DaemonFC[m]I make Mandy use hand sanitizer before he gets in the car, throw all of his clothes straight into the bin when he comes home, then go right to the shower and scrub down.Jul 03 00:00
AVRSgloves must be cheap thenJul 03 00:00

AVRSbut then you have a car, and using gloves is not that hard compared to the usefulnessJul 03 00:01
cybrNauti just noticed most of my hand sanitizer is 70%, which is good enough apparently.  I do have one bottle of 62%, and I was told we have 90% isopropal somewhere.. should i add that?  anything else?Jul 03 00:01
AVRScybrNaut: isoprop_y_l, isopropanolJul 03 00:02
DaemonFC[m]Between gloves, hand sanitizer, and the three masks, I've managed to avoid the virus, and so has he.Jul 03 00:02
DaemonFC[m]So it's about having a procedure and sticking to it and not letting your guard down.Jul 03 00:02
DaemonFC[m]Then sooner or later everyone around you will have gotten it.Jul 03 00:02
cybrNautnow i wonder if the grocer-provided wet wipes are sufficientJul 03 00:03
DaemonFC[m]I don't trust that someone making minimum wage sanitized my cart.Jul 03 00:03
cybrNautwell in our case no one does that.. they have a big dispensor of wipes and we just help ourselvesJul 03 00:04
DaemonFC[m]That's part of Mandy's job. Sanitizing the carts at Walmart.Jul 03 00:04
cybrNautand my grocer had been doing this for years, so they may not have researched whether it's sufficient for the virusJul 03 00:04
DaemonFC[m]He actually does do it.Jul 03 00:04
DaemonFC[m]Most of them just go play on their phone in the restroom.Jul 03 00:04
DaemonFC[m]That's why I wouldn't trust that it's even being done.Jul 03 00:04
AVRShm, isoprop(yl)+al(cohol) ≈ isopropal, okJul 03 00:06
AVRSmaybe chemically wrong, but oh well, no ideaJul 03 00:06

schestowitzDaemonFC[m]: 51k cases nowJul 03 00:07
schestowitz5000 deaths so far todayJul 03 00:08
schestowitzstill not taking the numbers down, on averageJul 03 00:08
DaemonFC[m]Well, it's like 610 deaths today in the US, but I think we'll start seeing that number go up quite a bit sometime next week.Jul 03 00:09
DaemonFC[m]It takes 15-40 days to ultimately kill people usually after a diagnosis.Jul 03 00:10
MinceRchemically wrongJul 03 00:10
DaemonFC[m]So we're a few days off from seeing the figures come in from when it started getting really bad again.Jul 03 00:10
schestowitzI saw articles today aboyt Houston TXJul 03 00:10
schestowitzThey're running out of capacity/bedsJul 03 00:11
schestowitzor ran out alreadyJul 03 00:11
schestowitzso I guess FL might be the sameJul 03 00:11
MinceR"isopropanol" and "isopropyl alcohol" are both correct, thoughJul 03 00:11
MinceRwell, except apparently IUPAC considers "isopropanol" to be wrongJul 03 00:11
MinceR:)Jul 03 00:11
MinceRthey do consider "propan-2-ol" to be correct thoughJul 03 00:12
DaemonFC[m]So much about "corralling" the virus.Jul 03 00:14
DaemonFC[m]Yee haw. Ride 'em cowboy!Jul 03 00:14
DaemonFC[m]Yippee Ki Yay, motherfucker!Jul 03 00:14
MinceR:>Jul 03 00:14
cybrNautmy wipes have 0 alcohol or bleach.. only ammonium chloride -- will that work or am i just pissing in the wind?Jul 03 00:17
DaemonFC[m]Alcohol, chlorine bleach, or hydrogen peroxide are all effective.Jul 03 00:18
DaemonFC[m]Don't mix them, obviously.Jul 03 00:18
DaemonFC[m]Or inject them, or inhale them.Jul 03 00:18
DaemonFC[m]Trump voters.Jul 03 00:18
MinceR:>Jul 03 00:19
DaemonFC[m]Or drink fish tank cleaner.Jul 03 00:19
AVRSsuperglue + cotton… no virus, I guess… only cinderJul 03 00:19
cybrNautmy hydrogen peroxide is no longer fizzy.. i think that means it's uselessJul 03 00:19
MinceRneutron bombs work tooJul 03 00:19
MinceRbut gamma ray bursts work betterJul 03 00:19
AVRSwait, that's not an English meaning of that wordJul 03 00:19
AVRSashesJul 03 00:20
DaemonFC[m]I'm sure the police thought there was something fishy going on there when fish tank cleaner guy's wife drank some too and didn't die.Jul 03 00:20
DaemonFC[m]Sometimes people will poison themselves a little bit to throw off suspicions.Jul 03 00:20
DaemonFC[m]There was a case where a guy killed his wife by leaving the car running in the garage while he slept in another room with the vents closed and the windows open.Jul 03 00:21
DaemonFC[m]Then he called 911 and said he found his wife dead.Jul 03 00:21

