Campfires are actually quite bad for air quality

What’s next? A license to use my own damn toaster?

Doesn’t look like it. Not on Android at all either. They say they can’t ensure the privacy of an app on Android. I don’t fully understand why.

You love to see it.

The comments on this article are really interesting

They are filled with people saying that this is a very poorly written article about an interesting topic.

From what I can glean with my limited knowledge. This insanely high “temperature” of 30-50k, is actually how the author is trying to represent the speed of particles. However, the insanely small amount of particles means the “temperature” is almost imperceptible. I think? This is why Voyager was able to cross this barrier with no issues. As one commenter put it, an astronaut in a space suit would not be able to notice the difference.

Also, the article talks about why this phenomenon occurs, it’s the sun’s magnetic field. And inside the field, it’s like an atmosphere that is different than outside. And the winds outside move a lot faster. Even though the particles are few and far between. As the sun moves throughout space it’s magnetic field creates an effect similar to that of a ship moving through water. Also, the magnetic field itself fluctuates with the sun so it’s shape and size changes. I thought that was pretty interesting.

Also, someone commented something questioning how the Voyager, a half-a-century-old device, could accomplish this and still communicate with us. And another commenter responded that it’s actually pretty amazing. Because we are only able to communicate with it still because we have upgraded our sensors on earth and because the Voyager itself is still pointed towards earth.

How can you tell?

That′s fucked up

So beautiful

For sure, these are nice. Just wish I could do it in both directions.

Thanks for this! I had no idea what was going on.

Mushrooms are actually incredibly good for you. They are one of the cleanest sources of protein you can get and actually have many incredible health effects. Also, they are fucking delicious. Here’s a good link to learn more. 🍄 https://youtu.be/KEa8W0OneH4

I′m wondering if it′s a paid propaganda account.

Amazing. Is that book Ghost Boy? I’ve always wanted to read it.

What’s a similar alternative?

People love to shit on TikTok, but honestly, I really enjoy it. It’s not for everyone, and that’s okay. Short-form content can be a lot—for me too. It took me a while to hone my algorithm and wade through stuff I didn’t like. But TikTok stands out compared to Instagram Reels or YouTube Shorts. The content feels more authentic and engaging. When I scroll through TikTok, I often feel like I’m learning something new or having my perspective challenged.

TikTok’s algorithm doesn’t completely suppress leftist views. It’s one of the few platforms where conversations about issues like the genocide in Palestine actually gain traction. Of course, it’s a corporate platform, and it’s far from perfect. It has its alt-right pipelines and played a role in Trump winning this election because it was popular, and his team utilized it. But let’s not pretend that’s unique to TikTok—all social media platforms are allowing and often skewing towards the alt-right.

And then there’s the whole “TikTok is Chinese spyware” narrative, which just feels like a distraction. If we’re worried about surveillance, let’s not ignore how U.S.-based platforms are also spying on us—for corporations and the government alike. Singling out TikTok for being Chinese misses the bigger picture entirely. This ban is happening because Meta and others don’t want competition.

Square roots

Thanks!
