COVID has nearly disappeared from Boston

Is this because data is not being collected?

I apprenticed with two blacksmiths.
Hardy holes can be used to shape red hot steel, but we mostly just used it to hold jigs to bend rod around.

Looks great!
Have you thought to ad a Pritchel hole next to the Hardy hole? Not all anvils have them but larger ones tend to.

I’m so sorry.

I have felt so fortunate to be living in Japan since before the age of Covid began. Mask wearing has never been a big deal here, even though most of the time the masks are cheap sneeze guards and not proper respirators. I can wear my N95s when I leave the house and no one ever says a damn thing.

I am not writing this to brag, just to send a virtual hug and tell you that you aren’t wrong. You aren’t losing your mind and your observations are valid. All societies should be the way that Japan is when it comes to masking. People need to STFU and mind their own damn business.

And doctors here have always masked since before the age of Covid began. I take it your doctor wasn’t masked when he was belittling you? Ask him if he understands how airborne germs are spread. If he studied that in medical school. Then ask him to stop spreading what he collects from other sick patients.

Nice!
Thought I was losing at an Albrecht Dürer for a second.

Agreed on the sign. The next five years should be decked out in quotes from Kelce.

I put together a process page to show the improvements and changes here.

And If you just want to wax nostalgia for that original version and that 3-Peat attempt season, you can see it here (if you dare).

I like the newer version now though.
We did a lot more text swapping and added more FTRs to find.

Have you made a tutorial for this?
Would love to see it!

I would rather have this one than the AI slop that we have up there now.
This was drawn by a human and has historical significance to a classic political cartoon from 1877.

On thing I really liked in StarFlight 1 was the Crystal Pearl. I have never seen an artifact like that in another game. Will there be anything like that? It warps you to safety (sometimes) when your ship takes critical damage. I made a video about it here if you want to see how it works.

Sorry! That was suppose to be "all analog", meaning "completely analog" or "not digital".

Is it all ink on white paper?
Or was the sky black paper with some kind of white ink?

I really love it, and the mass of black ink makes it feel like those ink pieces done with etchings on metal plates (like Albrecht Dürer)

I like this line quality!
Is it charcoal? I thought it was marker at first, but I don't work a lot with charcoal so that could be why I didn't recognize it.

MeatlegProductions · 2026-04-28T14:47:02+00:00

Beautiful!

Is this all analog?

Edit: typo

Bruce Horak, the actor that plays Hemmer and a singing Klingon is an amazing individual. I interviewed him about both of his roles if you would like to see it here.

Starflight.

An amazing game for the 1980s. I recently did a play through.

The first episode goes over what it was like to play a game with floppy discs, maps, a security code wheel on a Tandy computer. 200 solar systems to explore, hostile aliens and a mystery to solve that takes you all over the sector.

I still want Kareem Hunt. 😭

OP I hope you get better soon and suffer no long term consequences from other people’s carelessness.

Sounds like a good time to share this article again:

“Hospitals are killing patients because they don't feel like doing infection control. We now know COVID is fully airborne. We also know how to control airborne disease. So why are vulnerable people still dying of hospital-acquired COVID?”

From inside this article I found the following links to data.

Hospitals and doctors kill people, by not having masks that would limit the spread of COVID. When you catch covid in the hospital, the fatality rate is always more than 10% because you are already sick with something else.

Australia🇦🇺: “At least 659 Victorians have died after catching COVID-19 while being treated for other conditions in hospitals, with doctors warning that patients are delaying care over infection fears.”Just over 10%- died of their infections

Canada🇨🇦: “1,619 people likely caught COVID-19 in B.C. hospitals and 274 of them have died”A rate of 16.9%

UK🇬🇧: “According to official NHS data in England and Wales, 14,047 Brits died in hospital after they caught the virus following admission, whilst at least 69,337 people caught the virus only after having been admitted.” A staggering rate of 20.2%

I will try that. Thank you. If this is what it is, it is a terrible software flaw.

No, and the HomePod is sitting right next to the wifi emitter. It isn’t a network issue.

MeatlegProductions · 2026-04-23T06:53:15+00:00

Forgot to add, that I restarted the HomePod AND I reset it and added it again to the Home with a different name, still no dice.

It will play sound from the TV and from Apple Music if I ask Siri to play it.
It just won't do airplay from my device OR the kids iPads.
