I don't remember all of the details, but I thought it was essentially the water's surface tension that foots the energy bill when climbing a paper towel or a capillary in a tree.
The surface of fluids like water are unhappy. Molecules on the surface would much rather be deep in the fluid because on the surface they have "dangling" Van der Waals & polar bonds to one side. You can calculate the potential energy of the surface due to all of those dangling weak bonds, & that's the energy that is used to climb a capillary (the energy isn't free).
I could be misremembering though, I admit. School was many years ago...
Nice clothes. She likes Free People, Anthropology, & Sundance. I try to choose a dress or jacket or something I think she might like (always get a gift receipt though!)
Small things. Sounds. The temperature of the air. The fact that my side isn't hurting right now. The kids costumes who were just trick or treating at my house.
If it's a topic I'm super passionate about & there's no community on Lemmy then sure. But I'm not going to start a new Lemmy community every time I want to post a random dog photo or whatever.
In ye old'n times we would leave the console on as a stop-gap way to save the game between in-game save opportunities. Because ye old'n times game design philosophy believed that the added difficulty of crazily separated save points was "fun".
In modern times I sleep the hardware if I expect to be back within <24 hrs, and power off if I expect to be longer.
(Thank god for saving memory states in emulators!!! Elsewise I probably wouldn't play retro games at all.)
Ugh, you're right! I didn't realize. I'm going to give SpamBlocker a try instead. I just downloaded and flipped through the options and it looks better than "Yet Another Call Blocker" anyway.
Looks like the F-droid version is way behind, because you can see on their GitLab page that the project is still maintained. It'd be best to get the app directly through GitLab I suppose, or add an F-droid repo that has a more up-to-date version.
I use Yet Another Call Blocker. It has a custom block list you can use to block a specific number.
The block list also supports wildcard characters, which is my favorite feature! I use it to block swaths of numbers (much of my spam comes from the state I used to live in, so I block those area codes).
Joplin is FOSS & supports live LaTeX. The editor is markdown & you use
$
for inline LaTeX &$$
for full line.They've got both desktop & mobile versions. One of my favorite apps.
