ankh-Morpork! It's a suspiciously familiar plot, and of course the only one who can save the city is...Rincewind? This wizard might not know any spells, but he's decidedly snarky and cunning - and accompanied by an inventory window on legs. Together, they'll use petty theft, time travel and logic that would put Rube Goldberg to shame to rid the city of this scaly threat forever...twice! Terry Pratchett was famously an early adopter of computers, and a devoted video game player, so its no surprise that there were other Discworld videogames before...er...Discworld. But this 1995 point-and-click graphic adventure game is by far the most well known and beloved of the lot - despite also being infamous for its difficulty, in a genre known for obscure puzzles with illogical solutions! The player controls a version of Rincewind voiced by Eric Idle, who must travel back and forth all over Ankh-Morpork (and to the edge of the Disc) to collect a variety of random objects to save the city. The plot is loosely based on Guards! Guards!, with some flavour from Moving Pictures and a cast drawn from the early wizards novels. It was followed by two more games from the same team: Discworld II: Missing, Presumed...?!, and Discworld Noir, each with quite different visual styles, and the latter with a brand new protagonist. Sadly, all three are “abandonware” - not only unavailable, but languishing in copyright limbo, with no-one sure enough who currently has the rights to get them published again. Have you had a chance to play Discworld? What do you think of this version of Rincewind, Ankh-Morpork and the Disc? Would you like to hear us do episodes about the two other adventure games?

Computers can see and hear, but they've never been able to smell—until now. In this episode, we sit down with Alex Wiltschko, Founder & CEO of Osmo, to explore how his company is using AI to digitize scent. Alex walks us through how they "teleported" the smell of a fresh plum across their lab, created the world's first AI-designed fragrance molecules, and built Osmo Studio—a platform that lets anyone design custom fragrances in one week instead of two years. We discuss the read/map/write framework for digitizing smell, why scent is tied directly to memory and emotion, and how this technology could eventually detect diseases like cancer and Parkinson's earlier than any current diagnostic. Plus: what does the Museum of Pop Culture smell like, and can AI really create a fragrance from a Bon Iver song?Links: Osmo: https://www.osmo.aiScent Teleportation Update: https://www.osmo.ai/blog/update-scent-teleportation-we-did-itOsmo Studio: https://osmostudios.ai/ Subscribe to The Neuron newsletter: https://theneuron.aiCheck out the sponsor of this video, Flora: https://dub.florafauna.ai/neuronSubscribe to The Neuron newsletter: https://theneuron.aiHosted by: Corey Noles and Grant HarveyGuest: Alex Wiltschko (Founder & CEO, Osmo)Published by: Manique SantosEdited by: Kush Felisilda
Anfang der 1980er steckten Computer und Gaming noch in den Kinderschuhen. Trotzdem wagte sich ausgerechnet Disney mit Regisseur Steven Lisberger in dem Raum zwischen Transistor und Logikgatter. Ein Film, der 2025 erstmals so neonhaft erstrahlt, wie er es womöglich schon 1982 sollte.

"At age 75, we fall off a cliff," Dr. Peter Attia warned on 60 Minutes last week—and his solution is training like a professional athlete for your "Centenarian Decathlon," the 10 things you want to do at age 100. But his approach calls for full-body MRIs, experimental drugs, and hours of daily training that most midlife women juggling full lives often can't swing.

Picture a potential future armed conflict: missiles and drones crowding the skies, uncrewed vehicles rolling across borders, and governments scrambling to coordinate their defences. Their conclusion: Every citizen is needed. Some collect and relay information about the approaching enemy into an artificial intelligence (AI) platform that supports military decision-making. Reservists join the ranks of the armed forces. Computer experts choose to contribute by conducting cyber operations aimed at disrupting military operations, sowing chaos among the civilian population, and harming the enemy's economy. As the militaries on both sides rely heavily on digital communication, connectivity, and AI, the armed forces call on tech companies to provide cybersecurity services, computing power and digital communication networks. In this post, Tilman Rodenhäuser, Samit D'Cunha, and Laurent Gisel from the ICRC, Anna Rosalie Greipl from the Academy, and Professor Marco Roscini from the University of Westminster (and former Swiss IHL Chair at the Geneva Academy) present five key risks for civilians, along with the obligations of both civilians and states, related to the involvement of civilians in information and communication technology (ICT) activities in armed conflict.

PITAGORA, il nuovo supercomputer del CINECA inaugurato oggi a Casalecchio di Reno (BO), è un mostro da non meno di 50.000 microprocessori capace di eseguire 42 milioni di miliardi di operazioni al secondo. PITAGORA sarà utilizzato per simulare sia i materiali che comporranno i reattori a fusione, sia il plasma rovente contenuto in essi; la sua architettura è concepita per eseguire simulazioni fisiche, in cui ogni microprocessore è responsabile di riprodurre ciò che accade in un dato volume di spazio. Una caratteristica innovativa di PITAGORA è che a questo nucleo di calcolo specializzato nelle simulazioni fisiche se ne aggiunge uno specializzato nell'Intelligenza Artificiale: un computer dalla "doppia personalità", che permetterà di dare forma ai gemelli digitali dei fenomeni sotto indagine e aiuterà i ricercatori condurre le simulazioni nel modo più efficiente possibile. Ne parliamo con Mirko Cestari - Cineca, Responsabile Tecnologie e Architetture Sistemi HPC (High Performance Computing).

