/ Got Windows 7? Don't Panic!

Got Windows 7? Don't Panic!

Microsoft officially ends support for Windows 7 in 2020. That doesn't mean it will suddenly stop working, you'll get infected, or hacked. More people are getting infected & hacked on Windows 10 computers than any other.

As long as you keep your third party antivirus & browsers updated you'll be fine. Do not ever use Microsoft Explorer or Edge browsers on your machines... not even on Windows 10. Most other browsers are safer, more secure, & private.

I would never NEVER get Windows 10 on any machine. If it already came with W10 on it I will remove it to put Windows 7, or something (anything) else on it.

Windows 10 is not more secure. It's forever changing, so is forever creating new vulnerabilities for itself, while they still haven't found & repaired previous vulnerabilities. It's overloaded, bogged down, bloated, & slow. It's chock full of adware, spyware, bloatware, & unsafe third party advertisers or partners far beyond any other OS or mainstream software.

It's unreliable. At least every couple of months an update breaks it, or even if you set it to not update & not reboot while you're working, it will suddenly do that when you're right in the middle of something anyway. It constantly changes & updates my drivers to some generic or odd type of driver that don't work, while I already had the correct & updated driver for that hardware already installed directly from the manufacturer. W10 updates change my settings, so I have to spend hours putting all my setting back the way they should be... every damn month or 2.

W7 has been attacked to death for so many years, that there's very little left that is still vulnerable that hasn't been discovered & patched long ago.

Explorer & Edge browsers are always vulnerable, less safe, less secure, & less private than most other browsers no matter what version of Windows you use. Just don't use them. Almost all popular browsers are better.

Microsoft antivirus, security essentials, & defender are a joke. Almost any of the good free third party antivirus sofware & security are better.

I will be comfortably, safely, & securely using W7 at least until 2023. When it gets to be you can't install an updated browser or firewall on W7 anymore, then you will be at risk. But I'll bet there will still be plenty that work on W7 in 2025.

Updated Opera browsers, many good antivirus software, & firewalls can still be installed on XP & Vista. I've seen many schools, libraries, cash register systems, ATMs, & military equipment still running XP fine & not getting viruses or hacked. Indeed, recently I'm seeing more W10 infected or hacked machines than with any other OS.

/ New image of Southern Crab Nebula
« on: April 19, 2019, 11:53:18 PM »
Hubble took new image of the Southern Crab Nebula.

The decision to image the Southern Crab Nebula was for this year's Hubble Telescope birthday photo.

The Southern Crab Nebula sits in the constellation Centaurus, about 7,000 light-years away from Earth. What look like the legs and pincers of a cosmic crab are actually twin bubbles of gas and dust burped out by a pair of stars at the nebula's center. This celestial couple is composed of one red giant... a huge, dying star in the process of molting its outer shell of matter, and one white dwarf... the tiny, dead husk of hot crystal that remains once a red giant has loosed its last burst of gas.

This binary duo coexists in a relationship where the dying red giant continuously feeds gas and dust into the white dwarf via its gravitational pull. After piling up for thousands of years, all that space schmutz may spark an eruption on the white dwarf's sizzling surface, sending matter scattering through space in giant bubbles. Astronomers think this has happened twice in the relatively recent past, giving rise to the twin splatters of glowing matter visible in Hubble's images of the nebula.

A similar celestial explosion could even happen again under Hubble's watch in the near future.

This is the first time anyone has captured a melanistic leopard on camera in Africa in 100 years.

Very few images of these iconic, secretive African panthers exist.

A black panther is a loose term for a black leopard or black jaguar, depending where in the world it's from.

The black leopard photographed is a male and based on its size, thought to be around two years old.

"We had always heard about black leopards living in this region, but the stories were absent of high quality footage that could confirm their existence," said Nicholas Pilfold PhD, lead researcher for a leopard conservation program in Laikipia County.

"Collectively these are the first confirmed images in nearly 100 years of a black leopard in Africa, and this region is the only known spot in all of Africa to have a black leopard."

It's easy to think of black panthers as animals in their own right, but that's not the case.

"The term that makes them black is called melanism and it's the same thing that makes a house cat black, or any other cat species.

It's kind of like albino but the other way.

A black panther is basically a melanistic big cat. Typically in Africa and Asia that would mean a melanistic leopard - a black leopard.

In South America it would be a melanistic jaguar - a black jaguar."

/ Psychic Predictions for 2019 & Beyond.
« on: February 12, 2019, 07:57:26 PM »
(Don't forget to see predictions for 2020 made in January-March 2020 at http://pskresearch.com/research/index.php?topic=111.0 and our YouTube channel at https://www.youtube.com/c/PSKResearch/videos.)

There's dozens of "psychics" in every town predicting lots of stuff. I selected just the most popular ones internationally who get it somewhat close sometimes -- in no particular order.

A leader emerges who is exactly what he says he is, kind and cares about this country and the world. He gives people hope the way John Kennedy did, very progressive. He wins the seat he is running for, he is in the northeast part of the country.

The president will be looking at a family or health issue in July and that may serve as a wake up call. We may not hear the full story until the fall.

