Shouldn't the price of gas be about $1 per gallon today? And I expect to get a dozen eggs for about 75¢. I understand the President controls all the prices.

And just like that... looks like my CDC/FDA bots are going to go offline. Anyone know the equivalent agencies in other countries Americans might be able to leverage for similar safety briefs? (Canada? UK? Australia? or translated from elsewhere?) #thedarkages

Now that we have everyone excited about the Mars occultation tomorrow, he is another exciting visitor from space putting on a show as we speak.

Comet C/2024 G3 (ATLAS) is closing in on the Sun for perihelion on Jan 13, ~06:00 UTC.

Currently at mag -3.0, it will brighten to mag -3.6.

But it is difficult to observe from the Northern hemisphere. It will be so even after perihelion, assuming it survives this grazing trip around the Sun.

Astronomer and nightscape photographer Yuri Beletsky today posted yet another gem of an image of comet C/2024 G3 (ATLAS), taken on Jan 19 from the ESO Paranal observatory in the Atacama desert in Chile.

Probably taken using his trusty Canon R6 and a 70 mm lens (mentioned by him).

His images certainly deserve to be featured on NASA APOD.

Comet C/2024 G3 (ATLAS) - A View from an Observatory 😃 I took this image at the ESO Paranal Observatory on January, 19. The comet is setting in the twilight next to one of the auxiliary telescopes (AT). This time, I used a 70mm lens to capture the whole scene. To plan the composition I used @planitphoto . I hope you enjoy the view! 

Pic of the comet with an enormous tail rising above the crimson horizon. One of the astronomy telescopes at Paranal is in the foreground to the right of the comet.

1. It's my birthday. I turn 53 today, and I don't have a single important regret.
2. It was 23-degrees below zero this morning, and my car started! Took a couple of groaning turns and then fired right up.
3. Four days after getting fixed, Ms. Sophie is back to being sassy and spunky. After the couple of slow days, she's back to normal. Good to see the spark in her eyes.

Someone was deliberately jamming a young woman who was working contacts on 20M in this weekend's #SSB #NAQP contest. This is ridiculous behavior that has no place at all in the #AmateurRadio service. Its times like these when I think every commercial rig should be made so it transmits a unique identifier so its owner can be tracked even when they refuse to give their callsign. Remember there's no fair expectation of anonymity in Amateur Radio. #HamRadio
This reminded me of an idea that I had a while back which was to set up SDRs around that were configured in a 'direction finding' mode. (like the Kraken SDR or similar) Then you could tell them to grab spectrum for a few minutes, down load it from all of them, and then use the ones that could see the interfering signal to provide a fix on where it originates.

Sadly, that could also be used to stalk people.
Perhaps this direction-finding SDR idea could be implemented internationally with organizational governance? Instead of just sharing results with the world, evidence would be passed along to the appropriate regulatory authorities or to any court upon an appropriate order. Perhaps an org like #IARU would like to take leadership here to ensure compliance with appropriate #AmateurRadio service rules against deliberate interference? #HamRadio

The FDA says esketamine, an antidepressant derived from the anesthetic and party drug ketamine, can now be prescribed on its own. It was approved in 2019 to treat severe depression.

So #trump goofed and made all #Americans legally female.

His executive order, defining 2 and only 2 sex's that can't be changed has some...unique wording.

Specifically it ignores chromosomes and uses Phenotype (probably to avoid intersex complications)

But the key bit is it defines a person's sex as at conception not birth, now I don't know who remembers there high school biology but.....everyone's female till half way then those with a Y usually develop male parts 😂

So by the exact wording of the EO, trump just legally transed half of America.

@janisf How do you see a MAC behind a NAT?
Janis mastodon (AP)
Not a MAC, a device ID tied to the processor, I think, in Android 7+ and Windows 10+, (don't quote me) anyway.

I mean, I can't really troubleshoot what exactly is the tie that bound the whole thing together. My assertion is that there are several ways to get that job done to make a string. Your front signage is your IP address, so that's usually what it is.
