CVN-71, now with over 95% of crew tested

fully 60% of positives are asymptomatic

let that sink in

Excellent news. Herd immunity usually kicks in around 65-70%.

So if we can infect that many people who have no symptoms, this thing will be wrapped up quite nicely quite quickly.

Lock up the immune compromised and let everyone out of their cages.

End of the pandemic.

Thanks for the great numbers. We're out of the woods on this now.

These are the best of the best, young, physically fit (for the most part) and pretty much zero medical conditions. Their immune systems are going to be among the best the population has.

The asymptomatic number and mortality rates are going to vary wildly depending on numerous factors. Look at most of Asia for instance where there are very few obese people and very few deaths from this compared to the fat ass west.

I don't know about your neck of the woods, but around here my door is fooking open to go as I please.
That said, shopping for food is stressful with everybody running around in masks and store drawing some ostensibly stupid marks that we are supposed to follow (in each aisle).

Besides , you did not get his point. it's not that 60% on the ship were infected, it is that 60% OF INFECTED were asymptomatic. Total % of infected was not there, but I kind of recall that it was, maybe, 10%.

 I don't think it means anything other than most are probably incubating the virus.  There was a statistic put out in early April by the WHO that 75% of people who tested positive but were asymptomatic went on to develop symptoms later.  Estimated median incubation period is 5.1 days.

So tired of people who have no clue, but have a "hunch".
Here is how a politician with a physics doctorate talks:

the link above was found in:

I don't even know her politics or prior decisions, but at least this logic makes sense to me.

A intense struggle along the 0.236 short fib today has both Bulls and Bears exhausted as we close the week out and head into weekend trading. Bulls are still seeking to break above $7.3k and Bears...well..they are just Bears and want your cheap coins. #dyor

easy there hoss

that could be the gin talking

[lightfoot]

yup.

remember when shopping was fun?

Yeah. At this point I won't go into a store without a P100 respirator. It shows I'm a person who thought ahead, but I really thought it would be nuclear particles I would be filtering, not biological. Go figure.

Now the real question: Why do women in masks turn me on? Do the Saudis have some sort of fucking point there?

So I have this mental health issue where I  just prefer to be socially isolated and converse anonymously online. (and usually drink alone and be a prick)
Hmmmm... in these times,  maybe it wasn't a mental health issue after all, but rather some weird evolutionary survival  gene I inherited....

[Hueristic]

just got back from our bi-weekly supply run, what a fucking chore

distancing with a shopping trolley is like playing a 90s 2D platformer

processing all the suspect packaging, re-dis-infecting the vehicle entry and control surfaces...pain in the bleeding ass


I wish I believed it would ever be "over"

yup.

remember when shopping was fun?

Nope, I was never a chick.

I think you store your private key in such a way is too risky. Your family members think it is not important to them. So they will not take care of your private key carefully. The possibility of losing will be very high. My solution is that you store in highly secure cloud storage applications that specialize in password management such as 1Password, Lastpass. The mechanism of these applications is 02-layer security. So you are assured of the security of your private key. Good luck.

^ WTF JJG you are meriting a post advising to store private keys in some third party cloud?

Repeat after me: https://youtube.com/watch?v=dnC5mFaIW3Q

Actually, you are correct that 1password or lastpass are probably better for just maintaining various passwords, and maybe some back up to authentication codes that allow the recovery of various passwords, but would not be good for private keys.   so yeah.. I just was thinking more about the password management aspect of that, so probably, I did not think through that scenario very well in terms of actually putting private keys in there....

I had not, actually, done anything like that for my private keys, but I have been finding the managing of passwords to be quite frustrating and so I was largely thinking about password managers as a kind of possible solution for getting some of the chaos of password managing in order.

I merited hung58 because I thought that he was bringing up some good points rather than my own thinking of following specifics, and in that regard, I also thought that hung58 made a decent point about the risk of giving too much information to some people (such as relatives or close friends) who might be kind of sloppy in their own managing of information, so if you give them your information, there is no real guarantee that they would be more protective of your information, and they might even be less protective of your information as compared with their own information...

Anyhow, it is not about NOT trusting those potential other persons, but the acknowledgement that some people are just sloppy as fuck with their own password management or even their personal information so if you give information to them regarding your personals, then maybe they end up posting that information on their fridge, but they make it more secure by posting it upside down, so that they don't forget that the information is important... which carries a decent amount of risk, too... which I believe is part of the issue (or potential problem) that hung58 was bringing out.

To keep it simple I suggest just using good old keypair encryption to back up keys.  To make it easy this is not a bad tool: https://gpg4usb.org/

You have a lot more choices than Mississippi or the Bay Area.  The United States has a seriously high cost of living compared to most other countries.  I'm sitting in a hotel penthouse with an entire wall of glass and a pretty good view.   Cost: $15 a night.  "Undisclosed location," as the saying goes, but you may be sure this isn't America.    Three weeks ago I was sitting at home in my place in the U.S.  When I saw countries all around the world closing down, I knew that if I wanted to get out of the U.S. I needed to act fast.  I found a country that was still issuing tourist visas and accepting American travelers.  I got out just in the nick of time.

 Come on man!  $15 a night for a luxe hotel?  Don't hold out on us.  That is cheap living!

It's a three star hotel.  I'll give you a clue.  The city is shut down completely on weekends, nobody is even allowed outside.  The only businesses allowed to open at the weekend are bakeries and pharmacies.  My fridge is full.

Thanks for Vital clue. This narrow down the search, Earthling....

...Paul Drake, who runs Drakes supermarket in Adelaide, says he gave the customer the middle finger after the man tried to return approximately 5,000 rolls of toilet paper and 150 one-litre bottles of hand sanitizer earlier this month....

Supply and demand is literally what bitcoin is built on. There is nothing wrong with trying to make a buck.

Yep.

Paul Drake had the supply and wasn't giving back the bucks he made.

 

But not letting people sell on Ebay makes no sense, If some people are willing to pay a higher price, then let them, their policy right now lets no one buy them and that just keeps necessary goods from entering the market, wich makes it even harder to find said goods.

Good news from Germany.

"Many people may already have immunity to coronavirus, German study finds".

"The findings suggest the mortality rate for the virus in Germany is just 0.37 per cent — five times lower than current estimates."
