You flatten the curve without a vaccine by letting it run its course with the people already infected WHILE THEY STAY AWAY FROM THOSE WHO AREN’T. So they don’t get THEM sick therefore not spreading it to OTHER people they know.

I 100% agree with this statement, my only reservation is, is it a one and done flu?

 

Does your body build an immunity to it like most flus where you never catch it again, making you no more of a threat to spread it? 

 

Does anyone really know how many strains may have mutated from the original, and how many can you catch in the future? Some are very sick, is this the strain that makes you completely immune from any others, where as the mild symptoms mean you may catch a couple of other versions?

How old is your iPod, and last time it was updated?

Maybe 15 years and there's no way to update an iPod Classic. ?

Not unless they start making it again in 20 years or so.....

 

I bought a new one 3 or 4 years ago, they are pretty much an iPhone now without the phone part. Or you could always load up all of your songs on your phone and use it as an iPod.

 

Works well with the truck and my Bose Bluetooth speakers in the garage.

Unfortunately, I don't think my phone will hold all my music because it barely fits on my 80 GB iPod. I do have a "brand new" 160 GB iPod Classic that's mint-in-box that I bought several years back but I want to save it until my current iPod dies completely because you can't buy this style any more, like you say.

At this point, I would never open it, check eBay and see what they are going for used, and see if there are even any brand new ones listed.

 

Might be worth some money someday, and there is a good chance the latest version of iTunes might not even work with it.

I found something last night, wish I would have found it last year when it started.

 

If you have XM, full subscription with the App on your phone, channel 757 is the Tragically Hip channel.

 

Looking forward to listening to it this long weekend coming up.

Nice! Thanks! I'll probably start up the truck this weekend just to make sure everything's running well so I'll have to remember to program that to my favourites.

I have two iPods. One very old, the other a little newer. Between the two 6K songs. Backed up with mp3 disk. The oldest has had two batteries replaced. Since I discovered IHeartRadio and Pandora, I fire them just to see if they still work.

As far as anyone testing positive, no one as of yet. Unless A symptomatic.

Don't think the trucks go that high in channels, the way XM is set up is pretty much so you have to pay for certain packages to get the good stuff.

 

I did find the Hip channel, 757 on the XM App on my iPhone which I can stream through the truck.

Oops, I misread your post originally. Our data plans in Canada suck so I doubt I would steam from my phone while driving but I suppose I could listen to it while I'm working from home since listening to music on YouTube sucks.

Found out last night a local business owner, little Mexican restaurant about a mile away from our house died over the weekend. Believe he was early 40's.

 

Getting closer every day, just wondering what will really happen when they turn everybody loose again?

It will probably spike a bit. Texas continues to slowly have more cases. It’s a bug that will fine most people sooner or later. That’s the reality. May be some mitigation meds. to lessen the effects. A cure isn’t likely. Or we could hide until there’s nothing left. Bug, jobs, money, etc.

I’m wondering the same thing. Either will be too soon and cases spike again or everything is ok and continues on the downtrend.

What happens this coming fall? Another lockdown? No worries as It has run its course for the majority?

      07 yukon xl 6.2 stalls at hot idle and wont restart

      By Jsdirt · Posted

      Holy s**t - not much of a parts thrower you say? You BLASTED that thing with the parts cannon!  You'd have been probably $1,000 ahead if you had just brought it to a competent shop rather than shotgunning a bunch of parts it clearly didn't need.   Just FYI - oil additives are really, REALLY good at ONE thing ... and that's emptying your wallet. They're ALL useless gimmicks.   If that has the L94 or L99, then #7 is an AFM cylinder. I'd suspect a failed lifter in that case.   If you leaned on wiring, sensors, and/or connectors while changing the oil, you'll have to check all that to be sure pins didn't get pulled out, connectors broken, etc.. Old wire loom that was barely adequate when new is certainly brittle by year 19 - make sure wires aren't chaffed and shorting out somewhere where you might have leaned. or supported yourself on it.   If your a mechanic, why didn't you just find out what you were missing and troubleshoot from there??  TIMED spark, fuel PSI / injector pulse, air, compression.  Can't make ANY money going the parts cannon route.

      2027 GMC Sierra: Official Discussion

      By Jsdirt · Posted

      LOL! Are you joking?? That wax SUCKS! 100% gimmick made to "look" good.    After just TWO winters I had severe surface rusting in patches over 90% of the frame. Only reason it looks great in the pics is because I SATURATED the frame every single fall with used motor oil for 14 of the 16 years I owned it. Otherwise it would've been sent to the crusher 8 years earlier with the speed it was rusting prior!    I sold that POS 3 years ago. Was a gigantic headache the second it rolled off the showroom floor. Brakes pulsated on the TEST DRIVE. Door trim fell off the 1st week! Interior squeaked and rattled, and the drivetrain clunked after 2k miles. 4x4 switch failed shortly after. Front end - ball joints, struts, hub bearings - all failed between 38k-50k. Engine started burning oil at 50k. Rear and and transmission failed before 100k. Nothing but problems, and frustration with the piss-poor engineering designed to make you give up. Well, it worked! Nothing on that truck was easy to remove ... except the wheels. They haven't figured out how to screw that up yet. Give 'em time ...   I won't make that mistake again. EVER.   Such fond memories ... https://postimg.cc/K1qf23tS  https://postimg.cc/gallery/X02z64J  https://postimg.cc/gallery/mHSRXZv  https://postimg.cc/gallery/D4mMRfL

      OBD not ready?

      By davester · Posted

      Different monitors do their test only under conditions specific to that monitor.  you MIGHT find the drive cycle conditions for the monitor that isn't ready on this site: https://lemon-manuals.la/   If it's not there, then it should be on alldata.com for your truck, but it requires a paid subscription.   And you need to know which specific monitor isn't ready.

      from another thread   Update...although the truck sometimes seems to idle weird and the transmission shift a little weird, I've driven about 7,000  miles and no issues.   However, the way GM has handled my rental reimbursement, the situation when my truck quit, and the recall in general has led me to this point...I have driven a GM vehicle for the past 46 years and unless I buy a C3 Corvette, this is the last GM vehicle I will ever own.
