One mild disagreement. When you say that "Covid is no different there than the flu" you're forgetting that Covid is different in one significant way - There's a failed vaccine for Covid.
I believe that at least some of those "long-suffering children" probably do have lingering physical problems. But those problems came from the shot, not the virus. Posted by: Wally at March 17, 2024 04:13 AM (f45Vt) Posted by: Downunder Bird Bathers at March 17, 2024 04:16 AM (v+0wn) 5

Local "news": "After reportedly driving a pickup truck off the landing terminal, a person in Chalmette was made the subject of a Coast Guard search crew Saturday. St. Bernard Parish officials closed the ferry Saturday morning as a result of the investigation into the accident and the search."
This is the ferry that crosses the river from near the famous Chalmette Battlefield ("In 1814 we took a little trip, along with Colonel Jackson down the mighty Mississip' . . ."), over to close by where I live. It must have happened on the East Bank side. He was drunk or high, I'll warrant. They called off the search yesterday afternoon. There was a report of someone seen swimming away from the truck, but no description. Look for the wet guy! Posted by: Wolfus Aurelius, Dreaming of Elsewhere at March 17, 2024 05:58 AM (omVj0) 77

I've had it since 1997, and it was vintage even then -- the brand has been out of business for much longer.)

Yesterday I saw some of these Lume (Loo-May) deodorant products at Walmart. Not cheap. They didn't have the "Mando" stuff which is supposed to be for the male half of the population, or I might have been willing to try one. Though at $14, they'd better work really well.

no doubt many people are truly bothered by these things, but I also think some people make allergy claims to garner attention Posted by: Don Black at March 17, 2024 07:38 AM (oCjPU) I wonder if it is a repeated exposure allergy. In chem, and maybe in hazardous material handling training, I remember people mentioning that certain substances are fine enough for some people, but repeated exposure to them and you can develop irritation/allergies. So the TLV might be one value for first time exposure, but after repeated exposures below that, the TLV can lower. I seemed to develop that with regards to Tomato. After about 12 years in tomato food related industries, I noticed that my hands would get irritated and itchy if I got Tomato paste or juice on them or develop blisters in my mouth if I ate something that was pasty. Thankfully, when I changed jobs it seems to have subsided a bit, but I still cannot eat tomato soup. Posted by: Aetius451AD at March 17, 2024 07:45 AM (di6C2) 222

Fen,
Edge (Microsoft) and Chrome (Google) are both browser programs that allow you to read the websites you connect to. Both browsers have default search engines. MS uses Bing and Chrome uses Google. You can use another search engine (web page) with either. You can set up your browser through the "Settings" or you can just open a tab to the search engine you want. I use Duck Duck Go but other proper use Brave and there are a few others. I think Duck Duck Go offers a browser now too so you can just download it and use it like Chrome or Edge.

What Tyson foods did to residents in Iowa is one of the worst things we’ve seen a company do. The Bud Light Dylan Mulvaney situation was pathetic, but this is 100x worse.
They announced Monday that they’ll be closing the plant in June, shocking the entire town. 1200 people, 15% of the entire town, works at the plant. They’re all going to be unemployed now. Simultaneously, Tyson is also working with an Asylum advocate group to hire 2,500 asylum seekers who are cleared to work. They’ll make $16.50/hr and get benefits. https://t.co/1fOkbos2vv / X (twitter.com) Posted by: Ciampino - How can an illegal alien be cleared to work? at March 17, 2024 08:27 AM (qfLjt) 298

There are 353 counties in 29 states with voter registrations exceeding "100 percent" of the US Census eligible voters population.
This is a true statement you will see "fact checked" in several ways: 1. Well not all those registered actually voted. 2. You are relying on census number that may be wrong (haha then your state rep and us rep counts are wrong). 3. You cannot compare a known list (registered voters) to a raw count of people. BTW, some numbers: Alabama: Lowndes County (130%) Colorado: Statewide (102%); San Juan County (158%) Georgia: Bryan County (118%); Forsyth County (114%); *New Mexico: Harding County (177%) Texas: Loving County (187%); Presidio County (149%); McMullen County (147%) Posted by: rhennigantx at March 17, 2024 08:31 AM (ENQN6) 307

""South Carolina again topped the list with completed foreclosures up 51% compared to a year ago."
Most folks who are not from South Carolina only experience the Tri-County, Charleston Berkely Dorchester county area. And are left with the impression of wealth and a relatively high standard of living. Unfortunately, much of the State is rural, and very poor. I can travel far less than a half mile from our home, and find folks living in dilapidated trailers from the 70's. And the north-easters coming in are causing the price of homes to go absolutely insane, and beyond the affordability of many.

People tend to forget that viruses attack certain body cells types and that when cured, people can still have residual damage. But that's the damage that was done, not an on going infection. Several years ago there was a weird little mosquito-borne virus (they think) that showed up in the DFW area, infected a few people then went away. It affected the brain and suddenly people just couldn't function properly. We had friends where the wife got it and suddenly forgot how to drive home. She called her husband crying and they finally figured out where she was. It took months before she was "over", the virus. But it left scars so to speak, her bright personality went away, and now she's prone to mild depression. This is different than "long covid" which does seem to be the provence of broken people.

Tyson facilities in this area (and there's a bunch of 'em) were raided frequently by ICE some years back. Often times plants would lose enough people where they had to cut a shift. There was an apartment building in Fort Smith, maybe two dozen units, that would suddenly be vacant after such raids.

She was half Norwegian/half Italian, a delightful mash-up. Strawberry blond wavy hair, beautiful white skin, almost translucent, about 5'9". We went out several times, but then just drifted apart.

When a local accidentally falls into the rendering machine at Tyson, the remains are fished out and the family has a funeral. Meanwhile the machine contents are dumped. If an illegal alien falls in they just render it with the chicken. Nobody knows who he really is or where from - remember al lot of them dump their real I.D.s at the border. Won't be missed.

"In the coming months, Kamala and I will be making the case how Americans are better off than four years ago. How we got so much though the pandemic, turned around the economy, reestablished America's leadership in the world all without encouraging the American people to inject bleach," Biden said, referencing Trump suggesting "injecting" disinfectant to kill COVID in 2020. "All without destroying the economy, embarrassing us around the world or itching for insurrection," he added. "Look, I wish these were jokes but they're not."

RE: Star Citizen -
The news about "approaching 1.0" is (unsurprisingly) inaccurate. What's really going on is that Chris Roberts - the individual in charge - has announced that there is a roadmap to 1.0. He has not revealed a time table, or anything of that nature. So it's still unknown when the game is coming out, and there are still a number of features that need to be added (something that I am aware of, as I occasionally play the alpha). But they now have a solid map of how they're going to get it all into the game. Now having said all of the above, something will be out soonish. Squadron 42, the single-player space combat sim that's set in Star Citizen, was declared feature complete last fall. No official release date has been announced, but it is expected that the game will be out by the end of 2025. SQ42's feature complete status has meant that many developers working on that game are now assisting with Star Citizen. And the Star Citizen team has also just announced that they've successfully cleared one of the biggest hurdles - server meshing. These two items are likely why Roberts feels confident enough to announce this 1.0 roadmap. Posted by: junior at March 17, 2024 01:41 PM (UdJl+) 372
Minx has a roadmap to V 1.0.
