Solar flares are here, everyone unplug your dryer!

Turns out we have exceptionally high solar activity right now, with a category 4 solar flair expected to impact the planet, potentially affecting satellite communications, electronics and power grids.

Of course, if history is any guide the news is absolutely over excited over this, at best those in the northern states may see pretty lights at night.  I was particularly amused this afternoon at a CNN weather person recommending you unplug your dryer just to be safe.  I mean, is that really the most important appliance in his house?  🤣

Also, kind of off topic, if you have binoculars or a telescope with the right solar filters you can catch a glimpse of the dark spots on the sun associated with this CME.  Amazing to imagine that it is about 15-16x wider than the earth.

These solar flares are just our conceited sun showing off.

It thinks the whole world revolves around it!😆

Well, I guess it only has about 4.5 billion years or there abouts left, so we will see who gets the last laugh.

You were the one who insisted on opening that door and going down that road despite the fact that this is an audio forum, not a political flame war forum

 

I spoke in my first post about the stupidity of all wars when all infrastructure are in urgent needs concerning electrical grid ... Gaza or ukraine or vietnamk iraq libya etc... Do you want a list?

Have you read the book "war is a rackett" i suggested by one of the most decorated marines officer ever ?

Are you the Audiogon moderator censorship post master ? instead of erasing my post you attacked me regularly now is it so ? if you are not this audiogon censor then you are an irrational troll mocking everyone you dont like because of their opinion ..You have proved it with your behaviour against asvjerry... Do you remember ?

Yes you remember because after mocking his innocuous post now you cited him as a rational reason justifying your behaviour against him ...

Incredible... You are not ashamed to be read saying such absurd excuses by other people with a brain ? It seems not...

Brownbear sleep with laoman why do you came back with NO REASON and no content in this thread except irrational justification of anormal character attack ?

You are right my friend...😊

I am like this sun...

But i dont attack character of people here...

I discuss with arguments...

I will not lie and pretend that i dont have an ego...

I had one sometimes a big one who flare sometimes ...

Then why not discussing with the sun why attacking his character ?

😊

But anyway you read well through me ...

How could I forget.

What!?  Now you are saying that you do NOT believe in:

Welcome to a Public Forum.

No Cover~No Minimum/Maximum

 

Don't like?

 

Don't remain.

 

Make up your mind!  This constant flip-flopping is not an indicator of good mental health.

 Incredible... You are not ashamed to be read saying such absurd excuses  by other people with a brain ? It seems not...

Your posts have set the shame-bar pretty low.

Have you read the book "war is a rackett" i suggested  by one of the most decorated marines officer ever ?

Maybe you should send a copy to Vlad.

As I typed previously:  unstable.
