As a gardener I have noticed that most types of insects tend to visit as many flowers as possible. None seem to show a vast preference. I know that's not what the data shows but it's my experience.

I was talking about nectar robbing by moths, butterflies don't do it. And butterflies only have a tube with a tongue, they don't have opposing jaws or a typical mouthpart. Moths are some of many nectar robbers who will cut a hole or slit in the bottom part of the nectar bearing parts of plants and drink that directly rather than playing by 'the rules' and going down the flower past the reproductive organs. Thus getting the benefit of the nectar without abiding by the "rules" that ensure the plant's pollentation.

Moths have mouthparts, butterflies generally don't. They have a specialized nectar sucking tube type organ with a "tongue" in it.

Moths can rob flowers, which means they cut a small hole inside the bottom of the flower's nectar reservoir and then lap it up. Butterflies can't cut flowers.

It had to be said, it's true. Mirrorless camera displays give off light, the screen is brighter than ambient light. It's can't get dim enough preserve night vision if you're using a telescope for instance. You can shoot in very low light with the high ISO speeds available on a modern camera but if you ruin your night vision you lose awareness of everything but what you're shown in the finder, just in general. I'm sure you can think of others.

It would be better to boot straight into emacs because it's already a whole OS.

MS-DOS is still widely used in embedded, MS still sells it to OEMs. There is also the Free and Open Freedos. Maybe you have a small program you developed on Linux and maintain on several OS's, and you don't want to go through the nightmare of maintaining a DOS port as well.

Nobody wants this, it's a big pain in the ass.

You can't beat a mirror, it's just not possible especially in low light situations. Discplay screen based digital cameras will always be worse for many users. It's fine as an option but it's not killing the shutter just yet.

It's just a contraction of cookery, much like Wooster is a contraction of Worcestshire. Just throw out the unneeded, middle syllables.

Even DOS and VMS had ed, I'm sure other OSs too.

Unix has always had comprehensive online manuals since the very earliest days. As a kid I was told how to ls and cd and use man and apropos and that was all I needed.

This would be good if it was Free Software. I just don't see any reason to give this long-obsolete and moribund system any mindshare if I'm just sharecropping for some company as a beta tester. It's the same reason I avoid Mac OS and Windows and the rest - no need to use proprietary software when the Free stuff is as good or (for my purposes) better.

They didn't jam anything but the WebSDR receiver.
