That old Trump campaign video is why I donāt trust mainstream media, nor Silicon Valley social media, except as a source of entertainment, and oftentimes, not a good source of it.
Yes, current events included. COVID-19 is a dog and pony show. Of course, the planned economy killer is very real, and no one is denying it because they donāt have to at this point.
Yup; until I see reliable info from non-corporate, non-government sources, I have no reason at all to believe that thereās a pandemic thatās killing people like how itās being described. You can keep your ātinfoil hatā nonsense comments to yourself, thanks; I donāt just take the words spoken by news outlets and by government sources (both have proven to be liars countless times), I do my research and my due diligence, and of course, if I am sick, I donāt go anywhere except (maybe) to dreamland/sleep. If I have to go places whilst I am sick, I do take the best preventative measures I possibly can, which includes a face covering that isnāt plastic.
Yeah, being sick is no fun. Glad to only have to deal with such every now and then. Iād rather deal with that than a heatwave though. High heat, plus high humidity and high dew points equals misery for everyone. Blech. Barf.
But dame da ne though
I think I agree to a certain degree. If I were to get legit news usually, I get it from my own national news sites or those that are less likely to be inaccurate (again, as you said they have been caught lying before) like Reuters or AP. The others I usually take a grain of salt, especially if it spread to social media I would take some extra precaution usually.
There are websites like allsides or the flip side compiling news sources, but unfortunately they are limited to events that are in the US or directly affect them, so I donāt think I would go there as regularly as I liked.
As for government sources, itās a sometimes sometimes thing. Like yeah sometimes they are a resource for proper or at least better information but other times they are used to spread crap down your throat.
I donāt personally agree with your viewpoint about the pandemic, even if there is some thing i agree with like the government part.

Since the nonessential personnel quarantine order became active in Ohio, and even now after it has been lifted, this song has had a ridonkulous amount of airtime on local mainstream and alternative radio stations. Sadly that song has now been inextricably bound to the phrase āIām so boredāāor variations there of, thus creating a damn near Pavlovian response to think of and/or sing this Fāing song when I hear or read said phrase.

Well my old buddy Acer laptop finally died today . I dont sweat it too much because it was really old and i reckon it worked for twice as long as anyone could have expected out of him. I found a cause but iām not sure iām up for fixing it. I just might let it finally rest.
Hereās a pic from autopsy.

I have a Sony Vaio that I used for ten years, the poor thing endured a lot. The battery was the first to give up of course, then the fans, so it started to overheat if used for too long. I put it on rest after I got my desktop, but surprise surprise, the desktopās mobo died too soon to compete with the Vaioās lifespan.
My sister just recently was looking for some old photos that we had stored in that one and surprisingly it booted up and was still running. So even after using it for ten years, the old bud is still not giving up. Best part is that it ran with the infamous windows vista who everyone hated. 
Itās incredible how some laptops can last.

Sounds like a simple fix, though I could be wrong.
