The only problem with this is you have to go stand in the sunlight to charge it.

These types of draconian laws will ruin the internet if they are ratified.

Itâ(TM)s easy to switch the search default in Firefox to whatever you want. I use duckduckgo, personally.

Reddit used to have principles that aligned with the open source model. Now they are removing mods that protested their API pricing. They have changed and that is how they are killing the goose that lays golden eggs. Everyone was cheering for them to succeed. Not anymore. The good will people had towards reddit is gone. They killed it.

It's going to cost $20mil a year to run Apollo with the current API pricing. It's not sustainable. Reddit is killing themselves like Digg did.

We can't even convince people to put on face masks to control the spread of COVID, and you expect us to convince them of not having babies / forcing themselves on women, pregnancy be damned ?

I guess since building a *safe* bridge is no trivial matter, if you need to delay, you will delay.

Because if your throat is cauterized, how would you drink the chloride?

Some countries already do this for other diseases. Off the top of my head: China, Brazil, Thailand... It also depends on where you're traveling from, so YMMV

As for requirements within one's country, some vaccination is thankfully mandatory for enrolling your kids in school in some countries. It is a given that an adult already has most vaccines, so it is not a specific requirement for employment or getting some services; maybe COVID19 vaccine will be, from now on.

Two long paragraphs describing the lovely English country setting, and barely a clue about what this "curse" could be.

I know someone who had covid-19 and then got better and then caught it again a week later. The antibodies don't do shit.

We have a couple thousand users wordlwide (Asia and the Americas).

Well, I don't do social media.....but I have been to Mexico more than a couple of times, and aside from the tourism sites, there ain't much else there that is worthwhile at all.

Dude, quit it with the Ignorant American stereotype. In XXI century America, and from an educated tech professional, it's getting old.

Oh. You're serious.

Mexico is a middle-class country, with its obvious slew of social/political/economical problems. It is the 15th largest in the world in nominal terms and the 11th largest by purchasing power parity, per the IMF. Surely you don't think your Chevys and Fords and Kias and Audis and now *gasp* BMWs, are built on donkey-powered production lines, by poncho-wearing peaseants, do you?

There's a nifty little tool called "Google". Or Duck Duck Go, even. Type "modern Mexico". Heck, you don't even have to read (again, the Ignorant Gringo stereotype), just go over the image search results.

There's more to Mexico than Tijuana, the crappy (face it) border cities and gringo-laden Cancún, you know.

And with some of the drug wars now spilling over into the tourist areas, I'm not anxious to ever go visit there again any time soon.

Good riddance, then.

When we get our army of AI soldiers, we'll remember who our friends were. (and weren't)

As long as it's not BAD FUCKING ROCKET, we'll be ok. =)
