Well I've just filled in a "tell us how we did" page on the McDonalds web site. Towards the end they asked me about my sex.I wanted to say "very satisfying thank you", but that wasn't an option. Instead, I have to select from a few tick boxes. The first were Male, Female and Binary, and there were a few others such as self-determined or something like that. I always thought that binary was something to do with digits, but I guess this isn't the meaning in this case.  |

The best way to get merit is to avoid posting about getting it. I might start putting posters who start merit hunting threads like these on ignore.

One of the most successful investors ( I can't remember which one ) was once asked to what he attributed his success. His reply was " selling too soon".

I'm pissed off with Google, Apple and Microsoft for a variety of reasons. I use a cheap smartphobne all the time, and it is great. I use very few apps, and Google doesn't like that, and it keeps trying to change my settings, and sending me stupid messages. I won't be moving to 5G for quite some time, if ever. There are alternatives appearing that may be better for me,
We know that the Five Eyes alliance has backdoors into all phones and computers, and that is more of a concern for me than the Chinese government, if it is true that they will be using Huawei with open source software. The whole issue is rubbish anyway. Most computers and phones use Chinese chips, and the so called health service use Chinese manufactured drugs, that should be more of a concern.
I need a second phone, so I will be watching the market,and I'll probably buy a Huawei phone when a suitable one appears.

It's a difficult topic to evaluate. The B&H board should be for crypto beginners I guess, and that topic was for Internet beginners. Probably that was the reason it was moved.

Shoppers have gone a bit mad recently, and it seems to be the Corona Virus that has been the trigger. The supermarkets I have visited seem to have sold out of loo rolls, soap, pasta, tinned tomatoes, hand sanitisers, and a few other things. They seem to have lots of items that I would have thought were more useful in preparation for a shut down. I bought a few tins of sardines and pilchards for example. The soap is really a bit sad - don't people wash their hands normally? As my friend said - she doesn't care about loo rolls, as she has a bidet. Maybe we should all think about installing those to save paper, and improve hygiene. Is pasta really a better option than rice or potatoes as part of an emergency diet? Why choose tinned tomatoes rather than any other tinned vegetable? ( I know, tomatoes are really a fruit, but most people seem to think of them as vegetables ).
Do are the talkers here buying for a supermarket drought? What are your chosen items to carry you through the crisis?

@ITV
but the droplets can only stay airborn for a few feet, so a mask isn't going to help you unless you are robbing the supermarket, or someone coughs straight into your face. This virus isn't the same as previous ones, which were aerosols, and could carry through the air con systems.

"Politics doesn't have anything to do with crypro currencies" - What an extraordinary statement. Politics are the reason crypto was created in the first place. It is becoming more significant as well, Maybe there could be a shift in the emphasis of moderation, but it is more likely that there is a shortage of good thread starters.

I don't understand the list either. I have 265 sMerits available at the moment, and that is after today's awards.
I need to restart some projects so that I can use them.

For me, the biggest advantage of privacy is to stop Google messing with my searches.
I do use the Tor window in the Brave browser though.

Thanks for that factual post Jack.
As I have said many rimes, the current Corona Virus doesn't spread by aerosols, but by droplets. So masks aren't much use unless a person is only a couple of feet in front of you, and coughs directly into your face. The problem comes when the droplets fall onto a surface, and you pick them up and move them to your eyes or mouth. Don't wash face masks either, and this expands the holes in them. You realise the stupidity of people when you see them wearing face masks, but not wearing gloves.
Your best protection is not to smoke or vape. Smoking increase ACE-2 receptors, and the virus uses those to bind to your cells. Strengthen your immune system with a healthy diet, and the avoidance of all vaccinations. Don't take any pharmaceutical or recreational drugs, as they weaken your immune system. Maintain an active sex life to stimulate blood flow and restful sleep.

Smokers who damaged the lungs fair much worse then average population.
It isn't the damage to the lungs that causes smokers to be at an increased risk. Smoking increases the ACE-2 receptors that are used by the virus. |

Come on guys - they haven't even got a reliable system for testing and diagnosis, so you can any stats be credible, Then there is the fact that people who have not been immunocompromised often don't show any symptoms, and don't get tested.
In addition most of the deaths related to CV are from secondary causes, because the hospitals have buggered up the body's natural defences.

Put an imaginary £500 into an imaginary trading account. Then pretend that you are trading with it by making imaginary purchases and sales. See how you get on for 3 months. If you make an imaginary loss, then you need to do some more reading. Analyse your trades,and if you feel comfortable with them, then try speculating with £100 for another 3 months.
