  1. What I read was this from the IRS website while trying to help my inlaws parents get $500 for kids until they reach 17. At that point the 17-24 year olds must have filed taxes in 18 or 19, must not be claimed on their parents taxes, AND cannot get money if they COULD be claimed on their parents taxes. Because kids in college can continue to be claimed b their parents they are not eligible for anything even if they are claimed by their parents. (EDIT: there's info contradicting my last statement, trying to find exactly where I read that on the IRS website but am unable to connect. They must hired that outfit who built their healthcare website to help out with corona) This was an extremely fucked up part of the whole bill. The $2.2 Trillion bill all the asshats spent weeks arguing over, that only part of actually goes to the people it was supposed to provide immediate relief. And it's not free money for the people who get it, just an advance against future tax returns. Meanwhile, if you dig deep you find a significant amount of the money handed out was in the form of grants--free money for those entities who received it.
  2. Let's be fair, aggy needs a tard guard when they go in public. Exceptions must be made for the greater good.
  3. In Austin: I-35 about 60-70% normal depending on direction, notably less rush hour traffic. mopac and 360 are down considerably. 620 isn't skipping a beat, busy as summer with school out. City obviously using this time to do some major road projects on 2222 and SW parkway
  4. Dude, you're just a beating. I don't even necessarily disagree with some of your posts, but damn son. This timeline sucks. I much prefer the one where CTJ stays in RC And BradATX stays in CR
  5. I was actually thinking about that, Singapore or Emirates cabin suites are nice for a long hop, but historically that was offset by several hours wasted at TSA and customs. Guess that won't be the case for a while. Mexico has some of the worst customs waits I have ever seen (holy shit Guadalajara), the commercial arrivals looks like the bus station in India. Probably hours just figuring out what line they are in. The private arrival is about 100 feet to the left, same number of desks. Pick one, they are all open. On return to US you do have to make an extra stop at the first airport in route to clear customs. But you're spending 5 minutes at say Laredo Intl. then return to your FBO instead of baggage check and customs at like DFW.
  6. Sure thing. I'll go for possible coincidence with 2 separate statements. covid-19 might have started in a lab: So there's a new level 4 bio lab in china, built a few years ago and the only one in China that can study the worst shit on planet. Ok fine the lab was to be built by the French, but the Chinese dicided to do it theirselves. Ok, I mean they are known for building quality shit the lab is a couple hundred yards from the wet market where thing is THOUGHT to have originated. Uhh, ok there happens to be a researcher who has been studying and publishing papers on bat corona viruses. Uhh, hmm. she happens to be researching exactly how thesebat corona viruses can infect humans. Well... Lab post job opening in November to help study why bats caronavirus but are long lived. Welp lab posts job opening that the discovered a new and terrible disease and need someone to come deal with it. Ok, fuck that researcher disappears, CCP says she's fine but no one can find her. Yeah missing researchers info scrubbed from labs website. Ok, this may not mean much unless China was trying to cover something up. CCP has also covered this thing up for months and downplayed the seriousness. Well, this is fact. Oh and an attempt to cover up CCP censoring scientists for talking about coronavirus. Pretty normal behavior for CCP, still, coincidence other Chinese scientists blame the lab for letting it out through sloppy safety practices. Coincidences are mounting yet another doctor with detailed knowledge of workings in lab claims several workers infected, viroriginated in lab. Heh, coincidence these doctors and scientists must be anonymous. Oops, they used their real names and info is public on web. Just a side note. A few days later the top bioweapons expert from PLA assumes control over lab. But coincidence remdesvir given to China by US is preemptively patented by pharma owned by son of former CCP leader. A follow the $$ coincidence Coved-19 might have originated in a wet market: Far more likely a new coronavirus just mutated to a form that's both deadly and can infect humans, then jumped to pangolins, then on to humans. And the only coincidence is that this happens at the same time everything else was happening related to the lab. So I will admit that I got carried away. There's not overwhelming evidence, really there's nothing to see here but a whole bunch of coincidences I mean, the simplest solution is certainly not that the virus leaked out of a new lab studying the very thing that is now plaguing us and happens to be a block away from where they think it originated. Diseases just don't ever leak out of labs.