DaemonFC[m]The cops didn't even notice the soot until they were going over crime scene photos later and one of them said "What's that?".Jul 03 00:29

DaemonFC[m]Maybe up to 30 million people have or have had it by now.Jul 03 01:05
DaemonFC[m]About 1 in 10 of the US population.Jul 03 01:06
DaemonFC[m]It takes something like 70% to reach herd immunity.Jul 03 01:06
DaemonFC[m]I think we could be talking a million dead.Jul 03 01:06
DaemonFC[m]More maybe.Jul 03 01:07
DaemonFC[m]We still don't know how long immunity is for or how good it is.Jul 03 01:07
DaemonFC[m]My guess is that at some point, the death rate will crash though because it's picked off all the people most likely to die from it and because people have been exposed.Jul 03 01:08
DaemonFC[m]There's virtually no chance we get a working vaccine in time to matter much.Jul 03 01:08

DaemonFC[m]Wunderbar!Jul 03 01:17
DaemonFC[m]I remember commercials like the ones we're seeing now.Jul 03 01:20
DaemonFC[m]Tide running ads that say it's worth it to pay more for their detergent because the others are "watered down".Jul 03 01:20
DaemonFC[m]Ironically, they make a watered down Tide called Tide Basic.Jul 03 01:20

DaemonFC[m]Potbelly: Got Paycheck Protection Act money....Files Bankruptcy anyway...Gives CEO bonus money.Jul 03 01:25
MinceRdo they also make a product called Tide Acidic?Jul 03 01:26
DaemonFC[m]Trolling the bankruptcy court seems to be standard practice, if you're a corporation.Jul 03 01:26
DaemonFC[m]MinceR: Nice,Jul 03 01:26
DaemonFC[m]Anyway, mom uses it. I told her I tried it and I just didn't like how it made my clothes smell.Jul 03 01:26
DaemonFC[m]It'll get dirt, sweat, etc. out of them, but they don't smell good, and it's pretty much useless on stains.Jul 03 01:27
DaemonFC[m]So I just spend more on orange box Tide.Jul 03 01:27
DaemonFC[m]Amazon has a very concentrated gel version in a bag-in-box setup.Jul 03 01:27
DaemonFC[m]Seems factual, at least. They are the most expensive detergent brand on the shelf, but you only use about half (or, now, a third) as much.Jul 03 01:29
DaemonFC[m]They seem to have it priced about the same per load whether you go powder or liquid. Jul 03 01:31
DaemonFC[m]It used to be that the powder was the way to minimize the per-load price.Jul 03 01:32
DaemonFC[m]I guess now that they finally finished sucking all the water out of the liquid stuff, the economics are somewhat different.Jul 03 01:32
DaemonFC[m]Back in the 90s you got these really massive jugs of detergent, but you had to use an entire giant cap full of it to get your clothes done.Jul 03 01:33
DaemonFC[m]Now you use like 3-4 ounces, maybe.Jul 03 01:33
DaemonFC[m]The powder was probably cheap because there was no liquid in it to give them those ridiculously huge jug sizes so that it looked like they had "more stuff" inside than the other guy.Jul 03 01:33
DaemonFC[m]MinceR: So then Walmart gets pissed off because they're devoting so much truck and warehouse and floor space to these giant bottles of detergent.Jul 03 01:35
DaemonFC[m]So they actually demanded that they all knock it off and go on an ad blitz to inform people of why the laundry soap bottle was smaller.Jul 03 01:36
DaemonFC[m]Because they had spent years killing the planet to water down your detergent to convince you that you got MOAR.Jul 03 01:36
DaemonFC[m]I always joked about how in 2020 or so we'd have 10 gallon jugs of Tide to do 50 loads of laundry.Jul 03 01:37
DaemonFC[m]That was the way it was heading. :)Jul 03 01:37
schestowitzwow, 57k nowJul 03 01:39
schestowitzmight make it to 60kJul 03 01:40

DaemonFC[m]schestowitz Well, bankruptcy court is the endgame here for business and people alike.Jul 03 01:41

schestowitzMinceR: eitherJul 03 01:42
schestowitzor sort of linear "plus"Jul 03 01:43
DaemonFC[m]Yeah, I guess that diner here in Waukegan that puts pubes in your omelet won't make it.Jul 03 01:43
schestowitzthe "plus" because people don't act totally reckless, most still try to contain the spreadJul 03 01:43

