Disaster struck over night

So i woke up this morning around 5am to the sound of my HOB filter pulling air. Ngl i tried to ignore it at first but when I turned over, I jolted up. My 40 gallon tank was now 20 gallons in the tank, and 20 gallons on my bedroom floor. HALF of the water leaked out (where the white line is). I immediately turned off my filter, then heater (which is probably fried i dont even want to test it) and grabbed towels to try and do damage control and keep the water from spreading…which i failed at theres definitely water everywhere. As I was searching for the source of the leak, I noticed that the towel underneath the tank was completely dry. i then noticed the other half of the air stone I had in there hanging out of the side of the tank. THE AIRSTONE PULLED HALF OF THE WATER OUT OF MY TANK OVERNIGHT😭 Luckily all i have in there is 4 pearl gourami and they all survived. This is definitely a lesson learned. Its now 7am and i am going back to sleep. Ill get a new heater later.

Can someone dumb this down for me?

I felt the need to get an iPad. I just bought the A-16 one. But I noticed this little thing in the comparisons after buying. In the picture it says it has a 6 core cpu, while the a-16 has only 5. I noticed the 10th gen has less storage 64 gb, vs the a16 one at 128. Did I make a mistake by spending more when I could have gotten the previous generation for cheaper. Everything spec wise looks so similar. And apologies, I’m not a very tech person…

Pixel watch makes me do math to tell time

The world clock on my watch tells me 3 digit times past the hour mark but it's always correct 🫡 (it's supposed to be 6:58 AM but apparently it's 118 minutes past 5)

Hardwood Floor Wood Type?

(Ignore the fact that the red drawing looks like a private part lol)

Does anyone know what kind of wood this is (oak, maple, etc.)? We got some pretty gnarly scratches (outlined in red) in the floor today and I'm trying to figure out the best way to repair them without having to sand everything down. Any ideas would be so appreciated!

Thank you! 🙏🏻
