who says I've not already got it? why do you need this to be so scary and terrible? why are you thinking in such negative and catastrophic terms?Get infected with covid and tell us that after you have recovered. Don't be a simp.
I think you're doing that thing where you almost delight in the idea of a cataclysmic world altering event.
it's not going to happen mate sorry. -
guys, pretty much every single one of you on here (if you actually get covid-19) will experience mild symptoms akin to a cold. many of you will experience no symptoms at all.
you're NOT going to die.
understand this is scary as the media is portraying it that way, but we need to keep some perspective and rationale.-

Four out of five people who contract coronavirus will only experience mild symptoms, a WHO examination of data from 56,000 patients says.
About one billion people catch [normal] influenza every year, with between 290,000 and 650,000 deaths.

good quote from a guardian article:
"When hysteria is rife, we might try some history. In 1997 we were told that bird flu could kill millions worldwide. Thankfully, it did not. In 1999 European Union scientists warned that BSE “could kill 500,000 people”. In total, 177 Britons died of vCJD. The first Sars outbreak of 2003 was reported by as having “a 25% chance of killings tens of millions” and being “worse than Aids”. In 2006, another bout of bird flu was declared “the first pandemic of the 21st century”, the scares in 2003, 2004 and 2005 having failed to meet their body counts.
Then, in 2009, pigs replaced birds. The BBC announced that swine flu “could really explode”. The chief medical officer, Liam Donaldson, declared that “65,000 could die”. He spent £560m on a Tamiflu and Relenza stockpile, which soon deteriorated. The Council of Europe’s health committee chairman described the hyping of the 2009 pandemic as “one of the great medical scandals of the century”. These scenarios could have all come to pass of course – but they represent the direr end of the scale of predictions. Should public life really be conducted on a worst-case basis?"

that's fair enough if you ain't got any space... yeah maybe try and create a little mini setup you can fit on the kitchen table or something.Yeah I would set it up but I just don't have the space in the flat. May set up the Volca Bass and the 505 for a little improtu jam though.

yeah them speakers ain't doing you no favours mate, but it isn't hugely important in the grand scheme of things i guess. so if you have a mixer etc., why haven't you set up your Kawai K1 and other bits? you still got the 01/W, and 505? that's a pretty good little setup already if so...

i think you should get a mixer, some monitors and an audio interface so you can actually use the equipment you already have and make some tracks with it.Should I get a black or yellow TD-3. What do you guys think?

I'm watching Picard... it's OK, not amazing. However my wife (who normally hates Star Trek) actually likes it, along with Discovery, so at least got something we can enjoy together.

I'm not willing to entertain your prophecies of doom anymore. by all means stay in the thread, but I would urge everyone to ignore your doom saying.
