  1. He's used far stronger stuff than tea to relax - helps him generate bespoke content
  2. seems to me this virus isnt slightly out of the ordinary, most harmful strain for decades possibly.
  3. so all the covid associated deaths - most of these people were about to die anyway?
  4. When we restart the economy millions will die due to smug smog from the SUVs Every year around 78,000 people in the UK die from smoking, with many more living with debilitating smoking-related illnesses. Smoking increases your risk of developing more than 50 serious health conditions.
  5. ^appeasement.org - wow a new website all these people who criticise the government response, if they had any fire in their bellies they would dedicate their lives to politics and try with everything they've got to change things, instead of just sniping from the sidelines, pathetic
  6. The mumber of new cases each day can't stay up around 4000-6000 for many more years before we've all had a dose
  7. Someone yesterday said to me never buying anything made in China again. Maybe he won't ever get a new smartphone. Is there one without any components made in China?
  8. All those who say 'I'm never buying anything from China again' - what if it turns out one of their companies are first to develop an effective vaccine?
  9. I've already had enough punishment for not studying hard enough thanks - a lifetime of donkey work. Working in great big gardens for rich people and always thinking if only I'd tried harder at school. Still, lots of rich businessmen have died in helicopter crashes...
  10. playing Rambo... A botched attempt to topple the regime of Nicolás Maduro with an invasion using fishing dinghies has ended with two American mercenaries in jail and eight people dead, the Venezuelan government has claimed. State television showed two dishevelled men, named as Airan Berry, 41, and Luke Denman, 34. Both are understood to have served in the US special forces. They were among 13 people the government says were captured following two landings by small boats along Venezuela’s Caribbean coastline. “They were playing Rambo. They were playing hero,” said President Maduro, referring to the Hollywood action film series.
  11. balk noun [ C ] (UK also baulk) UK /bɔːk/ US /bɑːlk/ balk noun [C] (WOOD) a rough, thick piece of wood 12x12x12= 1728 cubic inches per foot (39x12)+6 = 468 inches long ((12x3)+7)squared = 1849 square inches in cross section, so volume = 468x1849=865,332 cubic inches = 865,332/1728 = 500.77 cubic feet without a calculator, wearing a few old rags and malnourished would have been fun
  12. LONDON (Reuters) - Britain has overtaken Italy to report the highest official death toll from coronavirus in Europe with more than 32,000 deaths, figures released on Tuesday showed.
  13. if the above is representative, then it's back to the drawing board for GCHQ - they will have to find another way to suck the lifeblood out of us in bitwise fashion
  14. they want to use bluetooth proximity to find people who have been in range of a positive person. anyone willing to cooperate will have to switch on bluetooth to start with and then comply immediately if they get a message from the app to say their device picked up a signal from the phone of an infected person so they must now isolate themselves with immediate effect. walking along the back of the checkouts towards the exit may be a good place for getting these encrypted randomised tags stored in your phone. the technical side of it, involving bluetooth range and speed, may or may not mirror genuine risk of infection from proximity to a contagious person. Re spyware - if you want to comply with the initiative, it is a trivial task to back up your data and contacts with the idea of performing a factory reset after the contact tracing is done with. Unless you're a terrorist, or worse, what is there of any interest to worry about? Maybe its going to hoover up email passwords and banking etc. Change them?
  15. Good article. Goes to show Cummings not the only one thinking about herd immunity. I dont get the idea of a weaker mutant evolving as it needs live carriers to spread. I mean I get the premise of greater reproductive potential, but past pandemics seem to have supported new harmful mutants esp Spanish Flu. The Chinese were recently in the news with their secret virus lab in Wuhan. Seems the scientists in US have been playing with fire too. If these experimental mutants ever do get out of the lab.... https://amp.theguardian.com/science/2014/jun/11/crazy-dangerous-creation-deadly-airborne-flu-virus
  16. if a country existed that had banned tourism, emigration, immigration, business travel, they could still have freight deliveries and just leave it for 3 days to fester before onward haulage in case there is virus aboard. No £300 billion bailout package needed. Chinese tourists probably sneezing and coughing all over London back in January, February, March. Italy had the rag trade - where the rich Italians in Lombardy get the peasants out in China to make the cheap fashion items, so the Italians constantly flying to Wuhan overseeing the factories.
  17. yes in the interest of public health pleasure/business travellers and economic migrants should all be persecuted equally. If no one leaves nor does the virus. Don't let the UK citizens abroad return either - gotta be some collateral damage if we are to stamp out Covid-19 completely
  18. wow that is some degree to do - I thought I could manage it, but only got as far as a physics diploma with OU, it was more than I could grasp. Always wanted to know what is the fundamental physical difference between a positive and nagative charge - how does this cause the electrostatic interaction. Exactly why do unlike charges attract. I never had the focus to study enough to find out if there is an answer. Probably needs a mind like an industrial laser.
  19. Labour would surely have spent us into an even worse state UK Covid-19 business bailouts have already cost more than £100bn Office for Budget Responsibility database will track cost of Rishi
  20. why do you always cleave to the quotidian?
  21. give him an epidural to simulate paralysis
  22. Machine starting but attachments and shaft not turning. On reassembling clutch after torquing screws to 12nm the shoes dont seem to pry apart easily, but when screws undone a bit shoes can pr prized open. I have replaced washers on back between shoes and plate 4180 stihl powerhead
  23. Way to go triple O. What about the thing with brains in a vat? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brain_in_a_vat
