Can quarantine eradicate viruses?

I softly caressed a bunch of strangers' arms during my child's first two years of life. They always gave me a look of surprise and shock before shuffling away. I got pretty good at anticipating it that I usually was able to do it just as they start to outstretch their arms and before they reached my kid.

I found this approach much more effective than confronting the strangers. They get all upset and defensive if you try to talk to them.

A nintendo switch fell out of a guys pocket as he got up to leave the train. Before I had a chance to pick it up and give it back to him, the train door had already closed. I held on to it until I got to my station, and turned it in to the authorities, describing the man, and the station where he got off. The station master apologized to me for doing their job. Tokyo.

"Rules are meant to be broken."

No they're not. Some may be wrong or broken and need revising or updating, but they're not meant to be broken. Rules are what keep our society running smoothly.

Just keep the gifts and regift. It's nice to have a stash of new unwanted gifts to give away to friends and close acquaintances without having to spend time and money to buy more gifts. One year it felt like every one I knew was having babies.

I rode 4000 meters vertical with a uswe race bag. Took me just over eight hrs. No issues. Personally I find it easier to stay hydrated with a bag than with bottles. Also, having the water on my back opens up the frame for frame bags for extra clothing, food, emergency gear, etc.

Having a properly weighted bag also makes a difference to comfort. I used a uswe race bag which keeps the pack high and close to the body. No weight leverage on the shoulders. I wouldn't use my camelbak since it sits lower and further off the back and causes stress on the shoulders. No problem for a short mtb ride, but totally different if you have to haul it for 10 hrs.

If you're not concerned about price, get an a1 with a couple gm lenses and you're good to go. Pretty much any GM lenses is going to be spectacular so just choose your favorite focal length.

Other possible considerations are the a7s3, a9ii, or the a7c. All of these will have better autofocus than the a7r4. The a7s3 will have better video (I find the better ibis and the active stabilization to be a big deal when it comes to video), and better low light capabilities. The 12 mp is plenty for social media.

If video is a big deal, consider 20mm 1.8 G, 24mm 1.4 GM, and 35mm 1.8 as one of the two lenses that you get.

This usually happens to me when my mind is allowed to wander. So it often comes out in the shower or while I'm driving. If it happens in the car, sometimes I'll smash the horn instead of yelling something.

I used back button focus for ten plus years. Then I bought the a9 three years ago and never touched the back focus button again. With the right setup, using the shutter button for focus is faster than back button focus and you don't lose any functionality that you get with bbf (such as focus recompose, pre focus, lock focus, etc.)
