  • I find it fascinating how prude other people are from what is the level of "normal" in my social circle.

    As if I don't proudly rock that Subverse and Aurelia on my Steam Library! 💗

  • Why is every news outlet a propaganda organ, but your own eyes aren't?

  • Why would anybody bad them, >50% in the US just voted to expand them massively and apply them ~everything. Oh and that money for the masses sucks versus money for grifters only, so I for one welcome Freedom Coin 2025 which rugpulls about 2 weeks after introduction.

  • Get the NRA (the New Resistance Augmentation) into supporting immunition imports!

  • And then there's my ex who after COVID took nearly 9 months (!) to get normal use of their lung again. Fuck people who go all "COVID is bullshit".

  • Hrm, the full ERs were easy to find though, news were coming up multiple times a day which hospital is rejecting patients and of doctors and nurses collapsing from 40-80 hours continuous work.

    Mass graves... trickier. We tend to not want to be faced with mass deaths in general, which is why we tend to not glorify this as much as we do personal death. They were in the news though, and of course travel to any poorer country and they were/are easy to find.

  • Ugh, that's rough.

    That being said, like you said, people die. I can't imagine how shitty it feels but given how the COVID vaccine is the most-empirically-tested-and-documented vaccine and as a result of it's absolutely insane number uses uses (beaten only by the likes of Aspirin and Ibuprofene and so on), it's hopefully understandable that we not only know but know with beyond-certainty that it's side effects are insanely rare and extremely mild.

    The reason people can extremely rarely die from a vaccination (and then it happens ~directly after getting it!) is a reaction to the actual injection, not what you get injected with. This has happened in the past, it's just extremely improbably. There's also the chance of an allergic reaction but for most healthy adults we would know about this as COVID would be far from our first vaccine we're getting, and with multiple billions of uses, we know that the COVID vaccine as a whole has no allergic interactions beyond standard ones.

    That's not to downplay your loss, sorry if it sounds that way - english is not my primary language. Not at all. Just trying to illustrate how impossible it'd be for COVID to have a lethal effect without millions~tens-of-millions showing this, simply because we have such an amount of data points.

    That is to say, someobody could get a vaccine shot, then go home, and fry themselves an egg in a new pan they bought on the way home. There is a multiple orders of magnitude higher chance of poisoning from the pan because of an undocumented chemical in the coating than from the shot. We don't have that much data on any particular pan, not even IKEA ones. Orders of magnitude less data.

  • But he don't care, because:

    • It mostly kills poor people
    • He is vaccinated
    • His kids are vaccinated
    • He couldn't give any less fucks about people if you paid him for it. And he is being paid to not give a fuck about people's lives.
  • Ist it just Google or Bing user selectable?

  • So after constantly yelling at Mozilla for 10+ years they should do all kinds of things like a VPN, now we no longer find them to experiment to find alternative money sources?

  • So far we don't know this'll be tailored for solo, either.

  • Because From. That's the kings of nonsensical stuff like that.

  • Yeah I thought the same, of course this all costs performance.

  • I mean she seems semi-retired, so I was expecting her not to return tbh.

  • Except they seemingly come without the right blinker, but BMW drivers only ever need the left one anyways, and it might as well be stuck in "on".

  • Are *buntu flavors risky for my workstation? Should I be considering Fedora?

    Why would they be risky? O.o They're the preferred workstation setup at my place because Ubuntu is spread enough that it can be relied upon to be the distro admins have the most experience with (which is a self-perpetuating thing, I am aware).
