They aren't testing. I have 3 friends bedridden right now with COVID19 symptoms in Stockholm, all of which were denied a test after they asked for one. They were told to stay home and get over it. Their numbers aren't reflective o

Judging an outdated format (DSLR) with an outdated website perhaps isn't the best way to go about it. Instagram would be a better data set.

"Obama carried out the duties of being President" - yes he did, one of those duties is killing people. You'd have to go out of your way, almost to the point of ignoring and not acting on threats, to not kill anyone as POTUS.

They'll spin the eventual deaths as inevitable and brag about how it wasn't 2x worse. Watch them.

> This "everyone is bad" is really off-the-mark. It's the worst take because it defeats the ability to find a solution in the future, if nothing can be trusted nothing can be implemented.

Fox News is the only organization that continue to let their opinion anchors downplay and politicize the virus well after it was clear it was deadly and inevitable.

Trump is a lunatic, literally. Obama was a smart, measured person people didn't like. There's a difference.

Why would you assume they want to? Opinion shows are the only thing watched on Fox News, they are the primetime lineup. Everything else is filler.

I've noticed this in the EU/US divide. Anything pessimistic in Europe is deemed smart and cool, and Americans are looked upon as native as dumb for their general optimism. Then again Europeans also hate how much "moaning"

I prefer the newer keyboard, but otherwise I agree. My 2014 11'' with 16GB RAM performs better than a 2018 MBP.

No we were not. The host knew we were mad at the state of her house, any review made on our part would trigger her retaliation (as she would assume correctly it wouldn't be positive).

Yes. I had a nightmare Airbnb over new years (had to leave because my health was deteriorating) but couldn't leave a bad review because of course i'd get one back in retaliation.
