I'm using instagram to browse the discover feed mindlessly sometimes. I know, it's stupid, but I'm bored....

So, just finished reading an article on WaPo about fireflies/lightening bugs and got me thinking further... Car headlights suck. They mess up our night vision when we pass another dickhead running white/blue lights. We mess up the habit(at) of many animals/bugs. So why not red lights? My hiking/camping headlamp has a red light...

a'la 2010, would any moons that survive then be considered 'planets' ?

I have set my new name everywhere I can in the AppleID settings but the old name is still showing up in this place, and maybe in other places which I haven’t seen yet. But how can I get my chosen name to show up here?...

I'm 36, and while my love life has been varied and interesting, over the last few years I've started to want to settle down. I know it doesn't happen overnight. But recently it's been weighing on me more and more. I reminisce about past relationships. I feel hopeless about meeting someone in the future who shares my values....

I'm sure there's a valid reason, but I've got no idea what it is. Why "Kelvin?" Is that a reference to a character in the original Star Trek continuity?

I was watching a television show yesterday and the premise of the episode was that a terrorist group had broken into an old abandoned USPHS lab and stole samples of the original strain to use as a biological weapon. It got me thinking, is that particular version of the flu virus still particularly dangerous? I know H1N1 strains...

I have very limited background in programming. I quite want to develop the game myself, or with only minimal help. Is there one language that is better than others for game development, or is more versatile?

there's so many people that own 5+ shitboxes, but there's no way they're paying over a grand a year to insure all of them. is there something where you pay less to add on a car? obviously you can't drive all 5 at once, so is there something where like only one at a time is covered for collisions, and the rest only if like a tree...

Kbin is the first Reddit alternative I looked at and i liked the UI so I stuck with it. I kind of assumed everything would be kbin. I thought I understood things. I thought it was kbin and lemmy separate but they federated and so I’d be able to access lemmy stuff from kbin. Which I guess is true. But now I’m confused. I look...

Title. I found out recently that I need some major dental work in the near future and I don't have a damn clue how I am going to raise the extra money. I want to explore any realistic options for increasing my earnings before I have to resort to taking on debt, and I suspect that soliciting ideas in a semi-public place like this...

It used to be very convenient that when searching for something that had a geographic location, Google searches used to show a small map which linked to Google maps when pressed....

ATMs I’ve checked:...

I just had a inquiry call with the person in charge of the site and it all seems to good to be true. 1,000$ and they handle the workload to get you a job offer you like. They apply to 30-50 jobs a day on your behalf until you have a job. They also mentor your through the entire process. I can’t find any reviews of comments...

That's what my brain wants to know....

I have feet that are 10inches long and 4 1/2 inches wide. An online graph says that's size8 and 4wide. The most I've found online is 3 wide....

c.f. surf music and spongebob's sound cues...

Basically title. As you can see, I see this community and can post to it fine. But some others just return a 404....

Is the front of a computer mouse the arse of it due to the cable "tail" coming out of it, or is the front of a computer mouse the head of the mouse, as it is more of a correct shape?

I have two blankets I really like and use frequently, but I don't like having on my bed (due to them being too warm). If I had them on the floor overnight when I don't need them, would it damage the blankets?...

So would you say animal behaviour is indeed changing lately?...
