8YO, half-angrily: Look at all this bubble wrap. That needs to be popped. *Stares as if challenging me to disagree*
@FiXato Maybe they can release Android 12.99999999999999 instead
I was pleasantly surprised to actually *see* quinces in the grocery store a few weeks ago. Didn’t pick them up, though maybe I should have.
Unable to find a good dessert starting with Q, Android has dropped the naming scheme for what is now just being called Android 10.
Two emails that arrived within a minute of each other:
“The Amazon is burning…”
“An unexpected way to shop with Amazon”
🤦♂️
@DialMforMara Hmm, I like the logic of that.
Looking for more Pokemon Go friends for the new research missions. If you’re interested, my code is 2658 1380 0806
Interesting story of a vanished disease called Devonshire colic, caused by drinking poisonous cider and relieved (in part) by soaking in the hot springs at Bath…
When the Cure for Poisonous Cider Was Hours of Bathtime
…because it turned out that the colic was actually lead poisoning from the cider-making equipment in Devon, and spending all day in water, like living in microgravity, causes bones to shed some of their mineral content.
@sohkamyung Thanks. Closest seems to be Emmelina monodactyla.
Weird bug I saw today. Looked like a moth as it flew past me, looks like a pair of twigs on the wall.
#iNaturalist suggests it *is* a kind of moth, possibly a plume moth of some sort. I don’t think I’ve seen a moth whose wings roll up forward before.
Saw a small part of a Godzilla movie. Which one features Godzilla vs a giant flying rock?
Aha, I think I found it:
Godzilla 2000: Millennium
Sure, autocorrect, it makes total sense to talk about a Glock of pigeons…. 🙄
Or maybe the pigeons are armed?
“That’s it!”
I think the headline says it all: “Dropbox had to evacuate its headquarters when an electric scooter caught fire”
This is cool: researchers have developed a “soft” robotic lens that can change its shape in response to electrical generated by eye movement. Potential not just for replacement lenses, but also contacts or glasses that adjust to distance, or even zoom.
Well-titled article on the incredibly cryptic (and still unexplained) #VoynichManuscript:
“Why do people keep convincing themselves they’ve solved this medieval mystery?”
I have been pulled into the alternate reality of Pokemon Go. And now I have a research task to add a new friend. I’ve seen people on here talk about the game, so if anyone’s willing to add me on the game, please DM me. Thanks!
