Covid positive...

Yup... Just after two years (and three vaccinations), I'm testing positive for covid - 19. :(

Girlfriend works in the hospital. Despite that they still use masks, it's fairly certain she brought it home last Friday. She wasn't well in the weekend, but only went to the doctor on Monday.
I was probably infected at that time but because i had hardly any symptoms (i spare you a detailed look at my toilet pot, but it wasn't extreme or anything) I was at work when i got the news. It was more due to habit that i still wore a mask (and okay: i used the train, where it's still obligated).
But because i was roughly at the other end of Belgium, I couldn't exactly rush out of what i was doing.

And admitted : i didn't expect to be positive either. I was disgruntled when i canceled board game night attendee, but the test wouldn't be reliable if i tested negative (inoculation period and such).

... But i didn't test negative. I was positive. Just like my girlfriend earlier.
Our daughter's fine, however. Not that it means much, because we can't exactly bring her to kintergarden right now.

So... This is our first day of quarantine,going until coming Sunday (for her) and Monday for me.
If it wasn't for little one (she wants constant attention, which is a burden of I'm honest), i wouldn't mind. But my symptoms have shot up: I've now got a soar throat, tiredness and a woozy head ('fog in the head' if you want the literal translation).
Girlfriend 's constantly coughing and has lost her taste (well... Somewhat came back a couple hours ago?).

We had our parents - in - law' s for for 'babysitting'. She's gone back home now. But our own dog isn't well either. Probably not covid, but she's sharing in the misery.

But then again : daughter's fine. That's what matters most.

Stay safe out there!

I got vaccine and booster last year and still wear mask into this year.

No covid positive for me. I wash soap, dry it, then use alcohol on my hands every time. No missed.

Many people got vaccine thinking they are safer and dont wear the mask. Wrong. You will still caught it but minimum. MASK IS A KEY!

Wear the mask no matter what. Hope you feel better soon.

this, it sucks because a lot of people think masks are pointless or the vaccine makes you immune, which in turn infects more people.

Hi
I had covid the year before last. I was lucky it wasn't serious.
My girlfriend, on the other hand, was much less lucky. She had it for the second time this year and there were complications. Although she was very attentive. But she's fine now.
Everyone be healthy and wear masks!

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

  • Veho @ Veho:
    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite
    for people with beefy hands.

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but that's a long shot
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    i think only the red mario kart edition phat was v5
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."

    lmao
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    anyways, we need to re-normalize physical media

    if i didn't want my games to be permanent, then i'd rent them

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.
  • AncientBoi @ AncientBoi:
    I don't pirate them, I Use Them :mellow:. Like I do @BigOnYa 's couch :tpi::evil::rofl2:

  • cearp @ cearp:
    @BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.

    The issue is DRM
  • cearp @ cearp:
    You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60

    :rofl2:
  • cearp @ cearp:
    still, I agree physical media is nice to have. just pointing out the issue is drm
  • rqkaiju2 @ rqkaiju2:
    i like physical media because it actually feels like you own it. thats why i plan on burning music to cds
