Great time to shed some weight

Re: Corona Virus
 

I'm still waiting for one of us to admit to having the virus lol.

Re: Supermarkets limit food purchase
 

never seen anything like this before

Re: Corona Virus
 

I mean, I've had a runny nose for about 5 days now. No fever though so I think I'm good.

Those of us importing from China are probably at the highest risk.

Re: Corona Virus
 

so far, it appears it only last on surfaces for 3 hours to 3 days. 24 hours on cardboard and 2-3 days on plastic and stainless. With how long it takes for china packages to arrive, I think you'll be fine.

Re: Corona Virus
 

All of our inventory shipments arrive 2 days after being shipped.

I realize it's a very remote possibility that I contract covid from inventory, but my understanding is that Covid-19 can live on certain surfaces for up to 9 days. I can't let my inventory shipments sit around in the office for a week before opening them.. so I may not be fine after all. :noidea:

Communism works, on paper.

But the greedy turn it into what it always ends up as. :lol:

We must live beside the same damn tree! I can barely hear, my head is so stopped up! :lol:

Re: Corona Virus
 

Spray the packages down. Wear gloves when handing individual units that you might not wanna spray down.

Re: Corona Virus
 

anything can work on paper, if you input data that favors your proposition.

Re: Corona Virus
 

I'm saying there always that one asshole(at least) who doesn't wanna do his part, and wants to reap the benefits of everyone's work.

No data needed.

Human nature, so it will never work.

Re: Corona Virus
 

Exactly why Marxism will never work

Great idea in theory but simply never works in reality.

As for every man wanting to live off his own little plot of land without any outside interference. It would be great to see how well that works when something broke or when replacement parts were needed. The idea is very romanticised but in this day and age of interconnectivity it simply doesn't work. Im sure there are some really rural communities in the US and maybe Aus that have it to a degree but I bet they still have things from outside the community delivered. People may not life governments / the establishment but they serve a purpose. Its only isolated tribes that live like that these days and honestly thanks but no thanks to that way of living.

Re: Corona Virus
 

Yup!

It's one of the things I like about where I grew up, and my dad still lives there. He goes to town about once a week, if he has to. No neighbors. 0-5 vehicles pass his house a day.

It's literally like you're the only people in the world when you're there. lol

Re: Corona Virus
 

I bet he still has electricity and running water and that is the point really - these days everyone is reliant on big companies and the government is there to an extent to help regulate them.

Re: Corona Virus
 

Have you ever tried to change the filter in an AC v an air cleaner... ones is much harder especially if its integrated into a apartments walls and not stand alone.

Re: Corona Virus
 

Water is hauled in via pickup truck from a local waterfall (when the spring goes dry), but yes he has electricity.

Re: Corona Virus
 

And yes, this is in America lol

Re: Corona Virus
 

I bought me a badass filter a while back that also filters viruses and bacteria.

Re: Corona Virus
 

The rumor mill is now saying that our local government intends to announce in the next 48 hours that everything will be closed. Hopefully that isn't the case.. but my wife heard from somebody that works in local gov't.

Thankfully I was able to wire a payment this morning but I'll be in a world of sh!t if everything really closes. No mail, no inventory, no banks, nothing. :(

Re: Corona Virus
 

That's a little too much hearsay, for me.

Re: Corona Virus
 

But shutdowns ARE increasing, little by little.

Things have to change, though, else we will be at 1,000,000 cases in about 3 weeks.

Total lockdown would happen before they allowed that.
