Can't do it without changing federal law and amending the constitution. So, no it won't happen.

I think you might need help... A denial directly from the company isn't good enough, but you'll believe an anonymous report from fake news specialists with no credibility while other media outlets are surreptitiously walking back their reports by watering down the initial claims.

Keep pushing the fake news. That story has already fallen apart. And the coup de grâce:

So apparently I got lucky. With the different command line switches I still got a crash, it just took much longer to happen. With the other switches I got 5 crashes in 24 hours (before I stopped restarting the crashed encodes) vs. 1. I did find another build of the same version of x265 that...

That's not how this works. There isn't going to be a vaccine in time for this outbreak. It's going to have to be stopped by other methods or run its course and burn out.

The they're testing vaccines on people now: https://www.foxbusiness.com/lifestyle/coronavirus-first-vaccine-volunteer?utm_source=whatfinger

Don't flush those...

*fingers crossed* I think I may have isolated which command line switch for x265 is causing the issue to appear. Now I need to see if a different build of the same x265 version (different compiler) has the same behavior or not. I also need to run this out longer to confirm that I haven't just...

There were other people saying the same thing well before 2015, but climate change/global warming became the scientific causes célèbres that sucked up all the oxygen in the room of the public's eye to the political advantage of the globalists.

Not to worry, under extreme public pressure (and very likely the threat of legal action from the state) they have now "donated" it. https://www.yahoo.com/news/man-17-700-bottles-hand-120815841.html I think their business idea/model was distasteful and probably unethical, but not illegal. They...

I'm trying to track down some crashes while encoding with x265 on the 3950X. I'm nervous that it's an underlying hardware issue. I made some changes to the encoding settings and now I get crashes if I run too many encodes at the same time (that really saturate the processor). I'm running 8...

Luckily it's flammable! (y)

Your attempt at humor/snark has failed spectacularly and in so many ways. It doesn't even make sense. Do you routinely run into doctors who can't read?

I saw that video last night and immediately thought of this thread.

I knew it was a gag the first time I saw it. Clever though.

Do you think this will actually stick / bend the market? Intel is not the market leader anymore. So the motherboard is going to supply 3.3 & 5.0V for drives? (n)

Bad news for some of you. 🤣 https://www.cnbc.com/2020/03/14/trump-tests-negative-for-coronavirus-white-house-doctor-says.html

Refilling the tanks is a little sketchy. You can easily overfill them if you don't have a real good handle on making sure your rig isn't causing the scale to read too light. I would much rather get an adapter hose so you can run it directly off the larger style 20lb tanks used for a BBQ grill.

I've said they keep making unforced errors through their communications. The spread from China was under control. The spread through Europe/and the Middle East was not under control. It seems the lack of widespread testing led them to the wrong conclusions. Again, there's no benefit for him...

Oh yes, all those defensive posts where I have defended the administration instead of criticizing it. Like all these where I blindly defended it: https://www.storageforum.net/forum/threads/coronavirus.11581/post-208765 https://www.storageforum.net/forum/threads/coronavirus.11581/post-208790...

Because America is coming apart at the seams. The two sides no long have a core set of beliefs in common and are headed toward a dissolution. At least I won't have to read any more posts from the unhinged racist who just outed himself.

Yes, once the curve gets flattened and the uncertainly is minimized things will recover fairly quickly.

It must be depressing to continually get beat by an idiot... He's so stupid he somehow escapes every trap set for him. The "smartest people in the room" can't find a way to beat him. He's so dumb he commits piles of supposed crimes yet leaves no actionable evidence behind. Are you sure he's...

This "theory" is totally devoid of any semblance of logic. It presumes an impossible premise as the basis for taking the action. Keeping the numbers low via limited testing doesn't stop the virus. People aren't going to miss the spread regardless what the numbers say so it can't make you look...

Stephen Hahn and Robert R. Redfield respectively Spare me... You act like Trump has enough bandwidth to proactively and personally review every rule, policy, regulation of every aspect of every corner of the Federal gov't before it can cause a problem. That of course is completely impossible...

Well considering they weren't allowed to do so due to FDA regulations up until about 2 weeks ago and how badly the CDC handled things with the initial test kits that didn't work and not having a stockpile of the reagents that are under a shortage. I have more faith in the private sector to sort...

So the CDC test kits rely on the lab having the necessary reagents to separate the RNA from the sample and there's now a worldwide reagent shortage so Covid-19 testing is still being rationed in the US despite millions of test kits finally going out...

This one made me laugh...

All K-12 schools in MI are closed starting March 16th until April 6th. If it's bad enough to close them Monday, why isn't it bad enough to close them starting today? The paper on the Chinese study you're referencing was recalled from publication. It wasn't stated why so it's unknown if it...

I bought the wipes at the end of Jan/very beginning of Feb., when I was reading the tea leaves on Covid-19 and started the thread, so I figured I'd start using them out of an abundance of caution. Long term storage of water in plastic is not an issue, however plastic is porous, so you don't...

I use tap water. I have some water stored. I don't really get the run on bottled water for this. I suppose it makes a little more sense than the TP run though. I did fill up the gas tank car on the way home. No lines there. I wiped down the parts of the pump I had to touch with a Clorox...

So my employer has suggested we work from home for the foreseeable future. We don't have to. We can come in to use the lab if we want. Additionally, there is a financial firm in the same building as our office, but on the 1st floor. We were notified today that one of their employees had...

You don't actually lose your money with a non-refundable ticket (at least on a real airline). You just can't get your money back. In normal times if you're not going to be able to take your flight, you contact the airline before the first leg of the ticket, and notify them that you won't be...

I would think that buying on the upswing rather than on the down slope is the better play. It's hard to buy right at the bottom.

They could just make that an indefinite thing. 🤯

Leaving it out in the sun would work too, though you'd have to rotate the box so all sides got sun exposure. Maybe I need to get those UV-C bulbs and rig up a sterilization station. 🤣

It all depends how it's shipped. I've had air shipments arrive much faster than that. I ordered a Sony MP3 player late last fall from a seller in Hong Kong and I had it on my doorstep 2 days later (DHL). Granted the typical international shipping on low cost items is much slower, but FedEx /...

Supposedly several days, perhaps up to a week based on some reports. I ordered some blu-rays from Amazon UK and Zavvi earlier this week as well as some used blu-rays on eBay from domestic sellers. I'm thinking to let them sit for several days before opening them after they're delivered out of...

The flight ban on people I can understand being less clear. They announced it first then rolled out the details. Otherwise it'd leak ahead of the speech and there'd be a mess the other way. I don't think it's realistic to expect the president to get into the weeds explaining that US citizens...

And, they're already walking back parts of it. Cargo is excluded from the ban. How hard is it to announce stuff correctly the first time? 🤔 Apparently real hard...

Well, I didn't mean it was ready to be used on people. But technically several companies/organizations already have vaccines (candidate vaccines). Now they have to begin proving that they work as intended and are safe...

They have a vaccine for it already, but I don't want to be the guinea pig for it. The reason why vaccines take a long time is because it takes a long time to make sure they're actually safe and work as expected.

So much for that theory after testing positive... https://sports.yahoo.com/jazz-thunder-rudy-gobert-ruled-questionable-days-after-touching-mics-to-make-a-point-about-coronavirus-201553536.html

Trump bans all air travel from Europe including cargo for 30 days (excluding the UK). https://www.yahoo.com/news/trump-suspends-travel-from-europe-for-30-days-as-coronavirus-cases-continue-to-grow-014314635.html
