Gift from God keeps on giving. ----------- Freshman enrollment has dropped more than 16 percent from last year at American colleges and universities — and by nearly a quarter at community colleges — as the threat of the coronavirus has disrupted the nation’s higher education system, the National Stu...

Re: First room-temperature superconductor reported
"There are just two catches: we're not entirely sure what the chemical is, and it only works at 2.5 million atmospheres of pressure." "At pressures of 175 GigaPascals, a transition to superconductivity took place once the sample was cooled to about 180 Kelvin, which corresponds to -93°C. But increas...

Re: Coronavirus General Discussion
Ok, sure. I'm certainly not always logical, but I'm typically realistic. Just like the local parents who want 100% School open right now are twisting themselves into pretzels trying to find every little possible thing that the school board is doing wrong to bolster their case. All it does is create ...

Re: Coronavirus General Discussion
Fox News has leftists? I don't watch, what do you consider leftist? Would that be like Chris Wallace? The definition of left vs right is probably also in question! IIRC, I saw several years ago that most Fox News employees were Democrats. Tried to confirm that but could not. However came across the...

Re: Coronavirus General Discussion
Anecdotally, masks generally prompt a "fuck 'em they're bullshit and taking my freedoms" level response from many conservatives, while most liberals would go "I know they aren't 100% effective but if they help even a little I'll wear them" Maybe we need to clarify what we mean by "help".

Re: Stock scream room
It's all about stimulus. If congress can pull their heads out of their collective arses and can actually get a stimulus deal through at some point, markets will continue to go up to dizzying heights. If they fail to do so, stocks will fall until they eventually force their hands similar to how they...

Re: Coronavirus General Discussion
CDC study show 85% of Covid cases were people who Often or Always wear masks. Rewrite that. "CDC shows mask wearing prevents 15% of cases" Does that sound better? Currently there's about 7.83M cases, 215k deaths, .02746 CFR. If we prevented 15% of those cases with 100% mask usage (1.1745M), possibl...

Corto, Thanks for providing one more reason to confirm 48 year old Judge Barrett. FYI, I am not against her being on the court.
