AI Thread Summary
Microsoft Defender SmartScreen is integrated primarily with Microsoft browsers, such as Edge, and does not function in the same way with other browsers like Firefox or Chrome. Users cannot directly configure SmartScreen to trust specific websites, as it operates based on a set of predefined criteria and reputation scores. While some users express a desire to maintain SmartScreen's functionality without disabling it entirely, the ability to customize trusted sites is not supported.

After playing around a bit with making star maps, I found another video which introduced me to another trick that can be done using geometry nodes. This one involves fluids. For background, Blender has a fluid physics simulator, which, as the name suggests simulates the behavior of fluids. What this person did was to use geometry nodes to convert the fluid into a point cloud. Then he added a turbulence force field to "stir it around". He was then able to extract the velocity information...
I have been idly browsing what Apple have to offer with their new iPhone17. There is mention of 'Vapour cooling' to deal with the heat generated. Would that be the same sort of idea that was used in 'Heat Pipes' where water evaporated at the processor end and liquid water was returned from the cool end and back along a wick. At the extreme high power end, Vapour Phase Cooling has been used in multi-kW RF transmitters where (pure) water was pumped to the Anode / or alternative Collector and...
