@Billius27@mstdn.ca also worth noting that NIOSH, who controls N95 certifications doesn’t certify masks with standard earloops, only headstraps or earloops w/a connecting fastener in the back & pretty much all the certified producers seem to have gone the headstrap route

If someone tells you a mask with earloops is N95 either they’ve confused it with a similar standard from a diff countries regulatory body (KN95’s allow earloops for example) or the mask is fraudulent

@jkcheney @edebill currently sunrise 6:15, sunset 6:10 in Barentsburg so pretty close to exactly 12 actually!

The issue with the equinoxes is that for certain astronomical things (eg figuring out equinoxes) the sun is treated as a single center point, but for many practical considerations thats not the relevant definition — so sunsets are typically calculated by the trailing edge and sunrises by the leading (if you can see the sun at all, it counts as up). And then you often get a period of dusk (when you can’t see the sun but there’s still light shining up past the horizon) before true night, making the nights seem even shorter than they are — astronomical twilight doesn’t end until the sun is a full 18° below the horizon
