practical advice about virus cleaning
An interesting, worth=while article about the virus. https://www.nytimes.com/2020/04/17/w...=pocket-newtab I think if you register at the NYT you get more free articles a month than if you don't. Maybe 5 or 5 more. I think this page is like that, but I found a page for another newspaper that only allows registration if you pay, so they're not all like that. Some clever guy will make a lot of money when he organizes bundling of newspaper sites. Because most people only look at the same paper a few times a month, and they don't want to pay 100 here, 200 there, a 1000 a year for maybe 20 to 40 articles. But if they had 20 or 40 articles, or even only 10, a month that they could spread out over 10 papers, they would pay 100 a year. |

Why would I pay for "news" authored by a bunch of America-hating lefty libtard fiction writers?Â* Good grief! -- Get off my lawn! |

That is strange coming from the hot spot of the US. I am operating with a bit more caution. I wash my hands a lot but I also wash my face a lot. Just watching a demo with U/V powder, I saw how an incidental contact between a contaminated hand and a cheek or forehead can go from harmless to encroaching on the danger zone around your mouth and nose, maybe hours later when you are off guard. |
