If you get enough points on one of the more niche and less toxic StackExchange sites, it'll also let you comment, vote, etc. network-wide. I had gotten most of my points by asking and answering things about Blender workflow/API&#x

Heat, stress, and light will probably break it down mechanically over time no matter how diligent you are about reusing or recycling it. At the very least, this should hopefully mean that all those scary endocrine-disrupting and bioaccumula

If it's just for your family, then depending on what you need, you could try OnlyOffice— Either self-hosted, or SAAS. They use MS formats as their first-class native format, IIRC, so compatibility is pretty great. Nextcloud also advert

IIRC, hydrogen gas will basically detonate at any mixture ratio in oxygen or in air. Quick search says 4% to 75% to burn in air, and 18% to 60% to fully detonate. By contrast it looks like kerosene will only burn at between 0.7% to 5% in ai

> When we lean too much on tech, does our brain atrophy? Probably, yeah. It's been suggested and shown that brain size took a pretty significant hit roughly coinciding with the invention of writing systems and so on. This link is to
