Solitary Geyser
Solitary Geyser is a fountain-type geyser in Yellowstone National Park, located above the Upper Geyser Basin. Eruptions last about a minute and are four to eight minutes apart; most eruptions are less than six feet (1.8 m) in height.[2] It is very distinctive with clear blue water underneath and a base that is tinted orange.[3] Solitary Geyser is accessible via the Observation Point loop trail behind Old Faithful.

Originally this geyser was a hot spring known as Solitary Spring, which did not erupt. When water was diverted to a swimming pool, the water level was lowered sufficiently to cause eruptions. Since then the diversion of water has been stopped and the water has returned to its previous level, but eruptions continue.

gollark: ARM is an instruction set. "Traditional CPU[s]" use the x86 instruction set. People argue a lot over which design is best but broadly speaking there doesn't seem to be *that* much difference, although x86 has some advantages like I think greater code density and downsides like variable length instructions being annoying to decode.
gollark: That's not a very valid comparison. But Apple's cores are somewhat better than available x86 ones.
gollark: Apparently they did lose most of their CPU design team to some other company recently, so who knows.
gollark: It's really annoying to me that you can only get the best CPUs with Apple's ridiculous ecosystem and design.
gollark: Anyway, it's a shame the PyTorch Vulkan support doesn't seem to actually be... used for anything.
