@Kamaji

I got all three shots that start with "M" way back when this nonsense started. Mostly because they were free.

That "M-Stuff" must be the good stuff,because all I have to do is show my card anywhere I want to go,and they just pass me through without even asking about shot updates.

Take into consideration that I am 70+ years old,partially crippled from age and accidents as well as various drunken scuffles,and have TWO types of cancer eating away at me. You would THINK that given my age and my health problems that I would have already died from one of Fauci's contagious diseases if they were as dangerous as they planned and still claim they are.

How many of you are in my age group and still don't have a sniffle?

BTW,I NEVER wear a mask if I have any options. I have COPD,and it is already hard enough for me to breath as it is.

Sounds like you're in the group for whom the vaccination is probably a good idea.  I got the first two "M" vaccines, but have decided that, at this point, I am not going to get any more.

For comparison' sake, I am in my early 50s, and my only co-morbidity is that I am somewhat overweight (by about 50 pounds) and am not in particularly good shape (work is a desk job, and I spend 6 days a week there usually).

I also do not wear a mask anywhere unless (a) I really need something from a particular shop, and am willing to place "nice" to get what I want, or (b) my wife is along and is making a stink about it.

I ride the LIRR almost every day, and have only once in the last year and a half been asked to wear a face diaper by anyone on the crew, notwithstanding their constant PA messages that "all passengers must wear a mask or face covering".

So far, so good; however, at this point I would not half mind getting omicron just to get it over with.

[Bigun]

I'm working on my 74th orbit, have high blood pressure and slightly overweight.  Never wear a mask except for routine checkups at my Dr's office.  No vaccines at all and there will be none.  Routinely take D3 and vitamin C.

The wife and I both got colds recently but, out of an abundance of caution, treated them as if it were COVID (Horse paste, zinc, and an over-the-counter fever reducer.)  Gone in three days. Your mileage may vary.

I've not gotten any of the vaccines. I am 65, have 3 heart stents, cysts on my spinal cord and some other chronic health issues. My thinking is why would I want to risk lowering my immune system by getting a vaccine that hasn't proven to prevent COVID or it's transmission?  I believe I had COVID before COVID was actually widely known.  For about a month or more I was just exhausted and really weak, had heart palpitations, a slightly elevated temperature off and on and could tell my body was fighting something. I drank hot ginger/peppermint tea every day, and increased my intake of C and D. Things I normally do when I feel like I might be getting the flu.

I've always taken a probiotic, multi-vitamin with zinc orotate, quercetin, aloe vera and Prelief (acid issues). I have on hand a higher dose of Vit. C., D3 and high dose of zinc picolotate if I become symptomatic.  We have on hand ivermectin for Geronimo, I'm sure the dosage is minimal but we still have it available.

Now that COVID is known, I have an oxymeter, thermometer (of course) and a blood pressure cuff just to check our vitals.

So far so good.  I know some will say I should be vaccinated, but, I just can't bring myself to do it.

I wear a mask to the docs and in the supermarkets where it is more crowded.  Other than that, no mask. I carry hand sanitizer and use it like crazy and make sure I never touch my face until I can get home and wash my hands with soap and water.

We have those.  I call it our "old folks kit."

I'm of the opinion that, for you and I, the risk of the vaccine itself is FAR greater than the risk of COVID. I'm not going to play.

I found an online converter and converted it to a jpg, as attached.

@Bigun

Aren't you able to right-click and simply save it as a jpeg or jpg?

[Restored]

Or right-click, Copy Image, open MS Paint, Paste, Save as JPG

Try this.

The default file format from that server is the ".webp" format, which is apparently a new Google-based file format for images.  It has to be converted, one way or the other, into a ".jpeg" file.

The reason I asked is that I've saved other pics before that were not rooted as JPEGS or JPS and just saved it as such.  I always check to be sure it can be opened before leaving.

'jpg' still works.  In your URL, change 'webp' to 'jpg'.

Cool!  Thanks!

A little "blast" from the past:

[Bigun]

The default file format from that server is the ".webp" format, which is apparently a new Google-based file format for images.  It has to be converted, one way or the other, into a ".jpeg" file.

Which likely explains why Chrome will not allow me to save it as a jpeg.

@DCPatriot @Hoodat @Kamaji

Edit to add: Check that, Edge won't let me save it as a jpeg either.

[Hoodat]

Why are you using Chrome?  Use Brave instead.  It is Chrome-based, except it cuts out all the evil Google crap.

Even with Chrome, it should work.  Open webp link again:  https://img.ifunny.co/images/ec5aa0bf8f5180d73390c4fbff5ece140cd0e433b5f394a07115956718382b6a_1.webp

Right-click, and select 'Save Image As'.  Where it says 'Save as Type', you will see 'WEPB file'.  Use the dropdown and select 'All Files'.  Then go back to the 'Filename' field and add '.jpg' to the end.  It will save it as a jpg file.

Thanks @Hoodat problem solved!

I use Chrome because the Church I belong to uses google apps for everything and it just makes my life simpler.

[Hoodat]

It is a Windows issue.  You can always change suffix names while saving files.  The important thing is that the site recognizes .jpg and converts it automatically if calling it from the host.
