    I love Benfey's table. I find it the most intuitive to interpret at a glance at what's actually going on with the electrons and the filing of the orbitals (in the version where the…

    I like the old logo more. It looks less commercial, more old-fashioned, and less sleek, which I think is a good thing for a museum.

    FreeCAD[1] is the most advanced in my opinion. The next release is also supposed to solve the longstanding topological naming issue, and finally be the first 1.0 version. [1] https…

    Why would you follow that link in particular? You can find all the license information here: https://wire.com/en/legal/terms-of-use-personal/ , scroll down and click on license inf…

    I was honestly confused for a second why would you think the name had anything to do with a fetish (minus some mastodon content) until I realized you saw it as fe-diverse and not f…

    The people in charge quite possibly have crypto farms themselves, so... don't expect a solution until there are literal electricity blackouts due to shortages or the electorate get…

    A much better example for this topic are IMO elephants, they behave with certain gentle quiet reverence around elephant bones they stumble upon. They also exhibit some even more ri…

    Yup, I've missed it somehow. I'm also a fan of approval and particularly star voting compared to IRV. It's good they're gaining ground.

    The US's green house emissions per capita are twice as big as China's[1]. Considering China's population is about 4 times bigger it puts the absolute pollution at about 1:2. Chines…

    I'm surprised nobody's mentioned yet a key (admittedly not only) part in making the US so polarized: first past the post voting system which inevitably leads to a two party system.…

    Nobody is actually expected (emphasis on expected) to really know the third taught language beyond a couple phrases later in life. Many do, but it's not a universal fact. It's more…

    I don't know if what that person wrote is true, but drains exist and it's not like Vegas gets a lot of rain, it's literally in a desert, floods aren't really a big concern.

    I believe you can do this on the Developer Edition, install unsigned add-ons. The DE is basically the same as Firefox Beta but with these kinds of tweaks.

    If you're using Firefox, there are extensions that let you view an archived version of a webpage with a click. Almost every interesting article with a soft paywall I bump into has …

    Right, but it's not the size that counts, it's the motion in the ocean. And what's on the inside. This little guy's from the Oort cloud. He's been places, he's seen things.

    I'm also on Firefox (Focus) on Android. I found the GitHub link at the bottom of the page: https://github.com/MSPaintIDE/MSPaintIDE . It has screenshots and a video of usage.

    Before: 100 users, 100 accurate retweets. After: 100 users, 99 accurate retweets. The study followed 2000 and I can only assume they all retweeted multiple times, like 10, so you g…
