Summary
An Existential Fairytale
A woman awakens in a strange and unfamiliar body to find herself in the dangerous realm of Eorzea, with no knowledge of who she is or how she got there. When she meets an oddly-familiar, heroic traveler teaching an obscure, mystical sword art, she joins him in a series of escapades and humorous misadventures to learn his unusual style of magic, help him solve a mystery from his past, and regain her memories.
Eventual spoilers: RDM & MSQ thru 4.1 but can be read fandom-blind
Who'll likely enjoy this the most: Anyone who grooved to "The Guardians of the Galaxy Awesome Mix vol. 1", got most of the references in "Ready Player One", and was disappointed by "Pride and Prejudice and Zombies".
Who'll get the most authentic experience: Anyone who hasn't played FFXIV before &/or has a hazy memory when it comes to movies/pop culture from the past 8 decades. If this is you, just go with it. Hope you're comfortable with recurring déjà vu.

Science & culture | A century-old shipwreck is raising new questions about the Antarctic treaty system and vessel AI by saltstreets

Summary
In 1914, the analytical engine had been in existence for over half a century but was still largely rudimentary compared to its modern incarnation. For the Endurance to be fitted with a “brain” was a great expense, and makes the wreck a unique oddity. Some have argued that the wreck be considered not an artefact to be left undisturbed, but rather a potentially living survivor of the expedition in need of rescue.

Summary
John Bridgens, whose serenity and erudition belied his lowly status as a steward, had served nearly twenty years at Sea with little to stir the banked passions within that had blazed with such heat and voracity in his youth. Aboard his present vessel, His Majesty’s Ship the Beagle, the unwavering steadiness of his character inspired the respect of his fellow sailors and his superior officers alike, though the former were rather more likely to value his memories of the Napoleonic Wars, while the latter took a paternalistic pride in his vast literary knowledge and tendency to draw from the recesses of his remarkable mind a morsel of wisdom from some great Classical philosopher or poet to suit any occasion. One could not doubt, after conversing at length with Mr Bridgens, that Englishmen were made of stronger mettle than their Continental counterparts; he proved that even the English commoners had nimble minds and noble souls.

Summary
I got no real answers from Pam or The Others, never figured out their motives for keeping me In Here. If only I could make some sense of it all. But trying to find meaning In Here was futile. Elusive. It was always faster, always one pounce ahead of you. It slipped through your toe beans like the red dot you can’t catch.
The one thing I knew for certain was that, soon, everything would change. I knew it the moment he waddled through that door.
