This morning I finished Runescape: Dragonwilds as I bet Velgar the dragon.

The game was super fun, and ran really well, especially for Early Access. I'm really hoping they continue to add content to it. It really played and felt a lot like Enshrouded, which I absolutely loved and felt it was my game of the year last year for 2024.

The final boss fight was a bit disappointing however. It was just too simple, as I beat him on the first try without even coming close to dying.

Definitely looking forward to the future of the game though.

The image features a character in a fantasy setting, standing in a dynamic pose with a sword in hand, facing a large dragon with its wings spread wide. The character is dressed in medieval-style armor, with a helmet, and is holding a glowing green object in one hand. The background shows a dramatic scene with a large stone archway, through which the dragon is visible, set against a backdrop of a fiery sky and distant ruins. The ground is a cobblestone path, and the overall color palette includes warm tones of orange and yellow, creating a sense of adventure and danger. The text "RUNESCAPE DRAGONWILDS" is prominently displayed in the upper left corner, indicating the title of the game or content.

Anyone else playing the new Runescape: Dragonwilds game as of yet?

I just started it this morning and it's amazingly awesome. Very similar to Enshrouded in a lot of ways, which happened to be my 2024 game of the year!

I'm not very far into this one yet, but really enjoying it so far.

The image depicts a dramatic scene from the game "RuneScape: Dragonwilds." In the foreground, a lone figure stands facing a large dragon. The figure is dressed in dark armor and a cape, holding a sword, and appears to be in a defensive stance. The dragon, with its wings spread wide, has a menacing expression and is positioned in the center of the image, dominating the scene. The background features a night sky with a crescent moon and stars, adding to the atmosphere. The landscape is rugged and mountainous, with a glowing lava pool visible at the dragon's feet. The title "RuneScape Dragonwilds" is prominently displayed at the top of the image in a stylized font.

#UK / Call to the President of the Royal Society to drop Musk's FRS

The letter criticizes Elon Musk's retention of this fellowship despite actions seen as violating the Royal Society's Code of Conduct.

- Promotion of unfounded conspiracy theories (e.g., targeting Anthony Fauci).

- Publicly accusing UK MP Jess Phillips of being a “rape genocide apologist,” endangering her safety.

- Failing to oppose Trump administration policies that allegedly threaten scientific freedom (e.g., funding cuts, censorship on EDI/climate issues).

The authors (led by Emeritus Professor Stephen Curry) warn that silence risks normalizing actions antithetical to the Society’s mission and values.

[...] According to your code of conduct, “Fellows and Foreign Members shall not act or fail to act in any way which would undermine the Society’s mission or bring the Society into disrepute.” Yet not one word of protest has been uttered by Mr Musk over actions that contradict the values the Society demands of its Fellows and that have caused widespread fear and concern within the scientific community in the States.

FRS stands for Fellow of the Royal Society, a prestigious title awarded by the UK's national science academy to individuals judged to have made "substantial contributions to the improvement of natural knowledge" in science, engineering, or medicine.

Google DocsOpen letter to the President of the Royal Society – time to stand up for your valuesIf you wish to show your support for the letter below regarding apparent inaction by the Royal Society in the face of breaches of its code of conduct by Elon Musk FRS, please sign below. I invite anyone who considers themselves a member of the UK or international scientific community to sign. I am not collecting email addresses. I will regularly update the blogpost where this letter originally appeared with signatories. 11 Feb 2025 Dear President Smith, I write to express my dismay at the continued silence and apparent inaction from the Royal Society over the Fellowship awarded in 2018 to Elon Musk. The Society was made aware of Fellows’ concerns over six months ago about how Musk’s behaviour was in contravention of your Code of Conduct. Clear instances of this, such as his promotion of unfounded conspiracy theories and his malicious accusations towards Anthony Fauci were highlighted in Professor Dorothy Bishop’s resignation statement. To that we can now add his post on X (Twitter) about the Rt Hon Jess Philips MP, Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Safeguarding and Violence Against Women and Girls, falsely accusing her of being a “rape genocide apologist” who should be jailed, an utterance that placed her in physical danger. I am at a loss to understand how these actions are consistent with a code of conduct that requires Fellows to have “due regard for the statement of values developed from time to time by Society”, (values that ask Fellows to “act in accordance with the highest standards of public life”, to make a “positive impact”, to “strive for excellence.”). The Royal Society, as our national science academy, holds a unique and leading position within the UK scientific community, a position that in the Society’s own words “rests upon the reputation of the Fellows and Foreign Members of which the Society is composed”. That reputation has been grievously undermined by the public statements of Mr Musk. The situation is rendered more serious because Mr Musk now occupies a position within a Trump administration in the USA that has over the past several weeks engaged in an assault on scientific research in the US that has fallen foul of federal courts. It has sought to impose huge cuts in funding and a regime of censorship (particularly with regard to EDI and climate issues) that is a direct threat to freedom of expression and academic freedom. According to your code of conduct, “Fellows and Foreign Members shall not act or fail to act in any way which would undermine the Society’s mission or bring the Society into disrepute.” Yet not one word of protest has been uttered by Mr Musk over actions that contradict the values the Society demands of its Fellows and that have caused widespread fear and concern within the scientific community in the States. This is a moment in which leaders and leading institutions need to take a stand. So far, the Royal Society has hidden behind the mantra that “Any issues raised in respect of individual fellows are dealt with in strict confidence.” I understand the need for confidentiality in cases of complaint, but the lack of any other statement in this very public instance, or recognition of its wider implications, increasingly looks like a failure of moral courage. What message does it send about the Society’s commitment to upholding its code, its values and its declarations about the importance of diversity and inclusion? What message of support does it send to our friends and colleagues in the USA, especially women, people from ethnic minorities, and disabled and LGBT researchers who are most exposed to the Trump-led offensive that has recruited Elon Musk FRS as its most enthusiastic general? I urge you, for the sake of decency and to offer hope in what are very troubling times, to demonstrate that the Royal Society has the courage to stand up for the scientific community and for the values that it claims to believe in. Yours sincerely Emeritus Professor Stephen Curry

Bluesky est-il décentralisé ? - next.ink/158967/bluesky-est-il

> On ne peut pas dire que Bluesky soit actuellement décentralisé, et encore moins fédéré. Il y a bien un centre, et il est géré par l’entreprise Bluesky. Sans son relai, rien ne fonctionne. Chaque serveur de données personnelles ne sert ainsi que comme petit réservoir pour les informations d’une personne, incapable de fonctionner par lui-même.

Merci Next pour ce bel article !

Pour moi ces " #RS " sont les 1ers artisans du pourquoi l'#occident part complétement en couille. C'est le pire des #US qui se répand insidieusement à grande échelle (et ils font les mêmes conneries avec l'#IA). Les #Trump ou autre #Macron sont absurdes en soi mais totalement logiques dans ce cadre-là, ils en sont la lame de fond. De toute façon, pour moi, les #Musk, #Zuckerberg ou autre #Bezos ne sont certainement pas des "génies".

✏️ Les grands réseaux sociaux commerciaux ne font qu'accélérer un mouvement de bascule civilisationnel qui amène à la "privatisation de l'esprit humain". Civilisationnel parce que celà aurait débuté en fait il y a 7 siècles 😮

Telle est la thèse hyper-résûmée des intervenants Antoinette Rouvroy (Unamur) et Mark Hunyadi (philosophe, UCLouvain) dans ce podcast glaçant ET inspirant, signé @aruyssen pour la #RTBF 👍
