But I always thought that bleach contains solution of hydrogen chloride (hydrochloric acid). The pamphlet I got in mail says specificaly chlorine, not "compound of chlorine".

Cheching the wiki tells me I was mistaken and bleach usualy contains a hypochloride. Still not pure chlorine.
Pure chlorine is a gas. Normally people use chlorine to refer to chlorine compounds.

That's definitely an opinion that one could hold.

That's the part you noticed? I also implied the disease was made of ravens, and said chlorine worked based on fear. Look, if I'm going to admit in one of my posts that the post is a joke, you're going to have to do a lot better than this to pick it apart.

That Miracle Mineral Solution btw is Sodium Chlorite. It's very healthy and nothing like the bleach/pool cleaner, which is Sodium Hypochlorite.

BTW the reason they call Sodium Hypochlorite "chlorine" is that the active property is that it releases chlorine. The rest is there as the stabilizer, delivery mechanism.

Um?

Also the MMS-panacea peddlers tend to sell it along with or instruct users to mix it with citric acid, forming chlorine dioxide. Which is, like, an excellent full-body cleanse/purge!

I was replying to Mephisto.
It was most likely talking about bleach. You can get chlorine-free bleach but most of it is probably chlorinated.

It's too early in the morning to hate my fellow humans but here we go. There is a claim that drinking bleach cures the virus and I'm betting at least a handful of people believe that.
Or are you also replying to somebody else, Iduno?

Ah, it makes more sense if you were replying to someone else.

Also, Microsoft got tired of people complaining that SharePoint was the worst possible way to deal with coworkers that didn't involve talking to the coworkers in person, so the invented Microsoft Teams to prove them wrong.

That sounds like less fun than a chloride enema.

Same. Also Skype so they know when we're at our desk. Because even field workers obviously aren't doing anything if they aren't at their desk.

Or were you talking about chlorine dioxide?

Work chat time?

We also use Skype. Not Skype for Business. Just a collection of disconnected Skype accounts, some personal, some created just for the company. Because it's free.

We're looking at something not quite so shit but still free. We've settled on self-hosting rocket.chat, which seems like a bit of a mistake thus far.

It's the For Business version that archives all of the chats to use against you in the future. Runs like shit, though. It used up so much memory that my previous computer was taking 10+ minutes to log in every morning. Down to like 2-3 now.
