I gonna say no to that. Apple has relatively weak security compared to Google. First off, you have a relatively crude bio-metric authentication that it simple to hack --a grade 6 Inspector Gadget finger print kit, a $125 3D printer and some Play Doh and I'm in -- to your phone, your bank, your home automation... Your fingerprints are everywhere, and for many of us our finger prints are also in massive databases accessible by countless people.
Apple has had some pretty big security breaches in the past. Ask Jennifer Lawrence. Apple also opened iCloud servers to PRISM, the part of the NSA intelligence gathering program. The other big cloud providers IBM, Amazon or Google vigorously refuse to do this.

Hopefully it doesn't get quarantined.

Then why does the FBI keep asking Apple to help with encrypted iPhones??

Unfortunately there is no cure for the "stupid" virus. Even death can't wipe it out, and has existed since the beginning of time...

You couldn't pay me enough to take a cruise on one of those things.
Petri dish issue aside, I bloody love RCI ships. Their food, service, nightly entertainment, 10/10.
Highly recommend their european cruises if you have never been over the pond before.
See 5-7 cities in just over a week, and discover which areas you'd love to go back on a slower pace.
Will never forget my 2 cruises there.. disembarked a stop early both times, (Venice, Naples) took a high speed train to Florence.
Grabbed 2 wheeled rentals and exploring Tuscany/Midevil towns... cannot recommend it enough.
I'm at sea right now on a cruise.
Everyone having a wonderful time. 27 degrees and sunny on our balcony at the moment. Popping on and offline between naps.
So far the only Corona related issues is the empty bottle sitting beside me until someone gets me a new cold one.
Don't let the fear of what could happen make nothing happen. If everyone lived in that fear none of us would ride motorcycles either.

Joining me for my next skydive then?
Im thinking Patagonia.
Cruises aren't my bag, too much to see to be stuck..at sea..
A cruise is like a resort that takes you to other cool resorts in other cool areas.
It’s a common misconception they’re boring. I’d go insane sitting on a beach all day on a resort. It’s impossible to be bored on a ship unless you want to be. And I’ve seen all sorts of cool places and countries I’d otherwise have never seen. All while eating like a king.
As for skydiving, yeah, I have a personal preference for not jumping out of perfectly functional aircraft. I’ll fly the plane for you and wave bye though. ?

I swear the racism only happens to meek looking men or women. I grew up with a ton of it actually as the school I went to was white dominant.
I had the flu last week (maybe it was corona? who knows lol), was coughing a lot on the subway, and I was waiting for any racist mother fucker to piss me off so I could knock them the **** out (I was also having a very bad week.)
....but nobody seems to want to pick a fight with a ****** off looking jacked Asian...but for ****'s sake, I'm short as **** at 5'6!

Nothing to do with bugs....a lot to do with “hell is other people”. I like my vacations private, do everything to my schedule, private pool, empty beaches etc. I happily pay a premium for that but I often don’t have to with a bit of planning and some help from AirBnB and rental car agencies.
Yeah exactly, resorts aren't my idea of vacation.
Although for the honeymoon later this year we are doing a short 6 day luxury catamaran cruise to the Galapagos. It's next day island hoping though, works for me! 4 day Amazon rain forest stay on top of a few days in Quito.
As for missing out on the sky diving, don't let your fear drive you! I'll pack an extra chute for you just in case.
Where do you jump?
I don't haha. I've only jumped the one time (in Africa).
Been waffling on going for my certification, perhaps next year.
Lately I've combined the best of cruising and having something to do while the ship is moving from place to place. Did this one a few years back and it was great. Danube Waltz by BIKE + PREMIUM-BOAT Passau-Budapest
