You sound a lot like Dr. Falken from Wargames.
I’ve planned ahead. We’re just three miles from a primary target. A millisecond of brilliant light and we’re vaporized. Much more fortunate than millions who wander sightless through the smoldering aftermath.
It’s a great way to keep the UFO nuts contained. Let them scurry around the surrounding area as much as they want. Occasionally arrest one who gets too insistent and the others will take that as confirmation that something big is hidden there.
Some barely secret aircraft, a whole lot of accounting and clerical staff, and a tremendous amount of security to make it seem like there are major secrets being protected there. That is what I would put at the world’s most well known secret base, anyway.
Thank you. I was unaware that anyone was working on a new vaccine.
It’s a whole different and horrific issue for cats. It’s also killed at least two whose owners them raw milk. It’s apparently about 67% lethal for cats.
The current flu shot is almost certainly not effective against the current HPAI A(H5N1) strain that is in the news and making life hard for dairy and poultry farms. There likely won’t be a vaccine developed for it unless it mutates to become human-to-human transmissible. Currently, people can only contract it from exposure to sick animals or their environment. As long as you avoid contact with sick birds or cattle (or their bodily fluids or feces) you should be safe from contracting it… unless it mutates.
I will never forget my first play through. At one point I was exploring a pitch black tunnel with my gun and just a narrow beam flashlight to see by. I couldn’t see anything at all outside the beam of the flashlight. Somewhere in the darkness I could hear a head crab approaching but I couldn’t find it with the light. I was shining the flashlight this way and that trying to spot it and hearing it get closer and closer… and then my cat brushed my leg.
I jumped and screamed and scared the hell out of the poor cat. I may in fact have tried to shoot her with the controller. Needless to say, she no longer trusts me when I’m wearing the headset.
I actually don’t even know what that is.
Excellent choice. I was going to go with Future Soon by Coulton.
Have you considered listening to the pretty extensive explanations they’ve given in this comments section as to why?
I was just entertaining a notion as I lack the skills to do an analysis like you did.
As for reading the other comments here, I have read them now, and they are interesting, but when I first commented, there were no other comments here and the post stood at -3.
The same people who are downvoting you, I guess. I’m not really sure what the objection is but they are very consistent. I’ve actually wondered if someone set up some bots to downvote all the MBFC bot posts for some reason.
The idea was that Biden was rigging the game
Come on now. Biden Sorry, Dark Brandon has already admitted that they rigged the game for the Chiefs.
I’ve had two over the last decade or so.1st was a cheap 110v that couldn’t run the jets and the heater at the same time. It was, as another poster mentioned, very fickle about the chemicals. I started out using chlorine but later switched to bromine. Mainly I hate the chlorine smell, but bromine does better in hot water anyway. Even so, I was forever testing and fiddling with the chemicals. Hot tubs are touchier than pools. Warm water is a great environment for bacteria so if your ph and sanitizers are off, the water can turn nasty pretty quickly.
When I moved, I left that one behind and got a much higher end spa. This one is a 240v and has much stronger jets and can stay hot when I’m using them. I’ve also switched to something called the Frog System. Get your tub ph, alkalinity, and everything set and toss in the two part floater. The first part has a mix of minerals that slowly dissolve. The second part is the chlorine. It attaches to the first and floats underneath is. As the chlorine dissolves, the whole thing slowly rolls over. Once the chlorine cartridge is floating on top, you replace it. Every three months, you replace the mineral cartridge. It is incredibly simple to use and I’ve pretty much stopped testing the water because the system seems to be maintaining everything perfectly. I’ve had to adjust the alkalinity once in the last year and that’s it. I’ve never had to add any other chemicals since I started using this system. As an added bonus, I rarely notice the chlorine smell. I highly recommend it.
As for the people who talk about bugs and stuff in the water… you need a cover for it. If you leave it open, of course it will get nasty. You also can have problems with vermin. If there are openings in the shell, including the bottom, mice will likely get in. Whenever it gets cold out, that hot tub is very inviting to them. If they get in, they will probably start chewing wires and die horribly while costing you a bundle in repair costs. Put the tub on some sort of pad, concrete or otherwise, to stop vermin from tunneling underneath and watch for and damage on the shell where they might try to chew their way in.
If you are like me and love a long hot soak once or twice a week it’s great. If not though, you may regret getting one. They can be a lot of work
Oh, I wasn’t meaning to suggest you were wrong. I’ve actually feel that Falken’s statement there makes perfect sense. Falken only goes wrong when he refuses to act to stop WW III on the assumption that since it’s going to happen eventually, why not now?
