Q: What are you doing to prepare for Coronavirus?
A: Nothing. Been prepared for many years.

The trick is to integrate preparation for edge cases into your normal routine. Do a little bit at a time rather than everything at once.

Maybe you do not have to enter a paranoid state, but you can get some ideas to be fine you and your family for a few days.

Just imagine finding a USB stick on the street, all crushed by passing cars, and taking it home, repairing it, and discovering that it contained the private key to thousands of BTC. Wet dream?

Has happened to me once (sans the BTC). Found the remains of a USB stick on the street (only the PCB had remained, and badly damaged). I tried to repair it, but couldn't. Could it have contained Satoshi's coins? No one will ever know.

I'm paranoid like that...

Paranoid people — at least those who think the issue through — don’t pick up random USB sticks found lying about.

heh yeah that worked for stuxnet.

of course badusb etc

i never use flashdrives that have been in other systems. i just destroy them if returned.

EDIT read only (ie finalized) cds are my friend.

Open it in knopix or a vm fs what can happen exactly?

Exactly. I always do this, and also use VM to test-drive apps before installing on my main (host) PC. No viruses, no malware, no corruptions, no problems!

Edit: ...and always disable AutoRun after a Windows installation.

We have power outages a few times a year because trees falling over power lines, because of heavy snow (yet to come this year) or storms (had enough already).
So to a certain amount we're prepped already over here, it should last us about up to two weeks (six person household).

People in our village are like:
Covid19: "Just a flu..."
No more beer: "We're all going to die!"
And it's even not as ironic as most of you might think  

Bitcoin: Looks like good support above $9.000, i'm starting to worry when it breaks through. At the time it's still easy hodling.

Or no more toilet rolls, maybe?

It's probably the madness of crowds that is of most concern...

There was one article about Wuhan that said a truck was held up and robbed of toilet rolls (can't find reference, or prove it, but it's anecdotally illustrative).  In the event of supply chain disruption, it may be simple stuff that you will miss most. 

With any hint of a lock down, as per a recent post by one of our Italian brothers showing a stripped supermarket - it's probably a good idea to have a decent stock of basic non-perishable food and basics like toilet rolls, first aid etc. - just so you don't have to actually go out to hunt down basics.  You can always use it up later, or give it to a food bank someday.

As for the state using the virus as an excuse for oppression?  Well, maybe we should take a leaf from Trump's playbook, he won't let the pesky bureaucrats take over, he's got it covered:

"In 2018, the Trump administration fired the government’s entire pandemic response chain of command, including the White House management infrastructure."

Well, Trump should about to be almost famous for the almost granted backfiring effects of his decisions and orders. A mad man in a critical age, on the top of a nation's administration. This is the reason for real democracies (let's say: more democratic, to be fair) to not rely on decisions of a single man or instance.

Toilet paper, drinking water, household water, rice, beans, noodles, chicken food (for egg/protein supply), dairy, candles, firewood, fuel, soap. Just like almost every cottage in the mountains would have stored somewhere. Plus we have a lot of farmers here (milk, meat, dairy), about 150 pounds of vegetables, fish and meat in the freezer(s). Next step is to up for photovoltaic panels, but i put half of the money into corn and also some fair amount into working memory training and therapy.
Always buy the soft toilet paper, in case you ever run out of paper tissues.

Activity 2422, you should be a veteran, general, major or whatever.... Don't frighten the n00bs 
Don't be affected by a dump/correction

Btw last time we past Vegeta we went up pretty fast, remember Vegeta is an iconic character with some real dragon ball Z powers.... One that doesn't let himself to be taken easily... Never saw the episodes? The guy is extremely powerful, probably BTC will be the only one to truly defeat him, time will tell when.

I am travelling right now
(Yes, travelling in CoronaVirus land, trying to avoid contagion).
I cannot get hold of the whole report, but looks interesting to me:

The team a @jpmorgan released a monster 74-page cryptocurrency report a few days ago.

Too long?

Here's a thread summarizing the best parts 👇

Dig twitter, there are already enough conspiracy theory followers on this book. The WHO warned about pandemics about 30 years ago, too.
It was about time, i'd say.
