This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?
Just post some stuff and don't spam.
I recently stayed in an apartment that didnt have central air so I created a corsi-rosenthal box since the smoke from the Canadian wildfires were so bad.
After 30 days of continuous use, with very minimal periods of it being turned off, this is what the filters look like!
It's disgusting yet also so satisfying to see the filters get darker from debris, dust, and dirt.
Edit: typos
This couple that was in the same train as me, left their seats to change the diaper of their little baby.
Not only did they go away from their luggage, but they left two phones and a large tablet visible and unattended for quite some time!

It's a tube of glue that came with a phone repair kit. Thumb for scale.
I literally couldn't read it with the naked eye. Not that you'd want to, because once i saw the picture i realized that it's gibberish

It lets people know violence cannot change the balance of power.
I just got a new laptop today and when I saw the ssd it blew my mind. Most of my old drives are like the second from left and it's what I think of as a normal drive, buying a standard ssd still feels small to me. But look at that tiny thing to the right! It's the size of a postage stamp!
Assuming I managed to find the right specs (it is a Microscience hh-1050): The monster on the far left is from 1990, holds 40mb, read/write of 0.625mb/s, and weighs almost exactly 2kg. The baby on the far right I got in the mail today, holds 1tb, read/write of 5150mb/s, and weighs about 2.85 grams.
So we're looking at 25,000 times more storage, 8,240 times faster, and 1/700th the weight! And the one on the right is just 1tb, they make one that same model but 2tb. I can barely believe it exists even though I'm literally holding it in my hands.
The tree is totally normal, but there was a large branch cut off a long time ago because it was blocking the sidewalk. A small branch is growing out of that cut stump and all those leaves have the left half lobed and the right half toothed. No idea if its a graft, or just natural.
