Check your web history for “wikipedia”, what are the most recent 5-10 Wikipedia pages you have read?
I don’t really like this list, because it’s more sorted by the last tab I closed than the last tab I visited, which is not really the same.

I’m curious how 1840 came up.
it’s a number progression, 1839 came before it
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_problems_in_loop_theory_and_quasigroup_theory
And I’m pretty sure a bunch of other pages related to loops and quasigroups. I don’t still have them open, though.
My wife sent me Andrees Arctic Balloon Expedition. From there, the rabbit hole into Svalbard was self-inflicted.
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.

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.
