![]() ![]() If I limit going out, pay attention to social distancing and hygiene, my risk of exposure is tiny. Where I live, around 1 in 30,000 are known to have active COVID19. I cannot fathom if you stop and think for yourself, why you would behave in that way. People are quick to turn on each other and cast aside their morals. So – what was the point of the math and discussions on context? In Australia there is widespread fear, panic, and anger. The country is waiting on the assumption a workable vaccine will at some point become available. What I am doing is putting context around our situation.Īustralia is isolating itself from the world, Australian States are isolating from each other, and COVID19 hotspots are isolated even further. History will decide that, and it will not just be about death rates. It might seem like it – but I am not actually judging who has done it better or worse. In the US around 413 people per million have died from COVID19. You are 27 times more likely to have a positive COVID19 result in America than you are in Australia.īecause the US has around 13 times the population of Australia, it means for each person testing positive for COVID19 here, there have been 350 positive cases in the US. About 11.6% of the population has been covered, compared to 12.3% in the US.Īs of today, 0.037% of people tested here have come back positive. In Australia, our COVID19 testing coverage has been like the US. While I accept the reasoning behind this disappointing turn of events, I have found myself frustrated by the inability of most Australians to do math. Do not be concerned – Australia has a heavy suppression, maybe eradication approach to COVID19. Outside of the game, we have just entered a second COVID19 lockdown where I live in Australia. I glanced around for some drama and tears, but mostly I just saw people pointing out it was overpriced.Ĭurrently I am getting my gaming fix by playing Minecraft. A pay to win sellout that would have filled the forums with spite and anger. I mention it as in the not so distant past this would have been something players would have been up in arms over. I will get back to it at some point.ĬCP have released a training boost bundle for sale. ![]() I still have a bunch of stuff to sell off, but I lost interest in playing the market games. A Stormbringer cruiser might have been more interesting, but I was literally unable to fit one yet. I set up a Skybreaker frigate – but found it relatively pointless solo. The new EDENCOM ship hull prices were OK, but many of the skillbooks were unavailable and modules and especially ammo were ridiculously expensive. I have had a look at the new Vorton Projector weaponry. ![]() Mostly I just log into my character selection screens, do the daily bonus/es, then log out without entering the hanger. (Not that I would take what I have said as gospel – I have not been paying close attention.) I suspect the fear of major trade routes being broken were unwarranted. When I last looked, the only systems which have fallen either bordered Low Sec or were dead end systems. I am still not sure what the final impact is for systems that fall to the Triglavians. I noticed this difference between my Omega Accounts: The new screen setup is a very pleasant and productive place to sit, particularly for running multiple EVE clients. I do not make light of the impact COVID has. By the time that was done and came back negative a few days later her infection had turned into Sepsis. ![]() She got a fever, but her doctor refused to see her until she had a COVID test. To juxtapose that story, my mother just came out of the hospital today. Strangely I have COVID to thank for the upgrades, and the substantial savings made last year on expenses like petrol, tolls, entertainment, and travel. I have enjoyed watching the last couple Cricket Tests on it.Ī substantial amount of research and patience went these upgrades – comparing, measuring, selecting stands, watching prices, and waiting for sales. I also updated the TV in my study – from the old 32” FHD to a 43” 4K, along with an upgrade to 4K Blu-Ray and a small but effective Bose Soundbar. If it is of interest to anyone, I set the 4K screens with 125% scaling, use the NVIDIA Control Panel to align them, DisplayFusion to manage having different backgrounds on some of the screens, Desksoft’s WindowManager to automatically move and resize certain applications, and BarRaider’s Stream Deck Window Mover to manually move and resize certain applications. Windows and some applications do not handle mixed high resolution displays all that well, so it takes a bit of tweaking to get things to work nicely. I am now running six screens, three 4K and 3 FHD. ![]()
