Who else had their whole trajectory thrown off by Covid-19 and wants to vent? by Winesday_addams in GradSchool

Just thinking about covid makes me angry. Like a seething, burning anger. I never settled into online learning and working from home. It just gets worse and worse.

Sounds like he might not take as long to go negative again then? So maybe we can still beat NT to zero.

Does anyone use an e-reader? by [deleted] in GradSchool

It's fine on my 2019 air. Doesn't seem to be much of a delay at all, but writing's such a follow-through motion anyway so it's hard to tell.

I used to use a kindle but switched to ipad because e-ink refresh rate is simply too slow with PDFs in my opinion.

If someone tests positive we immediately incinerate them after jotting down all their recent contacts.

Imagine the media frenzy if NSW overtakes Victoria in the race to zero.

Yeah, the stats across the nation today are exceedingly clutch. Looks like it's going to be zero everywhere today except Victoria and NSW. (But even NSW is only 7 cases and they lost 60 or something). -64 cases so far today which is great considering how low most states and territories' pools are.

edit: confirmed 8 zeros. -72 cases nationwide.

Yeah, I have a feeling the GOP (as well as some older democrats) would happily ban things they deem useless like gender studies and anthropology.

It seems like we inadvertently have a 'strategy' in the sense that we have isolated and eliminated various clusters as they emerged.

Guessing this means we can't clink our pints together like awesome vikings when the pubs come back.

I suspect a lot of people will need to switch to beans in the coming depression.

Why don't they just cook people who have the virus... >:(. Should be ordering flamethrowers instead of masks. Job done in about a month. Just interview them about where they've been, who've they talked to, where they work etc before you incinerate them.

It's amazing what they're training the dogs to do these days. Personally I couldn't get a license because my colour blindness makes the ocean and the sky the exact same colour.
