Those are some harsh restrictions indeed, given that Ireland seems like a country where you live life to it's fullest, it's an almost unreal level of restrictions. As a comparison Denmark and Ireland have almost identical number o

One of the restrictions is ironically enough to close down gyms. Am still waiting for a reopening of gyms here in Denmark.

I think the accepted phrasing is one or two shots initially and the (yearly?) booster shots as long as you choose.

Indeed, some realism to the coronavirus aftermath has been lacking. If the vaccines do reduce hospitalizations and ultimately deaths, then we can live with it and can forget about vaccine passes and restrictions. Getting your optional and y

We all want to resume our normal lives, but introducing lockdowns as mentioned here in a european country would just not be acceptable. If the alternative is the imperfect half-lockdown then so be it. What matters now is a sharp focus on wh

I feel the opposite, productivity is poor or at best unpredictable when working from home. There is a strong truth in looking at what motivates you though, for me it is just as much the interaction with colleagues working towards a common g

Not an expert on QEMU, but apart from being a very useful tool, it also seems very complex. Perhaps not Linux-complex, but certainly close. So it's somewhat impressive that it has come so far when the Developer docs states: QEMU does

Certainly not, which begs the question: Should the vaccine be administered to all, it seems that no is the right answer at the moment.

I think it's not just Britain. Having hospitals with lots of empty beds, i.e. capacity, is just too costly. So when the capacity is needed as it is now, then you can't really do much.

I think future customers would like to know what kind of performance to expect, so a write-up sounds like a great idea. It sounds like a bad business decision to not support open discussion on performance, it makes me think that they have s

The lab theory is better suited for a movie, as no hard evidence has been presented. Oddly enough, it seems the virus will end up transmitting the Chinese control over its people to several western countries. At least where I live a quite s

The virus will mutate, that has already been proven, so we might think that we can control the mutation but in reality we can't. We can speculate all day long if the virus will change into something more lethal, but that is hardly bene

It is very hard to explain the Covid response, given that this is not the worst pandemic humanity has faced nor is it extremely deadly. The numbers for suicides in Japan should give pause to the increasing restrictions being applied everywh

As someone who was actually thinking about getting the M1 based on the great performance and battery life, but without any actual use for it, I can see what you mean. But the lack of openness is enough to stop those ideas, a new Surface lap

Since Taiwan is an island, it makes sense to control who visits it. A similar approach was tried in the Faroe Islands, but was not very successful. It is likely that people of Taiwan are more willing to give up their freedom than western co

Or acceptable in the free world, fact is that the virus has only successfully been contained in big brother countries and island states. The rest of the world can not (and should not) try to replicate the same behaviour.

A nice solution for those that can get by with text-only notes. For storing images I use Microsoft OneNote as more often than not, there is a need to document something with text and images. And search is excellent.
