This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

"Is it in a serious, reliable publication" is indeed a good first question to ask yourself when trying to determine if something is scientific information or just some rando's personal opinion.

Just to check, you definitely use the same criterion when you read about a dude measuring stuff with a multimeter, right?