  7. Beach got crazy leading up to spring break, that first weekend of SB in mid march was nuts all thing considered. It seemed every day afterward the number of people halved it closed. I was more than happy to shelter in place/social distance on the beach during the days with the next closest person hanging out 50-100 yards away. Of course there was an exception at cinnamon shores, a group of what looked like 7-8 families arrived after spring break and crowded together with their 30 or so kids. Social distancing completely escaped them.
  8. I'm not claiming it was made in a lab but there are several scientists who are doing exactly that. And according to them the Australian virologist is correct that the previously studied bat virus is not the progenitor virus. That would more likely be SARS1 with sequences inserted from the other bat virus and possibly HIV. i don't know enough about the underlying science to say if the evidence provided means its natural or manipulated, but the evidence is interesting and at face value points to the very real possibility this was modified in the lab. Now, when you go look at what they were studying, at that lab and the papers being published by the lead researcher over the past decade.... well, it becomes clear that "no evidence" is an absolutely false statement. There is evidence and it's significant, though that doesn't automatically make it true.
  9. Quinine slows growth and reproduction of malaria parasite in the red blood cells doesn't kill it, so as a malaria treatment there was often relapse weeks later. I personally think zinc kills viruses, and this does not solve the zinc absorption issue in he cells where covid19 reproduces, that's the mechanism chloroquine provides for the zinc as I understand it. ive heard zinc will kill the herp, so maybe we can send some zinc to raydog so he can do some official surly clinical experiments on some of his girlfriends co-workers. Bound to be a plethora of candidates, he can crush some zinc pills up and spit on it, slather it on his subjects herps then document everything with lots of pics. Of course he can publish all his finding right here, though is NSFW still necessary?
  10. At this point there is overwhelming evidence that covid19 leaked from the lab. theres another utube video called "The first documentary movie on CCP virus, Tracking Down the Origin of the Wuhan Coronavirus" that goes further with research papers from the same lead scientist going back a decade and further evidence that point to a kid up scenario. Something, something the S protein sequence of SARS was compared to Covid19 and the difference was Covid19 had 4 new sequences inserted in it. Also, only 3 known viruses containing all 4 sequences-- HIV, covid19, and a different corona virus from bats that was previously discovered by none other than the same researcher. Also, Sars1 and SARS2 share 82% same genome but the E protein that's 100%. this thing is getting really tinfoily but damn. There's a lot more down that rabbit hole with published research papers and speaking events, along with a spider web of PLA connections. Oh, and seriously fucking fuck the CCP right in their fucking face.
  11. That doesn't seem logical to me, a test that's merely a snapshot in time being more important than a test that shows a broader picture. serious question, if you got sick with an ILi and were on the mend, would you not test positive for antibodies? I can't see how the answer is no unless your body is losing and you're dying. so a test that shows if you've previously had or potentially still have CV if you're recovering, and possibly shows people who are immune... that test isn't as important as a test that says right now at this current moment you aren't infected with zero data to show if you have had, are potentially immune, or that you might have just picked it up on your way to get tested and by the way, good luck over the next few weeks. Makes sense.
  12. So here's a scenario, wondering about the legality. after 9/11 the heavy machinery deal passed, vehicles over 6,000# qualified for 100% depreciation in first year. So say someone were to buy a Tahoe taking the 60/0%, depreciating the vehicle 100% that first year, and then their accountants let them expense the payments over the 60 months. Theoretically is this all ok, and secondly are there statute of limitations on that sort of thing?
