Whether it was explained differently, or a foundational bit of knowledge made it click, how did you finally understand?

No politics – I'm thinking along the lines of math/programming, language, crafts, etc.

I have a few spare glass bottles and want to explore what decoration I can make with them, without just painting outside them.

Preferably safe, in case of an accidental breakage or leak. Preferably indefinite shelf-life.

Some ideas:

• Density layering experiments ('rainbow in a jar', maybe suspending an upside-down toy boat in a dense clear liquid with a blue watery liquid on-top)
• Phosphorescent liquids to glow in the dark (pref with no UV lamp needed)
• The oil+water+antacid+food coloring lava lamp, but the effect is probably too short-lasting to have running for a few hours

Let's say, I sit down in a mall, open my laptop and connect to a secured mobile hotspot. Then I do it again next week after a reboot. What information would a nearby shop or a passive malicious hacker be able to find about my device? Does my device send out identifying information before joining, like a MAC address? Is this persistent, or randomized?

I intentionally haven't specified a distro, so if something only applies to some network managers, give some details.

Bonus points: what about Android phones?

I'm not pointing at the post this links to, or the reply I've linked to, but the surrounding context, including replies from the moderators telling them they're not welcome.

But seriously, I haven't seen this problem (since Wolfballs died), and it's probably because I rarely look at All instances or scroll to the bottom of huge threads. Or maybe .ml has blocked where these bigots hang out? I really don't know, just guessing here.-

I recently discovered the Banana Ball exhibition baseball games, and their custom ruleset, featuring limitations, crowd participation mechanics and special roles among other things.

This reminded me of (and it's an derivative game rather than an alternate ruleset) Three-Sided Football, which, among other things, is a Situationist, philosophical and sociological rabbit-hole.

I also recall dark chess, a chess variant with line-of-sight mechanics, to emulate the fog of war. There are thousands of chess variants stretching back a thousand years, this is just one of the first I learned of which really interested me.

Even the patches of liberalism are below standard background radiation levels.

I believe that videos like this could be a valuable tool as they'd be more acceptable to the Americans who need to hear it, compared to videos made by those they might dismiss as progressives.

Full 30 min film: A Welcome to Britain, 1943

After being reminded of incidents where US soldiers started riots in allied countries due to racism (UK, Aus, NZ), I wondered if there were any surviving videos briefing soldiers on race relations outside the US.

This pub clip is not about race at all, but I found it interesting, and as someone who has seen many a stereotypical "loud American" tourist, relatable.
