I’m a bit above your average millennial. No tech background, just figuring things out on my own whenever shit goes wrong. I know how to very generally diagnose the issue and then search for the relevant troubleshooting instructions. I’m the easy phone call that your IT guy likes getting, i.e. not a complete idiot lol. I know what a VPN is and how to pirate games and movies. I managed to figure out the Fediverse!

Idk about scientifically, but I’ve had spiders at my place that seemed like they had different personalities. For example, one was smaller but liked to traverse around and build lots of webs. He’d disappear and turn up in another corner of the room. He tried all the corners except for the one by the shower cuz it was too wet. Kinda spazzy. I called him Napoleon. Meanwhile there was another spider (same species) in the room that was super chill, just hanging out on the same web for months. Not bothered by anything, even when Napoleon built a web in his corner. I dubbed this one The Dude lol

In 1861 Scottish mathematical physicist James Clerk Maxwell produced the earliest color photograph, an image of a tartan ribbon, by having it photographed three times through red, blue, and yellow filters, then recombining the images into one color composite. Because of this photograph Maxwell is credited as the founder of the theory of additive color.

You’d probably get away with it lol. Just as long as you don’t do the facial hair to go with it
