Can someone please help me identify this tiny worm in my garden? It's like a piece of hair and it moves in a twisting motion. I think it's eating some of my plants, but I can't find out what it is. Anyone? At first I thought it was a hair, that's how thin it is.
It is in a bed where I have sown some red mustard plants which do seem to be chomped on. But maybe they're not the culprits. They look too tiny to cause much damage. If it's them, will diatomaceous earth control them?
@colinpurrington is this something you recognize?
Mastodon #worm experts. Is this a horsehair worm? I've never seen one before.

Data retention is a fancy feature now? Sure, flash beats tape if you don't mind returning to blank SSDs after a couple of years in storage.

@alterelefant @Heidi As of now, we can see stuff like the #ExaDrive, a 100TB 3,5" SSD for #online - #archival storage.
- As #Helium-filled #SMR-#HDD|s struggle to meet the demand for storage at an acceptable thermal & power envelope and price, #SSD|s will inevitable take over as not only the more robust media but also cheaper, more dense and easier to use.
As for the #NeoFloppy that thing could be made - I'm just not good enough layouting PCBs with the precision needed for #PCIe signalling...
- Needless to say if constant write speed and lifetime in writes is secondary, then a stack of cheap #SATA-SSDs already beats #LTO-9 tapes unless you need to backup literal #Petabytes and need the fancy features like #WORM media.
That being said, it's inevitable that even WORM as a feature may be copied over.
- In fact #ZFS can already offer many features of #LTFS, including read-only snapshots and thus append-only #archives.
Until there are #COTS solutions tho, LTO #Tape and other options will OFC remain dominant and relevant.
- Still I'd happily see storage vendors take up the NeoFloppy and build something off it.

Today's visitor: a bipalium #worm also called #hammerhead worm, a type of predatory planarian that eats other worms and is toxic (tetrodotoxin).
Continued thread
The #ConspiracyTheorist-turned-third-party candidate’s campaign has weathered a series of increasingly improbable-sounding scandals in recent months, from Kennedy’s admission that a #worm ate part of his #brain to his denial of reports that he once ate barbecued dog (he said it was a goat).
#RFKJr unleashed this latest one himself, in a 3-min video posted to X (formerly Twitter) on Sunday.

A Journey to the Hottest Place on Earth: #HydrothermalVents and the Resilient Pompeii Worm https://deepseanews.com/2024/06/a-journey-to-the-hottest-place-on-earth-hydrothermal-vents-and-the-resilient-pompeii-worm/
"The #worm is found on the sides of #hydrothermal vents, with its tube often reaching across the chimney to access some of the hottest fluids. The #worms can be briefly exposed to 100˚C waters, although temperatures adjacent to the worm’s tubes more often range between near freezing and 45˚C. The rear end likely experiences extreme heat while the front end experiences extreme cold"
Hello, hope you’re having a great day/weekend. I was wondering do you happen to have #worm friends. I was wanting to start breeding red wrigglers for my community #compost bins.
I know I can search and read which I have done but I like to talk to people who do this method. My friend gave me a couple aquariums. :) just thought I would check.
500 million years ago, the world was a very different place. Basically all life lived in the water. One of these creatures was a group of predatory worms with throats covered in spines, hooks and teeth to trap their prey, NPR reports:

Mediterranean marine #worm has developed eyes "as big as millstones" https://phys.org/news/2024-04-mediterranean-marine-worm-eyes-big.html
High-resolution vision in #pelagic #polychaetes https://www.cell.com/current-biology/fulltext/S0960-9822(24)00237-9
"if our eyes were proportionally as big as the ones of this worm, we would need a big, sturdy wheelbarrow and brawny arms to lug around the extra 100kg... the worm's eyes weigh about 20x as much as the rest of the animal's head and seem grotesquely out of place... As if two giant, shiny red balloons have been strapped to its body."

Researchers #worm themselves into your nightmares.
#GenerativeAI can be fooled into stealing info, sending spam and spreading disinformation. Researchers have demonstrated how #AI-powered agents can be maliciously subverted with self-replicating prompts. That allows the bad behavior to be made into a zero-click worm, so it spreads automatically.
Think about it: That’s frightening. In #SBBlogwatch, we try not to. At @TechstrongGroup’s @SecurityBlvd: https://securityboulevard.com/2024/03/compromptmized-ai-worm-malware-richixbw/?utm_source=richisoc&utm_medium=social&utm_content=richisoc&utm_campaign=richisoc
