Didn't this happen in that documentary "2001 - A Space Odyssey" ?

I knew that something is wrong with the Sun!
It's getting cooler and cooler here!

There is always the possibility NASA is wrong, however, and the event is the start of a conspiracy theory predicting the end of the world on July 29.

NASA cannot be wrong!
10 more days and the end of world will be here.(Again!)

There's a video on the Internet about it ! So it must be true !

That's if you've got nearly 20 minutes to waste and watch to save yourself.

And if you believe this garbage !​

TeeEm, I'd rather have all my teeth ripped out, one every hour, than watch that.

I clicked on the timeline and saw only half a dozen images along the video.

Lucky you! The dark spot wasn't over me the last few days, it was 30C + and way too hot for me and my pc wouldn't have survived....so it stayed off

Good thinking!
One of my PCs died on a hot day.

OH NO !
It's coming, the end of the world is starting early in Brisbane.

the end of the world is starting early in Brisbane.

That must be some effect of not having daylight savings.

it was 30C + and way too hot for me and my pc wouldn't have survived...

It's certainly damn uncomfortable for us skin and bone people, but consider that a few Aussie days can get to 40+C and in places like Dubai it's even hotter - and PC's still work there.

Electronics have specs that go into regions like 80C and 90C and military grade electronics are more robust and rated at ever higher temperatures.

I think a nice cold gin and tonic would go down well at House Megabyte
