Gold mining introduces an overlooked threat to wild caimans
Mercury pollution from artisanal gold mining in tropical regions is finding its way into wildlife. A team from the University of Vienna and the Veterinary University of Vienna shows that mercury exposure impairs the glucocorticoid response that helps animals cope with acute stress. This weakened stress response could reduce the caimans' chances of survival and reproduction. The findings, recently published in the journal Communications Biology, point to a previously overlooked endocrine threat to crocodylians.

Northern permafrost greening masks declining plant resilience, study finds
An international study jointly led by researchers from the Department of Geography and the Institute for Climate and Carbon Neutrality at the Faculty of Social Sciences, The University of Hong Kong (HKU), has revealed that vegetation resilience across Northern Hemisphere permafrost regions underwent a widespread reversal around 2008, declining broadly despite continued greening.

Evolution has repeatedly turned hawkmoth genitals into defensive tools
The genital structures of male hawkmoths are lifesavers. By rubbing specialized scales on their genitals against parts of their abdomen, the nocturnal insects emit ultrasonic sounds that can potentially scramble the acoustic signals that bats use to hunt.

New data infrastructure service strengthens interdisciplinary research
The "Geolinking Service SoRa" research data infrastructure helps to close a gap in the German research landscape. Many questions—such as those regarding social inequality or environmental justice—can only be answered through interdisciplinary analyses, such as linking social science and spatial science data: Does the proportion of green space in a residential neighborhood affect health and well-being? Are people who live in single-family homes happier than residents of densely built-up urban neighborhoods? How does transportation infrastructure—such as access to buses and trains—influence peop

Mitigating the ecological consequences of light pollution
Light pollution is one of the fastest-growing and least-regulated environmental changes worldwide. It disrupts biological processes at all levels—from genes to entire ecosystems—and contributes significantly to global biodiversity loss. A recent review article, in which the Leibniz Institute of Freshwater Ecology and Inland Fisheries (IGB) participated, addresses the ecological consequences of artificial nighttime lighting. Based on a comprehensive assessment of the impacts on organisms on land and in water, the authors identify priorities for research and management. The Review Article was pu

Election 2026
It’s a relief that Trump received a decisive repudiation, and that it manifested quickly and decisively enough that he can’t productively contest it. Democrats will now control both the house and senate with comfortable margins. In addition, they made progress down ballot, winning governor and state legislatures that could have major implications in the years … Continue reading Election 2026 →

珍惜《影之刃零》这么「慷慨」的游戏吧
「灭烛见真火，忘剑得神兵」 2025年初，在灵游坊的办公室里，我和同事游玩了一段《影之刃零》的试玩切片。拿着灵蛇软剑和白蟒赤练两把异形武器，我们对战了大师兄与他的七星剑阵。那场试玩难度颇高，在场只有寥寥几位同行最终通关。几天之后，这段内容作为灵游坊的蛇年贺岁实机演示正式发布，成为了《影之刃零》第一个播放量破千万的视频。我还记得那天的试玩结束后，制作人S（梁其伟），意犹未尽地又给我们重新播放了一遍片子，对呈现给我们的一切，都表现出了乐观与自豪。在他的描述中，正式版游戏里会有三十多把主副武器，还有“至少20个小时”的主线流程。真的能做出三十多把差异如此巨大的武器吗？因为当时只玩到了单纯的Boss Rush，我其实很难对整个动作系统下判断，内心保留了一些保守和疑虑。时隔近两年，一切都变得不一样了。恐怕当初我再怎么发挥想象力，S给出再多的言语描述，我也无法想象最终端上桌的《影之刃零》，会是这样一款远远超过当时预期的游戏。这大概也是我从业以来，见过风评反转最快的国产游戏。此前的媒体前瞻环节，试玩工作全由我的同事駄目糕负责。出于严格的保密原则，直到发售前夕，我实际上也无从了解具体的游戏内容，心里多少还是有一些忐忑的——因为试玩第一天，她还在跟我吐槽这里那里的问题，但仅仅一天时间过去后，我再问她游戏如何，她的反馈已经变成了完全的溢美之词。媒体评测经常会陷入这种特殊状况。在封闭的高

