That boost I just bumped of the water droplets on a leaf reminds me of a technical word pair people often get wrong.
The words describe materials or surfaces that either repel water or absorb moisture and they are respectively hydrophobic and hygroscopic. The mistake you see a lot is "hydroscopic" which isn't a proper technical term.
The difference is that the latter refers to absorbing moisture, not water, and uses a Greek root to say that.

Recently installed a new app and I started getting popups constantly for git asking me to select a username. Finally figured out that if I set the default username for git credential manager for https, this goes away. #TMYK
git config --global credential.https://github.com.username <YOUR_USERNAME>

I try and use game bar to record a clip on my PC, and get this error:
Game BarRecording isn't workingError: 0x82323673. Press the Xbox button or Windows logo key + G for Game Bar
The solution to this problem is to go into windows settings, then gaming, then captures, then check the "record what happened" check box, which enables this capability. Microsoft does not tell you this in the message or in a support article or by documenting this error code in any way, because they hate you. Anyway, hopefully this helps someone. #TMYK!

Office email subject lines are important, and should summarize the email thread topic for quick readability.
- Bad: "Question about this Jira"
- Better: "New desktop packages March 3"
- Best: "Installing this bossware is bollocks, please respond!!"See? Subtle changes make a world of difference and can help your coworkers find your email needle in a haystack of notifications!

I've always thought of toilets as indestructible, but last night I learned that if a visiting parent of normal size falls against a toilet tank, they can shatter it, immediately flooding the bathroom. Now I know! #tmyk

A process pool is just a regular cess pool that's been licensed for business use.

This morning we decided to trace the breakers in the panel at the new (quite old) house to try and figure out which circuit I should tie into for the tech closet while keeping loads in check.
Fun discovery! @Jillianmarisa’s hair dryer uses 600 watts @ medium heat, low speed. But 1200 @ medium heat, high speed. 600 watts for a fan speed increase doesn’t make sense.
So, today I learned fan speed increase also increases the power to the heat. Which makes sense but isn’t necessarily intuitive. #TMYK

I recently watched a video about Radon mitigation. I always thought the vent pipe and UFO shaped things I occasionally spotted were just rich folks being "extra" with their dryer exhaust. But now I know! #TMYK #LearningEveryDay

The Rio Negro is a tributary [DRINK] of the Amazon, so called because when it joins the Amazon, its clear water looks black compared to the muddy main river.

I live to learn things and improve my vocabulary. Today I learned of the word "caucasity". As in, if a white person posts ludicrous statement X, the only proper response is to comment on "the caucasity of X".

Something y'all youngbloods need to understand is that you better be getting your love in while you can, because nobody wants fifty-year-old dick.
Except other fifty-year-old dicks.
Fact.

Wild, all these years I thought the original James Bond producer Albert Broccoli just had a funny name … turns out his family INVENTED the vegetable in Italy by crossing cauliflower with rabe, immigrated to America at the turn of the century, and made their money growing and selling broccoli 🤯 #tmyk

may have to add "coup" to the filter list because i am sick of that over-dramatic shit people post.
it's not a coup; he won. it sucks, but he won. anyone working for him he is allowing to work for him. he is permitting all of it.
it's not a coup and i'll throw that one on my "insta-mute" list.
just say "tyrannical fascist leadership" or something. you get to have your internet points but also remain accurate.

Today’s TIL is a doozie.
Apparently there are crocodiles native to the U.S. A formerly endangered species of crocs which coexist with alligators in Florida have been downgraded to threatened thanks in part to a nuclear power plant. 🤯
Check it out.

Yesterday I learned that Snoopy isn’t part of the evil mouse empire. And that makes me very happy. Apple TV has licensed the rights to Snoopy TV/movies… For now. But the brand itself has multiple owners, with 20% owned by the Schultz family.

TIL “Bombogenesis” is not the name of a new Sega console.
“Bombogenesis is a meteorological term when the mid-latitude storm undergoes a rapid intensification with at least 24 mbar of central pressure drop in 24 hours.”

Today I learned all about Cara Cara Oranges. From what I gather, they are winter season oranges and folks really like them. I guess I never really bothered to differentiate between orange varieties until today. Except mandarin. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cara_cara_navel #TMYK #TIL #TMYK365

Catchup TIL: I never really paid attention to @flightradar24’s follow feature. Tonight I used it for the first time and it is NICE! Unsure if it’s a premium feature or not, but an excellent #AvGeek tool.

Today's #TMYK 8/365:
Today I learned about a provision in the MASSIVE farm bill that will pay land owners, farmers, and ranchers to place their property in a conservation easement. They still own and farm/ranch the property, but development is off the table.
More of this, please!

Tonight’s #TMYK (6/365) is so cool!
I just learned on the TNC webinar about the 1903 Missouri River flood. The largest flood for our state in recorded history.
One outcome was that pecan seeds were deposited along the floodplain. There is a farm in Brunswick, Missouri still harvesting the nuts from some of those trees.
BONUS: Brunswick, MO is home to the world’s largest pecan. You can visit it. 🤩

Today’s #TMYK (3/365) is also a #PSA: The guidelines for visiting the Trinity test site (location of the first nuclear weapon detonation) have been revised.
Visitors are now permitted only one day per year (used to be two) and the Alamogordo Caravan has been indefinitely canceled. 😭
There is good news, though. Signups are no longer required and it doesn’t seem there’s a cap on attendance.
I know where I plan to be on October 18!

Need to search your own toots? Being on an instance like vmst.io or avgeek.social w/ #ElasticSearch is handy. Search <whatever> from:me.
Alternatively, pull and index an RSS feed of your own timeline. All public #mastodon accounts have a built-in RSS. Just add .rss to the end of the URL. So in my case: vmst.io/@user47.rss #Feditips #fediverse #tmyk #searchable #rss