  13. Ive heard from 3 different people who are law enforcement (city, county, fed) that there's a lot of pressure to start opening things back up as civil unrest is growing, armed robbery spiking. Many departments initially gave directives to just go after bad stuff and let the rest slide for now in order to limit contact. Now they are being told to go back to doing their jobs so people behave again. Maybe we can get some other takes, @Constant ? Must be other LEO sources around here
  14. I get an example where say 150 years ago everyone travelled by boat, horse or foot (leaving railroads out for this example) and say everyone within 200 miles each coast/border have had virus A and have immunity while no one in the middle of the country has had the virus. So the border immunity serves as a buffer that protects the middle population from virus carriers coming by ship carrying virus A. But our ease of travel and overall population mobility today makes it seem like eventually an extremely high number of the population would have to get the virus in order for it to run out of victims. As contagious as this thing is it seems like nearly everyone either gets it or a vaccination to prevent getting it. When I first started hearing about herd immunity I thought it made perfect sense, yet the more I thought about it started making less sense in this day and age. I understand average rate of infection and how that's impacted as there become fewer possible people left to infect. Everything I've heard is there's an RO of about 3 for CV, or each person infects 3 others on average. So to me it's seems like around 75% of the population would need to be infected to have herd immunity,. I mean, sure. If everyone gets it the herd is immune. Maybe I'm way off on my 75? Not sure, but if the RO is ~3 then that seems about right before every carriers average 3 are all overlapping i don't really se a way to get to a vaccine before we hit 75% unless we all go into isolation for a coup,e months What we are doing is surely slowing it down, no doubt. But even if we slow doubling to once a month and we can get a vaccine out in 12 months we still fall short by several months
  15. I guess I don't really understand herd immunity. If the average person of some new virus infects 4 others but once 50% of the population gets it then they can only infect 2 because the other 2 already had it? (Oversimplification for sure, but the basis?) So rate of infection drops significantly the more peop,e get it. But then what? It slows down until everyone has had it or it simply disappears never to be heard from again? I'm not old enough to have have the polio arm scar, but it was my understanding everyone got that vaccine and polio disappears forever, except it came back recently on a limited run?
  16. Don't think you need to download an app for that, apparently it's already integrated into your phone and actively in use. https://www.9news.com/article/news/health/coronavirus/utah-entry-text-message-covid-19/73-5a1656e9-95aa-4b76-9399-0804648e4b According to Utah’s novel coronavirus response website, people driving into the state’s borders will automatically receive a text message directing them to fill out the survey
  17. Or go get the vaccine yourself and don't worry about the anti-vaxxers? As long as you and yours are protected why really give a fuck what other people do. i will get this vaccine though I have never had a flu one. I've been lucky and maybe had the flu 4-5 times in my life, I know people who get the vaccine every year and damned if they don't get one of the other strains every season.
  18. Looks like more evidence https://health.ucdavis.edu/health-news/newsroom/what-the-blood-tests-of-a-covid-19-patient-can-tell-us/2020/03 https://www.medigraphic.com/pdfs/medsur/ms-2014/ms143g.pdf
  19. Is it like I Am Legend up there? I assumed everyone not hospitalized split for the hamptons or Florida. Manhattan is at the top of my list of places I love to visit but could never live there. Best food across every ethnicity coupled with surrealistic environment for someone used to a country like lifestyle.
  20. I've always been a sucker for redheads, married to one. Bat they are bat shit fucking crazy, like not normal women fucking crazy.
  21. No shit. Zinc doesn't absorb into the cells all that well by itself, also several common things inhibit absorption. Chloroquine opens the doors for cell absorption. Zinc works well against viruses. Sooo.... let's test chloroquine by itself and see how it works.
  22. /never let a crisis go to waste/. With so many people demanding we give up our rights, why would all the assholes in charge want their serfs to get tested? There's plenty of tests for the ruling class. /tin foil hat- No CR/
  23. That's been one of the treefidy paternal hand me downs since the Middle Ages,, like hunting, field dressing, stripping and cleaning firearms, reloading, auto mechanics, use of tools, and always start a relationship off by putting some new dark blue and red clothes in with the whites. Even just 1 new red shop towel does the trick. just make sure it's her whites and to the end of your days together you will never touch laundry again. Small price to pay to replace that batch of whites, and make sure to pass it along to the next generation.
