Alan Henry is @halophoenix.bsky.social now!
Well, it's time for some ✨personal news!✨ After five years, I'm leaving @WIRED. My choice, my call, and I'll miss my WIRED Ones dearly. My last day is Aug 9th. On Aug 19th, I'll start as Managing Editor at @PCMag, rejoining a crew I've known and loved for YEARS. I'm thrilled!

someone asked me if my stanley cup was a limited-edition she hadn't seen yet and I told her, no, it's just very, very old my buying hack is to keep stuff for so long enough that people start assuming it's some kind of collectible

Welcome back, Voyager 2. @NASA has reestablished full communications with Voyager 2. We shouted 12.5 billion miles (19.9 billion km) into interstellar space, instructing it to turn its antenna back to Earth – and after 37 hours, we found out it worked! go.nasa.gov/3Y9qP7D

After 4,305 days and 12,000+ stories, I filed my last post to Gizmodo today. It has been a wild ride, and I’ve had the chance to work with some incredibly talented people. Now I’m going to put my head on a pillow and not worry about waking up to an overflowing inbox for a while.

the part of the ocean the titanic is located in is called 'the midnight zone', and everything living there is either a transparent, eyeless monster or a glow-in-the dark thing with entirely *too many* eyes altogether we're not wanted there
