If people knew how many ways 3x400V electrical power can hurt you, they would be more careful in their daily life. And we can go on forever like that. I'm not that interested in "corner cases", but safety is similar to comfort temperature. If you can get 40% of people to agree on the correct...

I wonder if someone local is lurking on this forum. :lol: The data has been updated. It was probably some issues in collecting the data. In small cohorts any error can skew the results quite badly. We're now down to 11 active cases. https://corona.fo/statistics?_l=en ---------- Post added at...

Is there any amount of economic losses that would justify loss of life?

I was wondering if UV light could be used to break down viral matter in the workplace after closing for the night. :hmm: In other news: We must have been quite successful in the combat against the virus, because the authorities have stopped reporting on recoveries. We haven't had a single new...

Lately there's been a tendency to overuse words like "Legend" In this case, legend is absolutely spot on!!! RIP.

I know absolutely nothing about Warhammer 40K. I just love the artwork. That guy would make an excellent director. I spent a lot of time in Space Hulk on a Amiga 500, but completely missed the part about 40K. :facepalm: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Space_Hulk_(1993_video_game)

Wait... what... There's a manual? :embarrassed:

Our political leaders have decided to slowly get the wheels going again. The number of active cases have been decreasing for a while. The first ones to slowly get going are childcare and up to 3'rd grade. (~8 yr. old) The institutions will open but attendance is voluntary. The individual...

Some good news here. Yesterday was the first day with zero new cases since march 11. The first positive test was confirmed on march 1'st, and the top of the curve was on march 16'th with 19 new positive tests. The number of recoveries surpassed ongoing cases on april 2'nd. And best of all zero...

This one cracked me up. :lol:

Just a little heads-up ! The 5'th part of the fan art video Astartes will be premiered later tonight. Part one: YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCFMtdiQILuTZr22sKUeAOOA

An oldie has been making a small come-back. Luckily nobody pays attention to the lyrics except for the chorus. :lol:

I guess living in smaller communities is an advantage during a pandemic. We have not locked down completely, and most workplaces are still open except from schools and childcare. Bars and restaurants have almost all closed down, and would be mostly empty anyway. People here seem to use common...

This is my favourite response so far. :lol: https://twitter.com/i/status/1242237138239881216 :hailprobe:

It looks like the number of new cases are tailing off for now, even with the large number of tests performed. Almost 4% of the population has been tested. On a personal note, my sister went into quarantene today. One of her patients tested positive, and they don't take any chances with hospital...

The number in quarantene just jumped to "~700" :uhh: That's over 1.3% of the population here. Still nobody has been admitted to hospital. So far everyone has managed allright in "house-quarantene".

There's a lot of difference how countries decide how to test, so comparing data is tricky. Anyway: Faroe Islands: Population 52,200 (100%) Positive tests: 58 (0.11%) Quarantened: 247 (0.47%) Total tested: 933 (1.79%) Recovered: 1! One that tested positive worked in the neonatal unit at...

Faroe Islands is reacting along with the partial shut-down in Denmark yesterday. All larger gatherings have been canceled, and ferries will only be carrying cargo. Flights are somewhat restricted, but not as strict as I would have expected. We have 2 confirmed cases, and 34 persons in...

"NASA's next Mars rover has a new name – Perseverance." https://www.nasa.gov/press-release/virginia-middle-school-student-earns-honor-of-naming-nasas-next-mars-rover Fingers crossed that the name doesn't come back to haunt them. :hmm: :hailprobe:

It's roughly on par with spare bacon.:facts:
