Difffuse Studio has launched Procedural Crowds Pro, a new and improved version of their popular Geometry Nodes-powered add-on for Blender that enables you to quickly and easily populate your 3D environments with sizeable groups of characters.

Featuring over 30 unique photoscanned character models, the plug-in allows you to generate and customize various types of crowds, with options including an audience crowd, a circle crowd, follow curve, a marching formation, a random crowd, and more. The animations of the human characters will vary depending on the type of crowd you choose, including Idle, Walk, or Cheering. Moreover, the toolset also includes a neat feature that lets you add individual human characters and assign animations from a pre-defined list.

The earth will be habitable for 1.4 billion years but by then we could control the earth to make last forever same with the sun with high levels of technologies.

Humans will likely die long before our planet does.

How does cannabis alleviate the symptoms associated with chronic musculoskeletal (MSK) pain in patients? This is what a recent study published in the Journal of Cannabis Research hopes to address as a team of researchers from Canada investigated patient perception regarding cannabis use and treating their MSK symptoms. This study comes as an increasing number of MSK patients have turned to cannabis to alleviate their pain symptoms without hard data to support that use.

For the study, the researchers conducted a self-reported survey with 629 MSK patients in Canada with an average age of 56 years old and comprised of 44 percent men and 56 percent women. For the surveys, the patients were asked to privately disclose their past or present cannabis use in managing their MSK pain. In the end, 144 (23 percent) of participants reported past or present cannabis use with 63.7 percent disclosing that cannabis was effective at treating their MSK pain and 26.6 percent disclosing it as “slightly effective”, per the study.

The researchers concluded, “One in five patients presenting to an orthopaedic surgeon with chronic MSK pain are using or have used cannabis with the specific intent to manage their pain, and most report it to be effective. Among non-users, two-thirds reported an interest in using cannabis to manage their MSK pain, but common barriers to use existed. Future double-blind placebo-controlled trials are required to understand if this reported efficacy is accurate, and what role, if any, cannabis may play in the management of chronic MSK pain.”
