Drug cartels across Mexico and all around Central and South America have announced they are ceasing production of heroin, meth, and cocaine, saying they are now producing a far more lucrative drug with the street name of "hand sanitizer."

The tiger, a 4-year-old female Malayan tiger named Nadia, developed a dry cough and a decrease in appetite.

Yep, i also heard that cats can get infected, while dogs were found to be passive spreaders. They don't get infected but can carry the virus on Nostrils.

Stinkin' hot today.
Thirty seven in the shade
But that is okay.

We've got a lovely
Working air conditioner
Keeping us chilled out.

The beer is ice cold...
Modelo Barrilito.
Lucky to get it.

Let's be positive.
Play it safe and quarantine.
Life's good. Thanks Bitcoin.

Boris got it a week ago but heard was recovering.
I guess her speech got under his nerves.
That 6666th post should go right to the wall on that thread in meta.

People start to go downhill properly right around the time he's popped off to hospital himself.

And it's not as if we're going to get the full truth. Perhaps a ten hour Twitter feed of his blue face and bulging eyes would convince more people to knuckle down.

[sirazimuth]

You are just not on my level.

Too right I'm not , I never go that low.

Look, do you want to have a debate in good faith?

No thanx, In case you havn't noticed I dont debate folks on this thread, I just call em as I see em.

Or do you just wanna insult people?

Calling you intelligent is insulting you? Whatever man....

We can do either.

Fuck off , hows that?

At least he will have the best medical attention possible and guaranteed access to a ventilator in case he needs it. And concentrated oxygen just so he isn't short of breath even if his symptoms are mild. WTF he would surely even be hooked to one of the very few available "artificial lung" blood oxygenator if needed.

Also I am sure everyone around him will be using top-notch PPE's to make sure to not increase his viral load.

He will be fine.

P.S.: Not that I don't understand why we need to give the best service possible to "our" leaders... but just saying.

One of my relatives (41 years of age) just died in New York of COVID19.

Thanks to those who expressed condolences; I really appreciate it guys. It means a lot to me.

TBH, it's really hard for me to believe it. He was so effing fit and healthy. I only talked to him once in a few years, but in the last few months, we were in regular talks as I had plans of visiting NYC later this year as a tourist and he wanted to welcome me & give the tour of the city.

P.S. I really shouldn't have posted this:

Am I the only one? Is there any Wall Observer whose relatives got affected by Corona?

[jbreher]

Hopefully, Bruno is not disadvantaged by you dumping that shit on him.. .

In light if the fact that he posted a BCH address explicitly for donations for this purpose, your postulated scenario seems rather unlikely.

[JayJuanGee]

Wow, didn't realise what I posted would cause so much drama. Apologies for that. All I meant by it is that those morons in that video suffer from the same selective reasonings and echo chamber mentality that (most) bcashes also fall victim to. A quick visit to the /r/btc subreddit will show you just that. That doesn't mean BCH doesn't work and that you can't transfer value... just that the reasonings for its existence are flawed and serve to push an agenda. Maybe I shouldn't have tried to shoe horn a BCH dig into a matter so serious; I'll think differently next time

Raja, I'm sorry mate, terrible news, thoughts are with you

Hey, heslo.  To the extent that you are kicking yourself (or apologizing) at any level for denigrating bcash or any of its variants, or bringing up the topic in a negative way, you should not feel any regrets.

Fuck bcash and its variant other shitcoin similitudes and other shitcoins too.  Fuck them all, and fuck the complications that might come in the event that you might receive some shitcoin and have to figure out how to cash it out for fiat or for bitcoin.

Yeah, some of us might be able to dance our way around some of these shitcoins, but frequently we might end up in some kind of vulnerability or some other bullshit when we are trying to deal with some of the shitcoins which might be o.k. for some of the more hard core bitcoiners amongst us, but surely could either fuck some other people up or turn them off to bitcoin too when they end up getting screwed over by some shitcoin, aka just like corona virus in several comparable ways.

I'm not sorry for shitting on BCH, I'm sorry for the drama I caused in here by saying it. Now probably isn't the time for everyone to be at each other arguing talking points, especially with all the shit going on. But yeah, you're right, fuck them all

You cannot really avoid fights in here, and many of us are NOT purposefully provoking.  At least, I don't claim to be purposefully provoking - even though sometimes (or maybe a bit more than necessary) I might engage with a topic or a post, when it would be totally reasonable just to let the post stand, and not engage with it. 

Opinions can differ too in regards to how to talk about shitcoins or even whether to mention shitcoins, so perhaps arguably, you could have employed a different analogy in order to NOT necessarily trigger that kind of discussion, so maybe in that regard, a lesson could be learned, but those kinds of decisions are completely discretionary, and I suppose that if there is a pattern we might start to believe that heslo is a shit-stirrer.. hahahahaha... perhaps?  Perhaps?

