Quite a few this time! I happened upon, like, six fascinating links in a row right after publishing the fifty-third link roundup and didn’t want to repeat myself too soon. Regardless:

• Possibly the greatest post in Reddit history?
• Nosferatu Flow or Nosferatu Vogue? You decide.
• The New Yorker goes to a film-restoration festival in Bologna
• The Ocean Photographer of the Year award-winners for 2025
• Peak Jut, a new measure that tries to find the most visually imposing mountains rather than the tallest.
• The world’s longest airplane is being built to haul around the blades of wind turbines
• Denton House: “Built in 1795 as a farmhouse, it was converted in the 1860s to a Georgian-style mansion. It is currently a McDonald’s restaurant.”
• The story of a fruitarian death in Bali
• Notes from Prince Harry’s ghostwriter
• “Hosting a WebSite on a Disposable Vape.” But can it run Doom? (Probably.)
• The “Polish System” used an even grid of squares to try and visualise the entirety of history.
• The Ithaca Kitty, the U.S.’s first mass-market plushie
• A working large language model made entirely out of redstone. Words fail me.
• Continuing the machine-learning theme, ”continuous thought machines” take inspiration from biological neurons to add a dimension of time to the process of “thinking”. There’s some marketing fluff to wade through, but the idea seems promising.
• “A vivid testament to a life lived hornily”
• Epic Systems takes in five billion dollars per year. Its corporate headquarters is a fantasy castle.
• Hector (cloud)
• I don’t think i quite realised just how revolutionary The Matrix’s bullet-time effect was until watching this video.
