Real class act, Vance. This is who I want representing all of us. Seems perfectly fit to be 1 heart beat away from president.

I wish I had amnesia about it.

Another good decision by Intel execs. /s

I see some of that rhetoric and I think it's mostly the younger folks. The virility of youth combined with the challenges they are faced with leave everyone more on edge. There are other factors of course, lack of wisdom, Internet anonymity, etc

I don't think violence is a useful tool when fighting against hate groups. It's what they want. Then they have a claim that they are oppressed. You let them make the first move.

That being said, I'm ready to fight back against them at a moment's notice and will use all means. I see the luxuries most of us enjoy (food, electricity, clean water) and hope it never comes to that for all our sake. Our just-in-time economy depends on stability and COVID showed us how easily it can all get fucked up. Out of control violence is one of those ways.

See? AI creates jobs! Granted, it's specialized mop up situations, but jobs!

It'll be even more interesting in the future! Every now and then a T1000 will lose all hydraulic fluids right out it's prosthetic anus and they'll need someone there with a mop and bucket! Our economy lives on...

Interesting, thank you!

Huh. I guess it wasn't a documentary or a reputable source that I heard that from. Apparently it never happened and it was of those things I learned which never got properly debunked. It was a long time ago and there was a LOT of misinformation during and right after about 9/11.

Thanks for updating me on that.

I'm glad she's standing up against hate. She has more to lose than most of us but still stood up.

That being said, she was 66 in that picture and that freaks me out a little. I remember watching reruns of her on TV back in the 80's. At the rate I'm going, I'll be looking like the sorting hat from Harry Potter by that age.

And as we saw in documentaries, the only plane that flew over US skies after 9/11 was one to get the Saudi families out. What will this new evidence do? The same thing it has done for the last 17 years: nothing.

So inventive these guys. If only we could harness that ingenuity for the common good instead, it would have a huge impact.

 

I've seen many tests (we're talking the average retail 4-drop kits) come up with varying degrees of positivity as a person goes through a bout with COVID.

Once they test positive, it's usually coming up with that T indicator long before the C shows to.

However, I've noticed that even that length of time for the T to show can vary. Sometimes it starts faded and fills in but sometimes the line can go full color as soon as the liquid hits it. Other times it may take a while and come up after the C (once closer to getting over it).

My thought here is the virus particles per million in a person's mucus are fluctuating during the course of their sickness and the more virus particles, the faster that bar is going to pop on the COVID test.

So then, is it stupid to think the faster the T shows up, the more infectious a person is with their coughing/sneezing?

This is excellent publicity that convinces me not to even try that game.
