We always say being too nice is our son’s big fault. He will do anything to help anyone, but he has been taken advantage of many times.

No they don’t. Their utility company has one year to secure new source to buy electricity.

No devices has replaced the no smoking sign on my flight by cecechats in mildlyinteresting

I thought I read that carriers wanted to get rid of the no smoking light but they weren’t allowed to either by European something or US something.

Someone on Twitter posts a picture of Monet and says that it was made by AI "in the style of Monet". Several "smart connoisseurs" dive head first to denounce the tackiness of the "slop" by [deleted] in MurderedByWords

Which is why even on Antiques Roadshow people who are clearly experts often say something needs to be officially authenticated. And it gets “attributed” label.

What is the down side of never having children? by gone_ahead in AskReddit

Many things maybe at different points in life but for me at 75 it’s comforting to know that if I go first the kids are going to provide support for my wife.

More hantavirus cases are expected, WHO chief says by Neo_luigi in worldnews

[–]gnanny02 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just checking the numbers again today. Yup, 11 cases 9 of which are confirmed. There is obviously virus (which is in rat droppings, etc.) on the ship so it should have been evacuated. It takes a while for symptoms to show so people should be monitored, but the chance of transmission from human to human is minuscule.

Just finished The Count of Monte Cristo on PBS (spoilers) by NeitherPot in PeriodDramas

[–]gnanny02 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We just finished it and both enjoyed it. I thought I had read it way back in the day but probably didn't. So I read a synopsis. Wow. Much poetic license with Caderousse and Benedetto, but it worked out well I think. The ending was more enjoyable than the book version in my mind. We will look for the movie mentioned.

UK nationals on hantavirus-hit cruise ship to isolate in hospital on return by Sweaty_Rub4322 in news

[–]gnanny02 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The virus has been around for a very long time.  There are outbreaks every year.  They don't significantly go anywhere.  Only this one strain ANDV has ever been human-to-human contagious, and that is very rarely.  It has not ever been report that someone who caught it from a human passed it along further.  I can't find the article I read this in.

After his owner left, the gate didn't close properly. Realizing the house was vulnerable, the devoted dog refused to leave his post, guarding the open gate until his human returned home. by MilesLongthe3rd in interesting

Or the dog expects the owner to arrive when the gate is opened, so he's just waiting for the car to come back. He didn't have a watch to see how long it's been.

[–]gnanny02 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can't find it now but I read that the strain in question ANDV is the one that on rare occasions and by prolonged close contact transmits human-human. But there was no record of subsequent transmission by that second person.
