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.

Now I kind of want to have a daily Lemmy thread where we read and discuss a random Wikipedia article as a community.

• HSL and HSV

I wanted to know the difference between them because I was drawing digitally and changed the color picker settings.

• Doorway effect

I was wondering why we forget stuff when walking into a different room sometimes.

• Compose key

I don't remember—but I know the compose key is useful.

• Budgie (desktop environment)

I was looking at different spins of Fedora Linux, and saw the Budgie version, which I hadn't heard of before.

• List of protests and demonstrations in the United States by size

Saw a post on Lemmy about recent protests in the US so I went and checked how big protests were.

• Father's Day

It was Father's Day in some places, but not where I live, so I was curious about Father's Day dates.

My wife sent me Andrees Arctic Balloon Expedition. From there, the rabbit hole into Svalbard was self-inflicted.

And I'm pretty sure a bunch of other pages related to loops and quasigroups. I don't still have them open, though.
