Among them were four AI models launched by the publisher to find out who would be the best. Virtual Regatta Offshore is a sailing simulation game that reproduces real weather. Players have to make many decisions to complete the races as quickly as possi

One space station company sues another for copying its work - Ars Technica
NASA’s competition for the development of private space stations that will take flight in the 2030s is already nearing crunch time. But a recently unsealed lawsuit may spice things up even further. The lawsuit involves two of the most prominent companies in this competition, Houston-based Axiom Space and Long Beach, California-based Vast Space. And it is surfacing as final proposals for private space stations are due from companies to the US space agency a

In ancient Egypt, cats were presented to the gods as offerings. Recent research published in the archaeological journal “Journal of Archaeological Science” suggests that even these cats, which became offerings to the gods, were not necessarily well cared for.
