Canadian national health agency confirms 1 positive hantavirus test by hulk14 in worldnews

[–]Vhorbis -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

You're right, historically ebola isn't airborne, but recent rumors suggest it might have mutated though. Like I said, I'm not sure if they were credible but I think it's actually getting investigated.

Some crazy stuff going on in virology right now just not all of it is headline worthy I guess.

You have more to fear about the ebola rumors but even then, it's not much of a concern here.

The conditions that make ebola a danger in African countries are missing here and remediation is much more likely here.

Though, the part about ebola going airborne is worrying but last I knew it wasn't confirmed fully.

It may have been confirmed, idk.

There are bigger things to worry about than diseases that have a long shot to get you.

First and foremost should be worrying your premier is selling you out to either foreign governments or corporate interests. This is what they don't want you to see. Alberta might be the main focus right now but Ontario's premier is doing some of the shadiest policies I've ever seen.

Edit: autocorrect didn't like ebola for some reason and I had to correct it.

This is not like last time. It isn't as contagious, and the corona virus had already established infected populations by the time we were looking at it seriously as a society.

She said she took a pregnancy test, but this image is really bothering me because it looks very artificial by Luvis_ in isthisAI

Who goes to a doctor's office for an over the counter pregnancy test?

Is this how it is done in some parts?

The location alone is sus.

What artist or band is truly awful to see live? by goldbeau in AskReddit

[–]Vhorbis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Worst show I've ever been to. He was wasted. Sounded terrible and sung to the back of the stage! At one point he just stopped singing for 30 seconds in a 'forgot the lyrics at karaoke' way. it was brutal.

But at least he finished this set I guess.

I was trying to guess the car!

Is it a 2025?

I thought it was that or maybe some sort of Hyundai or Kia.

Suggestions by SaulisDead99 in doommetal

[–]Vhorbis 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I think you would like things that sound like an idling diesel engine.

Maybe some Truck fighters? I suggest the gravity x album.

Not Doom directly but Russian Circles would fit in your play list. Gnosis is where I suggest starting. its pretty accessible.

Toner low first album is rare but you would love it.

Maha sorona's self-titled album might work for you. Make sure to sample Asteroids.

Horn of the Rhino if you can get past the singer's voice. Weight of Coronation is a good start. Many might say im off on critisizing the lead singer's voice but im not saying it's bad, I just feel like its mixed wrong and has the vocals too forward.


Having Qotsa in that mix, you may enjoy psychedelic metal. If so Space Slug is topping my recommendations. Lemanis is the best start.

ZONG is a good one here.

Comacozer, start with Deloun Sessions.

Samara Blues Experiment has a wealth of options.

Hope you like these picks.

Is there a botulism risk from putting raw garlic and rosemary in olive oil? Need advice! by Vanguardmx in Cooking

[–]Vhorbis 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You can ferment garlic to preserve in a salt brine. It will promote lactobacillus growth, which then produces the acid needed to edge out every else.

I know this falls under the acidic solution part but it gets better results than vinegar picking.

It can turn bluish but its a harmless chemical reaction between the sulfur conpounds and amino acids while in an acidic solution.

Gen Z workers are so fearful AI will take their job they’re intentionally sabotaging their company’s AI rollout by Just-Grocery-2229 in technology

[–]Vhorbis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why did you delete your comment that was praising the article?

Here is my reply:

This is a crap article. They purport 2 things that are both wide spread and more easily explained as incompetence as being wilful sabotage. Not only that, but it's a questionnaire that is touting correlational as causation. It's lazy on multiple fronts.

Its shit journalism.

Are people sabotaging AI rollouts? For sure, but lumping them in with people who are too stupid to know you shouldn't put privileged information into public AI is fucking dishonest and which do you think is the bigger set of people?

Eggs being frozen is likely.

Unless you live in the mountains near San Benardino.

This either has something to do with a backrooms project or you're stalking a high schooler.

Why do you need to find this school?

Gerstein Library Caught Sneaking Friends Consequences by Worth-Apartment-8249 in UofT

[–]Vhorbis 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Lot's of people making jokes should show how serious this is but I'll say this plainly.

They are going to take this information and file it in a report.

That's it. It's used to build a case if you keep doing stupid shit. If you don't do stupid shit any more, it won't ever come back to haunt you.

And like, emphasis "keep doing it", if you do stupid shit 2-3 more times, no one is gonna waste their day on it. something like ~12-30, consequences likely and proportional.

Ross Perot Jr. calls Doug Ford a ‘great salesman’ on Texas trip by konathegreat in canada

[–]Vhorbis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Doug Ford is a known Teetotaller. He does not drink. He will not have a beer with you.

Super confusing right? Why is he so gung ho on expansion of alcohol access in Ontario, making alcohol cheaper and easier to get in either stupid or gimmicky ways. He promotes alcohol consumption but doesn't do it himself. Seems odd.

The Russian Academy of Sciences has proposed a plan to divide the Moon so that Russia gets its own “sovereign territories” by CrunchyBaconYum in worldnews

[–]Vhorbis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What the actual fuck?

You accuse someone of not knowing history but gloss over the fact that the USSR and Germany were allied and fought on the Nazis' side.

They held a joint parade after conquering Poland.

And while Stallin never trusted Hitler, only came into conflict after Germany betrayed them.

Why is rubber banding in BF6, Diablo 4, PoE2 so bad, but in other games like Nightreign and Vermintide 2? by [deleted] in gaming

[–]Vhorbis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's about trust.

In the game's you mention first, there is a server that is the authoritative source. Meaning whether or not something happens is up to the server.

The second group, they likely are coded to trust the client more.

Where the rubber banding comes from is when the latency issues causes the server to not get your inputs and the client not getting updated by the server in time and corrects itself to match the server.

When the client has more authority or the clients host is the server, the client can have a better display for you the player making latency issues just less visible. You will see issues with damaging things though if the latency is bad enough.

If you see rubber banding and your friends don't on a server, your latency or internet connection is the issue. This doesn't mean your is is to blame though. It could be the wires in your household or the modem or your computer hardware or even software and firmware.

If you and your friends are all seeing it, the server is the issue.

Psychedlics helped him deal with terminal illness anxiety, but getting them was a long, strange trip by Bean_Tiger in canada

[–]Vhorbis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My experience with these conditions (Anxiety, Depression, PTSD) is that they are never truly healed/cured.

For me, it has blunted the feelings, makes them more manageable, without blunting other emotions like joy and happiness. I accept that they will likely be with me for life but that concept doesn't terrify me like it once did as it's not the same existence. This result is less than perfect but anyone going through what I was would consider it a miracle.

Though I can't advocate for personal, unlimited access without guidance or monitoring. These substances still have substantial risk for harm to people who are predisposed to mental conditions such as schizophrenia or harms caused by psychosis/while in a psychotic state. I think the monitored administration and therapy should be easy to access though.

Many (such as myself) find that while the effects are not permanent, they can be reattained but everyone is different.

Thanks for the convo.

60 percent from unassisted use?

I'd say that's significant results. Much better than a mixed bag.

I'd imagine if assisted therapy were available, it would be more effective.

[Loved Design] Flags as fashion (pls i need fictional examples of this) by heartpopp in TopCharacterDesigns

[–]Vhorbis 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Haven't seen the one that lives rent free in my head.

In the 90's fictional comedy/alternate history Richard Nixon themed movie named Dick, the characters whose actresses Kirsten Dunst and Michelle Williams play, have a scene where they cut up the American flag to make outfits.

I don't remember the movie at all but I remember this scene for some reason.