The way we approach farming is going to change radically. People's relationship with money will change. We will see several politicians impeached.

Temperatures will be rising, so we will see more record heat waves and more fires.

We will begin to realize, power and greed are the issues, not money. How we look at money changes.

A woman who is practical and down to earth emerges a leader, she is a by the book person, realistic in her approach. She will be mocked and ridiculed but she will not give up. She is in the northeastern part of the county and she too wins her race.

Trump will go head to head with China, possibly on a trade war, a lot of back and forth and unrest. However, he will remain in power.

Putin has a new hypersonic nuclear vehicle, going up into space in 2019 which is also very dangerous.

Huge advances with NASA and the space industry happening in 2019, one of which will be discoveries on the Moon.

The US government will finally admit to the existence of an extraterrestrial aircraft and life that they have previously discovered and kept secret.

Volcanic eruptions in Italy.

Large earthquakes possible in Alaska, Papua New Guinea, New Zealand and Japan. China is going to get a massive amount of natural disasters.

Instead of losing the next US Presidential election, Trump will have some kind of negotiated settlement. The settlement will see him resign in 2019, but it could be early 2020.


We're going to hear more voices coming from outer space.” And not just voices, either. We’re going to see more UFOs coming to earth… A spaceship might land by the end of 2019, 2020 for sure. It’s not going to be anything to be scared of. There’s another planet like us out there.

Trump will almost go to prison for something he did, but he'll just barely get out of it.

Breakthroughs in breast cancer, breakthroughs in Alzheimer’s, breakthroughs with arthritis as well.

North Korea will head for democracy.

Trump controversy will continue but he will dodge impeachments and continue to be popular.

A nuclear accident.

Satellites and other cosmic items will hit the earth.

An assassination attempt on Mr Trump (during his second term), armed conflict in the Middle East and renewed relations with his Russian counterpart between 2019 and 2020.


Beyond 2019:

Aliens come to earth and will crash all over the place. We as humans will make peace with them. We will live alongside these creatures and be super content about it.

The United States will go to war with North Korea.

Humans will plug into computers as a first step to immortality.

Time travel will be possible by 2028.

The world becomes one big, whole country. And since we will be one country, we will have one single flag, especially since we are a united hybrid of people and aliens.

There will be forest fires everywhere and that some states will be covered in water from global warming. This will happen from 2019 to 2030.

A robotic eye will be introduced and anyone who has ever been blind will be able to see. An implanted chip will allow paralyzed people to walk again.

President Trump will serve a second term in office. The granddaughter of Martin Luther King, Jr. will be elected president in 2028.

An implanted chip will allow people to expand their brain power.

a global war lasting 27 years will break out in Europe and ravage the continent.

The big war will start in France and all Europe will be attacked, It will be long and terrifying for everyone.And then finally there will be peace but only a few will enjoy it -- A war will start between the two great world powers and it will last for a period of 27 years.

A flood will be the result of an asteroid crashing into the Mediterranean Sea.

According to Nostradamus, the literal personification of evil will arrive on Earth in the form of Mabus the Antichrist. The real danger will come when Mabus dies – an event which will trigger the outbreak of World War 3. When this happens, a war against the “three Eastern kings” will engulf the world in turmoil.

/ More Lunar probes & beyond for 2019
« on: January 03, 2019, 10:16:53 PM »
A lot of space organizations have big plans of their own for our sole natural satellite. China's space agency could landed its Chang'e-4 craft & its rover on the far side of the moon. The lander will explore the area near the south pole on the side of the moon that always faces away from Earth.

Lunar traffic will likely pick up with a planned lander/rover mission by India's space agency that could launch as soon as Jan. 30. A few weeks later, a SpaceX Falcon 9 is scheduled to send the first Israeli lunar lander on its way.

Google Lunar XPrize contestants, SpaceIL and at least three other finalists -- Berlin's PTScientists, India's Team Indus and Florida-based Moon Express -- are all aiming to land on the moon at some point in 2019.

Moon Express and a fifth XPrize finalist, Astrobotic, have also been chosen to work with NASA to send new science experiments to the surface of the moon. At a press conference in November, the space agency said the first commercial lunar payloads from the program could fly in 2019. They'll likely demonstrate technology needed to develop future lunar landers and missions.

China may be able to launch its Chang'e-5 mission by the end of the year. The follow-up to Chang'e-4 would collect samples from the surface and bring them back to Earth, marking the first time that's happened in decades.

Other spacecraft will get closer to space rocks in 2019. Both Japan's Hayabusa-2 and NASA's Osiris-Rex will spend part of the year making preparations to swipe samples of the asteroids Ryugu and Bennu, respectively. Hayabusa-2 is scheduled to collect its sample this year while Osiris-Rex will wait until 2020.

NASA's Juno spacecraft is scheduled to make seven more close passes by Jupiter in 2019.

Mars Insight probe will get to work drilling into the Martian surface to explore the planet's interior and listen for "Marsquakes."

Europe's Characterizing Exoplanets Satellite (CHEOPS), which is meant to provide a better look at exoplanets around distant stars. It could launch as soon as November.
