Listening to Vancouver Council budget discussion in the background this morning. In response to a question from @seanorr.bsky.social about where they'll be retracting from the city just said they're planning to REMOVE baby changing tables and menstrual product dispensers to save costs. Shameful.

OpenAI's Sora video generator places 3 watermarks on its AI generated videos: the top-left or top-right corner, the center-right, and the bottom-left corner.

Each of these Facebook videos has 3 caption overlays which just happen to be placed in these 3 locations.

Hidden in the controversial about UK "choking ban" proposal are a host of even more egregious proposals that could:

* make camming illegal
* redefine escort ads as pimping
* render model contracts unenforceable
* criminalize discussions of teen sexuality

And a whole lot more ...
Moral panic about rough sex gives way to censorship in the UK
British regulators and lawmakers are hot on a measure that would make possessing or publishing strangulation porn a crime.

A few more photos from tonight’s incredible #aurora. I’m fascinated by the amount of red light tonight. This is generated by oxygen molecules being excited by light plasma at least 600 km above the Earth. The green is also oxygen molecules, but much lower (100-250km). Definitely a great night.
A ribbon of green light topped with red swirls across the sky, high above the silhouettes of spear trees. The forest rims a barely frozen pond that reflects a bit of the light. Ribbons of bright, red and green light fill the sky behind the tall silhouettes of spruce trees. The red light is on top of the green. Looking straight up into the night, sky, green swirls of Aurora form of Phoenix, like image surrounded by red light that is glowing higher up behind it. Looking up into the night, sky, curtains of red and green light pour down from high in the atmosphere a start contrast of the silhouettes of trees.

There's a big fuck off Aurora going off right now & for the next 24hrs. If this keeps up, it will visible from Auckland New Zealand after dark.

Moon doesn't rise till 2:45am tomorrow so no issue.
GOES magnetometer products are an integral part of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) space weather operations, providing information on the general level of geomagnetic activity and permitting detection of magnetic storms and substorms. In addition, these measurements will be used to validate large-scale space environment models that will be added to SWPC operations in the future. Historically, the data have been presented in the E (earthward), P (parallel) and N (normal) coordinate system where: Hp: magnetic field vector component, points northward, perpendicular to the orbit plane which for a zero degree inclination orbit is parallel to Earth's spin axis. He: magnetic field vector component, perpendicular to Hp and Hn and points earthward. Hn: magnetic field vector component, perpendicular to Hp and He and points eastward. Ht: the total field. GOES 3-day Hp plot shows the 1-minute averaged parallel component of the magnetic field in nanoTeslas (nT), currently measured at GOES-13 (~75 degrees west geographic longitude) and GOES-15 (~135 degrees west geographic longitude). The longitudes can vary, so for any particular case it is important to check the satellite location. A diurnal variation is observed in these data as a result of magnetospheric currents systems that, at geosynchronous orbit, produce a stronger magnetic field on the dayside of Earth and weaker magnetic fields on the nightside. If these data drop to near zero, or less, when the satellite is on the dayside, it may be due to a compression of the Earth's magnetopause into the geosynchronous orbit boundaries, exposing satellites to negative and/or highly variable magnetic fields. On the nightside, the smaller field values indicate strong currents in the magnetotail that are often associated with the stretching and subsequent release of energy in Earths tail. Aurora Alert iPhone app showing the Aurora is going OFF Bz-33 is BONKERS, absolutely BONKERS Spaceweather live webpage showing the aurora data & forecast model maps. Anything with orange or red in it shows a massively intense storm, anything this size, given you can see aurora 1000km from the edge of the event will be visible across most of New Zealand forecast model showing this aurora is going to go for 2 days

If you have a very low-latitude aurora observation from tonight, please record your exact time and rough location and DO NOT DELETE your photo. These observations will be important for scientific research of this event.

Comment below if you have a low-latitude aurora sighting.
