And by the way, this whole transaction was conducted with me wearing my #N95 respirator because I never set foot into any public indoor space without. Maybe if #Covid stays as low as it is now for another year, but not yet.

Nobody paid the slightest attention to it.

#Hantavirus has made the IL Right to Mask Bill (SB3340) all the more urgent as folks seek to protect themselves from multiple concurrent disease outbreaks. Would you take 2 minutes to fill out this witness slip and mark yourself as a proponent of the bill? You can select “Record of Appearance Only” at the bottom to avoid providing testimony #humanrights #mask #N95 #covid19 #AndesVirus

Respirator masks like N95s will prevent hantavirus infection.

Clean air will drastically reduce hantavirus spread.

We already have the tools, people just need to use them.

Public health requires everyone’s participation.

“You do you” gets people killed

I am about a month of low #Covid levels from saying fuck it all and getting on with my life. Such is the evolution of the human brain to reason, based far more than on mere remembered facts about dreadful health damage being inflicted by this #virus, on emotion and contact with other human brains being carried about in close physical proximity

But I'm pretty sure I won't, and don't come at me with stuff about the #N95 making no difference in your life. They cover up the very part of you that other humans evolved to very carefully read and prevent you from taking part in millennia-old social. And if you are a minimizer who happened to stray into this quiet little space of ours, well, you are beneath my contempt.

Sorry about the rough mood and words. Got feelings today.

Just returning from 6 days of conference and meetings in Sydney. Conference had around 500 people.

I was the only one to #wearaN95mask the whole time. One other person did, but also ate with the group.

This is the largest gathering I've been to in several years, but I felt reasonably confident in my trusty #n95

Time will tell...

4/ You don’t want this virus in you because it could fuck up your immune system. That’s my blunt summary of Dr. Leonardi’s teachings, which helped cement my own resolve to never get infected if I can help it. So far, never have. My #N95 mask is a permanent part of my life now.

We now are seeing the devastation this virus has had on people’s immune systems. And there are now papers, few if any of which acknowledge Dr. Leonardi, I’m guessing, that document the very quantifiable result of all these mass infections.

He was right. And it didn’t do him much good. As far as I know, his warnings didn’t help his career any. They certainly didn’t help his popularity.

Catch of the Day: The Golden Nokia Years! 📱👑

Hey Retro Fans!

Today, our log files are taking us on a wonderful nostalgia trip back to the time before every phone was just a slab of black glass. We had a visit from Opera (Version 8.65) on Symbian OS!

Long before iOS or Android conquered the world, Symbian was the absolute and undisputed king of early "smartphones." Just think of devices like the legendary Nokia N95, the Sony Ericsson P-series, or the folding Nokia Communicators!

In an era when the mobile internet often consisted only of rudimentary (and incredibly expensive) WAP text pages, the Opera Mobile browser on Symbian was an absolute revolution. It allowed users to render the "real," full desktop internet on a phone screen. The fact that someone is still connecting their old Symbian device to Wi-Fi (or even a GPRS/3G network) today to surf the Frog pond makes our retro hearts skip a beat.

Don't forget your T9 keyboards!
