I have both a blind friend and a deaf aunt. You have to get creative sometimes to make those relationships work for everyone, but anyone who thinks their experience isn't diminished is fooling themselves. A person who is both blind and deaf is going to have very limited opportunities to make connections with people. It would be worse if we could only see each other online.

It's minimally social. A few lines of text is no substitute for sharing the five senses with other human beings. In person, you can dance, drink, kiss, laugh, eat, talk, etc. Body language, tone, touch, even smell, are all forms of nonverbal communication that enriches the human experience in ways that you can't even describe if you don't experience it for yourself. Social media is being social, but distilled to its absolute weakest form.

Ohms law says they can't. Your skin is about 100,000 ohms. 12.8 / 100,000 = 0.000128 or 0.128 mA.

Nuke it from orbit. It's the only way to be sure.

I thought it broke down chemicals like water into it's constituent elements of hydrogen and oxygen.

The first coat absorbs into the primer, so you lose a little. The second coat spreads thinner, plus you don't need a since you're already about 95% covered.
You'll be surprised how much of an improvement it will make.

My painter friend says all paints require 2 coats, regardless what it says on the can.

Reply to LPT: try not to be toxic or rude to anyone in online games or forums this week. As there are alot of people who have no family and want to distract themselves from this. Instead be kind and thoughtful. (This goes all year around aswell) by -TNY-
The kinds of people who are rude in online games are not the kinds of people who give a shit about this.

Using social media, even video, to maintain relationships is like playing piano with mittens on. You can sorta make it work, but in person is so much richer. Like anything else, humans are capable of getting by with less if they have to.
