Coronavirus: COVID-19

Plankton · 03-20-2020, 07:01 AM

I'm about to go into work from home/isolation mode. Just a few last things to tie up here at work. The CAD server is all backed up and mirrored to an ext. HD that I'll bring with me, and my VPN is all setup, tested, and ready to go. It's really fortunate that I didn't cancel my internet connection at home along with my cable last month, and also that I bought a laptop with comparable components as the behemoth's we use here for CAD and animations at my work. Whew. This wouldn't even be possible six months ago. I blame my fascination for the VR worlds of Twinmotion for all of it though, since that's what set it all in motion. So, in essence, it's thanks to a video game that I'm able to adjust my life to comply with the current social demands and to try and help save lives.

Do you happen to own a GameStop store by chance?

News broke yesterday that GameStop is telling stores to defy state closure orders by informing authorities that they are an “essential business” akin to grocery stores and drug stores which are remaining open as coronavirus spreads.

lol

I saw that on the news. No, I do not. The software I use for some of the animations I do is made by Unreal Engine though.

All set up at home, and the first order of business is a little cleaning and a load of laundry.

Your attitude about this is kind of annoying.
