My favorite is https://solarham.net/
Unfortunately, I have no idea how to understand what any of it means. But it's pretty much all the raw data you could want on solar activity.

I'm also skeptical.
That article is dated yesterday as well, so an even earlier prediction.
I've checked https://www.swpc.noaa.gov/products/forecast-discussion and it looks to be saying it should remain relatively quiet into mid next week.
Maybe there will be something - but my usual sources are currently all pointing to "meh"
The FDA is being asked to look into Logan Paul's energy drink, which has the caffeine of 6 Coke cans
I'm conflicted on this.
The adult side of me wants to have this info on labels/menus so I can make informed choices.
The side of my that used to be in high school knows that kids will buy the highest number for bragging rights among friends.
I'm open to suggestions for alternatives for functional part 3D modeling.
I use Fusion 360 because it's free for hobbyists and it's features for functional 3D modeling blow away any other software I've tried in the open source/free/low cost market.
Fusion 360 handles parameters beautifully, has a very flexible timeline editing system, and generally is very forgiving about how you use the software.
I'd happily pay up to $120/year for hobby use. It's that good. I can't afford $600 a year for a hobby tool though.
The closest alternative I know is FreeCAD. It has a notable following, but compared to Fusion it's slow, clunky, buggy, and fights you every step of the way you use it. In FreeCAD, there is usually one right way to do something, and dozens of wrong ways that all end up with you having to redo tons of work.
TLDR: I've created all sorts of useful things in Fusion. All I've created in FreeCAD is tears.
Is this a good or bad thing?
This is a nightmare scenario.
It's bad enough when you get something cloud connected and the company disappears, leaving you with expensive e-waste.
Now it's in your body and you likely have to pay to remove it (plus surgery risks) or leave it there knowing no one will help cover costs if there are complications from it.

Hrm - would you want federated wikis? What's the benefit vs wikis run independently?
For example, wikipedia has a corner on encyclopedia type knowledge. No reason to federate as the central moderation on Wikipedia seems to work well. To be honest, I wouldn't trust encyclopedia type information from another wiki site as I don't know how active the community is there to maintain the accuracy of the information.
Then there's other wikis I know about like for games (thinking fandom.com) - but again not really a reason to federate between those that I can think of.
To be honest, my gut reaction is that I want fewer wiki sources, not more.
Ok but to balance it: it forces you to confront your own on the topic as well.
That would force you to selectively use it since often times reality is somewhere between our personal view of it and other opposing views.
Chose the wrong situation and you'll both be crying in the corner with shatter worlds. Chose the ones where the people are truly disconnected from reality and perhaps you'll change their lives - hopefully for the better.
