    I thought the 2024 one might be in totality over Mexico and maybe Texas. Just not across the US like this one is

    Yeah well I'm pretty lazy, I just happen to be right in the line of sight for totality on this one. The next one looks like I'd have to travel a pretty good ways.

    Yeah, my luck I will trip and fall and land face up starring at the sun. I'll take my chances though

    I wonder what the difference is with the special ones they sell and regular sunglasses?

    They're basically welding masks...they block out 99% of the suns rays...you'd need like a million pair of regular sunglasses to do that...

    I've for real been wanting to learn how to weld. After this eclipse, I have my protection ready :sunglasses:

    You could just darken any piece of glass over the candle flame, no need to waste money on eclipse glasses

    ...I'd rather stare off into the sun and end it all.

    BTW if you're "scrambling to get glasses" that's your own damn fault, we've known this eclipse was coming for years.

    Problem solved. I don't need to run around all crazy like looking for some cheap sun glasses...

    It is recommended that you wear at minimum shade 12 for that. Anything lower and you can still damage your eyes. 13 is best. 14 is too dark to see very well.
