#Security weirdness of the day: I followed a link to #Instagram, and it told me they'd noticed an unusual login.

Originally shared by Astronomy Picture of the Day (APoD) A Solar Filament Erupts Image Credit: NASA 's GSFC, SDO AIA Team https://apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap180916.html What's happened to our Sun? Nothing very unusual -- it just threw a filament. Toward the middle of 2012, a long standing solar filament suddenly erupted into space producing an energetic Coronal Mass Ejection (CME). The filament had been held up for days by the Sun's ever changing magnetic field and the timing of the eruption was unexpected. Watched closely by the Sun-orbiting Solar Dynamics Observatory, the resulting explosion shot electrons and ions into the Solar System, some of which arrived at Earth three days later and impacted Earth's magnetosphere, causing visible aurorae. Loops of plasma surrounding an active region can be seen above the erupting filament in the featured ultraviolet image. Although the Sun is now in a relatively inactive state ...
I have used that approach on cars and houses. Start with something cheap so you can find out what is important to you and don't buy for your perceived future needs.
ReplyDeleteI did cheat a bit on that with cars about # of child seats that would fit while we were expecting our 3rd child and with the second house wrt. school options but I consider that pragmatism :)
