  2. Discussing Pseudoscience With Archeologist Flint Dibble

    youtube.com/watch?v=tRIYhWl01rE

    I don't know what happened but pseudoscience and conspiracy theories started spreading like wildfire ever since the covid-19 pandemic. Fighting all of that misinformation online is not easy work, but thanks to people like this who take their time and effort to do so. Not all heroes wear capes!

  3. I've been using the app for some time now, nice to see their new wrapped feature.

    So apparently in 2025 I spent 2563 minutes listening to music, where I listened to 293 unique songs, 251 unique albums and 189 unique artists! 🙂

  4. I still find it crazy that we have cables running along the ocean floor connecting the entire world across continents, absolutely insane story!

    This video turned out to be more interesting than I thought. And also kinda sad to see how current politics is negatively impacting science missions.

  6. This American Life - 865: The Other Territory

    > Since October 7th, while the world has focused its attention on Gaza, the Israeli government has tightened the screws on the three million Palestinians in the West Bank in all sorts of dramatic ways. We travel to the West Bank to see these changes in person.

    > The wetness of water seems obvious - but dive into the science and it's not so clear cut. We take a closer look at what wetness really is.

    Answering this question turned out to be more interesting than I thought.

  8. They Didn't Make Dire Wolves, They Made Something…Else

    youtube.com/watch?v=Ar0zgedLyTw

    I feel like this video is an important one to share. I'm glad he also shed some light on the importance of publicly funded research, people don't seem to realize just how much of the science that comes out of private companies are built on studies from academia.

  9. How Does Television Stone Work?

    Its always fascinating to see these cool things existing in nature, all it takes is for a curious observer to stumble upon them to reveal something new about our world that we didn't know before.

    My mind is blown away by this video! 🤯 I wouldn't have believed if someone told me they made this shit work today, let alone in 1910. Sometimes the ingenuity of humans is unbelievable!

    Here is also a article about it - en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gyro_m

    TIL after watching this video that spacetime curvature doesn't actually mean it's bending into the 4th dimension, all this time I thought otherwise 😅

    Man I would absolutely love it if I could turn my blood into poison for mosquitoes 😈🦟

    I really enjoyed this podcast episode because I've actually pondered about this question myself before, just like the 11 year old who called in and asked them. Considering the wide range of activities we humans can do just with the energy we get from our daily meals, it really makes you wonder how efficient we are as a species, compared to machines, other animals, etc.

    Some of these everyday things in our life are in extremely clever ways that simply how it works can blow your mind. This is an example of that, and it all of the involved in such a simple and intuitive way that anyone could understand it. Definitely one of the best I've seen.

    Technology is a tool and its up to the people how they use it. Parents can use programs like to protect their kids from harmful/malicious websites, but they can also use it to restrict/censor useful information and educational materials. All I can do is to hope that the parents are wise enough to know what's best for their kids.

    BTW, there are even some contries that block these websites, so its good to have tools like to circumvent this censorship.

    True, backups are important. One of the main reason people use cloud services is cause they think their data is safer on the cloud than their local computers.

    And its good to hear you do regular backups at trom.

    I know that providers like , , etc. don't provide bitwarden, despite the fact that password management is very important. So I always assumed this was the reason behind it, that was my best guess.
    @alex

  28. @[email protected]
    Wait, are you gonna start a public instance of bitwarden ?

    afaik, I think yours might be the only non official instance available.

    I think the reason behind this is that people/organizations are not willing to take responsibility for the protection of other's passwords. Like, if the server data got corrupted by an accident, people would be more worried about loosing their passwords than, say, loosing their friendica account. I think that's why or doesn't have bitwarden 🤔
