Nobody is claiming that. It's just not clear what Trump's relationship with Russia is. Can you tell us what Trump and Putin talked about at their meeting in Helsinki? Or can you name any American citizen other than Trump himself who knows it? You can't, because they met alone, so now only Trump, Putin and the Russian FSB know what transpired there. That's a legitimate cause for concern, and if the "deep state" -- which is really just bullshit AltRight code for "rule of law" -- is concerned about this, then more power to them.

Trump believed China because he thought the Chinese president was his friend and they had a "great relationship". Really. And his friend had told him that they had everything under control.

Yeah, Governors are totally eager to cripple their state's economy beyond repair.

Well first of all, if 100% stay at home, the virus would be totally eradicated in 2 or 3 weeks.

Now, since 100% can't stay home, the ersatz idea is that as many people as possible stay at home as much as possible, bringing the reproductive number below 1 and thus making the infection rate fall instead of rise, until the rate has fallen to a value where you can control the spread entirely through mass testing and contact tracing of infected people, while at the same time lifting the majority of the restrictions for everyone. This is working in other countries. And if you listen to Fauci, this is what he's actually proposing, as opposed to "everyone stays at home indefinitely".

Just share your desktop and run a shared doodle or freaking google spreadsheet. o_O

Well, the President is over the age of seventy and he thinks injecting bowl cleaner into your blood to fight Covid-19 is "medicinal" and worth trying.

There was also unprecedented negativity toward Adolf H*tler. Just saying.

If you're one of the other 80%, and one of the 20% goes out and applies for the job that you wanted to apply to...well, it creates a great incentive for you and many others among the the 80% group to attend Corona parties, which would restart the whole mess that the hospitals have seen.

OK thanks. That doesn't sound good :( Would that mean we're all screwed in the long run? If everybody can get infected an arbitrary number of times, eventually everyone would have an infection with severe symptoms and die, right? If this is a possibility, this can hardly be the first time in human history that such a virus has occurred. How would it have run out of targets to infect in the past? Via human evolution, ie some humans being born with innate immunity?

Wouldn't the fact that the immune system can evidently fight off the SARS-CoV2 virus without treatment in most cases (as opposed to HIV/AIDS and Hepatitis C) suggest that a vaccine should be possible?

What would be really devastating would be an earthquake, e.g. in Italy or California, that would drive people in lockdown out on the streets infecting each other.

Not sure why the parent is modded "Troll" as he absolutely right. And I'm a huge SpaceX fan. But there's a time and a place for everything. It's not a problem to hold off development of a new launcher and spacecraft for six months or a year if doing so helps stopping the spread of a deadly flu strain that will likely kill more than a million people in the US alone if not contained.

In China, the number of new infections is basically down to zero, and most people did not get it. Even in Wuhan most people didn't. So there are alternatives.

I guess Apple forgot to build an ice skating ring in Texas to avoid this lawsuit. https://youtu.be/3bxcc3SM_KA?t...

Does Chrome for Linux work on Wayland natively these days?
