Having gone out in public a slight bit (pharmacy, walks, walmart lol) man there is such a strange energy in the air isn't there.
Everyone politely kind of avoiding each-other as much as possible, lots of half grins that everyone understands. Like everyone can only slightly believe how loving weird everyone's lives have gotten all of a sudden.

It's like everyone is filled with half terror, and half "lol wtf".

For about half a year now there's a 50/50 chance that even having one drink will make me feel ill (basically I feel like I have a bad hangover two hours after I drink it). Two drinks means I'm staying awake all night feeling sick. My best guess is it's related to my medication, but I haven't changed what I've been taking in like 3 years so if it's not some kind of small manufacturer change then I have no clue what shot my tolerance down.

AHEM, moral of the story is, at least I can't handle drinking, so while I would love to be getting drunk every day in self quarantine I kinda can't. I like drinking though so it all kinda sucks.

Also animal crossing owns.

The malaria drug the army gave me just about drove me insane to the point of wanting to blow my brains out. The silver lining is that the people who got extremely rich because of that drug were later mysteriously murdered.

So in Fort Lauderdale, FL (hearing this secondhand), friend of a friend had family friends over from Italy. From a hotspot area. Before the flight bans were in place. Stayed with her, flew back before everything shut down, back to France. They both tested positive for Covid-19 in France. She came down with all the symptoms. Went to the hospital, got asked all the questions even though she had most or all of the expected symptoms, they basically had the attitude of we're not testing you. Have you been in contact with a confirmed case? Yes, explained everything, the close physical contact. They tell her, well, we don't have any tests. Go home. Your case is under investigation by the CDC, so you're a potential but we can't confirm if we can't test.

Fort Lauderdale is in a major metropolitan area, in a county of about two million.

Yesterday, after looking at the numbers for my state (in Australia), I predicted we're at around 50/day. Today they've announced 59. I expect by midweek we'll be seeing around 250/day and by next weekend we might already be at 1,000/day.

They're still bragging about how the only new cases are people returning from overseas or those who had contact with people confirmed to be sick... while refusing to test anyone who hasn't just returned from overseas or had contact with someone confirmed to be sick :ughh:

https://www.reddit.com/user/GovSchwarzenegger/comments/flz3es/stay_at_home_stay_fit/

quote:

This coronavirus pandemic is unprecedented. I have heard from so many of my fans that you are anxious and scared.

Almost everything happening around the world right now is out of our control. Almost everything. Instead of worrying about the things we can’t change, let’s focus on the things we do control.

First, and most importantly, we can control how responsible we are right now. We can slow down the spread of the virus by staying at home as much as possible. I know that isn’t easy, but right now it’s our responsibility. Most of us will be fine if we get the virus. This is a time not to think about yourself, but to think about the people you could be infecting. Be a part of the solution, and stay home every chance you can. That means no bars, no restaurants, no gatherings, and you’ll all be shocked to hear this from me, but no gyms.

Even without a gym, we can also control our physical fitness during this pandemic. Body weight, or freehand, training is the oldest method in the world. Gladiators and Vikings didn’t have gymnasiums. I started my own fitness journey with chin-ups on a tree branch by a lake in Austria. My father would encourage my brother and I to train by following the footsteps of a boxing hero of ours, László Papp, who chopped wood when he was preparing for a fight (this was a great trick to get us to do our chores). And once, when I found myself in New York to promote fitness, but ironically I couldn’t find a gym, I still found a way to train. I ran up the steps of the Park Lane Hotel where I was staying, all 46 stories, and by the end I was completely schvitzy and my legs got an incredible pump.

You don’t need a gym to be fit. I’ve written a program for all of you. You can do it every other day and it will cover all of your muscle groups.

Mine still has the zookeepers working, but everything else is shut down, and the loss of revenue is going to make operations a struggle if this goes on for too long. We'd have to transfer funds from our endangered species breeding and international conservation programs just to keep our animals alive. Because unlike the flood in 2013, we can't just ship them to other zoos right now.

The airport is a madhouse. Why haven't they just closed it. I don't want to go work. I get no vacation or paid holidays, I just wanna relax. :(

Bunch of people still traveling. I would assume only to get home, but clearly not since almost all the flights are domestic short-hops. More travelers than there ought to be - considering. But the airlines are rapidly going bankrupt; flights are down 50% at my airport and those flights have few passengers so the revenue has gone down considerably more than 75%.

My company has been firing people and granting unpaid time off to anyone that wants it. Meanwhile people are just calling off, a lot. One morning every person on one operation was on leave/called off and the management had to come fuel the planes. I just got word maintenance is also not allowed to do overtime. I'm the only person in a department of 5 and it's been that way for months, working 12-16h shifts. Oh well maybe I'll have time to get food now. I haven't been able to buy groceries in a week and I've resorted to take-out entirely.

If I go to the gym after work, I work out. If I go home after work, I sleep. The only reason I have a gym membership is because I know I'm lazy when I'm home. Speaking of, how are y'all getting protein?

ive been seeing posts on facebook to act like you are already infected. i need to sit down and figure this out but it seems to me like a reverse prisoners dilemma kind of thing. it really rubs me the wrong way because i work in one of those "essential services" and short of seeing a total halt to society we still need to operate. until new guidelines are figured out on how to conduct "business as usual" how about people who are high risk stay the gently caress away. its crazy enough right now without me having to get anxiety weather im asymptomatic and actually a super spreader.

by the way im loving all the instagram poo poo of people working from home and students off school or just general ingrates who dont have anything better to do and playing it like a party. im healthy and i probably wont show many symptoms but you never know, knock on wood, so im going to be at work as much as i can. im getting all the crazy poo poo right now. im sure people in grocery stores are getting the same thing. nurses and doctors and support staff are doing gods work.

so if you are having a fun loving time self isolating but somehow also with a bunch of friends in a hot tub and drinking all your wine keep it to yourself.

Withouth javascript you are reading a website, with javascript the website may be reading you.

Theres multiple ways to track visitors, cookies was only of them, the cookie thing only made european companies less competitives and generally anoy every citizen. The people that voted for them should one day face revolutionary justice.

Sorry but Tei this is utter horseshit and you're a smart guy you should really know better.

1) HTTPS is a thing
2) If they wanted to spy so bad why wouldn't they just inject the JS anyway (I mean other than the glaringly obvious technical inability to do so)? Why would it have to do with cookies and GDPR at all?
3) Forcing companies to explain what they're tracking and why is a good thing and if that annoys a user then that's that user's problem and they're stupid
