Not enough firearms. Or ammo. Your list will only last a week in the coming coronavirus zombie apocalypse.No doubt. For a virus like this, Surly recommends at least 17 ARs, 43 shotguns, 10 hunting rifles, 75 semiautomatic pistols, 8 revolvers, 2 crates of grenades, a flame thrower, 6 or 7 tactical crossbows, a tomahawk, and 37,000 rounds of ammo. Per family. -
Woo-hoo!

As long as you're not infected, he should be fine.What about the oral--pussy route? That's what I need to know.-

Right. What we don't know is how many of the infected are basically recovered but just waiting for confirmation, versus how many are on death's door.You don’t need a second test a month later to confirm death -
The numbers I've been watching (in addition to the exponentially increasing infection count) are number of deaths compared to number of recoveries. In mainland China, 170 people have died, while only 124 people have recovered. So, out of the 294 people who have seen this thing to its end, ~60% died. That's pretty sobering.The math on the confirmed number of cases and lethality has pretty much blown away the initial numbers regarding both lethality and severity of infection.
There are all sorts of concerns that they are purposely suppressing the official cause of death in cases in an attempt to hopefully limit both the local and global panic it would cause.
At some point, especially if the death toll and number of infected follow the currents exponential rate, you will have to see large scale shutdown and quarantine of most of mainland China. As terrifying as this is from a human safety standpoint, a longterm quarantine (even something as short as 4 weeks) will cause an insane level of supply chain disruption that will heavily impact the global economy and tank the Chinese economy, which would more than likely set off the impending collapse of their over leveraged banking system.
Russia and N Korea have both closed off traffic of people (but not goods so far) on their shared borders. If you see them announce that all crossings are closed, (ie no goods as well) prepare for this to escalate quickly.
That rate is certainly impacted by timing. Death can happen quickly, while recovery may take weeks or months. If the fatality rate is really as low as people are saying (2-3% is what I've read), then over the next few weeks, we should see the # recovered far surpass the # of deaths. But that's a presumption, and only time will tell. As of now, we don't know what the fatality rate will be. -
Same. Almost every day I flip through the national news channels and locals to see if there is any coverage, and I haven't seen any yet. I'm sure it's being covered, but it isn't being given the attention it deserves.Was watching BBC this morning and they reported that China said that on average everyone that contracted the virus infects 3 others. By now I think those 90000 infected reports may be low.
I've flipped over to CNN , Fox, MSNBC from time to time and it seems like it's all impeachment 24/7. IMO, this is a much bigger story. -
The stakes are just too high.There's really no argument against this rational conclusion. -
The suspected Texas case is in Bryan College Station.

The safest course is to nuke it from orbit.-

Music to be murdered by. Really digging it so far. Good workout tracks.Eminem dropped a album today -
I love this guy.

The Evans recruitment is such a clusterfuck. I'm so glad we got Bijan. He doesn't bring baggage/drama, is genuinely excited to play here, and by all accounts is a great human being.

What a beautiful moment in Texas football history. He was carrying that ball so loosely that I was sure it would be stripped. But somehow he held on.He beat Tannehill with that herpa derp.-

Our 2008 team would beat* at least half the teams on that list.
* Assuming we're not playing against Crabtree on Halloween night. -
He looked really, really, really good. I've watched every U.S. Army game since 2006 and every UA game since the first one, and I don't drink the cool aid. I watch specifically for UT recruits and generally come away disappointed. It's just hard to showcase athleticism with only a few days of practice and a bunch of guys who have never played together before.
But Card was different. He really stood out. I don't remember a quarterback in this game with a faster release and more accurate pass than him. Honestly, he reminded me a lot of Colt with his zip, accuracy, and ability to extend plays with his feet. And I don't say that lightly. He would see a receiver going across the middle, and boom, the ball was in the receiver's hands. Even with good coverage, he was finding windows and fitting the ball in where only his receiver could get it. And in high school. I'm really excited to see what he can do here.-

Who is fill in coordinator? Sorry, I'm sure it's in this thread already.How pathetic that the fill in D Coordinator is way better than Coach Doh at $1.7Mil/year.
I wanna vomit. -
I'm confused as to why some of our guys didn't blitz. It was as if they were staying back in case Utah tried to pass.A 3rd and 17 that isn't converted for a first down? I'm liking this defense tonight.-

They met on a dating app. They didn't directly know each other, but Bacon had shared his profile not only with friends, but also with friends of friends, and then their friends, etc. So he was able to connect to Bacon by going through a chain of acquaintences. Scary stuff.

Apparently he doesn't know that Brian College Station is in Texas. /aggy -
His football iq / vision / decision-making is just as impressive as his accuracy, and that's saying a lot. One little mistake on defense, and he'll see it and exploit it. He'll keep plays alive with his feet and wait until someone comes open.Sam could not make the throws Burrow makes. He was hitting NFL sized windows.-

Let me guess: aggy guaranteed the money even if Evans doesn't sign? Oh, aggy....Nah, he just already deposited the aggy money and is now after some Georgia cash-

Haha, well playedWait are you saying we're the "Always Save" version of OU?
I like to think of us more as "Target Brand" OU.... pretty decent product for the price, but definitely not as good as the main brand. -
I like reddit's take: "Store Brand Red River Shootout"The Red River Retardlry?-

Open field tackling is coaching. Scheme is also coaching, albeit not on the position coach. My point is that those guys have the talent to play lights out, and our coaching staff is a big reason for their struggles.Green will be good by the time he graduates. Sterns and Foster will be good. The issue with all of them is that they are young and are in a scheme that puts too much pressure on the dbs. It is not coaching. Jamison will be okay but he is short and Cook, well at least he was ranked high as a recruit.-