英国百万富翁最新理财教学：买《GTA6》能节省5000美元
算是把数学玩明白了。买游戏前先掂量掂量价格，估算一下游戏乐趣能不能抵上金钱开销，这是玩家进行消费时再常见不过的心理过程。尤其对《GTA6》这样“顶格售价”（标准版 79.99 美元、终极版 99.99 美元）的大作而言。大家往往在花钱之前就做好了心理预期：等了这么久，买一份应该的；内容这么多，肯定能玩很久。然而，英国企业家、投资人、理财内容创作者Mark Tilbury在其最近发布的视频中给出了一个新的观点：只要每天晚上玩4小时，持续50晚，购买《GTA6》就能帮你省下5000美元。这笔帐不涉及任何复杂的数学计算。拿终极版99.99美元来举例，Tilbury假设玩家花费80小时通关，则每小时娱乐成本约为1.25美元；如果再把支线任务和自由探索算进去，玩到200小时，那每小时便只要约0.5美元。这200个小时，按每晚4小时分摊，就是50个晚上。如果这些晚上你原本要出门吃饭、喝酒、找乐子，每晚花100美元，50晚就要花掉5000美元。但你换成在家打游戏，这笔开销就躲过去了。换句话说，现实中的都市压榨你的钱包，游戏中的都市保卫你的钱包，《GTA6》善莫大焉。先别嘲笑老人家的数学逻辑（他甚至没有扣掉100美元的游戏成本），也别质疑他是不是收了R星的好处，因为以他的身份，确实有底气发表这么一番言论。 Tilbury1967年出生于英国坎特伯雷，16岁辍学，早年做过木制垃圾桶，后

首曝八年后，“老滚6”正式定名《上古卷轴6：哨兵》
并发布了内容量堪比首曝的预告片。大约一小时前，贝塞斯达发布了工作室40周年纪念视频。在视频结尾，陶德·霍华德亲自揭晓了《上古卷轴6》的副标题，还带来了一支新“预告片”。这部在2018年首次亮相的《上古卷轴》系列新作，终于和其它系列作品一样拥有了完整标题：《The Elder Scrolls VI: Sentinel》，暂译为《上古卷轴6：哨兵》。距离《上古卷轴6》首曝已经过去八年多，而《上古卷轴5：天际》发售也即将满十五年。相比当年首曝时的纯PPT画面，这次的预告片相对来说展示了更多的内容（主要是沙粒、卷轴和副标题），除此以外，贝塞斯达仍未公布其它任何有效信息。不过，根据这个新名字，我们至少可以猜测，下一段冒险将前往红卫人的故乡——落锤省。 “Sentinel”，也就是哨兵城，是系列世界观中落锤省的首府。《上古卷轴OL》中的哨兵城这也与预告中的沙漠画面相互印证，让多年来围绕《上古卷轴6》故事舞台的猜测，终于有了明确的答案。当然，游戏究竟会覆盖多大区域，仅凭一个名字还无法确定。毕竟，与哨兵城隔海相望、在地理文化上紧密相连的的高岩省也很可能作为重要游戏区域加入。而我们还能获取的信息，就只有预告末尾，贝塞斯达所展示的纯文字了： “卷轴只向我显露了一线微光，仿佛眼前的帷幕被稍稍掀起。一个失落的未来。一场被逆转的胜利。时间之沙，被命运打散。” ——雅扎尔，侍奉落锤至高女王伊

腾讯投资5亿后，《奇异人生》开发商是如何走到破产边缘的？
10月19日，巴黎经济活动法院批准了《奇异人生》开发商DON'T NOD 开启为期六个月的“司法保护程序”。消息传出后，这家法国游戏公司的股价跌破0.15欧元，总市值缩水至不足190万欧元——而在2018年上市时，它的发行价是19.76欧元。虽然法国法律中的“司法保护程序”还不等同于破产清算，公司还有喘息和重组的时间。但在外界看来，这家曾经享誉全球的叙事游戏工作室，已经走到了末路。按照官方公告的说法，如果找不到新的外部融资，公司将在明年1月底之后存在重大不确定性。这并不是 DON'T NOD 第一次经历生死劫。早在2014年，由于处女作《勿忘我》商业表现不佳，公司就曾进入过司法重整。当时，是横空出世的《奇异人生》把他们从泥潭里拉了出来。然而十几年过去，当同样的剧本再次上演时，他们手里却再也没有另一部《奇异人生》了。一家做出过现象级爆款、背后有巨头资本加持、且这两年仍在稳定产出“80分口碑之作”的公司，是如何一步步把自己逼入绝境的？《奇异人生》初代中的 Max 与 Chloe 复盘DON'T NOD这些年的遭遇，可以看到一个非常典型的缩影。从爆火之后的盲目扩张，到创作能力的全面退化，一切都是定数。 1 DON'T NOD这个公司名字，直译过来是”不点头“，即”拒绝顺从“，而且从正序还是倒序拼写，都是完全对称的。这个文字游戏来自公司五位创始人之一的Alain Damasio
