4 AnswersAllergies3 weeks agoDoes a diagnosis of asthma; put the individual at higher risk for contracting the Covid-19 virus and its variants; or is it irrelevant?
I have had asthma since 1989. I am 48 years old now; and still suffer from asthma attacks. Does this mean I am at higher risk for catching Covid-19; or is this not one of the risk groups? If it is the risk group involved; where do I go get my shots?
2 AnswersRespiratory Diseases1 month agoWhen criminal trials drag on for years and years; should defendant be given jail time credit for exact opposite of "speedy trial"?
I have a friend who is on trial for Felony. I have to take her to court often; and miss work to take her there. I miss out on a whole days pay. When she gets to court; they continue the case, and no progress is made in her prosecution. I feel this is unfair to defendants in general; as they may be found innocent of charges in end. The agony of anticipating outcome of a slow trial; and the lack of speedy trial...should create a credit for defendant (whether found guilty or innocent). Do you agree? This because; defendants in today's are stripped of right to speedy trial. My friend has been on trial for over 2 years now; and there is no progress evident in prosecution's case.

4 AnswersPersonal Finance3 months agoI have an excellent question for physicists, and scientists; it regards lithium ion batteries. Please read below for details. Can you help?
Ok: It says on warnings about Lithium Ion batteries not to store in very cold or hot temperatures. It flashes in my mind the Mars Rovers, like Curiosity. I looked up its power system. The power system of Mars rover has two lithium ion batteries as back up power. Main power source though is decay of Pu-239; as heat...converted to raw electricity. Now I know surface of Mars gets to -40 degrees F. So if cold is bad on lithium ion batteries; why are they used on Mars? Could this be a myth that cold is bad on lithium ion batteries, then? I can understand heat being bad on any electronics like batteries; but cold seems to help them. I might do my own myth busters on this subject; if no one can help me. By the way: I freeze treat all computer equipment that gets stupid with much success. Help explain please why cold is bad on lithium ion batteries; but they are used on Mars...where it is cold A.F.
5 AnswersOther - Electronics3 months agoYou agree you are more likely to get pulled over; late at night (when every one is asleep); because police are bored & have nothing to do?
I wake up real early in morning, like 5 am. The streets are completely empty at this time. I drive normally, sober, with seat belt on, and obey all traffic signs. Yet, still: Somehow I get pulled over easily driving at these hours. One time: Cops said they heard a woman scream in area I just came from. Or: Maybe I swung out too wide on another occasion on a right turn. I come to realize there is no one on the streets at these hours but druggies, cops, etc. Sometimes; I believe since there is no one on streets...I can just blow right through a stop sign after looking both ways. After all: Who am I going to hit? So when I do this; or any little thing I do...here come the police with flashing lights and sirens...pulling me over to question me where I am going, and where I came from. Also: What I do for a living. I do these same oversights during broad daylight with no police pulling me over. Can someone help explain this.?
2 AnswersLaw Enforcement & Police3 months agoWhat causes an old truck to run better when you boost the octane of fuel; also...is it possible to put too much Octane, and destroy engine?
I had this old truck that was running like poo; so I tried something. I went down to auto zone and bought me some octane boost. Put 1/2 the container in for 3/4 tank of fuel. Then, I topped off with 92 octane gas. Took it for a long drive, and now it runs like a champ. Now: I have two issues: A) Why did it work? B) Is it possible to add too much Octane and some how "blow up" your motor as result?
7 AnswersMaintenance & Repairs3 months agoAny body else but me; disappointed in quality of Wal-Mart products?
Shoes, and boots flying apart after only 2 weeks of wearing them. Face masks you buy...the strings don't hold and break. Also: ridiculous everyone cleans the shelves off of everything that is cheap...but never give a hoot about quality. My theory is Chinese **** that gets transported to USA walmarts is slave manufactured. Think of it: If you are making only a quarter an hour for your services; would you give a hoot about quality of product you are making. Yes: Wal-mart, I am blasting you.
