Main thing is you doing your best to get to heaven

👍

that requires you not to be materialistic

Human beings aren't built for utopia.

Read "Notes from Underground" by Dostoevsky

we dont need utopia

Human beings, by their very nature, need a dynamic environment that produces the maximal amount of challenge that allows competence building.

Otherwise, as Dostoevsky points out, humans would just "sit around and eat cakes and busy themselves with the continuation of the species." At least for a couple of weeks before smashing things to oblivion just so they'd have something to talk about.

I'm not so sure that already isn't the case today. 😆

Seems Valid.

Although countries like Switzerland aren't really going about destroying their land, either.

I wonder what the correlation is with people who are well-adapted to their environment vs. the political system they are encompassed in.

The data is in! 🙂👍

What are we looking at?

The article doesn't explain the methods used, but is referring that these images are spread-patterns of mucous from a cough or sneeze based on the type of facial-covering worn.

"To allay these doubts, Padmanabha Prasanna Simha, from the Indian Space Research Organisation, and Prasanna Simha Mohan Rao, from the Sri Jayadeva Institute of Cardiovascular Sciences and Research, experimentally visualized the flow fields of coughs under various common mouth covering scenarios. They present their findings in the journal, ' Physics of Fluids'". (Source : www.phys.org)

I read the article. It just doesn't visualize very well.

Notice the image "Surgical Mask & Hand". It appears they have taken a side-shot of each scenario. Although, I don't know the type of imaging used.

I'm sure their article could explain better. ✌

Oh I see what the silhouette is now

Derp

Its a little confusing with the n95 masks as they are designed to keep people from breathing in, but are made to be worn in contaminated zones, there isnt a piece for filtering out

It's not so much as they are designed to keep you from breathing in as it is designed to seal the nasal and oral airway. This way, contaminants have virtually no chance of entering your body.

Yea that's not what i meant

What i mean is they are great for not breathing shit in

But they breathe shit out without a filter

I understand exactly what you mean. That is the nature of the mask itself, which is why people don't like wearing them.

Well if were gonna make everyone wear a mask we should have it be legit and not security theatre like the damn tsa

@Killian

Then it was a typo mb

Meant out

Rather long typo, wouldn't you say? Don't be dishonest.

Can you not infer things or do you just take everything at fave valur

Value

Also, i meant they don't have filters when breathing out

I am not inferring, you specifically said it.

I will admit i fucked up typing it

If you want I'll retype it

The N95 mask is meant to be used in already contaminated areas, breathing in isn't a big deal but as there is no filter breathing out anyone that uses this mask that is infected is likley spreading more of the pathogen

Is that better for you?
