wow, that is pretty amasing. Especialy since there looks that this wasnt the cause of the plauge from the begining.

"The infection was only supposed to affect those in the immediate vicinity of Hakkar's corpse but some players found a way to transfer it to other areas of the game by infecting an in-game virtual pet with it."

I hope blizzard learn it lesson and add more things like this to WOW that may make the game more exiting. 'I cannot visit orgrimmar today it is haunted by a plauge'

Thats a HILLARIOUS "oops"

Its so realistic. Blizzard introduces a disease they thought controlled. And somehow someway, it gets released to the public, and people dying everywhere.

Thats like the movies "28 days later" and "the stand" - exactly like it. The goverment leaks biochemical warfare, the entire country gets it.

Ha ha - good job blizz! :D

Why don't they just take that part out of the game, and work on it some more? =/

Hell no! We've waited for ZG for to damn long, and they won't remove it for a small problem.

It really isn't as big as people think it to be.Once your affected by it, you might die, but it'll take a while to be afflicted with it again. Plus, they can't spread it just by standing next to the person. They have to be hit by something. People on Draenor have now learned to stay away from the people who have the plagued, and they wait it out for the debuff to go away.

Um... Yes really?

A disease that slowly kills you and you contract it through contact. Just because the contact isn't sexual doesn't mean it isn't contact.

And alright, it's in a game so it's a bit more specified. It's still the same basic concept.

AIDs can also be transmitted via blood or other bodily fluids, I believe. In any case, I find the situation to be amusing.

It is indeed amusing. And the blood thing makes it easy to transmit. Think about this: if you're attacking someone, and they're fighting back, you're both going to have open wounds, and some blood can get transmitted between you.

EXACTLY! HA!

I'm right, you're all wrong, Sargon kicks butt! :cool:

    How can you tell the difference between real traffic and indexing or AI generation bots?
  • The Helper The Helper:
    The bots will show up as users online in the forum software but they do not show up in my stats tracking. I am sure there are bots in the stats but the way alot of the bots treat the site do not show up on the stats
  • Varine Varine:
    I want to build a filtration system for my 3d printer, and that shit is so much more complicated than I thought it would be
  • Varine Varine:
    Apparently ABS emits styrene particulates which can be like .2 micrometers, which idk if the VOC detectors I have can even catch that
  • Varine Varine:
    Anyway I need to get some of those sensors and two air pressure sensors installed before an after the filters, which I need to figure out how to calculate the necessary pressure for and I have yet to find anything that tells me how to actually do that, just the cfm ratings
  • Varine Varine:
    And then I have to set up an arduino board to read those sensors, which I also don't know very much about but I have a whole bunch of crash course things for that
  • Varine Varine:
    These sensors are also a lot more than I thought they would be. Like 5 to 10 each, idk why but I assumed they would be like 2 dollars
  • Varine Varine:
    Another issue I'm learning is that a lot of the air quality sensors don't work at very high ambient temperatures. I'm planning on heating this enclosure to like 60C or so, and that's the upper limit of their functionality
  • Varine Varine:
    Although I don't know if I need to actually actively heat it or just let the plate and hotend bring the ambient temp to whatever it will, but even then I need to figure out an exfiltration for hot air. I think I kind of know what to do but it's still fucking confusing
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Maybe you could find some of that information from AC tech - like how they detect freon and such
  • Varine Varine:
    That's mostly what I've been looking at
  • Varine Varine:
    I don't think I'm dealing with quite the same pressures though, at the very least its a significantly smaller system. For the time being I'm just going to put together a quick scrubby box though and hope it works good enough to not make my house toxic
  • Varine Varine:
    I mean I don't use this enough to pose any significant danger I don't think, but I would still rather not be throwing styrene all over the air

  • The Helper The Helper:
    Another bot invasion 493 members online most of them bots that do not show up on stats
  • Varine Varine:
    I'm looking at a solid 378 guests, but 3 members. Of which two are me and VSNES. The third is unlisted, which makes me think its a ghost.

    I bitch about Xenforo sometimes but it really is full featured you just have to really know what you are doing to get the most out of it.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    It is just not easy to fix styles and customize but it definitely can be done
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I do know this - xenforo dropped the ball by not keeping the vbulletin reputation comments as a feature. The loss of the Reputation comments data when we switched to Xenforo really was the death knell for the site when it came to all the users that left. I know I missed it so much and I got way less interested in the site when that feature was gone and I run the site.
