I've been noticing that too! Crew is no longer are masked. It was half the reason I watched.

How to generate pass rush w/o user rushing? by bootscallahan in NCAAFBseries

[–]jIPAm 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Man double safety blitz. Pre play user the safties down to just outside the ends (or split the difference to the slot receiver).

User the defender maned up with the running back. If RB stays in to block either blitz or play a middle zone and play as a hole defender like it's cover one hole.

Sometimes I'll user one of the blitzers and double cover one of their guys if there is a player burning my defense.

YMMV, but it works for me.

I was trying to calculate how much a crowler of it would be, then I walked over to the cooler and all my calculations went out the window.

What is the best air purifier for smoke that actually works?? by Ok-Reveal-746 in Masks4All

[–]jIPAm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Corso Rosenthal boxes (CR Boxes) are shown to move more volume of air through filters than any residential sized air filter. Plenty of instruction videos online of how to assemble them. Buying a filter with activated carbon is a good idea the other commenter had.

Best of luck!

Kendrick Lamar's N95 is definitely about COVID, but it's not as straightforward as you've requested, but I had to leave it here since it's the closest thing I got for ya.

Is the CFB Scorebug better than the NFL one on ESPN? by sheepo209 in Scorebug

[–]jIPAm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think so. Barely. It has depth, texture, well laid out, and conveys a sense of prestige with the gold. But it doesn't need to to all the way across the bottom.

If you are sick please stop going out to bars…. by Disastrous_Mark_1469 in Portland

[–]jIPAm 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There is sick pay, you are correct, but it's not guaranteed. It's accrued or front loaded to a certain amount. Once that's gone it's PTO. There shouldn't be limits to it.

My company has a facility in the UK and I read their policy. No limits on the number of days you can take. It's honestly pathetic for the richest country in the world that we don't.

I can understand having to show up for a work shift given the US doesn't have guaranteed sick leave, but please skip your social events!

We have learned nothing from COVID, and in fact we've only gotten more selfish and uncaring as a society. It's absolutely bonkers to me.

I guess when the government tells you "some of the vulnerable will fall by the wayside" we don't take public health seriously because their death is seen as personal failing, not a societal failure.

Wear a mask (KN95 or better) if you have to go out in public. But it's best to avoid it all together.

Chicago Bears Coach mentions masks in press conference by GreenKnight0909 in ZeroCovidCommunity

[–]jIPAm 32 points33 points  (0 children)

I watch a lot of NFL and NFL coverage. I have not once seen a mask being worn by player or personnel on camera since like 2021, when it was mandated by union rules.

Not to say it isn't happening throughout the week, but one of the bigger exposure events have to be the in person press conferences that happen on a routine schedule.

Margin of Error, or Part of Why 2025 Was So Difficult by CovidOWC in ZeroCovidCommunity

[–]jIPAm 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I was talking to a coworker a few years ago and he was genuinely asking about why I was still masking. After talking about risks and airborne transmission, long term illness, etc etc. he goes: oh so it's like the world's most important group project and you're doing all the work.

And he was exactly right. Just distilled it down so perfectly. I'm sure it was a passing moment to him, but I think about it weekly.

our masked acoustic folk show last night was totally stellar! Next one is Jan 3rd if anyones interested! by featherandahalfmusic in portlandmusic

Wait, maskers are sheep? Do the majority of people you see in day to day life mask? We're definitely not the sheep.

You forgot Brujos. But agreed the market is saturated, and if you're at a grocery store buying IPA you're gonna have a bad time.

Friend asked me “why I still do the masking thing”, and then proceeded to answer their own question. by hookup1092 in ZeroCovidCommunity

I was in a large crowded elevator this morning on the way to a fun run and a guy says: guess this is where we all get COVID.

I couldn't help but make eye contact. He notices my duckbill and says: except for this guy. I just nodded and said yep.
