Mount Etna on Sicily has erupted again, spewing ash clouds that forced the closure of Catania airport and halted flights. Hundreds of passengers, including German families and a travel writer, are stranded, with some told to expect days of waiting before they can fly home. Separately, a possible small eruption was reported at Gareloi volcano in Alaska's Aleutian Islands.
- 3OpenDLSS Brings Nvidia's DLSS-Style Neural Rendering to Vulkan●OpenDLSS: A Vulkan Reimplementation of Nvidia's DLSS 5 Neural Rendering Network
A new open-source project called OpenDLSS offers a Vulkan-based reimplementation of Nvidia's DLSS 5 neural rendering network, aiming to reproduce the upscaling and frame-generation technology outside Nvidia's proprietary stack. The release is drawing attention among developers interested in vendor-neutral neural rendering, with discussion centring on how closely it matches Nvidia's approach and whether it could work across GPUs from other manufacturers.
