    Getting back to asteroids.
    If we are 100% sure an asteroid will hit Earth but will only kill 0.01% of the population and need leave some wounded.
    What reasonable measures, if any, are we to take?

      - Don't blow it.
      - Keep it simple.
      - Count your money.

    • Wrong thread. Asteroid of the day thread plsnb
    • The thing was, chances of a human getting hit by an meteorite, not the earth itself.ApeRobot
    • Imagine if we can stop that asteroid from killing even 30% of that 0.01% by washing our fucking hands and wearing a goddamn mask and staying home for a while.nb
    • a while? it's been a year ffs.ApeRobot
    • no restaurant
      no concert
      no parties
      no drinks in a bar
      no socializing
      and so on....
      curfew and the list goes on.

    • for a year...i'm tired of this.ApeRobot
    • By the way, you do not destroy viruses.ApeRobot
    • Where do you live that all those things have been closed for a year? Restos are open in nyc even. I see people working in cafes.nb
    • “I want to drink in a bar” is the most whiny entitled shit I’ve ever heard in my lifenb
    • But I like the bars mommy. They’re my favowitenb
    • hang on I missed this ape, can you explain the stats on an individual getting hit by a meteorite pls?fadein11
    • @nb, i'm in Belgium, and yes, life has been on hold for a year now. Social life has been cancelled here.ApeRobot
    • and fuck you by the way. ;)ApeRobot
    • "The thing was, chances of a human getting hit by an meteorite, not the earth itself."
      So 0.01% is the not the death rate but the chance of Covid hitting Earth?

      I'm trying to get people on your side by putting things into perspective.

    • You got more chance to die from a meteorite impact than dying from covid according to Nasa odds about eventual impact.ApeRobot
    • What are the chances of getting hit by a meteorite impact? The same as getting infected by Covid?palimpsest
    • Stay focused.
      We can do this.

    • Had it in Dec... Still not 100%necromation
    • the chances of seeing asteroids after drinking one of the belgian strong beers are 100%.uan
    • HahahahaGnash
    • lol, true that.ApeRobot
    • No actions necessary. 0.1% death is acceptable and warrants no response by anyone, anywhere, for any reason. Obviously.monospaced
    • Also, Ape, it was a year because a bunch of knuckle dragging, science denying, FUCKTARDs didn't want to wear a mask, you dense clown.monospaced
    • If EVERYONE had worn masks and stayed in a few weeks it could have been curbed. But no, they didn't do shit, and those same assholes are now whining about a yrmonospaced
    • Mono, as always, comes from some unicorn land. Mask barely work, they act more as virtue signaling: "hey, remember we are still in pandemic" than mitigation.pr2
    • But in the unicorn land science isn't one of the pillars of reality.pr2
    • What happened to Space Force? Wasn't that supposed to deal with: asteroids, rogue enemy satellites, space junk, hypersonic weapons and aliens.utopian
    • Space force was created to deal with klingons, utopianscarabin
    • @pr2, you're so full of shit. If masks didn't help, why do doctors wear them? Why do they suggest wearing them?monospaced
    • The only person here in unicorn land is your data skewing, science denying, expert mocking clown ass. And everyone else here knows it, pr2.monospaced
    • You act like you have gleaned some kind of conclusion that the world experts overlooked, and which you cannot even relate here in a way that makes sense.monospaced
    • But hey, you're a high school grad film maker who once shot a video in a hospital. So I guess you're some expert and all the doctors are full of shit. Ok doogiemonospaced
    • You're the kind of jackass that would say an asteroid has the same chance as killing you as a virus, and would therefore conclude you shouldn't care.monospaced
    • You're also the type that sees more deaths per day than 9/11, all 100% covid, and still deny that anything should be done to prevent it. Morally fucked clown.monospaced
    • Def bro I know a lot of people who died from asteroids, personally and historicallynb
    • Honestly this "as likely as an asteroid" crowd is on par with flat-earthers. Yeeshnb
    • mono, now i'm CERTAIN you NEVER read even one paper about mask because almost every paper about masks and their general ineffectiveness addresses...pr2
    • ... the "why doctors weary it" issue. So yeah, congratulations to reveal yourself to be total ignoramus.pr2
    • They wear them so people don’t recognize them later on the street by the smell of their breathnb
    • fucking retard, pr2, please explain why ALL DOCTORS wear masks then you science-denying, high school (max) educated, wannabe doctor film maker dunce?monospaced
    • I get that you distort the papers you read to fit your narrative, because you're overly emotional about this, but you clearly have a reading problem. Moron.monospaced
    • Now I'm convinced that you actually don't read very well at all, which explains your absolute shit conclusions you draw from statistics.monospaced
    • And for the record, the majority of all health professionals on this planet would say you're flat out wrong. Fact.monospaced
