Hopefully this week will organise a 6 month mortgage holiday. I’m about 5 years away from being debt free if I continue working full time and can start to save a dollar. gently caress being alive sucks some times. do u get less during a pandemic or something

maybe it stays dormant in your lung cells and comes back even worse, like shingles

fart simpson posted:good news. people in south corea and wuhan are already getting it a second time. from what i’ve seen this has been rare enough so far that it can be chalked up to the occasional bad test or weird edge case. i think it’s been here in the states / across europe that if this were a widespread problem it’s be very obvious by now i hope

wonder if it's like dengue fever where there's a bunch of nearly-identical variants and you end up immune to the exact one you got but none of the others thankfully it doesn't have the part of dengue fever where antibodies for one variant actually make all the other variants even more deadly

mystes posted:"Long term" here is like more than a year, or maybe more than 6 months on the short side, which is probably going to become a huge problem, but it's still extremely unlikely that people can get reinfected immediately after they've had it.

Endless Mike posted:the eventual vaccine will get rolled into flu vaccines that not enough people get, and it'll stick around forever instead of getting eradicated, but not kill as many people The only thing purporting to show numbers remotely like that right now is the dumb antibody study from California that recruited people using Facebook and did nothing to address self-selection bias.

mystes posted:The only way the coronavirus vaccine is going to end up not being a big deal is if it runs it's course and it turns out the mortality rate is WAY lower than we think it is because there are tons of asymptomatic people, and right now I really wouldn't recommend getting your hopes up for that. hey there’s the la study too now! by some of the same people; and are responding to criticism of the earlier study by not publishing their data or peer reviewing this one

Side note. Some of my buddies got a Minecraft server for us to shoot the poo poo in. They went with the win10 version because it's cross play compatible with the Xbox and Switch versions. I'd keep getting disconnected if alt-tabbed out to do something like read a wiki page. Turns out if you're full-screen in a Win 10 application and you minimize it, it suspends the process, and there's nothing an application developer can do about it. The amount of regression in the software industry in the past decade for solved problems is dumbfounding

mystes posted:That sounds like a legacy of how WinRT was designed for mobile devices. I think that Microsoft has fixed some of this stuff now that they've given up on mobile, but I guess they haven't fixed everything yet. Suspending the processes makes sense if you're using an Android-style app lifecycle but it makes much less sense on a desktop. Exactly, but when I was looking into it, it's been an issue for at least two plus years. You'd think they could have addressed it in that time.

Based on your post I thought "oh man, I should see if I can get the Win10 version since I bought the Java one back in 2013". Turns out, I could have claimed a free copy until a few hours ago! the option expired just before midnight on April 20. Fuuuck.
