    I hate 30k errors!!!!!

    I feel your pain. I have been there so many times I stopped counting. It was rather predictable too, the more money the rock was worth, the more the game will find a way to blow you up or 30K you into oblivion.

    Coronavirus COVID-19 Thread

    I missed from Tuesday because of recovering from dental surgery. Very un-fun. I got the BioNTech/Pfizer vaccine, but don't forget there's also the Moderna. They're very similar. The other thing about these mRNA vaccines is that if new variants start to make it ineffective, a booster shot...

    let's talk about desks

    This is very similar to what I used for a long time. If you have a spare table, you can use that instead. If you're using plywood you can find desk legs on Amazon for just about any size desk. Just make sure it's sturdy. I also have a top that can raise up when I need to stand. You don't...

    That's about the most sensible thing I've heard in here for weeks.

    Welcome to TEST! and... At crashing? GREAT! You're in luck because I think exploration is going to involve a fair amount of navel combat. I mean naval combat.

    Please don't like my thread-campaign

    Haha, well some might not like it but... that is what the Internet has become. I'm just not sure this started in 1999, because for a long time before web sites started carrying it, there was Usenet - and it got to be a pretty weird thing sometimes most of the time.

    Coronavirus COVID-19 Thread

    I actually got caught up in all that, as a patient. A doctor had proscribed Zantac which I was supposed to take for years. Fortunately for me, about 6 months later another doctor intervened and did a test which found the H. pylori. Antibiotic treatment took 2 weeks to fully work. Well, I get...

    Actually, Dr. Goldman said that, according to the article. I just agree with it.

    I did some amateur voice acting for an SC project!

    This isn't on you guys... but CIG. The degradation in the game's frame rates is really noticeable.

    Joined the squadron years ago and just now found this forum, so welcome everybody

    Welcome to TEST, just think of all the free beer you've missed. It's OK though, I think we drank it.

    There is a long list of reference sources at the bottom of the article. The study I'm most familiar with on this topic I'm not even sure if it's listed in that, but it's here: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0160412020312800?via%3Dihub Also, just to be clear, fomite...

    Is this new ARGO leak a cargo or refinery ship? Video

    Yes. There are a lot more ships on that list, and it is annoying when a new ship jumps to the front of the line. I'm just glad I haven't been forced to wait 7 or 8 years for anything... yet. I have a couple/few on my list that might take that long at this rate though.

    This document (American) describes what is meant by "Gain-of-function" research. It's not quite what you think, and the name itself is not universally accepted. You can read the whole thing but just the top of the page would do it for most people to understand. (this is chapter 3 of the...

    How are you going to fund it, and what shortcuts are you willing to live with? The fastest a vaccine has ever been created before was 4 years, but it normally takes 10 years to make a safe vaccine. There's a lot of Government red tape that has to be navigated too. This time, it took less...
