Due to social distancing guidelines and stay-at-home orders across the U.S., removal of bodies may take longer than usual and families may need to keep their deceased loved ones at home for an extended period of time. Funerals have either been banned from taking place, as in the case of Washington state, or are limited to immediate family only due to bans on large gatherings. Reuters reported that funeral homes in California, where people have been ordered to stay indoors, have limited the options they offer and are limiting the number of relatives who can attend, even at outdoor burial ceremonies....
What Is a Lithophane? The word lithophane originates from the Greek words litho, which translate to “stone,” and phainein, which means “to cause to appear.” A lithophane works by modulating the light passing through it. In simple words, it creates a height map of the image, and the darker areas of the image are thicker, thus restricting the light passing through them, while the lighter sections of the image have a thin cross-section, allowing for more light to pass through....
Linux also uses the term job to refer to a very similar concept. The difference is subtle but important, and job control is a useful tool when running a multi-tasking environment. You can use a number of tools and built-in commands to juggle jobs. What Is a Process? At the very simplest level, you can think of a process as the equivalent of a program that you run. It may be a full-blown GUI application such as your web browser....
Over the summer, two unrelated people from the Fairbanks area of Alaska visited an urgent care clinic with skin lesions, according to a bulletin from state health officials.

Around four days after the lesion first appeared, she had a mild fever, and her underarm lymph nodes grew in size....
With no experience in politics, Donald Trump quickly rose to popularity in the Republican Party eventually becoming its nominee. Hillary Clinton, on the other hand, was a career politician who many thought would be the winner, and who in fact led in many polls. But on election night, November 8, 2016, Trump pulled ahead, due in part to the way in which the United States tabulated votes in presidential elections....

HFS+ and HFS (an earlier version of the Hierarchical File System) were created in the days of floppy disks, the primary storage medium for the Mac back when spinning hard drives were an expensive option offered by third parties. Apple flirted with replacing HFS+ over the years. Eventually, APFS, which is already included in iOS, tvOS, and watchOS, became the default file system for Macs running macOS High Sierra and later....
As psychoanalysts celebrate the 100th anniversary of Freud’s “The Interpretation of Dreams” this week, fresh scientific research is reinvigorating the debate. Studies show that brain areas responsible for emotion and perhaps even motivation may play a role in the dreaming process.

The results are in. Here’s what’s happening, what the amnesty for suspended Twitter accounts means, and which accounts will be affected. The Lead-Up Twitter has several notable suspended accounts of public figures. One of the most popular was that of former US President Donald Trump, which was suspended in 2021 for the risk of incitement following the US Capitol riots. This was before Musk bought Twitter. Fast-forward to 23 November and following the reinstatement of Trump’s Twitter account, Musk asked “Should Twitter offer a general amnesty to suspended accounts, provided that they have not broken the law or engaged in egregious spam?...
Given Nintendo’s relationship with Koei Tecmo and the development partnership it shared with Fire Emblem studio Intelligent Systems during the development of Fire Emblem: Three Houses, a project like this makes sense. It especially makes sense given the success of 2020’s Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity, which reunited the Legend of Zelda series with Dynasty Warriors’ gameplay to deliver an alternate universe prequel to The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild....

One seat each in North Carolina and Alaska are expected to go to the Republican side, giving them 50 seats, so the two seats in Georgia that will be decided in a January runoff election will be the difference between Democrats or Republicans having control of the Senate....
Brady isn’t going to be in the booth during the 2022 NFL season — and perhaps beyond — as he is still playing for the Buccaneers. As such, Fox needed a stopgap analyst solution for their No. 1 broadcast team alongside play-by-play man Kevin Burkhardt. They found one in Greg Olsen. Andrew Marchand of the New York Post reported on Thursday that Olsen is expected to partner with Burkhardt for the second consecutive season....

The debate about who Trump will pick to replace Associate Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg began immediately after news of Ginsburg’s death on September 18. Trump told reporters last weekend that his nominee will “most likely” be a woman, and Barrett has been widely reported as one of the potential nominees at the top of his list. Earlier in his term as president, Trump nominated Barrett, who once clerked for the late Associate Justice Antonin Scalia, to serve on the U....
