When you're talking to your mom and have to cut it short because a tornado siren is going off at her location.

ai6yr,

@exador23 😬

ai6yr,

@exador23 Yep... my bot. Nothing new recently, amazingly.

ai6yr,

@exador23 A lot of those are tornado warnings, last one was yesterday.

Ugh. Looks like #GOES 16 (East) has suffered a failure. Not sure how serious yet. This is the last image, timestamped 13 May 0016Z.

ai6yr,

@philbaker1 Oooh, did it get taken out by a CME?!?!

ai6yr,

@philbaker1 Yeah, I remember there was some cooling issue a few years ago, but not complete failure. https://www.nasaspaceflight.com/2021/07/goes-17-anomaly-july-2021/

Still aurora conditions up north, but not down south. Only G3 now.

What in the world from Disney is advertising Bluetooth around here?!?! #Bluetooth

ai6yr,

Interesting... this is either a "Magic Band" or one of the phones in our house is now advertising itself to Walt Disney as a result of loading the "My Disney Experience" app. https://disneyworld.disney.go.com/faq/star-wars-galaxys-edge/bluetooth-low-energy/

ai6yr,

Hmm, one of my solar controllers has Bluetooth enabled by default. Password was 000000. 😱

ai6yr,

@bud_t Loaded rfparty on Android for fun

ai6yr,

So, it's possible to find controllers people have not connected to with Bluetooth and reset their codes, and then proceed to either cause them to shut off or overcharge batteries (which could cause the batteries to explode or leak, or cause a fire). 😬

Didn't think I'd be pen testing my solar power setup in the shed, LOL.

ai6yr,

@m501 I'm sure you can disable the app from running in the background, too.

ai6yr,

@ve3qbz @bud_t It's primitive but lots of good info. Trying th Linux app, but same thing (prototype level software, but lots of valuable things I am finding)

ai6yr,

@LabSpokane LOL that's hilarious

ai6yr,

The Disney Bluetooth advertisement is almost certainly one of the ones in my household, and the Disney App. 😬

ai6yr,

@douglasvb Yes, there's a Disney theme park app (required to get onto certain rides).

ai6yr,

@douglasvb Not sure... but probably.

Anyone lose their V?

White sage in bloom. Seems a little early.

ai6yr,

@exador23 It's blooming here, too.

ai6yr, to H5N1

LA Times: Despite H5N1 bird flu outbreaks in dairy cattle, raw milk enthusiasts are uncowed https://www.latimes.com/environment/story/2024-05-12/raw-milk-enthusiasts-uncowed-by-bird-flu-risk-in-dairy

ai6yr,

"Raw milk enthusiasts are doubling down on the claimed benefits and safety of their favorite elixir, and say the government warnings are nothing more than “fearmongering.”" 🙄

ai6yr,

👀 "Mark McAfee, founder of Fresno’s Raw Farm and the Raw Milk Institute, said his phone has been ringing off the hook with “customers asking for H5N1 milk because they want immunity from it.”"

ai6yr,

@BakerRL75 You would think this kind of stupidity would have bred itself out of the gene pool by now!

ai6yr,

@LALegault @CStamp @VeeRat Camel urine or human urine? They are different species of the same animal, you know 🤪
