Ok... Here goes...

A meteorite is a meteor that makes it through earth's atmosphere without being completely burned up. Most meteorites can be classified into 3 distinct groups. Iron meteorites are the most abundant. Iron does not easily burn up in the atmosphere, thus increasing the chances that an iron meteorite would reach the surface. Iron meteorites are comprised of mostly iron and nickel, along with smaller amounts of other metals. The second category of meteorite is the stony meteorites. These are rare because the stone usually burns away easily in the atmosphere. These are also hard to find since they tend to blend in well with other stones. These meteorites are mostly made of silicates. Finally, there is the group of Stony-Irons. These are made up of roughly equal amounts of iron-nickel, and silicate. These differ in appearance from iron lumps protruding from a rocky base, or a stone matrix surrounding an iron meteorite.

Generally, meteorites were originally rather large chunks of debris. Some may have even been smaller asteroids. Some meteorites are never totally recovered. They smash into the earth's crust causing immense impact craters. A well-known impact crater is called Barringer Crater. This immense crater is located in Arizona. This crater is thought to have been caused by a 150-foot, 300000-ton Nickel-iron meteorite striking the earth at 40000 miles per hour. The force of the resulting explosion was equivalent to 20 million tons of TNT. This environmental disaster happened more than 50000 years ago. Over 1000 meteorites weighing over 100 grams strike earth each year. This crater raises a question, not of if, but when this will happen again.

Wow, that was...long...

      As long as Manifest v2 extensions keep working. I always enable compact mode from about:config. I hope I won't have to switch to LibreWolf or WaterFox anytime soon.
    • Threads scales past half a billion users, brings deeper community and feed controls

      By Fiza Ali · Posted

      Threads scales past half a billion users, brings deeper community and feed controls by Fiza Ali Meta has announced Threads crossing a major milestone of 500 million monthly active users. And, at the heart of this growth sits something simple: communities. From books to basketball, parenting to music, Threads says its rise has been powered by people clustering around shared interests and, in turn, giving the platform its identity. In response, the platform is expanding its Communities feature beyond beta and introducing a set of new tools designed to make participation easier and more engaging. A redesigned Communities Hub will now appear in the main navigation menu, allowing users to jump between groups without leaving their feed. Each community will also receive a distinct Community Icon, giving them clearer visual identity and making them easier to recognise across the platform. Then there’s Community Progress, which is a kind of live gauge showing how close a topic is to becoming a full-fledged community, alongside guidance on how users can contribute to its development. In addition, Meta is also expanding its Community Champions programme, recognising more users who actively contribute to community engagement. And then things go more local; Local Communities is already available in 100 countries, including North America, South America, Asia, and Europe but are now rolling out with native-language tags starting in Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan. The platform is also expanding Live Chats to more communities in the coming weeks, adding features such as co-hosting and the ability to quote moments directly into users’ feeds. Beyond communities, Meta is tightening the loop between users and their feeds. Earlier this year came "Dear Algo," a feature that lets people tell Threads what they want more or less of. Now it’s being paired with a new tool, "Your Algo." It allows people to adjust how frequently certain topics appear, with options lasting one, three, or seven days. Meta says these preferences remain private and can be managed alongside “Dear Algo” in a unified settings hub. The rollout begins in the US, Canada, UK, Australia, and New Zealand. Finally, the company says these changes are part of an ongoing effort to refine Threads based on user feedback and that further updates will continue as the platform evolves.
