Project zomboid, once build 42 finally comes out that is. Shouldn’t be more than a few more months right? Haha

Me when I just lie. It’s literally in the first paragraph of his wikipedia

Adolf Bruno Heinrich Ernst Heusinger (a.k.a. Adolf Horn while in Gehlen Org.; 4 August 1897 – 30 November 1982)[1] was a German military officer whose career spanned the German Empire, the Weimar Republic, Nazi Germany, West Germany and NATO.

Heusinger was later appointed head of the military cartography office when the war ended. Despite his alleged knowledge and participation in war crimes, he later became a general for West Germany and served as head of the West German military from 1957 to 1961 as well as Chairman of the NATO Military Committee from 1961 to 1964.

The only thing I am reading rn is Capital but I don’t think you came here for political theory so I will recommend The Hot Zone. It’s the last book I read and it’s about the discovery of Ebola, its investigations, and how it got to the US.

Yes and no, it does kill people so fast that it would run into spreading roadblocks here and there but its main issue is that it is not airborne. Should it be, the rate it kills people would be unlikely to matter unless we took very serious precautions that some countries have proven to be unwilling to do. It also has a decently long incubation period that could shed disease while not obviously infected.

If Ebola Zaire were airborne (while being as infectious as it is through other methods which is admittedly a stretch but not a huge one) and it got into a major American city and we did not quarantine in time it’d be fucking over. Like we would be unbelievably fucked. The casualties world wide would be astronomical. Covid would be a joke in comparison.

Ebola has the potential to be a big fucking deal but thankfully it is not.

I am actually more scared of Ebola Sudan for the kill rate reason. If it became airborne I think things could be worse. However, Ebola Reston is more closely related to Ebola Zaire so we don’t need to worry about that just yet.

This Ebola outbreak convinced me to read the hot zone. As awful and scary as Ebola is I want everyone reading this to know that it is not a global threat at the moment. This is not a disease that spreads easily.

It would take a very specific species (Ebola Reston) jumping from primate to human for it to become airborne. So long as your country has a well funded medical system that can afford proper cleanliness, you are okay.

The current outbreak is awful and tragic and honestly preventable but it is very unlikely to be a major global threat, as much as news media might present it that way sometimes.

Canceling elections is totally fine if it’s our guy

There might be an app that has that functionality but lemmy itself doesn’t iirc

Ferrofluid for sure

Shitting on anarchist for lack of perceived praxis is a self report. Go outside and do real political work, they do.

His wife called the song and little dance he does to it gay and embarassing or something along those lines. I’m uncertain if the Chinese were aware of this though.

Spains been pretty good this last decade I’ll give ya that

I am quite certain that the crimes of this guilty land will never be purged away but with blood. I had, as I know think vainly, flattered myself that without very much bloodshed it might be done.

I think I’d be in favor of nuking Israel if it wasn’t occupying Palestinian land

No, we would just use it for better confict

Nice bait, Trotsky did have it coming though

This is quite possibly the mildest critique. I have seen more radical rhetoric from DNC liberals.
