It takes 5 to 10 years to create a safe and effective vaccine. Look to the 1970s and Swing Flu to see an example of a failed vaccine. It is absolutely insane that anyone is seriously considering we can make a safe vaccine for this in less t

It varied and we're seeing more cases in the EU coming out of the lockdown. Hell, NZ went for total elimination and they got more cases (possibly due to freight?) When this is over, I bet the entire planet will have rates similar to Sw

I have an Oculus Go and pretty much only use it for Skybox and nothing else. I hope I can just disable all updates and keep using it without connecting it to a FB account. I haven't even bought anything on the store. I guess it might b

I wouldn't know. I stopped shopping on Amazon in 2016. It really irks me when I see a product I'm interested in and only see it on Amazon! I'll often pay the $10~$15 more to buy it straight from the manufacturers website to a

California is big enough and the scope wide enough that Amazon will most likely have to address it for the entire country. I doubt we'll see some items taken off listings in California but still available in Texas. That would open up a

How does this apply to eBay or Newegg? I've written about how we've lost a lot of smaller independent websites and everyone has to have a store on Amazon/eBay/Newegg/Reverb these days: https://battlepengu

I honestly care more about Julian Assange. His own government turned their back on him. Snowden has been quite the show, enough so that I'm seriously wondering if he's actually a spook. His entire story is weird. He holds a six fi

It's very unlikely a safe vaccine will come out six months from now. It's even more insane to think most people around the world will allow themselves to be injected with something developed in less than a year. Effective treatmen

I've seen both documentaries. I know that one women who owned the restaurant and provided a bunch of workers did have a gofundme that helped get back a lot of what she lost.

I was wondering that too. I'm glad, although I'm guessing it won't be that much compared to how much they defrauded people. I'm guessing everyone might get like $50 back for a $1k ticket?

You should watch both documentaries. It's weird how they have entirely different people in them, and they spin things slightly differently. I do think McFarland was a scam artist. His past history of scams shows he's one of these