TCW Podcast Episode 245 - The History of Commodore Pt 2 Commodore's shift from calculators to computers began with the PET, which found success in Europe as a business machine. After seeing the ZX80 in Britain, Jack Tramiel pushed for an affordable home computer, leading to the VIC-20. Guided by marketing manager Michael S. Tomczyk, Commodore promoted the VIC-20 as “the friendly computer” with William Shatner as spokesman. It first launched in Japan before reaching the United States and Europe, becoming a hit worldwide. Building on that success, Commodore released the C64, featuring the powerful SID sound chip and far more memory than its competitors. Marketed again under Tomczyk's direction at a price under six hundred dollars, the C64 became one of the best-selling computers of all time, driving Commodore's revenue past a billion dollars and securing its place in computing history.

What are you thoughts from todays episode?
There's an established playbook for getting one's affairs in order before death—create a will, name legal guardians, and so on. But there's also a newer consideration: what will happen to our digital presences, like social media accounts, files, photos, videos, and more. So how do we manage them, and make sure we're not turned into AI chatbots without permission? (It does happen.) Information scientist Jed Brubaker studies digital afterlives, and joins Host Flora Lichtman to discuss how we can manage our digital legacies. Guest: Jed Brubaker is an information scientist and head of the Digital Legacy Clinic at the University of Colorado, Boulder.Transcripts for each episode are available within 1-3 days at sciencefriday.com.

In this episode, Patrick McKenzie reads his essay about the financial infrastructure that makes buying windows painless. When a window installer can originate, underwrite, and fund a $25,000 loan in 15 minutes before leaving your house, it's because four parties—window companies, facilitating platforms, specialized banks, and capital providers—have built a system that actually works. Patrick explains how modern consumer lending learned from 2008 to create better underwriting, clearer compliance, and properly distributed risk, all in service of enabling commerce in the real economy.–Full transcript available here: www.complexsystemspodcast.com/home-improvement-lending/–Sponsor: MercuryThis episode is brought to you by Mercury, the fintech trusted by 200K+ companies — from first milestones to running complex systems.

Floppy Days 156 - Interview with Paul Schindler, Computer Chronicles Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/FloppyDays Sponsors: 8-Bit Classics Arcade Shopper and https://thekeep.net FutureVision Research Tuc's Workbench Hello, and welcome to episode 156 of the Floppy Days Podcast for October, 2025. I'm Randy Kindig, your host for this "retro"spective covering vintage computers of the late 70's through the 80's and the people who were on the forefront of that incredible revolution. This month, I'm bringing you another interview episode with a tech media personality that was involved with the Computer Chronicles TV show (among many other things): Mr. Paul Schindler. Paul has a big personality and has a lot of great stories about Computer Chronicles and about the tech industry in general in those days. I really enjoyed talking with Paul and he made me laugh a lot! As you know, if you're a regular listener, I was able to interview Stewart Cheifet some ago about Computer Chronicles. Computer Chronicles was a great way to get information about computers in those early days and I've always wanted to do some follow-up. Thanks to S.M. Oliva, who is mentioned in the resulting interview, and who runs a blog called "Computer Chronicles Revisited", I was able to get in contact with Paul. Next up for Floppy Days will be a series of podcasts on the KayPro line of computers, for which I was able to line up an interview with a key figure from that company and was also able to find someone who knows a lot about the computer line to help me discuss the technical topics. Stay tuned for that series. As usual, I will begin this podcast going through new acquisitions and what I've been up to, upcoming vintage computer shows and more.

Movement is medicine for all of us, but its power is crystalized by its impact on the progression of the neurodegenerative Parkinson's Disease. In this conversation, fitness instructor Ashlee Grieb and Kathleen Featherston—who lives with Parkinson's—reveal how consistent group exercise doesn't just build physical strength, it actively slows disease progression, supports brain health, and creates life-sustaining community connections. You'll discover why showing up matters more than perfection, how early Parkinson's symptoms often hide for years, and why moving your body is one of the most powerful tools for fighting chronic illness. Their message is clear: the gym isn't just about getting fit—it's about fighting back, finding joy, and building relationships that heal. LET'S TALK THE WALK!

This week, Jake and Travis sit down with journalist Will Sommer to unpack his investigation into the New Age wellness empire selling stacks of glowing TV monitors as a cure‑all. Jason Shurka, the brains behind the multi-million dollar operation, used the funds to bankroll a brand new streaming platform, Unifyd TV, whose offerings include documentaries made by QAnon promoters. According to the promoters of this quack cure, their work is approved by a secret society of powerful entities who are dedicated to elevating humankind called “The Light Systems” cabal or “TLS.” One member of The Light Systems, a figure called “Ray,” is regularly filmed while wearing a face-concealing hoodie and gloves in order to preserve his anonymity in interviews with Shurka available on Unifyd TV.
