#Skywind is (sort of) a recreation of TES: #Morrowind as a #Skyrim mod, and is allegedly still "in development".
Skyrim is now 12 years old.
Morrowind was 10 years old when the mod was announced.
Bets?
#History / Wikipedia surprise of the day:
I was yesterday days old when I realized that #Cleopatra was not actually Egyptian at all, but in fact - *Greek*.
(Or half Greek / half Egyptian, that's unclear).
She wore her hair in a bun, had a slightly fleeing chin, and rather "Hellenistic" features overall.

Even her name is, and sounds, Greek, (kleos: glory, patros: father).
Ah yes, and she was "Kleopatra VII Thea Philopator". The 7th.
How did I not know that?
fascinating (and gorgeous!) chart showing the evolution of recorded-music revenue over the last 50 years
the first thing that jumps out at me is how much smaller the overall pie is post-streaming. the streaming services and major labels have successfully managed a) to dramatically devalue recorded music and b) to put a much larger percentage of it directly into their own pockets. it's one of the single biggest upward transfers of wealth in history — from artists to billionaire corporations
Hackers host malicious code on Binance chain to circumvent takedowns

An otherwise very "web2" hack has taken on a web3 twist as hackers have started to store malicious code on the blockchain. Attackers first compromise WordPress websites, then show a screen to visitors telling them they need to update their browser to view the website. When the visitor does so, the site downloads malware which then harvests information like login credentials.Attackers previously stored the malicious code on typical webhosting services, but those services began to take it down. Now, some have started using Binance's blockchain to store these payloads, taking advantage of the immutable nature of blockchains to prevent anyone from taking it down.
