Relevant excerpt from the changes of the 231 version: >A new service setting MemoryDenyWriteExecute= has been added, taking a boolean value. If turned on, a service may no longer create memory mappings that are writable and executable at the same time. This enhances security for services where this...

You can find part one [here](https://rawhex.com/blogs/news/a-very-hacky-christmas-tree-part-1), that shows you how to get the basic lights working.

Research reveals addiction has a genetic basis and is influenced by changes in brain gene expression, which can be altered by medications and lifestyle, providing new treatment possibilities. Many people are wired to seek and respond to rewards. Your brain interprets food as rewarding when you are h...

Recent research indicates cytisinicline may effectively help individuals quit vaping, with a trial showing promising results in doubling cessation rates compared to a placebo. Eleven million U.S. adults use e-cigarettes to vape nicotine, and about half of them say that they want to stop, but many ha...

Mount Sinai researchers, in collaboration with scientists at Rockefeller University, have discovered how cocaine and morphine hijack the brain’s natural reward systems. Their study, published in the journal Science on April 18, provides new insights into the brain’s neural mechanisms inv...

Researchers at EPFL have effectively tested a new method that allows for deep exploration of the human brain without the need for surgery, with potential applications in therapy. Neurological disorders like addiction, depression, and obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) impact millions globally, pres...

New research reveals the communication mechanisms between your brain and gut. An international team of researchers has pinpointed certain gut bacteria linked to the development of food addiction in both mice and humans, which can contribute to obesity. Additionally, they have identified bacteria tha...

A UCLA Health study shows that insomnia drug prevents opioid addiction in mice at opioid doses that provide potent pain relief. Research shows suvorexant, used for insomnia, may also prevent opioid addiction in mice by blocking hypocretin receptors. It maintains effective pain relief and reduces add...

Scientists have developed new biosensors that enable real-time tracking of opioid signaling in the brain, offering profound insights into the effects of opioids and enhancing the development of targeted therapeutics. New findings from a researcher at the Max Planck Florida Institute for Neuroscience...

Researchers at Mainz University have discovered a natural compound that could potentially serve as a long-term alternative to opioids and may help alleviate the opioid crisis. Opioids, recognized for their significant pharmacological effects, have long been used as effective painkillers. Morphine, a...

A new study reveals how cocaine interferes with the brain’s dopamine regulation by binding to the dopamine transporter, offering insights crucial for developing treatments for cocaine and other addictions. You’ve likely heard of dopamine, often referred to as the “feel-good hormone...

Psychedelic substances like psilocybin, ketamine, and MDMA, once dismissed as mere “party drugs,” are being reevaluated for their therapeutic potential in treating addiction, as highlighted in a series of articles by the Journal of Studies on Alcohol and Drugs. These studies reveal promi...

A specific neuron circuit could open up a new avenue for treating addiction. A team of researchers from the University of California, Irvine has discovered that an antioxidant in rosemary extract can help reduce voluntary cocaine consumption by regulating the brain’s reward system, presenting ...

New research highlights that men and women with alcohol dependence may need different treatment approaches due to distinct hormonal and biochemical profiles. The study identifies specific hormone and protein markers that correlate with Alcohol Use Disorder symptoms and treatment responses, suggestin...

New research shows that Ozempic and similar drugs reduce opioid overdoses by 40% and alcohol intoxication by 50% in people with substance use disorders. These medications, often prescribed for diabetes and weight issues, may help treat addiction by influencing brain reward pathways. A recent study p...
