This has happened on two devices with dual-screen setups recently and I have no idea what the cause is: whenever I expand an tool in my toolbar to select other nested entries within it, the expanded menu/dialog opens in the other monitor instead of just expanding to the right side of the toolbar. When I moved the main window, thinking that it's just one of those "Photoshop shows the dialog" on the original/main display, the expanded dialog just.... switches to the other monitor.

A lot of high profile saline lakes in Canada seem to be from SK. Is there something about the province geography or geology compared to adjacent provinces to explain this phenomenon?

I have some big folders recovered from a hard drive, but there are damaged images (in either jpg or raw) scattered in these folder. Some programs that index files like Winmerge can detect differences in file binaries between damaged and undamaged files, so I was wondering if there is a dedicated program that can scan for damaged images?

Are userscripts any different from extensions in terms of fingerprinting and managing the attack surface of your browser? I have always loved tweaking my browser for funsies but have been trying to cut back on my extensions due to increasing privacy/security concerns in recent years.

I have about 30 custom, shareable maps on the much-forgotten My Maps. Degoogling aside, it just makes sense to migrate given the service has been one foot into the graveyard for about a decade now.

My inertia is currently because (1) I don't know how to export all my maps quickly and efficiently and (2) I don't know which supposed free alternative could import them seamlessly. Any help on either point (1) or point (2) is appreciated for future planning.

Topic: Model exporting and sharing.

I don't do actual modelling but do use and convert models a lot. For viewing and sharing a model with texture, Apple's USDZ seems very convenient since it is only one file. I am struggling to find an equivalent, single-file format for Windows - the usual format I do for Windows so far is an .obj with a linked texture file.

Does anyone know a USDZ-like file format that can be viewed on Windows? Many thanks.

China - India - Southeast Asia is supposedly where orange originated based on genomic evidence, with ancient China potentially having the oldest written records about it (which is why I picked a Chinese sub to ask this). There are various strands/hybrids in Asia that are still green or green-yellow when they fully ripen, so I suspect they represent the ancestral condition of the fruit. When did ripe orange take on the "orange" color, then? And did it first happen in China or somewhere else (e.g., Europe)?

From a recent Twitter thread: Windscribe claimed that its extension can replace uBO, Ghostery, PrivacyBadger, ClearURLs, and HTTPS Everywhere. I like Windscribe but this is a bit of a bold claim, especially versus uBO whose full version (not uBO lite) does replace the remaining top 4.
