Got my company to buy a Dyson cool thingy fan. It's the only way I'm going to get through these three days of the British summer.

Don't forget to grease yourself with a thermal paste.

[woohoo]

It's too hot out. I've stayed indoors like a proper IT professional

if covid won't get them, skin cancer will. either way, problem solved.

Huh what? 2,000 deaths a year from melanoma. It's barely a blip. Lifetime risk is like 1 in 400.

Low Vitamin D leads to much higher rates of CVD.

Considering CVD kills 100 times as many people and lifetime risk of dying from CVD is a little higher than 1 in 4 having all those people at the beach instead of at home is literally saving lives.

Likewise there are early indicators that Vitamin D levels are highly correlated with outcomes for Covid-19.

While I agree the Daily Mail constantly try and fool and mislead their readers, there's obviously no trick photography there and that beach is a giant human petri dish!

FTFY

Bloody idiots at least BLM are protesting (sometimes sensibly) about something.

Yes, it's amazing how some people can be fooled by the Daily Mail. The total distance in the photo is well over four miles, the scene is compressed because of the telephoto lens; it is a trick often used by press photographers. If you examine the photo in detail, social distancing is working rather well for a beach.

I keep to the truth, like Boris.

Ah.

Indeed.

A definition of "truth" which we've never previously encountered.

Well, it's more that the glare could cause an accident

Can't be damaging that bright white skin now can we!
