I'm curious if anyone here knows a frequency generator app or program (mobile or PC) that actually produces the frequencies it says it does. I have no way to test if they're accurate or not, though I do always feel like the ones I try aren't quite putting out the tones they say they are.

I know that handwriting notes is said to be a better way of memorizing them, though I'd like to know if anyone has any methods on how to memorize typed notes like math notes better.

I saw something odd today. It was something that looked like a spore of some kind to me at first, but I looked a little closer and it seemed like some kind of insect. Looked like some kind of ball with long white spikes or strands coming out from it at every direction first. Does anyone know what this could be or what kind of spore/seed it could be I mistook for an insect?

I've been studying functions, and while doing so I decided to take a spin on the machine with an input and output description and describe it like a woodchipper to myself. Can saying the domain is like the types of wood you have on hand, the codomain is like all existing wood types, and the range is like the woodchips you get from the types of wood you have on hand a decent way of describing it? The site I was looking at also described it as the domain being like the buttons you press on a...

I'm wondering something. I'll start off by saying that I'm aware a virus could spread to partitions or from an external drive because the drive reads your other files, and that a VM or separate PC entirely would probably be the best practice. I've used Ventoy .vhd boot to put windows 11 on an external SSD, and there's an option during set up to keep the OS from detecting/accessing internal drives. Can this be used to add a bit of security when using software with potentially hidden malware like...

I remember @Anchorite saying something about getting around a large planet having normal gravity in his worldbuilding project, something about the surface being further away from the core. What exactly was this? I'm wanting to have the planet in my project be quite a bit larger than Earth, but still have similar gravity.

I found a relative's old blackberry. The charging symbol shows up when I plug it in. Hopefully it turns on. Edit: It works. It won't seem to connect to a wifi network. If I can't get it to, it should make a fine repurposed camera, video camera, audio recorder, and mp3 player at least. It makes me wish blackberry would try coming back with some small phones like this again with a new non-android OS a little. I took the back off and it said it was a Curve 9310. Does anybody know if there's...

[https link] Does anyone know what that intro is from? The Texas Chainsaw Massacre movie is coming to my mind, but I didn't see anything like this in the radio station scene in the second one.
