Over half of infected show no symptoms. They don't even know they have her inside them. Of those who do get symptoms, maybe a fifth will get sick enough to get tested. Those are the official numbers, so the actual number of infected is likely to be ten times as high.

From that group, maybe a fifth will get sick enough to need treatment. And of those, maybe a fifth die. So that gives us a 0.4% death rate overall. Let's assume I'm wildly off and call it 4%. Even then not bad enough to shut down the entire global economy, much less implement the kind of draconian measures that some here have personally experienced.

Is anything missing? Is the current state of the world anything other than an authoritarian power grab?

just curious. do you or anyone you know work in medical.

my wife and i did (not that that means we are super informed but we also know enough to not believe all the ridiculous crap circulating that the uneducated believe.

friends of ours in medical are scared. i mean scared. for themselves somewhat but mainly for their familys that they go home to and may possibly infect. and doctors and nurses do not scare easy (IMO at least the ones we know.. they will wade right into the thick of it. because thats what they do).

We have several billionnaires who regularly participate in this thread... even if they will not reveal their holdings, exactly.

except mindrust. who did reveal his holdings (zero).

but he is slowly buying back in a bit i thought.

a thick skin will help as manners are not a strong point in this thread.

Install the bitcoin wallet on your phone, remove the sim card, disable bluetooth wifi nfc, cancel all external connections and you already have your "military grade" Cheesy wallet

would you trust a soft switch for the radios?

hardware switch or disassemble the phone and remove the antennas. or if youre really good disable the comm chips if its doable. disconnect the power pins and such.

BTW a phone without a sim card can still make emergency calls (911 etc) its mandated. at least in the usa. so removing the card does nothing really.

No, military grade means the thing explodes if it's tampered with.

just dont press the little red button

4. Do not use an Internet access point if at least one other (your) device, home IOT devices, is connected to this access point).

good point as anything with access to other machines on the network can sniff packets and otherwise wreak damage to machines on it.

i have several access points for the various stuff.. one for ip cams systems, one for stuff like TVs, one for google/alexa stuff, one for other IoT (washer/dryer etc), one for guests, and one for my wireless computers and such.

none of the items on those access points can see the others. but stuff on the same AP can (usually) see each other as they usually need to.

EDIT: forgot to mention the obvious takeaway.. plus a separate AP for the rig you use the wallet on.

In the past, I haven't really been bothered by geotracking on my phone, but I'm starting to rethink my attitude. It isn't just Google an Facebook. but a load of other organisations seem to be getting in on the idea. I've got some old roofing lead, and I'm thinking of lining a tin box with it, and using it to isolate my phone, especially when I am travelling.

Does any one else have similar concerns?

power it off?

after all its useless in a faraday cage anyway (or lead).
2169  Other / Meta / Re: Why not spoiler tag? on: April 27, 2020, 11:46:37 AM
considering how .. err.. offensive some images are to some people a spoiler would be nice.

after all many here read with family and kids present.

please note i personally dont care about so called offensive images but it severely limits when i can read the forum depending on the people present.

If you're referring to embedded NSFW images, then that's not a problem since they are already banned here. Only links to NSFW content is allowed.

10. No embedded NSFW images anywhere. NSFW content must be marked accordingly.

errr have you not seen some images that were not marked accordingly?

perhaps its better now.. if so i withdraw my comment.

how to save bitcointalk account without band ?

easy

just play lynyrd skynyrd, molly hatchet, pink floyd. at reference level of course.

problem solved.

If the images benefit and compliment the thread I don't see why they would need to be hidden. I would like to see them without having to click on 4-5 buttons while reading the thread.
A better suggestion would be not to use too large images or too many. And even better then that would be to make it impossible to quote a previously posted image when a user replies to a post. It's so unnecessary. 

considering how .. err.. offensive some images are to some people a spoiler would be nice.

and no im not some prude or one to censor things. just give warning please.

EDIT: there is a width setting in img tags, that will tame the huge images. IF people learn to use it.

Many people are at home...which gives you time to research and tweak your mining machines.


