Say 5 years ago I would have said: that’s nuts. But more and more these days I’m thinking, yeah having a house with some signal blocking might not be such a bad idea… not really feasible for most people, but you could integrate somewhat in new construction, and certainly you coild foil a room and use EM paint… but would be pretty weird.
Case anyone’s interested, couple of resources on SCIF wall construction:

There a couple open source repositories out there for setting something like this up, or at least the basic sensing. I started looking at it a bit but then got bored and didn’t try it out. You can set it up on a computer in your home (was gonna use a spare desktop I run Linux on), and the package had the ability to start to correlate movement skeletons as unique based on repeated motions. It freaked me out that it was theoretically possible to invasively spy on my neighbors on either side just by downloading some open source software… anyway I never went through trying to get it installed or working and it probably would have been a finicky setup, but the potentials for crazy surveillance are pretty huge with the wifi sensing, and outside of living in faraday cages not sure how much you could prevent it.
Damn, I never get tired of soprano memes. Like you can literally hear the voice.
Yeah get weird stuff all the time, but also I’m using a pie hole and have other blockers and trackers and things being blocked, so I assume most of the time it’s that and the cost of doing business.
This seems really counterintuitive to me. You’d think if you made your balls bigger, it would make your dick look smaller in comparison, which would be the more… traditional insecurity. Then again, maybe it’s just Gen Z, saying “fuck your conventional aesthetics!”
It’s like a wedding venue—you have to hire the stadium catering for it, it ain’t cheap.
Also holy crap just looked immune privlidge up and the central nervous system is part of the group—is that why rabies can lurk for years and then crawl up your spine and kill you?
Ah thanks—that sounds much more accurate than my vague description. It’s so interesting that there are these sort of autonomous zones in our bodies. My understanding is that when the viruses are in there, they aren’t necessarily a threat to you anymore—basically just sorta hiding out. But certainly in the testes you could imagine it being a problem for transmission sexually…
I think it’s like the dude who had Ebola in his eye, it can get inside the environment and stay there and the body’s immune system doesn’t follow it in. So, I guess, hantavirus is stored in the balls?
I do not understand the vagueness of most of the reporting on this, nor the ironclad insistence that it requires intimate/prolonged contact to spread. They keep insinuating that it’s being spread through contact or surfaces in their messaging, but there have already been some transmissions this time that make that seem iffy. The case study on the Argentinian outbreak of the same strain (2019) seemed to suggest some possible airborne transmission and did not necessarily require close proximity or long duration exposure—some of the people infected by the wedding were sitting tables away from the infected person and only overlapped with them for about an hour before that person went home feeling sick.
All that to say; I don’t see strong evidence to freak out, but I also hate the very clear political/post-covid hesitance to treat this as a thing that is actually threatening. Letting people wander around in public with a disease you suspect might be airborne and that has a proven fatality rate of 30-50% is really irresponsible, but “muh freedoms” I guess. In the atomized marketplace that has been subbed in for “society” it’s up to you to maintain your fitness for work, bucko!
Oh good, it’s gonna be clean, lol. Crazy. Thanks for excerpting that
Have they stated a plan for how they’re going to get the energy? Presumably the Utah grid doesn’t have 2x unused capacity sitting around.
Yeah this was my thought—we don’t have the department that works on that stuff, sorry! Someone could eventually lawsuit or drag execs into a hearing over their poor performance responding to statutory required requests, but how likely is that at the moment…
Wait do we get extra treats with plus? Less ads at least? Awww no, nope. We still get ads.
That… that’s no cat, that’s an inter dimensional being
I’ve heard Jeffry Sachs use the same terminology and assumed it was UN/Diplo speak for topic/issue/area of discussion. Like you keep a different file in different issues and work each one etc
giving off some very “Ilsa, Nazi She-Wolf of the SS” vibes
I remember watching some of this show because my wife was into it, and being sorta shocked at how much SA there was and how gleefully the show revolved around it.
I don’t know the exact thing; but I think it was discussed a bit in the news mega—basically there’s potential for corrosion and bad maintenance can lead to the stuff (whatever the latent state they’re keeping it in the tank) reacting and the reaction is thermal and sorta keeps itself going/getting worse—it puts off very toxic vapor (hence the evacuation) and they’re trying to slow or limit the reaction by cooling the system—not clear if that can actually avoid awful outcomes or just limit them by limiting the thermal potential overall, etc.?
Edit: here’s the link to the news mega response that has a lot better info for those who are curious https://vger.to/hexbear.net/comment/7188249
