Wow, That's Interesting

[Nexus Cabler]

I'm wanting to make a miscellaneous thread dedicated to us sharing anything fascinating or cool that we know/find on the internet.

This includes photos, stories, facts, trivia, art. Anything that you can find.

I'll be contributing myself using examples I find from a telegram channel I'm in that usually submits things of this nature.

I know of a church in Newmarket, NH that's been converted into a bar and music venue, and a church in Asheville, NC that's been converted into a recording studio. (Been to both.) Nice to see those old buildings reworked for useful purposes.

Always wondered where the name Bluetooth came from!

My grandmother had a poster of it, I once spent a lot of hours trying to make my own with paper, it was lousy but still a nice memory

Also, it seems spider feet look like paws when zoomed in

Potato chips/crisps were accidently invented when a customer complained to a chef that their fries were too thick. He decided to fry them so much that they were crispy thin. The customer ended up loving them, and it became a worldwide thing from then on.

I just realized, this is Rome as the Romans themselves never saw it, they would be fascinated by it.

I'm not even a Roman, and I'm fascinated by it. It's bigger than most cities in my country! There was also many advanced ideas used in Rome for their time.

Since @ZippyZap mentioned egg colour, there are strong climatic controls on the average egg colour of birds, and they are hypothesised by some scientists to play a role in thermoregulation.

The global distribution of avian eggshell colours suggest a thermoregulatory benefit of darker pigmentation - Nature Ecology & Evolution

A phylogenetically diverse dataset of birds reveals that eggshell pigmentation may have been shaped by thermoregulatory needs, with birds in colder habitats having darker eggs.

I wasn't aware that temperature played such a big role in the shell color. That's really fascinating! It makes me wonder what colors eggs we normally buy may be many years from now with the ongoing changes in our world.
