My life generally is pretty good actually. We're both still employed (though we'll see what happens with Jovanna's shit next city budget), we got a shit load to put into savings between tax returns and stimulus bux, and we've been trying a lot of new recipes because we did that food delivery service and now we are starting the process of taking those recipe cards and just making the shit on our own. Going pretty good. Their recipe for tacos, something so simple, is actually pretty great. Also honestly being forced to work from home is pure bliss. I don't have to even pretend I'm going to work and I absolutely love being home with Jovanna and Luna and being able to see them whenever I want. It's REALLY nice. It's going to be really fucking sad for everyone when all these companies arbitrarily claw everyone back to work even though we all KNOW we can work from home now if they let us.

Bunch of places are going to see huge spikes. There's no getting around it. Realistically you can't just keep people from doing shit forever though so it is what it is. As long as the hospitals aren't ACTUALLY getting overwhelmed, it'll be fine. It's just stupid. -

The sale is going to come back anyway. Not sure why you gotta be such a fuckhat about it. -

I just cannot understand what possesses people to be such obnoxious pieces of shit to people like that. Get over yourself you selfish fucking assholes. Good god. -

Yeah that's what I said. It IS indeed generic advice. I'm saying there isn't anything specific, it's all shit people see discussed and then run away with having little to no understanding what they are regurgitating (huge game of telephone). -
Amazon can't get you a decent webcam because the manufacturers themselves don't even have any on their own stores. They are fuckin OUT, bro.

The heat thing killing the virus originally came from how the Spanish flu receded during the summer (then came roaring back when it got cold again), if I'm remembering the time line of things here. Also this is probably more related to the whole "colds and flus spread easier in the winter because everyone is cooped up in enclosed spaces" moreso than the actual heat itself but maybe it was both. That and you know, enough heat will kill any virus. Lol. One of the videos Betty shared with me from a medical professional showing how to treat things entering your home basically said that microwaving your take out should kill the germs on it. Looks like Jovanna is going to have to go back soon if they let the order we have expire here around the same time. I'm pretty pissed that they're going to make them go back to work when their entire job can be done remotely. I've been angrily cursing about it all day because the director of her department or whatever is a complete fuckwad and simply won't let people work from home even though it is indeed an option for them. He only let them do it during the pandemic basically when forced and is already telling them to come back the DAY the order lifts. He is seriously a piece of shit. On the flip side my work said basically only people that absolutely cannot work from home effectively will go back when the orders lift but the rest of us don't even worry about May because it's not going to happen then. Probably more like June/July and even then they're talking about rotating people in and out (and anyone with health considerations will likely get a pass which...Jovanna has high blood pressure and a heart condition that is controlled with meds but you know...one of the other reasons I'm so fucking pissed at her work ). -

I can somewhat understand the actual issues they have with how things are being handled and wanting to protest. I cannot understand going out with no protection like a fucking moron and potentially starting a huge outbreak. Plus I've seen the signs most of the people hold up and a large number of them are legitimately fucking retarded. I think my favorite are the fucking luddites that think 5G is causing all this. How do you even live life that stupid? Then just...basically this whole episode. -
I think Nvidia is tip-toeing around the publishers being greedy cunts because they don't want to piss them off, not because they could get sued but who knows. It probably is gray somehow because copyright law is fucking ridiculous.

Sorry bro. But just stay home. Most people are going to do the same and it will just be fucking idiots wandering around (I bet most of the people protesting go back home). The people really getting fucked would be anyone that is forced to go back to work and be exposed to getting sick. I would be extremely fucking mad about that. Of course if you are basically not getting paid right now, that still might be better...that or a temp layoff so you can get unemployment or something. -
This whole thing fucking disgusts me. The fucking rent seeking these companies think they're entitled to is sickening to me personally. Could you imagine if they tried to pull this shit with in home streaming?

Delivery services. Got food delivered last night, my Amazon S&S toilet paper order I thought I would surely never get just came in, and things are going pretty cool.

I stopped reading them a long time ago. He'll go somewhere better.

Yeah, the testing is where we're really fucking ourselves in the US. The more testing we have, the more we can figure out who has it and isolate them. Then we can get rid of some of the stay at home and shelter shit and slowly go more towards like...just testing fucking everyone everywhere. So they're going to kill like...all of their voters? -

What is "most deaths" in this case anyway? One of the scary things about this is that is has killed a fair number of perfectly healthy (before this) people. That's kind of fucking scary. This whole "can we get back to normal so we don't lose money" thing is kind of a shitty way to think about things. Things can't get back to "normal" but they should maybe reconsider how they're implementing these lock downs and look for ways to mitigate the spread but still allow people to work so they don't lose their houses and shit. -
I still want to wait for all of them to release. Also maybe at some point they'll decide to put this on PC. I'm not going to get this for PS4 and have to get it again like I did for the fucking Kingdom Hearts collections when the PS5 ones come out.

Glad you are feeling better bro. Stay safe. If you need to chat because you're going stir crazy, we're all hovering around Discord. -
This is about the response I expected. We'll see once we get it in our hands. USB-C and a much better battery (supposedly) are really all I needed to see. The battery life on the PS4 controller is garbage compared to others. Gotta say though I kinda wish they'd done what Microsoft did with letting you just use batteries. Sell it to us with an integrated battery that can be removed and replaced with regular/rechargeable batteries. Was probably never going to happen but would have been nice.

https://www.xbox.com/en-US/accessories/controllers/elite-wireless-controller-series-2 This is the one you're talking about? It's also hideously expensive so there's that. Lol.

I just do store pickup. I don't even get out of the car now because we both know what this is and he doesn't want me near him as much as I don't want him near me so it works. @Garlic Junior Hope you feel better soon, bud. I'm sure it's not the big one but still....treat yourself well. -
That is what it is. It looks weird because it is more XBOX controller shaped. I knew something seemed off. I don't HATE it but I do hope they make an all black one (or black/red ).
