why is it that aluminum electrolytic capacitors are marked on the negative side, while tantalum electrolytic capacitors are marked on the positive side? That just seems like a recipe for disaster to me (those tantalum ones tend to catch fire, and aluminum ones pressurize and explode, when you connect them the wrong way)
ah! I found a setting that fixes my problems with auto-collapsed posts. Click the "app settings" button, then go to "collapsed toots" and check the "give collapsed toots an image background" box.
