I adore how seriously we took making original art for our little computer magazines in the 1980s
Cover of ANALOG Computing magazine, issue No. 13 (September/October), priced at $2.50. The tagline reads, “The Magazine for Atari Computer Owners.” The artwork depicts an Atari 1400 XL computer keyboard integrated into an elaborate, circuit-like sci-fi panel with intricate wires, pipes, and glowing components. A large golden scarab beetle design with wings is featured above the keyboard, blending Egyptian symbolism with futuristic technology. In the bottom right corner, article highlights are listed: “ROUNDUP, BOOT CAMP, SPACE ASSAULT, FINE SCROLLING, BASIC UTILITIES COMPARED.”A scan of the About the Cover section from ANALOG Computing magazine. The text explains that for this issue, the editors asked artist Michael D. Law to create the cover instead of using photography. Law, described as a “mobile” artist, had experience in science fiction and fantasy art, along with other styles. The cover was inspired by the surreal, biomechanical work of Swiss artist H.R. Giger, best known for his designs featured in Ridley Scott’s film Alien. The editors remark that the Atari logo may never again appear in such an imaginative setting and encourage readers to continue following future covers.

Amused to be cited in this scientific article that proves - through recourse to various physical principles of fluid dynamics - that the Japanese plan in Godzilla Minus One would not, actually, kill Godzilla: www.mdpi.com/2571-8800/8/... 1/5
Poster for the article: Godzilla in the sea with tanks of freon attached. 

Text: Cinema Meets Science: A plan to neutalize [sic] Godzilla through bouyancy reduction, deep-sea pressure, and rapid decompression.

An interdisciplinary critique highlighting the intersection of film and science.The title page of "Bursting the Bubble: The Fluids Mechanics That Prove Godzilla Would Survive the Plan" by Nicolas Dietrich.Abstract of "Bursting the Bubble: The Fluids Mechanics That Prove Godzilla Would Survive the Plan", by Nicolas Dietrich.

Abstract: Cinematic and pop culture narratives offer powerful tools for engaging with science by contextualizing complex principles within familiar, imaginative stories. This paper investigates the scientific feasibility of a plan depicted in Godzilla Minus One to neutralize the iconic kaiju through buoyancy reduction, exposure to deep-sea pressure, and rapid decompression. Employing principles from fluid mechanics, thermodynamics, and biomechanics, the study critically examines the use of freon bubbles and additional weight to counteract buoyant forces, the effects of 1500-m oceanic pressure on Godzilla’s
physiology, and the potential for barotrauma during rapid ascent. While theoretically plausible, the proposed strategies face insurmountable challenges, including logistical impracticality and Godzilla’s presumed biological adaptations. This interdisciplinary critique highlights the intersection of film and science, encouraging critical analysis of
cinematic representations and fostering a deeper appreciation for the scientific principles they attempt to portray.Figure 1 from the article: 3 basic illustrations showing Godzilla sinking. 
Text: Figure 1. Principle of the attack presented in the movie: a three-Step Strategy.

This figure illustrates the three-step plan proposed to defeat Godzilla using freon tanks, deep-sea pressure, and rapid decompression:

Step 1: Sinking with Freon Tanks attached to Godzilla’s body. The plan involves using bubble generated by the gas to increase Godzilla’s effective density, causing him to sink below the ocean surface. The downward arrow indicates the intended sinking motion as buoyancy is overcome by the added weight. 

Step 2: Exposing to Deep-Sea Pressure at 1500 m. The second panel depicts Godzilla fully submerged at a depth of 1500 m. At this depth, the immense oceanic pressure is expected to exert extreme force on his body, potentially causing structural damage or collapse.

Step 3: Inducing Rapid Decompression During Ascent. In the third panel, Godzilla is shown ascending rapidly toward the surface. This stage of the plan aims to cause barotrauma through rapid 
ecompression, which would expand any gases within his body,
potentially resulting in fatal damage.

the greatest boon of the slow death of WOTC/hasbro from their complete mishandling of d&d 5.5e is that MAYBE one day we will be free from the notion that house rules are a good thing. the greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing players that it's actually *good* that the system is broken

Panel 1: A jester is pointing ahead of him along a woodland path, where two armed figures stand. He says "Bandits up ahead!"

Panel 2: The jester takes out a lute and, smiling, says "I'll distract them with a song" to somebody to his right.

Panel 3: The person to his right is a warrior, looking to the left back at the jester, throwing a demonstrative punch, and saying "and I'LL sneak up and knock them out!" He is also smiling. The vibes are good and they're ready to work as a team.

Panel 4: The warrior now shifts his gaze to his right and asks "What are YOU gonna do, wizard??"

Panel 5: There is a wizard covered in blood, and viscera, with parts of his cloak charred and a small fire still burning on one part. He says "I already did it!"

Resistentialism is a jocular theory to describe "seemingly spiteful behavior manifested by inanimate objects",[1] where objects that cause problems (like lost keys, printers, or a runaway bouncy ball) are said to exhibit a high degree of malice toward humans.

We're stoked to introduce the 'No Gen AI' seal for indie games! Indie devs can use it on their game's store page to assure potential players that their game was made without the use of Generative AI. You can grab it from the Polygon Treehouse website:- www.polygon-treehouse.com/no-gen-ai-seal
A graphical asset in the shape of a cog. It contains the following text 'This developer assures that NO GEN AI' was used in this indie game
