@charleshumphrey.bsky.socialHad a nice little run on eBay this month, this is the first of my wins to arrive, #whitedwarf issue 25. Another strange cover, but as ever great content. Introductions to #dnd, optional skills for #traveller etc. #ttrpg #retro
@samillingworth.com🪐 A dead star has a day-night rhythm
Astronomers tracking a white dwarf found a 4.4-day brightness dip of just 0.12%, likely a planet's day-night cycle, or the tail of a comet evaporating as it orbits the dead star.
@theslowpainter.bsky.socialNeed a lil’help #warhammercommunity folks, esp oldhead #whitedwarf readers!
Trying to find a batt-rep abt a space marine drop pod assault on an ork airfield. Roughly before or after the Armageddon global campaign in 2000 & im struggling to find it!
Anyone have a rough idea of when I need to look?
@nationaldesk.bsky.socialHubble cracked a cold case: rare niobium in 1999 data on white dwarf HS 0209+0832 hints at a second-generation, Jupiter-size planet formed from the dead star's ejecta, a Nature Astronomy study says.

@darkcosmicinsights.bsky.socialA dead star has a mystery engine. 🔭
RXJ0528+2838 is producing a bow shock from an outflow lasting at least 1,000 years.
No gas disk has been detected, and its current magnetic field doesn’t fully explain the duration.

@shirtsfrenzy.bsky.socialDiamond Core sets a crystallized white dwarf on a dark astronomy tee - a dead star ringing with the shape of its own heart. Ships to US & Canada.
@charleshumphrey.bsky.socialOk, so, i think out of all #whitedwarf issues in am now missing the following (as you can imagine i hold out little hope for those early issues):
1-18, 20,22,23,25,26,44 and 100.
Hoping i can get those 20s at some point.

@charleshumphrey.bsky.socialIts got bugs but its a start Sector from #whitedwarf issue 36, generating a random sector for Traveller.
@charleshumphrey.bsky.socialIn old #whitedwarf issues there are sometimes lists of computer code you could use for your #ttrpg games. Im a programmer by trade, is there any interest in me re writing these and making them public, including source code for folk to download and use? Even if not, I'll probably do it anyway lol

@charleshumphrey.bsky.socialAnother great issue of #whitedwarf dropped through my letterbox, issue 40. I find the cover quite odd, yet another classic though. Looking forward to reading it.