First with COVID-19 and the closing of the schools I lost the job, thought would be ok as I had saved enough for nearly 3 month living and at least I would find something in this 3 months. I did run nearly out of it then I found something, a company I applied for more then 12 months ago. The problem a stable internet connection been needed, normally not that problem here, except the house I did live in.Jul 03 06:49
schestowitzBecause the house owner doesnt care, I told him a day as the internet wasnt available for 4 days that this cant be, but guess what just on the first working day the internet was gone and came back 4 days later. So this job opportunity been gone. I did nearly run out of money, so I sold my motobike, as long there is no school I would not need it. It took me a while to sell it, and of course I lost some money with that. But enough for Jul 03 06:49
schestowitzgoing another 2 months. Unfortunately the money been stolen. Lucky me, I got another opportunity to earn some money, in the next edition of the german LinuxUser there will be an article of me. And the best the want a whole series written from me, so enough work until the years end. What is very good as the government just announced that the schools stay closed until the end of the year. So far so good, if I would not be haunted by bad Jul 03 06:49

scientesDaemonFC[m], more-like slavery law AMIRITE?Jul 03 18:52
DaemonFC[m]By the time most people get to filing a voluntary Chapter 7, it's too late for the Trustee to get anything.Jul 03 18:53
DaemonFC[m]There's an involuntary Chapter 7 and 11 too, where your creditors can force you into bankruptcy.Jul 03 18:54
DaemonFC[m]It rarely gets used though because it can backfire on them badly and then they're on the hook for your legal bills and the court costs.Jul 03 18:54
DaemonFC[m]Typically, if you force a debtor into Chapter 7 and then there's nothing to take, their debt gets wiped out and you're the big dummy who pair to file their bankruptcy for them.Jul 03 18:54
DaemonFC[m]*paidJul 03 18:55
DaemonFC[m]It's only something that tends to get done if you believe you're dealing with a debtor who has significant assets, they're squandering them deliberately, and then they'll go file bankruptcy voluntarily when they're finished.Jul 03 18:56
DaemonFC[m]It's also kind of hard to do if they owe lots of people money.Jul 03 18:57
DaemonFC[m]If there's less than 12 creditors and the total debt is more than $15,060, then any individual creditor can try to force a debtor into bankruptcy, but if it's over 12 creditors, then at least half of them have to agree to do it. Jul 03 18:58
DaemonFC[m]In my case, a creditor could have forced me into bankruptcy, but it would have been a bad idea.Jul 03 18:58
scientesDaemonFC[m], you should force the federal government into chapter 7 bankruptcyJul 03 18:59
DaemonFC[m]They'd have been out the $350 fee to file bankruptcy and I would have had all my debt forgiven anyway.Jul 03 18:59
DaemonFC[m]<scientes "DaemonFC, you should force the f"> There is no law that provides for the federal or state governments to file bankruptcy.Jul 03 18:59
scientesDaemonFC[m], natural lawJul 03 18:59
DaemonFC[m]A local government can, subject to state law.Jul 03 19:00
DaemonFC[m]Illinois has no municipal bankruptcy law.Jul 03 19:00
scientesbut the federal government is bankruptJul 03 19:00
DaemonFC[m]If it did, then Chicago could go down to bankruptcy court and say it was filing Chapter 13 or Chapter 7 and under "type of debtor", instead of business or individual, they would check "Other" and write in "Municipal Government".Jul 03 19:00
scientesand the feds would check "Ponzi scheme"Jul 03 19:01
DaemonFC[m]They would then fill out the schedules like any other debtor would. They'd have to list any assets the city had, along with all of their debts.Jul 03 19:01
DaemonFC[m]A 13 would make the most sense for Chicago.Jul 03 19:01
DaemonFC[m]They have significant assets and they would probably want to exempt some stuff.Jul 03 19:02
scientesI sure somebody would could up a few coppers for all those nuclear warheads and toxic waste "super fun" zonesJul 03 19:02
DaemonFC[m]A 13 would roll their debts into a monthly payment at like 2-3% interest, and in 5 years the rest that was bundled would disappear. Jul 03 19:02
DaemonFC[m]They're paying like 8% right now on their loans, mostly.Jul 03 19:02
scientesDaemonFC[m], the federal government has been in 13 for a LONG timeJul 03 19:02
DaemonFC[m]So just getting it down to 2-3% would free up a lot of the city's money that it spends on debt service.Jul 03 19:03
scientesexcept that that no-body will load them any money anymoreJul 03 19:03
scientesall they can do is print itJul 03 19:03
DaemonFC[m]Then in 5 years, the remainder would be gone and if the city was responsible, then it would have no debt.Jul 03 19:03
DaemonFC[m]Chicago can't print money.Jul 03 19:03
DaemonFC[m]It can borrow or tax.Jul 03 19:03
DaemonFC[m]If the debt is reduced to 2-3% and there are some reasonable spending cuts, they can reduce their outflows to less than tax revenue and use the remainder to pay their bankruptcy plan.Jul 03 19:04
scientesnobody will loan them anythingJul 03 19:04
scientesand their tax-payers can't pay anythingJul 03 19:04
DaemonFC[m]Why should they be borrowing? That's why they need bankruptcy.Jul 03 19:04
DaemonFC[m]They need to cut spending, freeze taxes, and file bankruptcy. Now.Jul 03 19:04
scientesno, the feds need to file bankruptcyJul 03 19:05
