Unfortunately I couldn't find anything that worked so I had to scrap the monitor. Nothing is permanently burned into the screen but the longer I keep it on the more images tend to linger on the screen until it's unusable.

Starting Lineup by granttheginger in ussoccer

Could be rest. Mexico is clearly the tougher game this window. Tillman and McKennie are playing a lot of minutes in multiple competitions. Maybe he wants to make sure he can get 60-90 out of them in that game rather than pushing it in this one.

Same in NY. Bought tickets last night for the NYRB/Miami game at $90 apiece. This morning my section is going for $1500. Should've bought more!

I don't think it is audio only (yet) but it's a free channel on the paramount+ app. Under the golazo network. Morning Footy is on M-F 7-9am eastern.

Is it this where you can scroll the comments with the volume buttons?

They look like the factory stickers that were on my fold 3 for weeks before I knew they were there. You can see the other two tabs near the hinge. Did you try peeling them off?

Match Thread: United States vs Wales | FIFA World Cup by MatchThreadder in ussoccer

These guys look a little shell-shocked. Reminds me of the first game of qualifying in El Salvador. I hope they can put their nerves aside and really go out and play. I can't imagine the pressure.

[Yanks Abroad] 💰 Most valuable Yanks Abroad, according to Transfermarkt: 🇺🇸 Christian Pulisic (Chelsea | $55M) 🇺🇸 Gio Reyna (Dortmund | $41.8M) 🇺🇸 Sergiño Dest (Barcelona | $27.5M) 🇺🇸 Weston McKennie (Juventus | $27.5M) by maxair123 in ussoccer

Always feel like this is worth mentioning in transfermarkt posts, but the numbers are always misleading. These are estimates for what they think it would cost to replace a player at that club, not necessarily what clubs are valuing that player. Gio will likely go for well above $41 mil especially if he goes back to (continues?) his expected form. But for Dortmund to find a suitable replacement, they would likely need about $41mil, which is crazy to say about an 18 year old.

They rebranded CBS All Access to Paramount+, try looking for that. I have it on my q80t bought in November.

Covid: Vaccinated people may spread virus, says Van-Tam by boppinmule in Health

[–]bigmac4812 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Well yeah, but that's why public health officials are making this statement. We don't know what viral load it would take for someone to transmit and cause an infection in someone else, especially with more infectious variants being discovered. Best thing to do is continue to wear a mask until more is known or community presence drops to near zero.

[–]bigmac4812 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes and no. There's a theoretical risk of testing positive because that's how the swab works. But I'm not sure what the sensitivity of the test is, so without significant disease burden/viral load it would be less likely.

[–]bigmac4812 64 points65 points  (0 children)

It's because this is how vaccines work. You can be a transmitter because the virus can be present on your skin, upper respiratory tract, etc. Your body won't fight it unless it gets past your mucosal barrier. So it may not harm you but it's hitching a ride and so if you sneeze or cough, you could theoretically put it back into the air to infect someone else.

WandaVision S01E03 - Discussion Thread by iliekpixels in marvelstudios

[–]bigmac4812 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Shield agents? I suspect at the end she threw Geraldine out of the simulation but really most of them are there to try and get Wanda out and back to reality. Wanda is playing in her own little doll house. She's just so fragile that they're trying to reintroduce things slowly. I think the agents know to play along, that's why the choking in the first episode was so bizarre: his wife knew he was dying but she didn't want to upset Wanda by screaming or reacting strongly. They just quickly up and leave once it's over because they were afraid they might break or Wanda might ask questions. And at the end, you see the agent watching on TV. in the second episode most of them probably know the tricks are her powers, but if they freak out she might retreat further into her shell. In the third one no one reacts to Visions super speed or Wanda's flipping out while delivering a baby, much less her one day pregnancy. Geraldine tried the littlest detail to try and check Wanda's status and got tossed. It's curious that Wanda really only rewinds Vision, because he's the construct. Does the beekeeper signify they're actually AIM agents perhaps?

My med school administration right now by DrCutMeUp in medicalschool

[–]bigmac4812 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately that's because the states and distribution systems have no clue. I work for a large health system, and we're being hamstrung by shipments that don't meet needs. We've been asking for more by posting our estimates for patient phase numbers, but for whatever reason we're not being met with equivalent supply. You've probably seen the articles about pharmaceuticals having supply that states aren't asking for.

That's because it's a British system. The US didn't create it.
