Quantum Scars Hold the Key to Persistent Work

New research reveals that quantum many-body scars can retain significantly more extractable work than typical quantum systems, offering a potential path toward more efficient quantum energy storage.

The Straw Hat Pirates are the main characters in One Piece, and they’re arguably the most compelling part of the whole story. Starting their journey in the East Blue, this crew is full of distinct personalities who have complex and fascinating relationships. They function more like a close-knit family, fiercely protective of one another. However, even with that strong bond, some crew members have a friendly rivalry alongside their willingness to sacrifice for each other.

Now that Xbox Game Pass costs more, whether it’s still a good value depends on how often you use it. If you regularly buy new games, Game Pass is probably still worth the price, even with the increase. But if you only play a Game Pass game occasionally, you might want to subscribe for fewer months. Microsoft is definitely working hard to add lots of great games to the service, including more new releases, to make the higher price worthwhile.

Steam is usually reliable, but occasionally experiences problems. Recently, on Christmas Eve, Steam went down briefly, recovered, and then went down again. Currently, some players can access Steam while others can’t, and it’s unknown when these issues will be completely fixed.

Recently in the Boruto series, Naruto Uzumaki appears much weaker than before. Several new ninja – actually, four so far – have become stronger than he is. While surprising to many fans, this change in Naruto’s power level is the reason other characters have been able to surpass him.

Finding or creating powerful items from common materials can dramatically alter gameplay, letting players bypass the need to spend resources or rely on chance. Similarly, crafting essential materials that are normally difficult to obtain can significantly improve a player’s equipment, boosting both their damage output and ability to survive. Surprisingly, some of the most useful blueprints are often overlooked. While they might seem basic compared to rarer rewards, these recipes are crucial for success and increasing a player’s chances of survival.

Episode 1155 of One Piece will conclude the long-running Egghead arc. This means viewers will see the Straw Hat crew leave the Egghead island for the last time. The episode will center around the start of their voyage to Elbaf.

We don’t have official details about the next generation of Pokémon games (Gen 10) yet, but information is expected to be revealed on Pokémon Day, February 27th. A previous leak, known as the “Teraleak,” revealed a lot about the games, including potential titles, the region they’ll be set in, the Legendary Pokémon, and even the starter Pokémon, along with some images. Now, a short video has leaked, showing an early version of the game and how the new battle mechanic works. Some people are saying it has a strong resemblance to One Piece, and it might not appeal to all players.

Once you’ve used an Evolution on a card, it can no longer be traded with other players. Think carefully before using Evolutions on valuable cards if you might want to sell them later, as this change is permanent.
Researchers propose a gate-based microwave quantum repeater design that utilizes grid-state encoding to overcome limitations of traditional approaches and enhance long-distance quantum communication.
