    @triodug Yeah. Used to live near a big open field. In Winter, mice would try to move indoors. I felt bad, but just catching them and taking them back into the field would just result in their returning (or one of their friends ... I think there were just too many for the amount of food; the coyotes kept the outdoor cat population too low).

      March 1989 geomagnetic storm
      The March 1989 geomagnetic storm occurred as part of severe to extreme solar storms during early to mid March 1989, the most notable being a geomagnetic storm that struck Earth on March 13. This geomagnetic storm caused a nine-hour outage of Hydro-Québec's electricity transmission system. The onset time was exceptionally rapid. Other historically significant solar storms occurred later in 1989, during a very active period of solar cycle 22. Geomagnetic storm and auroras The geomagnetic storm causing this event was itself the result of an ejection known as a coronal mass ejection (CME) on March 9, 1989. A few days before, on March 6, a very large X15-class solar flare also occurred. Three-and-a-half days later, at 2:44 am EST on March 13, a severe geomagnetic storm struck Earth. The storm began on Earth with extremely intense auroras at the poles. The aurora could be seen as far south as Texas and Florida. As this occurred near the end of the Cold War, an unknown number of people worried that a nuclear first strike might be in progress. Others incorrectly considered the intense auroras to be associated with...

    @mangeurdenuage@loadaverage.org I know about one in 2012 that sent a huge flare / coronal mass ejection which missed earth.

    @1iceloops123 Yes, Outlook allows folders. You'd want to use a rule to do the sorting, but even with folders and autosorting, you're basically drowning in an old septic tank.
    .
    I have 8K in my work inbox and folders (surprisingly, a bad storm in the Midwest can generate 200+ messages in a weekend and another 150 over the next week or two as rivers reach flood stage and then slowly recede), and I'm going to prune it hard once I'm being paid again. @moonman

    @coolboymew When I was in high school, I had two friends born a couple of years apart from different families that looked identical AND shared the same first name. They said they were "not related" but we all suspected differently.

    @1iceloops123 If you don't exercise and sweat out that salt, you'd probably get high blood pressure.

      Senior Google engineer reveals privacy bombshell in Android’s preinstalled apps
      from @privacyint
      Maddie Stone, formally a Senior reverse engineer and tech lead on the Android security team, shockingly revealed a number of examples of how pre-installed apps on Android devices can undermine users privacy and security in her BlackHat USA talk in August 2019. The video of the talk only recently became available to the public in late December 2019.

    @moonman I have a nephew ("Papaya") in his mid-twenties, so if I'm around him a lot, that enters my vocabulary.

    @sim Wow. That's dedication. If I'd only known you when I had sixteen year olds.

    @1iceloops123 @moonman Why?
    .
    With your inbox clogged with that many messages, it must be difficult to use your e-mail for anything productive. I'd rather dump hundreds of (potentially important) messages and have something usable. I'm also in favor of the strictest spam filters ... I'd rather not let any spam get through, even if it means I miss a few "real" messages. (Same with p-mail ... throw those bulk marketing flyers away, don't put them in my mailbox; it just wastes my time and effort to have to trash them myself).

    During today's walk, I barely made it to a Walgreens (or maybe CVS ... it was one of those drugstore chains) for a restroom stop. Then, I stopped in the candy aisle where their giant size Hershey products were 4 for $4. Guess how much I had in my pocket?

    That wasn't the right choice. I probably should have chosen the nearby fast food place instead.
