    Coronavirus Updates, Important Information, and Ancedotal Experience

    Yeah even GrabaGun is looking lean. Wolf had to ease up some today in PA. He had to revise the definition of life-sustaining. Pressure from legions of buisness owners and licensed professionals, no doubt. So there's some hope that a balance can be achieved--but in time to mitigate virus and...

    I kinda hoped we'd be closer to peak. Figure one is basically saying that even unmitigated, it's still 2 months away. There's no way you can keep a place like Philadelphia on house arrest for that long. The supression strategy with peak 6+ months from now doesn't really look like an improvement...

    I had really hard to treat hypertension until about 3 months ago when I was switched from hydrochlorithiazide to chlorthalidone. So my regimen currently consists of chlorthalidone for diuretic, diltiazem for calcium channel blocker, and 20mg lisinopril as the ace inhibitor. My doc had no...

    Spoke with my GP about this. Dropped daily low dose aspirin. Wondering about lisinopril (ace inhibitor). https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lanres/article/PIIS2213-2600(20)30116-8/fulltext Also there is a decent chance our dogs are harboring covid19.

    Never had to work with it, but I have read that some of the grout/glue that was used with asbestos tile also has asbestos in it. If asbestos is in good shape, it's a really awesome material.

    Yeah I think asbestos tile was more like pre 1960s? Not sure on longevity. Probably depends on how much moisture is trying to come up through the concrete.

    How old is the house? That concrete tile might be asbestos.

    Maybe, but for how long? The sub 3% lasted for a full day. The seller took all that day and half of the next to contract. So I locked at 3.5. So part of me definitely says damn. But then, where we are, there aren't many homes for sale, and even fewer good ones. We snagged a decent fixerupper...

    Really curious to see what this does for the regular borrower. Lenders had too much demand after last week's drop. Can't hold that many mortgages and can't sell them, either.

    Will the Ryzen 3 be an APU? If so, it might be worth the trouble to go with an x570 mobo because you won't encounter as much PCIe/NVME bottlenecking that APUs cause on the earlier boards. It becomes problematic, for example, if you eventually get a GPU and need to run a PCIe wifi card and want...
