You're probably not storing it in optimal conditions. Youve got it keep it in the bag, only cut one corner to pour the cerial out of and then roll and clip that corner. Ikea sell a pack of clips for this although you'll find them in other places. Even a clothes peg would work.
No what I mean is cereal I've received from food pantries. I'd try the cereal the same day when receiving and it would be stale.

I'm a big cereal eater so I know how to store and preserve it.

:pie_roffles: You gotta be joking, right? Come to Europe if you want to see what scary gas prices look like. 3 times higher on a normal day.
True - I was celebrating it hitting £1.03 here - pretty much what it was in the early 00s I think.

Chinese quality 👌



Based on early investigations, it seems to be the case of 300 items out of a 20 000 batch, and would be to blame on storage in a damp place in the hospital.

OK some good news:

Number of new (known, cough) infected is smaller than number of people that got healthy:
1) In Germany for the 3rd consecutive day (although difference is smaller for the third day)
2) Austria for more than a week
3) Switzerland, couple of days


EU agreed on 500'000'000'000 Euro package, for countries who's economies suffered most from the virus. (let's pretend it's a random disaster and not some governments being more stupid than others, shall we)

I live in WA and there was a camera guy for the local NBC affiliate that got the virus. They talked with him a couple weeks ago...dude looked to be in his 30's and 300+ lbs. He only had mild symptoms and fully recovered. In fact, he just returned back to work...

So I guess he was lucky.

As I mentioned before in the thread a lot of overweight people have undiagnosed conditions which make things worse for them. Diabetes, Heart Conditions, Hypertension. Which probably also really contributes to this. Could be he had none of this going and and was relatively healthy besides his weight or could be luck of the draw.

I hope the Wuhan flu convinces people to take their health more seriously, speaking from the standpoint as an ex-smoker and ex-fattie. Yes, the outbreak revealed gaps in our medical system but I think the larger lesson is that our population's general health is very poor. Obesity + diabeetuz + inflammation + high sugar diet + sedentary lifestyle + whatever else is going to make a populace more susceptible to any virulent outbreak and no vaccine will be able to compensate for that.

/healthy people died too rabble rabble

BS.

06.04.: 3.400 new infections, 4.000 new cured
07.04.: 4.400 new infections, 4.500 new cured
08.04.: 5.500 new infections, 4.600 new cured
09.04.: 5.000 new infections, 1.800 new cured

Xi: "It comes from Ken-ya"


That tweet falls in line with what I hear from people in China. They're being told the virus is fully contained, and they're confused when they hear that it's become a pandemic spreading across the rest of the world. They basically know their government is lying to them. They know their government is up to no good.
 
So, CNN really is fake news, huh? Spreading lies about my country again. Shouldn't have fucked with our foreign minister tho :messenger_sunglasses:


I think the EU should let Hungary go.
Orban is not a Democrat. Hungary doesn't agree with liberal EU values.
I don't see this relationship having a future unless Hungary fundamentally changes its ways.


So my county claimed they would have 2000 deaths by Easter based on models. They have 28.
Are the models based on no mitigation measures taken?

Which country is that?
Such projections always come with a footnote "if people..."
On top of it, it's still a very basic simulation, it can be wrong.

Can't say about parallel universe, cut in ours, Chinese/Wulhan Virus was all across China.

LAPD responded for a reported 30-40 people at a child’s birthday party in South Los Angeles, in violation of the COVID-19 city ordinance. The crowd became irate when told to disperse and an unlawful assembly was declared. LAPD was able to push the crowd to the nearest intersection, where the people dispersed without further incident.

CNN spread lies in Latin America the same way they do in the US. Do not know their agendan but clearly yo can see how they manipulate the same information when you compared to other media.

Aso suddently comentators are expert on pandemias, economic programms, etc; my recomendation is to look for real experts / specialist on every theme and never thrust a tv anchor / host from media.

The fuck? You are talking about the man whose speech in 1989 fired up a whole nation and played a major part in the Soviets finally leaving and the restoration of democracy in Hungary. Who was prime minister for the first time at just 35 years old. And whose party got constitutional majority for the third time straight in 2018, but before this, he spent just as much time in opposition.

In what way is he not a democrat? I know the answer obviously, if someone doesn't play by the EU "liberal" playbook then no democracy QQ.

What normal people would agree with the self destructive "liberal" EU "values"? Despite this, Hungarian people are one of the most pro EU thinking people in Europe, they just have common sense and know that the EU can't push every stupid shit at us, like the forced distribution of illegal immigrants by quotas. Germany and France sent them the invitation, they can keep them.
