What the hell is going on around here?

Post by JawZ »

Looks like we have a a lot of catching up to do. It is an odd feeling to be posting here. I was a member of SG before I had my first child and now my first child is going to Penn state next year. One thing is certain, I can't stand having to type **** anymore lol. We need a phone app with TTS and that's not text-to-speech, that's thought to speech hehe. Stupid question, is SG on Facebook? In any case, we need to talk.

I am doing well. And not much has changed other than the years and added wisdom. What the hell have you been up to? No good I assume? :)

Hi,

There's a few of us that refuse to give up and frequent the site. Unfortunately its moment in the sun has faded over the years. Still, I just can't stay away.

Hey Howdy Hey, it's been awhile, hasn't it? When I joined, my oldest daughter was 8. She now has four kids of her own, the oldest being 8.

I just signed in again from a being away for a very long time. I started folding again, and I went to look at the folding subsection, but it seems dead. It makes me kind of sad since I started doing that in middle/high school for this team, but should I find a new team? It makes me sick to see linustechtips is up so high, lol.


My sig is a bit out of date, and apparently the car link goes to someone else now lol
Main: AMD Ryzen R7 3700X, Asus Crosshair Hero VI, Nvidia 2070 Super, 16GB 3200MHz Ram, NVMe, EVGA SuperNOVA 750 P2 PLATINUM, Lian Li PC-V2120

Macbook Pro 16", Intel i9, AMD Radeon Pro 5500M, 16GB Ram, 1TB NVMe

Security System "NVR": Intel i7 9700k, Z390 Phantom Gaming-ITX/ac, 16GB ram, Seasonic FOCUS+ 550 Platinum, Thermaltake Core V1 Mini ITX, Cryorig H7

Many of us have moved away from folding, but there are still a few people in there.

Yeah, that's a good thing. Crisis brings families together I suppose... Crysis too.

Still a student and I work for the school, so everything is moving online for me. I stocked up on supplies before the virus spread to Montana, so now I just have to stay inside I guess. I don't like the idea of being trapped inside, and I fear that doing all my school work from home will make it harder to learn graduate-level mathematics, but at least, since I can do my work from home, I still get a pay check.

It is a good thing you can work from home.. My wife and kids are also working/studying from home, not everyone is as lucky.

Hopefully this "social distancing" will give enough time to scientists to come up with a bit more effective ways to combat this, maybe a good anti-viral like Favipiravir / Avigan , or even a vaccine.
