Went to check on the GoPro that I left running on the roof and predictably it had stopped recording at some point.. But caught the main show at least (so far?) Cornwall, UK 19/01/2026 #northernlights #Aurora

@Only9built That toupee isn't fooling anyone

Make life a little camper.

@FunkadelicHorse @66Steph82 @GME_1970 @MichaelCGlasper Chillingly, the answer came back.. "RS"

@tophe_probert @66Steph82 @GME_1970 @MichaelCGlasper Gesundheit.

"Interested/not interested" I'm alright, mate.

@BertDalziel The American influence in my house is not imaginary and I do use bangers and mash to negate it but I don't think this is a magical power. She just eats something else.

@tophe_probert almost certainly NOT

@MichaelCGlasper Judging by all the articles and movies and poscasts etc the other two were very popular. Worth gauging public opinion before making a decision I feel.

@tophe_probert "We're thinking of starting WW3. Can I put you down as yes, no or not sure?"

@66Steph82 So unless you were driving an invisible car, he wasn't looking where he was going

@66Steph82 Ugh. Sorry. Too many people can't be trusted with roundabouts

There was an M3.9 flare in AR 14403 this morning, with some large-scale disturbances mostly along the limb. A minor CME was also seen, apparently not Earth-directed. The region consists of a single spot, not looking promising, but who knows how it evolves into Earth strike zone?

Rays for days in Milford Sound

Many thanks to the lane departure "assistant" on my rental car for trying to prevent me from safely moving back to the left after an overtake this morning. Not disconcerting at all having the steering wheel jerk towards incoming traffic.

@CageFooName @Lindsay04555896 And tumble dryers. Ours has this for the stop start button. Except there's half second delay before it does anything. So I'm constantly stopping starting stopping starting because without a physical on/off position my brain says "that didn't work, press it again"

@tophe_probert @Lindsay04555896 And to think people went 'this would be a great idea for cars too'

We had to move my aging grandparents into an assisted living flat at one point that was lovely and modern but they decided to install these hobs? For people in their 80s? Mad decision

@Lindsay04555896 @CageFooName And the fact that any moisture getting on the area of the buttons is considered as a finger press, very annoying to use and clean.

@CageFooName Yes, they're not particularly straightforward

@DavidPGCSE It's only breakfast if it's from the uk. This is just a sparkling small lunch.

Looks like it, yes

Tasmania's night sky is something else entirely. Aurora australis + a rare STEVE event (Sunday night), reflected on still water. Pinch me!

@Only9built Ford Caspadari

Snappy little thing...Know what it is??

A truck carrying antiprotons will drive across Europe. A team at CERN just transported antimatter across the laboratory's campus in a truck. Literally. 92 antiprotons packed into a portable trap weighing one tonne. As everyone knows, antimatter annihilates on contact with ordinary matter - which is basically everything. The final destination is Germany: Heinrich Heine University in Düsseldorf. An extraordinary delivery in the history of road transport. home.cern/news/press-rel…

Hi @cinchuk Car was to be delivered today but I'm told it had a puncture on the way so it'll be delayed. I called to ask for more info on the cause of the puncture but was told I won't find out & if I don't like that I should cancel my order. If pothole etc car needs rechecking!

@DavidPGCSE @BristOliver Normalise at least one kid in your year group at any given time having a broken limb sustained on a playground (usually the roundabout iirc)

@BristOliver We lost a few friends but at least we were based

Wow, that's almost 25p per capita
