"In the jungles of Borneo, there live soldier #ants called Colobopsis explodens that defend themselves by exploding themselves up. 
Victims are mostly small female workers. Larger workers grow a giant head. When an enemy threatens the nest, the worker ant sticks its large head into the opening, effectively blocking the entrance. These workers are also sterile females." #trivia #nature #animals

TOMORROW NIGHT - I will be hosting Star Trek Trivia at the first-ever #StellarFest!
Come join us, prove your Trek knowledge, and win some prizes!
Somewhat oddly, my local community centre is having a #trivia game this afternoon focusing on #composers of the #20thCentury. Needless to say, I intend to participate. Wish me luck. #music
🅻🅸🅲🅴 (
) Let's play a game! The rules are simple: Tell me something about yourself.
1. It should be a fun or weird, *and* trivial.
2. It should be substantially different from recent answers.
3. We alternate turns.
4. Use #TellAlice so they're easy to find.
- Since we have N players, you can reply to anyone in the thread as your turn.
- You can respond to someone else's answer, but you have to take your own turn in the same reply.

I'll start.
The first time I went to a Japanese restaurant was with friends in highschool, and I ate the ball of wasabi thinking it was part of the sushi. It still comes up sometimes.

#Space #trivia: every #LunarEclipse
coincides with the time of a full moon
, by definition. The #Moon can only pass into Earth's shadow when it is opposite from the Sun, which is the same position as the full moon. However, there isn't always a lunar eclipse at every full moon because it's only when the orbits align, up to twice a year. There is no lunar eclipse when the full moon misses Earth's shadow passing above or below. Next lunar eclipse Mar 13-14, 2025. #astronomy #eclipse #science

#Space #trivia: Every #LunarEclipse is subtly different. Actual shades of red of the Moon in a lunar eclipse vary because, in the shadow of the Earth, the only light shining there is refracted through Earth's atmosphere. It's projecting all of Earth's
sunrises
and sunsets
onto the Moon at once. Variations in particulate matter such as smoke
or volcanic ash
in our atmosphere make the exact shade of red unique each time. #astronomy #Moon #eclipse #science #STEM #education

#Space #trivia: each #LunarEclipse is a chance for anyone to see the curvature of the Earth without travel to high altitude on an aircraft or spacecraft. You can see for yourself that the Earth is round from the shadow we cast on the Moon, which is not the same as the regular phases of the Moon. #astronomy #Moon #eclipse #science #STEM #education
It looks like we had a pretty even split of answers for when #ilovefs day was first started! We wish it had started as early the '90s, but the very first I Love Free Software Day was celebrated in 2012.
Thank you for playing #trivia with us this week 
we hope you found lots of ways to celebrate why you love free software last week.
And we're back with today's #ILoveFreeSoftwareDay #trivia question!
Which major web server software is released as free software?
Thanks to #FSFE for today's trivia question 
Answer will be posted here tomorrow.
Y'all are doing really good at these #trivia questions! 89% chose the correct answer (Freeware) to yesterday's question "What term is used to describe software that is free of cost but NOT free as in freedom?"
We have two more trivia questions left to celebrate #ilovefs, so there's still time to show how much you know #freesoftware
Only two more days until #ilovefs day! 
Most of us are pretty familiar with what's considered #freesoftware, but what about the term used to describe software that is free of cost but NOT free as in freedom?
As with the past two days, we'll be posting the answer to this #trivia question tomorrow.
Y'all are on a roll with these trivia questions! 94% of you chose the correct answer for yesterday's #Trivia question "Which software license was originally written for artwork, documentation, and other non-software materials?"
Creative Commons License is the answer!
Thank you to everyone who played - we hope you're having as much fun with the trivia questions as we are
