I don’t think there’s an easy way to do that in Firefox. Or at least it doesn’t give you information such as last visited time.
Oh, a genet !! They live in the forests of Mayotte, I’ve seen exactly one live before, she was crossing a road in town, around dusk. It’s weird because she looked so much like a cat (same overall size), but thinner and longer, and her walk was super straight, like felines do when they’re approaching prey and trying to stay low, you know. You could have mistaken her for a cat on a picture… but the way she moved was a total callout.
I have a cat now, very long and thin also, whom I affectionately call “little genet”. Heheh
They’re peculiar little critters :3
Mine:
- Pharmacogenomics
- Bo-Katan Kryze
- Katee Sackhoff
- The Alienist
- dd (Unix)
In a fun piece of trivia, I was looking up Katee Sackhoff because I was trying to find out who did the voice for Bitch Pudding on Robot Chicken and then laughed my ass off when I realized it was the same lady who played Bo-Katan Kryze in The Mandalorian. I really need a Robot Chicken sketch with Bo-Katan going all Bitch Pudding on the Mando now. BLAM!
If you were able to see what IP addresses had visited a Wikipedia page, would you be able to take the lists here, assume a reasonable time period going back, and identify uniquely which addresses had visited all 5 (or more) pages listed by each commenter?
Lucky you can’t, I guess?

This thing for a DIY air filter because I saw it here yesterday or two days ago
Looks interesting, might have to try it.
Fight Oligarchy tour, The Limits to Growth (haven’t actually read it), quicksort, La Marseilles and Borzoi (is it worth it?).
I just checked out the article about the active volcano in Réunion Island, named Le Piton de la Fournaise. That’s because I am staying there this month and hoping to catch some lava (not with my hands, duh. I will use a bucket).
https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piton_de_la_FournaiseFrom there I read about the Deccan Trapps, a large western part of the indian subcontinent that was pretty much formed by serial lava flows about 60MY ago. Then I was led to the article about LIPs (large igneous provinces), and I’m still falling down that rabbit hole as we speak. Fascinating stuff

In case you were wondering:
The Yellowstone Volcano Observatory monitors volcanic activity and does not consider an eruption imminent.
Interestingly, the buildup of magma causes the plateau to be uplifted by about 1 in. per year on average, which is one of the ways we monitor it. NASA studied how we could go about preventing an imminent eruption by cooling the magma, but another scientist said we could accidentally trigger it by trying. We may have to wait for something else for our next extinction event though. Yellowstone going off again soon would be a bit ahead of schedule.
Most of the other articles were just fleetingly topical to a conversation or book or something. Cymothoa exigua is interesting though. It’s a fish parasite that severs the tongue of its host and effectively replaces it. I think I looked at it from another thread where people were posting their favorite deep sea animals.
The fact that oxygen may have shot up to modern levels really early on for a bit fascinates me in particular.
I wanted to know the difference between them because I was drawing digitally and changed the color picker settings.
I was wondering why we forget stuff when walking into a different room sometimes.
I don’t remember—but I know the compose key is useful.
I was looking at different spins of Fedora Linux, and saw the Budgie version, which I hadn’t heard of before.
Saw a post on Lemmy about recent protests in the US so I went and checked how big protests were.
It was Father’s Day in some places, but not where I live, so I was curious about Father’s Day dates.
