Only if they will save more lives by being vaccinated than if the 70 year old was. We should be focusing on people who are higher risk of being transmission vectors, such as grocery store employees etc, at the same time as vaccinating the w

Hmmm. I think somebody is following this thread because I got testies using ff on linux by clicking the bitly links above.

As far as I recall from reading about this a few years back, it's really mainly this one judge who is perpetuating this bs, although perhaps he has managed to attract a following of judges there. Just search for "Judge Robert Schr

There are brokers of .eu domains that allow you to get a .eu address for the purpose. Of course it's a service and subscription, but it's trivial for anyone to get a .eu domain.

I don't use a mac but hop on other people's from time to time. I see nothing special there compared to my ~250 dpi ubuntu laptop.

Yes. Any conversation like this can be expanded, because limits are only one tool among many that need to work together, and changes in each location need to be evaluated case by case - where divided roads / freeways would be the prima

This is part of my problem with speed cameras everywhere. I respect the idea, but speed limits many places are too low given that roads and vehicles have improved significantly and they have not changed much to keep up. I would be all for m

Most users probably don't trust them much at all, but trust them just enough for the very minimal uses they might need them for. I would not use a consumer vpn if my life or liberty depended on it.

Their google search spellchecker is good, but it's ironic that their android / keyboard spell checker is quite literally the worst I have ever used. Years in and it's maybe 5% as accurate as aspell.

Who is promoting this "new line of reasoning"? I don't hear that at all. OP here was simply stating that the vaccine is not 100% effective, a completely different point than the one you threw out as a response.

Anyone with a job that requires them to talk to people with unknown numbers calling. There is one bias right there. Probably people who don't get that many cold calls outside elections, which must fit some sort of demographic as well.

I've always wondered if there shouldn't be a VSCode or other plugin that allows you to automatically throw in a bunch of printfs up a dependency chain to dump vars etc, and remove them just as easily.

I think FFs loss of market share of course has been affected by advertising, but mainly by their own mistakes. I don't think the similarities to Chrome (which were not really so great for a long time) were the main driver. I tried to h

I sometimes need to make basic safety recommendations at work. I include the phrase "small children or animals" where appropriate for exactly that reason. I see people gasp when I get to the animals part all too often.

If you have a service that does not require an app, but the app is an additional convenience for your customers, why should Apple be entitled to 30% of everything? That is an extremely common scenario.

Using String as a ProgType(tm)? That's a paddlin'. We use CharGroup around here, which we are willing to license for a small fee. For a limited time, get 10% off when you license three or more ProgTypes(tm)! Indemnification licens

If you want to artificially limit the conversation to only one aspect, you are right -- everything else is beside the point. But I for one would expand to say that this type of destruction should be illegal. We should not be mass destroying
