@broadwaybabyto In my county in WA state, about between 2 and 3% of the people in the county's ERs have been there because of Covid and that's been true for over 3 straight months, so the ER is EXACTLY the place to pick up Covid.
@broadwaybabyto I hate so much that people who are against active euthanasia claim that it would lead to medical staff lazily recommending it over treatment, and then awful people like this have to go and prove them right.
Does this doctor not know that the main points of spread for original SARS in 2003 were hospitals and clinics? Is he not aware of issues with streptococcus spread in hospitals? Is he not aware that people with illnesses ... have reasons to go to places that treat illnesses?
Hopefully the hospital has better air filtering and overall cleanliness than anywhere else in town, but to think that further precautions against catching an infection are ridiculous is ... ridiculous.
I hope you are able to reprimand this person in some way.
Some friends decided to buy shovels and go to the southern #Poland to help with the #flood cleanup.
I'm asking them to first call the local crisis centers and NGOs and ask what do they need. Bringing some electronic components for failing water pumps, power banks, setting up provisional infrastructure might help much more than being just another person with a shovel.
Oh! I've been wondering why Swedes call secondary school "gymnasium" when in English that makes you think of weightlifting.
So it's not just a Scandinavian quirk.
The word γυμνάσιον (gumnásion), from Greek γυμνός (gumnós) 'naked' or 'nude', was first used in Ancient Greece, in the sense of a place for both physical and intellectual education of young men. The latter meaning of a place of intellectual education persisted in many European languages (including Albanian, Bulgarian, Czech, Dutch, Estonian, Greek, German, Hungarian, Macedonian, Polish, Russian, Scandinavian, Croatian, Serbian, Slovak, Slovenian and Ukrainian), whereas in other languages, like English (gymnasium, gym) and Spanish (gimnasio), the former meaning of a place for physical education was retained.
@alienghic Yeah, I wonder, how much higher is the energy cost and monetary cost of extracting CO₂ from fresh air compared to supplying low-CO₂ power to the emission source? Am I wrong in assuming that it's definitely higher?
Looks like actually v1.0 might have been an ISO standard already, if not then it was definitely prepared for that purpose, as it explicitly brings up ISO terminology and process:
Now di Cosmo's part. I only missed a few minutes of it, but that's when he mentioned that the Software Hash Identifier (SWHID) that Heritage uses is now a draft ISO standard:
Maybe you guessed it, but "floor 2" is the new update and it has the rooms 101–200. The big bosses are in room 150 and room 200, with other special challenges and chases in the rooms directly preceding them. (without spoiling too much)
Pillay talks about the ways to contribute, including purchasing software from vendors, about the interaction between community and commerce, and how clients prefer vendors that are active participants in the community.
Now he *finally* managed to pass the final scene and all of floor 2.
By now so many are playing floor 2 that 5k people finished it for the first time just yesterday. In total so far, 156k people made it, that's 0.3% of everyone who ever played the game.
