kuontom@kbin.socialto politics @lemmy.world•PANIC: Florida takes huge economic hit as conventions reject anti-woke agenda7·2 years agoIs this the fOrMiDaBlE iNtElLiGeNcE you referenced in your anti-LGBTQ+ ad, Ron? That lost you millions of dollars worth of business to pander to a bunch of internet trolls that probably aren’t even old enough to vote? sigh
kuontom@kbin.socialOPto/kbin meta@kbin.social•A starting guide to kbin.social + support thread for new users1·2 years agoWhile I understand the fediverse may pose a learning curve, please note it does not refer to a forum, which is why there are introduction pages. As for Reddit being straight forward, it’s been developing for about 18 years now. Kbin in comparison is about two months into development.
kuontom@kbin.socialOPtoSpace@kbin.social•The James Webb Space Telescope captures image of Saturn and its rings in all their shiny glory2·2 years agoAn excerpt:
Methane gas absorbs almost all the sunlight falling on the atmosphere at this picture’s specific infrared wavelength (3.23 microns). As a result, Saturn’s familiar striped patterns aren’t visible because the methane-rich upper atmosphere blocks our view of the primary clouds. Instead, Saturn’s disk appears dark, and we see features associated with high-altitude stratospheric aerosols, including large, dark, and diffuse structures in Saturn’s northern hemisphere that don’t align with the planet’s lines of latitude. Unlike Saturn’s atmosphere, its rings lack methane, so at this infrared wavelength, they are no darker than usual and thus easily outshine the darkened planet.

kuontom@kbin.socialto Moving to: m/AskMbin!@kbin.social•Is anyone using Google search less than before?0·2 years agoGoogle Search has been accusing me of being a robot a lot lately, making me solve a bajillion captchas. So I’ve stopped using search engines entirely. I’ve bookmarked a lot of the sites I regularly visit and have realized I don’t really need Google, apart from for getting the correct links to said websites because I can’t remember their .orgs and .coms.
Damn it really persists. Good one
