Re: Finis' Experiments and Scribbles
Arrrgh! I can't use Pixabay/music now. It became VPN unfriendly and no matter what I do I can't play music there. Trying it without the VPN is not going to happen. Even "obfuscated" servers that hide that they are for VPN didn't work. For a while it worked if I seemed to be from Luxembourg or used TOR but that stopped. No problem. There are others. Still looking for good ones.

Re: Finis' Experiments and Scribbles
Thanks Bitkar. Ha, I spelled Sirius as Sririus on the light.
Pixabay stopped blocking VPN's or whatever it was doing. Now I can use it again with full shields up. I go to the musician's website when possible to be sure I'm getting the music properly.

A friend gave me his old Go Pro Hero 4 and a bunch of things to attach it to stuff.

Re: Finis' Experiments and Scribbles
I considered getting vaccinated vs. rabies in case of zombie apocalypse. In a collapse of civilization that wouldn't be available for after bite shots. Research: it costs about $400 plus it's prescription only so that cost a doctor's visit too. Doctors might not agree that zombie apocalypse is a reason to get it.

Re: Finis' Experiments and Scribbles
Well, there was some humor there. It is hard to express that effectively on the web though. Zombie apocalypse was mostly a joke and a funny way to make the point that a doctor might not give me a prescription just because I want it. Medically it is very safe but I understand that elective preventative shots would be lowest priority.
I did research the vaccine (Walgreens website) with intent to get it if it was $30 or so and easily available but I expected it to be even more expensive and restricted. Of course at $400 plus a quintillion dollar doctor visit that is not happening. Given how rare and treatable the illness is preventative vaccination is more of a whim than a practical thing. Certain professions usually get preventative shots. My nephew and most of his fellow students got it in veterinary school.
Too much information:
- It is rare but extremely fatal if untreated.
- It has few vectors of transmission so even in pre-vaccine times it killed few compared to smallpox, plague, etc.
- It is very rare in the US. Fewer than five people die of it each year. More are infected but the vaccine works given soon after infection.
- Most US cases are from wild animal bites. Bats are number one.
- About 59,000 people die each year worldwide. Mostly in countries lacking modern medical care.

Rabies is lethal!
What surprises me is that humans mostly get it from dogs!
WHO has a wealth of knowledge regarding rabies
