I have hit a limit of 3 posts in a row. Iā€™d like to keep these to about 5 or 6 per post, or grouped on a theme, so they are easier to navigate.
Can someone else make a post or comment so I can start another block ?

Do you think he would be saying that if he worked there ?
Who would have thought that Elon Musk would value profit over human suffering ?
Could this constitute criminal negligence ?


More proof that crypto coins are no better than the other debt-backed money the banks issue as credit.

@farukwaja Possibly the most absurd claim ever.
Corona viruses have been around for 1000s of years, probably millions.
We will see other corona viruses evolve over the coming 1000s of years.
They are a natural part of the world we live in.
We currently live with several.

Heard Leo, I think, on TWiG, repeating the myth that the last big pandemic was from Spain.

It originated in Kansas.

It has been a bit hit and miss lately. If you leave F@H running you will get a WU(work unit) at some point. The last few days I could not get any WUs but I have some again now. Saying that they do not seem to be the covid WUs. I was looking at the GPU WUs not the CPU WUs covid identification numbers. :slight_smile:

I think @Leo should be monitoring this thread if he thinks there is a drop in malware, and not much covid malware

I was asked by my employer today since Iā€™m a supervisorā€¦If I could come into the office and work if they start having our agents work remotely. Their reasoning being we are an emergency call center and have in addition to our normal call queue system hard wired phones on our desk for priority answers. Iā€™m assuming myself and the other 5 supervisors are all going to be asked before it goes into effect.

As long as there is enough space you can keep to separate areas, and the company arranges for the equipment to be sterilised, you should be OK.
Ideally this is where we need to be able to test people without symptoms.
If you at least know the few people you are working with are cleared, you can work without paranoia.

The collection of malware and scam threats above is getting too scary so Iā€™ll start another.
Maybe this post will only have 1 link as it is such good value for money.