So, what are you mining right now and are you happy with the results?

food and protective gear.

not mining per say but mining profits are going to that for many folks.
2173  Other / Off-topic / Re: [POLL] Donald Trumps IQ - let us know! on: April 27, 2020, 10:52:19 AM
This becomes dangerous when insecurity or narcissism means someone shuts off doubt and humility and is somehow able to convince people to give them some responsibility.  In Trump's case "I am wealthy and therefore successful* - and I am on TV" seems to have been what worked.

The Donald's IQ...  Less than his shoe size? 

OK, realistically - in the 70s if he took a test.  I doubt he is that mentally functional to get anything higher.

true dat.

best trump quote: "im the president and youre fake news!"

that says everything i need to know.

btw 70 IQ is probably spot on.
2174  Economy / Reputation / Re: [Plead] Phinnaeus Gage's User Moniker Manifested Due to a Malignant Brain Tumor on: April 27, 2020, 10:39:34 AM
I want to say something  irrelevant to this post.
Can Phinnaeus Gage's profile negative trust be removed now?



as much as i liked bruno i must admit he was an aquired taste (not that thats bad). and sometimes he went overboard on his odd sense of humor (again not a bad thing).

but negative trust removal.. i dislike revisionist history. even if some are not deserved.. those negative trust ratings will be ignored by anyone who knew bruno and does their own research.

brunos track record stands for itself. he was one of the great scambusters. no need to beautify it..
2175  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Recovery Suggestions Request (not the same old dribble) on: April 27, 2020, 10:31:17 AM
there are some legit folks who may be able to help. others should chime in with names.

BUT. wait till others vet those persons.

if i get the chance i will try to find a couple trustworthy (so far) persons.

again.. WAIT till others vett them and even then RESEARCH them.

and IGNORE PMs they will almost certainly be scams. only pay attention to public posts as those will be analyzed as to their effectiveness and honesty.
2176  Other / Off-topic / Re: [POLL] Donald Trumps IQ - let us know! on: April 27, 2020, 10:17:59 AM
It is definetly possible that Trump tries to look as stupid as possible to underestimate him.

I'd argue against that.

You have to play dumb - sure - to reach Trump's status.
But that doesn't make him smart.

In fact, it is exactly that.
He can only play dumb, and leave open the possibility that he is an underestimated smart guy, but in reality he is just average smart to see his best interest.
At least that's what he thinks, I suppose.

Btw, the best description imo would be: "morally ruthless", aka "businessman for president".

i read somewhere that trumps strategy is to DDOS the truth by putting out so many lies you cant even understand them anymore.. bury the truth in idiocy to hide it.

except hes to stupid to think of such a strategy. soooo... his being a straight up moron is the simplistic explanation.

i would LOVE to see his school transcripts. an average C- tops. and thats being generous.

I think it may have a hodl on me.  Roll Eyes  Opened a beer.. Ahh... forgot about the beer while cooking and poured some scotch.... Ahhh.... Finished the scotch and thinking dinner would go well with a glass of wine..Oh yes.. Ahhhh....  what's that?  oh yeah, there's my beer next to the green tea I started hours ago... Roll Eyes  All good, I got this...now, where's that joint.

err, joints are the 1st thing you hit. not the last.

well, before, during and after really.

man do i have to instruct everyone on how and when to smoke weed??

EDIT: smoking weed in front of a cop in a state thats its still illegal recreationally (what the actual fuck) is probably not recommended though (unless one has a medical card)
2178  Other / Off-topic / Re: [POLL] Donald Trumps IQ - let us know! on: April 25, 2020, 01:52:57 PM
yes, the negative IQ is a joke. but so is potus... so why not.

any corrections to the ranges i will be glad to fix.

i thought below IQs <60 needed help to use a bathroom correctly. but will check.

2179  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: April 25, 2020, 01:48:43 PM

ZOMG marketing email.

Take your protection seriously here are our new masks*



*small print do not use as a mask.

FS

been making some of our prefilters.

hint

buy pantyhose before they are gone. seems when rings cut out of the legs and worn over homemade masks it increase efficiency by helping seal the edges of the inner mask..  as less leaks around the edge seal.

and no just dont put them on in.. err.. well.. the "normal" place. #dyor

#nohomo    <forgot that

now P100s are the bomb but.. who has em and can keep up with carts
