God is dead. God remains dead. And we have killed him. Who will wipe this blood off us? What festivals of atonement, what sacred games shall we need to invent?


i can believe it. my wife had a patient come in with chest pain. he had just gotten a call from the state telling him he didnt have covid-19. they asked to speak to his wife, as they had her results as well. he thought the chest pain could be anything, but he wanted to make sure he was alright because the wife they wanted to speak to died last week from suspected covid-19. hearing the story made me sick to my stomach

New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo said the state has enough ventilators to last about six days if the rate of people needing them stays stable.

quote:

"If that rate continues, in our stock pile we have about six days," Cuomo said. "If the apex increases, if the apex is longer, we have an issue with ventilators."

Cuomo said he's working on finding more ventilators, but he has "no desire to acquire more ventilators than we need

"If a person comes in and needs a ventilator and you don't have one, the person dies. That's the blunt equation here," he said

I work as a contractor for a big tech company out here in the seattle area. my office is on the east side so not walkable at all and would require two buses to get to since I don’t have a car. because of some technical reasons I don’t fully understand, I need to connect my computer to the big tech company’s WiFi once a month or I lose trust and get locked out of application/documents that I need to do my job. I technically could request VPN access but for some reason my sponsor is super against that and my boss is telling me and my team to not do that. they were going to get us non-domaines laptops as an alternative but apparently they aren’t able to due to shortages now. they say we have to go in to the office and connect.

wtf do I do? rent a Zipcar and hope no one was spreading the corona in it before me? ride the bus? is it even legal to tell me to come in for this reason right now?

Get an uber, go to the office, grab some lunch to go, go home

You could also go there and see if you can get connected from outside the building, which may be possible unless the access points aren't on the ground floor or whatever

good thing South Korea didn't treat the outbreak of Corona virus as a war, or else the US would have been in charge

https://carnegieendowment.org/2019/08/21/why-doesn-t-south-korea-have-full-control-over-its-military-pub-79702

quote:

As things currently stand, South Korea has operational control of its military under armistice conditions, but the United States would take over in wartime. This arrangement is unique to the U.S.-South Korea alliance. It is reflected in the structure of the Combined Forces Command—the alliance’s war-fighting command—which is headed by a U.S. four-star general while a South Korean four-star general serves as deputy commander.

The RoK bought a bunch of weapons last year so the US would consider allowing it to control it's own military

quote:

South Korea’s presidential office and military procurement authorities have since been tight-lipped about what might be in that “very large purchase.” But local defense experts and industry sources tell Defense News that acquisition decisions will focus on airborne systems with a price tag reaching 10 trillion won (U.S. $8.8 billion) over the next five to six years.

A key motive for U.S. weapons purchase is the planned transfer of wartime operational control from the U.S. military to the South Korean armed forces,” said Shin Jong-woo, a senior analyst at the Seoul-based Korea Defense and Security Forum think tank. “What we need now to lead wartime operations in the years ahead is to get more and better airborne weapons systems, which would be preferential purchasing items.”

:downs: this quirk is exactly the same as a full military occupation. Keep on going though because I know you are about to launch into a tirade about how North Korea has literally done nothing wrong or whatever.
