Can you do a side by side comparison with NY? Maybe throw FL or MI in.
Isn't our Covid testing wonderful. 300k per day... that is amazing and provides people like you a bunch of data!
Colorados info looks to be excellent, if you can get me similar for those other places I'll try to put a spready together. Are NY and FL and MI all following the Colorado relaxation? If not it's comparing Apple Tech with Apple Corps.
EDIT - Actually that's given me an idea, a pain in the ass with all these infoshots is histroric data is constantly changing and my logs are as reported on the day. If I can find an xls of the updated daily numbers I can just plug directly into that and have it updated almost automatically every day...

Agreed... let me put on my data analyst hat for a moment.
First, what are the variables?
Second, what is the time frame?
Third, what values do you want to compare?
Finally, compare the final result against expected results, such as covid deaths vs natural deaths during that period.
For example. I would recommend we look the number of tests. From that you can determine how many were infected and how many were not. Then take a percentage of the infected to the number of deaths. Finally, look at a baseline like natural deaths.
I suppose I could connect to some api and pull this info, but I really do not want to. In the end, the virus is going to run its course... you can go play by play if you want but time will be the ultimate healer. My main concern at this point is not the numbers but how we as the world pull out of it from a policy stand point. That messy area the combines politics, economy and social developments.

In that case I suggest we continue looking at Colarado as a curiosity in the understanding that it is not representative of the country as a whole.Agreed... let me put on my data analyst hat for a moment.

I really must get into API's to pull in junk, I've got Macros in spreadsheets down pretty well but using the automated recorder to get it to write my code and then chop-and-change it from there usually.
So beyond New Zealand no travel to the land down under until a vaccine can be crafted and administered to most people of a countries population.I suspect it will look something like this.
What would a trans-Tasman ‘travel bubble’ look like?
Australia and New Zealand have kicked off “unprecedented” discussions at a National Cabinet meeting with the aim of creating a “bubble” that would allow international travel across the ditch.www.news.com.au
Safe countries and unsafe countries. Different rules for each, and mandatory 14 day detention for travellers from unsafe countries.
I expect some form of contact tracing will be required until there’s a Vaccine regardless of where people originate.
It is just a suggestion... and I appreciate your interest and work... because it will be interesting.

Problem is it does not have data for 2020 but you do have 2019. You can slice and dice it how ever you want. I am sure you can find something else out there that may have more up to date information. We're almost in June 1/2 way through 2020 and Colorado has nearly 971 deaths due to Covid so far in 2020. Total number of deaths (all causes) was almost 40,000 for last year 2019.
Look at these fine specimen in downtown Raleigh, they have been named #mealteam6
Sometimes you just gotta brandish a rocket launcher and bring a couple buddies armed to the teeth to subway with you to ensure they don't fuck up your order.
That is a 50 cal Machine Gun... Americans do not get rocket launchers. Good way to get on the ATF radar I suppose.
It said it was inert but a rocket launcher none the less! And thats impressive to be humping around an M2 all day, the M240 is bad enough
I had to carry around a gau-18 some short distances but its a bit heavier. Still gives me an idea how heavy the browning is.
Will the pandemic reshape cities? | LinkedIn
As many start to realize that the COVID-19 pandemic will likely last for years, not months, some are beginning to rethink city living altogether.

Oh boy..
Man..you don't do your cause any favors when you approach a black family and give them a good old fashioned Sieg Heil salute.
Its the wooden fake one they make you carry in basic.
Same with the rpg tube, it has a sticker saying "inert".
Its not the launcher, its the ammunition. If you go spend a bunch of money on one round, then questions are going to get asked from the ATF. Its not like going out to the range, getting drunk, wasting 1-5k per round. I understand the federal transfer fee is $200 but you still have to buy the round.
For non-US people on this thread... the ATF monitors the sale of weapons in the US, among other things.
People still have constitutional rights, but there are limits.
This link is a little off base, but it is a good illustration.
18 U.S. Code § 2332g - Missile systems designed to destroy aircraft
Wonder what their motivation for doing that is? 50 cal. machine guns and rocket launchers are illegal, so they get fakes or inert ones. Do they want people to approach them to point that out only for them to, yell "These are fakes bro, whacha gonna do about it?". Or do they want the ATF to be called on them just so they can have a confrontation caught on video to be put on Youtube or something.
It is (not that we carry them in basic - we use them for training and demonstration in a classroom environment - that is just me though)... good call, I did not look at it in that much detail... just like the rocket launcher. Are you sure there is not a movie being made in NC? As I said, these people are a bunch of knuckle heads, just causing problems.

I'm a film guy and these aren't film guys haha. They might be Teamsters though lol.
I've been on sets where they actually use real .50 Cals. They're either deactivated or fired blanks. No self respecting production would use wooden ones unless it's a static piece that's off camera.
I guess those cosplayers got lost on their way to E3...
@Aramsolari Good thing they use real ones, one less thing I have to fix in post lol
