I don’t know if it fits, but I find it interesting. First of all, some banks have their own payment methods for online payments, and this is one of them. You may encounter it as alternative to VISA/MasterCard on some e-shops, for example when buying a train ticket at ZSSK.

Interesting infographic design

I guess I should create a “very interesting” community?

Brine pools are super-salty underwater lakes on the ocean floor, dense enough to stay separate from surrounding seawater

Webb surveyed nearly 9,000 star clusters across four nearby galaxies, revealing how massive clusters form faster within stellar birth clouds.

I could feel the heat coming off it when I stood next to the repaved section. They didn’t repave the parking area at the edge. Opened to traffic again, seems firm enough to drive on at 160⁰F.

Who knew there was a championship in flat packing.

Japan’s Minister of Defense Shinjirō Koizumi posed with a cardboard drone on Monday during a meeting with drone manufacturer AirKamuy. The AirKamuy 150 is a cheap pre-fab cardboard drone meant to die on the battlefield and it comes shipped in a flatpack like an IKEA shelf.

I made a video on my YT channel this week about google alternatives, and found a site called Marginalia Search, based in Sweden, that focuses on non-commercial content. That choice in this digital ecosystem means you get a lot of weird, old, and interesting stuff when you use it.

Edit: Just realized the correct name for the tree is actually maple.

This is an organic situation like, im just posting. Let’s talk Disasters

It was a rainy day and I took a small broken off piece home for some macro-photography. This lichen, also called coral lichen or Cladia retipora has a slow-growing, highly absorbent lattice-like structure. The colonies expand at only a few millimeters a year, and normally I find little buds about the size of a golf ball, so to find a granite outcrop with 100+ domes each about the size of a basketball hemisphere was pretty rare. It had just rained too, so they have absorbed a ton of water. In the close-up you can see how the structure interacts with the surface tension of water to hold water droplets within the lattice itself, not just absorbed into the body of the lichen.
