Coronavirus COVID-19 advices

Posted on 16/03/2020 by omegalfa


Dear Community,

With the very sensible situation our world is facing, it is not enough giving more advices.

If you have the possibility to work from home, please stay home.
Wash your hands and face frequently, avoid touching your eyes, mouth and nose without a disinfected hands.
Be even more careful if you are asthmatic!
If you have grandpa’s or old parents, they are also a risky group.

If you feel fever, difficulty to breathe, cough, avoid people and call your doctor our your country health emergency system.

REMEMBER:
– The coronavirus is 400 to 500 Nano meters, so most masks may bloc it.
– If someone infected sneeze at 3 meters of you, the virus will fall to the floor until touch you.
– When the virus is on metallic superficies, it will be stay alive for around 12 hours.
– It can stay alive on clothes for around 6 to 12 hours. Your habitual detergent can kill it. If it is clothes that can not go to the machine, put them in the sun light for some hours.
– In our body, the virus will travel through the humidity of our noose and mouth. It will go down to our trachea and install into our lungs, causing pneumonia. This part can take 5 to 6 days.
– Pneumonia will give you high level of fever and difficulties to breathe but you will not feel the usual cold feeling of the fever.

HOW TO AVOID (OR TRY TO):
– The transmission is mostly due to direct contact, touching material, tissues, or people. WHASH YOUR HANDS!
– The virus will die after approximately 10 minutes in your hands (due to the body heat), but in 10 minutes a lot of things can happen, like touching our eyes, mouth and noose. WHASH YOUR HANDS FREQUENTLY!
– You can use mouthwash liquid, to minimize the quantity in your mouth. This way you can remove it or kill it before it can access inside your body.
– Clean your laptop and desktop keys, clean your cell phone, Android, etc..
– The car’s steering wheel also need to be cleaned as your gear box handle.
– Drink water, avoid letting your trachea stay dry. Drink water frequently, this way it will not go to the lungs and the gastric acid of the stomach to kill him.

FOR YOUR, YOUR FAMILLY, AND THE REST OF THE WORLD, WHASH YOUR HANDS AND STAY AT HOME AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE.

This world pandemic situation may stay for some more months, WE CAN NOT TAKE THOSE ADVISES AS USELESS.
Countries are spending millions and millions to try to stop it, and we know how much they love money…

Stay safe, play some games at home!
Use your CD-i to watch movies, play games, keep you children playing kids games… a lot of things to do to be entertained with!

Happy MAR10 Day!

Posted on 10/03/2020 by omegalfa

Today is MAR10 Day!

What the hell are you saying Omegalfa? Mario day? Why today and not yesterday or tomorrow?

Easy answer…. today is March, day 10th.

Write the beginning of Mario and end it with the number of the month’s day, 10. You will get MAR10 = MARIO, so all March 10th, are Mario’s Day! 😛

To celebrate this day I can resist in sharing this great review from my friend Flbond who wrote an amazing read on The Well Red Mage website.

Do not miss this read and Happy MAR10 day!

5th Chronicle – Timekeeper Substituition

Posted on 06/03/2020 by omegalfa


What is a Timekeeper?

The Timekeeper is the CD-i NVRAM chip. It will keep the settings, time and date of your player and the saved games (storage). Hidden inside the chip, a little lithium battery is placed with a longevity up to 10 years or more if the player is stocked in optimal conditions (temperature, humidity).
This is not the place where they are stored, this it just the mechanism to keep them recorded, just like a lithium battery keep the BIOS setup in a computer.
