-= We hoped we never had to do this but here we are and we now have to do this. =-

American trans humans are under threat and like in 1930s Germany, they now have to GTFO of their home country.

We have decided we need to collect some information on the possible ways out.

So we made a wiki.

a joint with annotations: normal weed, and gunpowder, towards the end

today is the only day you can legally do this in the uk

put some strawberry jam in my porridge this morning

need a very calm rest of the day, lest i succumb to the excitement

Looks like #Bitwarden is asking for a fork.

does it count if i put a teabag inside the kettle and a http response on a post-it note?

hacked my kettle

can make even hotter tea at a slightly slower speed

oh wow, even better!!

there's a feed for that! bsky.app/profile/skyf...

the ability to determine when a plane taking off at the local airport is a boeing by the engines screeching as though they're threatening to detach and fall from the sky

it's @oggcamp.bsky.social eve!

will keep you posted :D

Wapping Dock, Liverpool. Dockside buildings with a ferris wheel in the background, their lights reflecting in the still water.

I'm currently building something which combines data from solar flares and coronal mass ejections to generate an advanced notification (approx 24-72h prior).

Then using solar wind data, to can then issue updated ETA and a more certain notification between 30-60 mins before it impacts Earth.

Most of the notification systems are based on the geomagnetic activity, so can produce notifications even when an aurora isn't likely.

In the case of Earth-based geomagnetic activity alerts (like AuroraWatch) they might even be too late altogether.

No notification there, just me staring at Space Weather Prediction Center data for too long! (Plus some other sources to confirm)

Some websites I like which offer notifications:
AuroraWatchUK - aurorawatch.lancs.ac.uk
SpaceWeatherLive - www.spaceweatherlive.com

Spent hours freezing on a hill in a state of excitement which can only be matched by a child at Christmas.

G4 Geomagnetic Storm - Kp 8
Threshold reached: 17:05 UTC

Sun setting, light fading, excitement astronomical - if you'll pardon the pun.

Approx 15:15 UTC
Coronal Mass Ejection impact at Lagrange 1 @ 809.3 km/sec

Early readings of real-time solar wind:
Heliospheric Magnetic Field: 29nT
Direction: -25nT (South)

Hopefully an aurora of similar intensity to the May solar storms tonight!

Earth-directed X7.1 flare last night and a couple M-class this morning, with few signs of degradation.

Models predict solar mass will reach Earth around

Hopefully some good weather and aurora this weekend!

There used to be a "search this area" button, but recently they've seemingly made searching the area on screen (specifically from the centre co-ords) the default.

I wanted to naively believe it was bad UX, but changing to sort by distance and seeing the store across the road quickly quashed that.

solar activity will resume when morale improves

M1.7 flare from active region 13842 (and its newly formed delta!)

hopefully the lull is ending and aurora chasing can continue - I am ready to get hurt again

they should rename this road memory lane

almost two weeks into titrations of the right meds

replacing the executive function of last resort with regular executive function is more of a game changer than I ever could have imagined

breaking news coming in, we have an exclusive listen: eeeeeeeeeeee

my social graph has mostly migrated I think - just have to hunt folks down and rebuild the links!

cheeky monday morning cloutposting!

migrating to bluesky more permanently, was being held back by the social graph fragmentation 😭

but holy fuck, how is twitter constantly increasing cesspit levels? thought it was bad 6 months ago, but yikes...
