Sorry to hear about this. But also wondering, are there any other hat-only threads I should be aware of? I only just became aware of that one. I don't want to risk getting hat-related threadlessness fomo. Not that I'm aware of. I think there may have been a couple of WO forks, made by disappointed WOers, but they all quickly died, just like BTC forks. The power of the people. In any case, I won't be visiting the COVID-19 thread much -- this was only to report my personal experience with my cousin and her family, which I think was an interesting and personally verified case that puts things in some real perspective among the mass media and conspiracy theory FUD. I hope it helps someone out there. As for me, I'm a hardcore WO resident, never really stray away from WO, that's the only place I visit in BitcoinTalk (bookmark leads straight here), and that's where I get the latest news on all things Bitcoin.

Rain rain and more rain The fracking winter is here May it pass quickly
You're lucky, Arrie watch the rain flowing away i have to shovel  My internet will be cut tomorrow. The phone company is from January first no longer using the copper wires (land line) and I have land line ADSL internet. I have ordered fiber but it may take 6 to 12 months before they can get their asses out here and dig a cable to my house, on the other hand I only had to pay 9900 SEK for it. My neighbors who got cable when it was first installed some years ago in the area had to pay 32000 sek. So I will be mostly using my laptop and free wifi spots in town to go online. I will try to use my phone as a wifi hot spot, but I don't know how well that will work. The phone company tried to install a solution using a antenna and the mobile phone masts, but they couldn't get a strong enough signal. So, I'll be on here more sporadically for a while i think, depending on how well the phone wifi solution works.
Your smartphone -> Settings ... WIFI hotspot?EDIT: I obviously skipped a line in your post, sry.

The good news is, WO is pretty low bandwidth, not least because Theymos has all-but abandoned the site and we're stuck in 2011. Sorry, just checked the bottom of the page. That's 2009. And now the bad news: if my memory serves me well I had a high-speed fiber at my place in 2009 already. So Arrie is stuck in at least 2000 with his tech.

Don't you live on permafrost? Edit: Can't you make a deal with your neighbour to get some wifi temporarily? No, Malmö is on the same latitude as Copenhagen. My neighbors wifi is unfortunately too far away, that would have been a possible solution otherwise. There are some deices called WLAN-Bridges, you can put one end on some pole at your place and the other end at your neighbour's: WLAN-BridgeYou create a private link from your neighbour's router to yours. Not quite cheap but not too expensive either if this situation will last for a year. Edit: Description of the process: https://mikrotik.tips/connecting-2-remote-places-using-wireless-bridge/

I would think things in Sweden would be better than that... Keeping you offline for up to a year is unacceptable in this day and age... Incidentally, Malmö is (IIRC) the model name of my bed, bought in IKEA! Also, yesterday I started watching a Swedish horror movie called Knackningar (2021). Haven't finished watching it. Will do tonight (from the beginning, for a proper watch). What a messy post I've made, jumping from topic to topic like a bee... Sorry...

Can’t be too many people with that bed……probably.

Well I have known about it for a while, if I had ordered fiber earlier I wouldn't have had to wait so long. We have had fiber here for quite some time, it's just stubborn me that decided that ADSL is good enough for me, and it was. And I didn't fancy paying 32000 sek when I already had ADSL that was working just fine. Didn't know about knackningar, sounds good, will try to download it before my internet is cut of.
