@DudespostingWs Nope, it was a lost time that I was part of. Played and still have the CD first Age of empires. Also I played as a master of Half life (sniper) and Counter Strike.
Before online multiplayer took over, people had "LAN parties". Everyone brought their computers to one central location, wired them together, and played in the same room for hours.
🚨 TOP DOCTOR WARNS HOW TO SURVIVE HANTAVIRUS — "38% WILL DIE FROM THIS DISEASE"
This resurfaced video from Charles Chiu, MD, PhD at UCSF, is going viral again as people connect it to the recent cruise ship outbreak.
According to him:
Hantavirus does not hit all at once.
It starts quietly, then flips fast.
• Can sit in your body for 1 to 5 weeks with no symptoms
• Begins like a normal flu with fever, fatigue, muscle aches
• Then escalates into cough and shortness of breath
• Can turn into life threatening pneumonia in days
• Roughly 38% fatality rate
But here is what is catching people off guard.
According to Charles Chiu, most hantavirus cases are not spread person to person.
You do not catch it from someone.
You breathe it in.
• Contaminated dust from rodent droppings
• Enclosed spaces like cabins, campsites, storage areas
• Particles you cannot see entering the air
But now the situation is shifting.
In the recent cruise ship outbreak, officials are looking at the Andes strain, one of the only known versions that has shown rare human to human transmission.
That is why the response escalated.
• Passengers treated as high risk contacts
• Close quarters raising concern
• Investigators tracing whether some cases spread between people
So now there are two layers to this.
The original exposure.
And what may happen after.
No warning.
No obvious contact.
One inhale in the wrong place.
And once symptoms hit, timing matters.
Early medical care can dramatically improve survival.
Wait too long and it can spiral fast.
Now people are rewatching this differently.
It is not only about where you have been.
It may also be about who you were around in the wrong environment.
Which is worse… a virus that spreads fast... or something you don’t even notice… until it’s already inside you?

HARD RAIN (1998) has definitely aged better than it perhaps deserves. It’s ridiculously fun, but I stand in awe and sadness, remembering a time when a studio would sink such cash into a run-of-the-mill neo-western.
@Elegant_nudes Damn he got old, but then again all of us are old. She is his very young wife Briana Banderas. Porn Name Briana Moon. She's a Spanish (From spain) pornstar also.
@KirkLubimov Canada is going to be taken over and these people or sect of indians are going to do it. They aren't stupid they know they have gotten into power. Canada will be called Khalistani.
Can you guess the country? If you guessed Canada then you got it correct.
Thousands marched in Calgary this weekend with the foreign separatist movement Khalistani flags waving everywhere.
CSIS has raised the alarm on the Khalistani movement on how it's a threat to Canada and Canada's interests and here it is in full support.
SUPERTRAIN (1979)
This was a massive flop that nearly bankrupted NBC, and was positioned as "Love Boat on wheels”.
NBC spent $10m on production, including over $500k for a single, malfunctioning model train, before canceling it after only 9 episodes.
@Mustangs_85@TheStingisBack You know you may be right. I remember when they were pushing him like crazy (remember the BMW ads that started him). He was getting in movies but it seems like you see him and then you forget about him until someone brings him back up. You are right.
@TheStingisBack Clive is a unappealing actor and practically unknown today to the masses due to his inability to connect with the audience. His best role was as the field assassin in The Bourne Identity. He had 3 minutes of screen time.
Frank Miller said Gail, played by Rosario Dawson (47 today), was one of the characters that “screamed off the page” when making Sin City (2005). Seeing her in costume for the first time, Clive Owen cracked: “I have to work with that?”
Clive’s the best Bond we never got.
@TheLoneWolf68@TheStingisBack What you just said is true and also sad. Because I still see him as what that pic you have in my mind. I keep forgetting that it's been 21 years since he was on sin city movie. He's much older and changed just like me. Damn everyones getting old.
@AshtonForbes You noticed how he came onto the scene 2 years ago? Starting to hit all the youtube channels with podcasts and such. He's smart I give him that, but I don't think he's stupid. I think he's there to po po any information that touches to close to the truth.
Our top math communicator Eric Weinstein can't figure out why congress keeps mentioning 'inter-dimensional.'
Well, one solution to physics is an extra dimension. All the top historical physicists believed in it and called it the Aether until one day some stupid people decided space is an empty vacuum.
I refuse to believe this is hard to understand. It's not lack of intelligence holding Eric back, it's science denialism.
You're just not that important Eric. You were never invited to the club. That's why you weren't told.
I just opened David Froning's book "Faster than Light" and the appendix at the end has Hal Puthoff's DIRD, Spacetime Metric Engineering.
Wow.
Teardrop shaped toroid huh? Is that what this is?
They didn't just figure out high beta plasmoids can interact with the quantum vacuum, they optimized it.
@SatireSquadHQ you have to realize also that in many of those govt. positions are the same immigrants that immigrated to the country. And they are running scams and such to pull as much of their people into Canada.
Canada’s Shocking 85% Immigrant-to-Citizen Rate: World’s Fastest Passport Factory
While the world fights over borders, Canada runs the IKEA of immigration: flat-pack citizenship in just 3 years.
A jaw-dropping 85% of immigrants become full Canadian citizens — one of the highest rates in the world (per longstanding CIC News / government stats and OECD comparisons).
Arrive with a suitcase. Leave with a passport, free healthcare, voting rights, and the sudden need to apologize for existing.
“The paperwork was faster than getting poutine at 2 a.m.,” said one new citizen (translated from 47 languages).
Official Government Statement: “We’re number one at turning newcomers into Canadians. Please form an orderly line and remember to remove your shoes.”
Sure, many still can’t find housing or a doctor… but at least they can now complain as official taxpayers.
Canada: Where we turn newcomers into Canadians quicker than we can build apartments.
So I finally got around to watching the Hulk Hogan Real American documentary and here’s my takeaways.
The Hulkster sacrificed his body to entertain and make a good living for himself and his family. The amount of surgeries and pain he had was brutal.
Linda divorcing him and preventing him from living in one of the houses that he paid for is unforgivable.
Then she dates a 19 year old and they take his boat out in front of his apartment so they can flaunt it in his face is next level trash.
The judge giving her 70% of what that man sacrificed for shows how broken the system is.
Triple H and the WWE banning him for a period of time because he said a word once is pathetic.
Wrestling Fans booing him when he came back to me was odd..they cheer for the crap that modern wrestling is and hated one of the men who was the biggest star when it was actually relevant and didn’t suck.
Overall it just reminded me of the time when the WWF was worth watching and entertaining. What they’ve been doing for over 20 years is why it’s a niche thing with a bunch of no names that the average person has never heard of.
Hulkamania will live forever but professional wrestling is basically dead.
It will never reach the heights that it once had. It’s now just a glorified soap opera and like many other industries such as Hollywood, music and others that have their best days in the rear view mirror.
Hulk was 1 of 1 and will always be missed.

I see they're going to release the UFO files tomorrow.
It will vindicate my work because I studied the black project engineers.
I know what they're hiding. Can't wait.
What's an underrated 10/10 episode from your favourite TV Show?
I'll start: Darkness Falls (The X Files: Season 1, Episode 20)
It is arguably one of the show's best pure horror episodes. It's atmospheric, foreboding and beautifully filmed. Quintessential x files.