Sure, I understand also that tensions are likely quite high, including if people are getting sick, getting exposed to sick people, cooped up in their houses and maybe not really in a preferable situation and even losing work or income while various investments are going down in price, including BTC (or at least uncertainties regarding whether BTC is going to rebound or maybe even get drug down more than we had previously thought to be possible, so even with a rebound, we cannot really rest assured about how to deal with its future price performance potential, or even weighing that with our other investments, if any).

By the way, we don't even really have jonoiv to pick on because he ended up being (kind of) correct about sub $6k, and he even seemed to chime in about being able to buy back his .5BTC or whatever it was that he had sold in the $6k territory that we had previously considered to have had been quite unlikely to be revisiting such prices...  In any event, even jonoiv was not very specific about what he did exactly, and if he had bought back everything or continued to wait, but at the same time, a lot of members here did not have a lot of will power to try to razzle him or to interrogate him because many of us probably had been in some level of shock and might even continue to be in some kind of level of ongoing shock and rattled status.   Go figure.

Oh I'm definitely a shit stirrer Just didn't mean to be in this instance

[jbreher]

Wow, didn't realise what I posted would cause so much drama. Apologies for that.

No problem. I'll reciprocate with apologies for my rash name calling (quickly edited, but still not before quoted).

All I meant by it is that those morons in that video suffer from the same selective reasonings and echo chamber mentality that (most) bcashes also fall victim to.

While I have no normative statistics to which I can point, I am convinced the average BCR-er knows a fuckton more about BTC than your average BTC-er knows about BCH. Why would you trust me on this? Maybe because I'm the one in this interaction that spends time in both said communities.

A quick visit to the /r/btc subreddit will show you just that.

ALL of reddit is a cesspool. This surprises you?

That doesn't mean BCH doesn't work and that you can't transfer value... just that the reasonings for its existence are flawed and serve to push an agenda.

No, BCH's reason for existence is as a means of transferring value. Specifically, an uncensorable one that does not collapse in functionality as demand for its use rises. How is this flawed? You're still way off base.

[Cryptotourist]

You are just not on my level.

Too right I'm not , I never go that low.

You don't. But he drags you.

Look, do you want to have a debate in good faith?

No thanx, In case you havn't noticed I dont debate folks on this thread, I just call em as I see em.

Ibi doesn't see it that way. He likes pickles.

Or do you just wanna insult people?

Calling you intelligent is insulting you? Whatever man....

Yes. Don't do that. He is deeply offended.

We can do either.

Fuck off , hows that?

Now he's ecstatic, that's why it's best to ignore.

[jbreher]

By the way, we don't even really have jonoiv to pick on because he ended up being (kind of) correct about sub $6k,

For which you excoriated him/her incessantly, and even browbeat anyone who pointed out that your behavior in that regard was offensive. Does that paragraph serve in your mind as the apology to jonoiv that any claim to civil decency would require?

[JayJuanGee]

Hopefully, Bruno is not disadvantaged by you dumping that shit on him.. .

In light if the fact that he posted a BCH address explicitly for donations for this purpose, your postulated scenario seems rather unlikely.

Fair enough... That is surely a relevant fact that I had not recalled at the time that I wrote out my response to you... Yet, my other points are likely fair, including pointing out d_eddie's mentioning gresham's law and also concerns about the problematic nature of other people receiving that crap who might NOT have asked for it (which was not the situation in Bruno's case specifically, as you said).

Wow, didn't realise what I posted would cause so much drama. Apologies for that.

No problem. I'll reciprocate with apologies for my rash name calling (quickly edited, but still not before quoted).

No need to prop up your purported bcasher knowledge here... it is largely irrelevant, because the vast majority of the time none of us gives more than two shits about that crapcoin..  except maybe from time to time when it seems to be dragging on the BTC price, which sometimes does happen with some of the drama over there, whether bcash or bcash SV.

By the way, we don't even really have jonoiv to pick on because he ended up being (kind of) correct about sub $6k,

I stand by my earlier posts.  I was just bringing up jonoiv as an example of a situation that related to what I had mentioned earlier.  Of course, your spin, to the extent that you are being genuine here, is different than my understanding of the situation, but of course, it is NOT really beyond you to engage in white knighting when you believe that it might serve your purpose(s) in some way, including potentially attempting to try to minimize your own shitcoin pumping behaviors and other disingenuous misleading posts in regard to bullshit BIG block theories and purported utility or justifications for the existence of bcash variants, as if they had started for some kind of noble and genuine purpose besides just serving as an attack vector against bitcoin and other means to mislead people in regards to the value of bitcoin rather than the various bullshit snake oils that those bcash variants happen to be.

Let's not and say we did.  

 In other words, did someone die and put you in charge?
