Huh, I thought that bit sounded interesting but each to their own. I like card games in real life, but not having to deal with bothering to shuffle all the time is nice.

This ~~month~~ week's free game is Spelldrifter:

Introducing Spelldrifter, a hybrid tactical role playing game and deck building game that features the best parts of both! Spelldrifter combines the puzzle-like positional tactics of a turn-based RPG battle with the deep customizability and replayability of a collectible card game. The result: a hybrid, wherein players must juggle the resources at their disposal using both time and space.

With Spelldrifter's innovative Tick System, players are challenged to think of card game strategy in a new light. With each character action, the turns interweave on a single timeline. With mastery of the timeline, players gain great advantage in battle and earn the satisfaction of decisive victory. Select your party of heroes, build your decks, and embark on an adventure deep into Starfall as you search for the entrance to the mysterious Labyrinth!

Has anyone played it?

Uncharted

That's still a series I've yet to start but I'm sure I'll love them.

Ah, I'm too late for this. Cave Story+ is on until "today" (no idea what time/timezone it changes).

I just re-read your link it to see if it mentions where the sensors are; I'd assumed the sensors were outside the bowl since that's what people are interested in but it doesn't say.

The paper is available, but as a layman the "read full text" path just takes me in a circle.

The research found that putting the toilet lid down reduced the number of both visible and smaller droplets during and after flushing by 30-60%. However, use of the lid also increased the diameter and concentration of the bacteria in these droplets.

It was also found that airborne microdroplets were detected for 16 minutes after flushing the toilet with the lid down, 11 minutes longer than when the toilet was flushed with the lid up. The researchers suggest that this could be due to particles being re-aerosolised from surfaces rather than being created by the turbulence of the toilet flushing. Alternatively, the researchers suggest that airborne particles could stick together, or agglomerate, which would cause them to remain airborne for longer.

Those are fascinating findings; I wouldn't expect that in some ways lid-down is worse...

This seems like something that should be true, but I think I remember seeing a Mythbusters episode where they decided it didn't make a difference. That show was more about entertainment than science, so I wondered if there was a more rigorous study done? I've definitely seen splashes of water(?) come out from flushes so that alone seems to argue for closing lids.

I just tried to decode that acronym for a bit too: "mystery kanban bunny haired boss"? He's a tech YouTuber.
