If you can't admit the problems with the current vaccines then you are anti-science.

You obviously don't get my point.

I've had my $10,000 hospital visit and then my share of $10 vaccines. My parent had their $10 vaccines THEN their $10,000 hospital visit.

Why buy a vaccine when you can rent one instead?

I mean, keep telling yourself what you need to. There is nothing that says 99%. You are spreading fake info. You're not helping.

You can draw lots of conclusions from this data. But what you wrote is false. It makes them smug, and so much more.

While Joe Biden is on TV today saying "the only pandemic we have is among the unvaccinated", my parents are among those VACCINATED people going through a hard time right now after testing positive last week. (Completed Moderna vaccine set in May).

He and his "smug" staff are no better than Trump. The same for the rest of you assholes spreading this fake headline like your favorite team just won the super bowl.

Emergency Use Authorization for Vaccines Explained

Fair response. I would mod you up.

They lost credibility though, sorry. People online will say everything and anything for you to "get the jab". But they are causing just as much pain as solving. Then they blame people who don't get the vaccine for the variants... that's not science, that's politics. So mod down for social reasons, sure, but don't think you're curing people.

Here's the FDA's official stance about the vaccine:

So the FDA approves the vaccines as long as people are informed of it's risks, but when social media "cleanses" actual data, (anecdotal or scientific) it's a huge disservice. I'm not out here peddling alternatives, or ivermectin, but people should be able to.

Covid recently came through our town again recently. It's been effecting vaccinated family members as much as non-vaccinated individuals. With similar symptoms, anecdotally it's almost like Moderna didn't work at all. We only have TRIAL vaccines, so saying they don't work that well shouldn't be blasphemy. It's a money grab, it's so obvious. "Maybe a third booster shot for everyone will do it, Joe!"

I got covid, and it was as bad as I feared. And vaccinated family members are going through it at the moment. We need to hold politicians and the governments accountable for continuing this charade, and get to the bottom of where/who made this nasty thing, and how we can prevent this from happening again in the future.

I'm one dose of AstraZeneca short on my Covid-19 Vaccine Bingo card

These experts you are talking about regularly discount alternate scientific data that doesn't fit their narrative. With no counter-claims or additonal data, they try to clear the airwaves. Wise people will recognize this and try to decipher it.

I was super safe and followed all guidelines within reason last year. It wasn't worth it. I got covid anyways, have had serious health concerns for the last half year, now I've lost a year of my life. It's NOT the scientific community who are speaking right now. The actual scientists have things they want to say, but crazy public policy stops them.

Initial response was that masks don't help prevent covid. Considering my antedoctal experience, I'm inclined to believe that.

So go ahead and look into some of this "contraband" material on how ineffective these masks are. They fail. What they do do is change people's behavior, which is what they want. They are scared of the virus, but they can't just say that. But they should. Instead they come out as an authority.

Remember when the Biden people all said they would never take Trump's vaccine? It wasn't that long ago. What changed? They got in power. It's a game.

So instead of being a mouthpeice for the craziness, try empathizing with people who kinda know they aren't getting the full picture. They're not wrong to feel a little paranoid.

It's closer to a Military takeover. https://americanmilitarynews.c...

Those "insurgents" were nobodies. If you believe THAT was an actual insurgency you really are a dullard. 2 billion dollars to track down some grandmas and a couple morons with maga stickers on their trucks?

You think maybe those resources could be used to find child predators, but no, we gonna go find internet trolls, and people googling election audits, ivermectin, vitamins, and jeffrey epstein theories. Awesome. *Clap hands sarcastically*

So who is acting more "authoritarian"?

You bought into some things last year about Trump that weren't true. Fine. It was plastered everywhere, I think the guy's a dick too. But you seriously think he tried to take over the government? You seriously think he overreached on his powers? The guy left office willingly, after a false/lame attempt at garnering support for election audits across key states. After leaving he's been looking into starting his own media companies. Media. Let me say it again, MEDIA. If he were the dictator he was made out to be he would have taken (at least) one military branch with him and be performing insurgencies every week. Nope. The guy followed the law. He's not the boogie man, you can settle down, Jack.

Trump had a poo-poo personality. Biden actually thinks we are in a civil war, TODAY. I don't even know if what he says on camera from day to day is intentional, or a mistake. "It's not about who votes, it's about who counts the vote". Like, what? Then okay, so you're FOR voter id laws? Whatever Biden is doing I'm missing. I knew Trump was a jackass, but WTF Biden?

Sounds like "I can't argue, so instead I'll deflect."

I read the other day that Steven Crowder got 8.2 million views for his election night coverage. While CNN got 9.1 million. Fox got 13.6 million. MSNBC got 7.3 million. ABC/NBC/CBS got 12.1/9.1/7.3 respectively. I'm surprised those were so low. I'd be pissed if I were big media too.

I suspect right-wingers are less authoritarian than lefties these days. "Defunding police" is just a ruse for an authoritarian replacement (at the federal level).

We can fix local police.

To be fair, Apple would also allow apps to be installed from MORE trusted sources as well. An F-Droid for iOS would be amazing for the community.

There is going to be a lot of ways Apple will "water-down" this sideloading experience. I'm betting Apple will still have the power to remove malware apps from executing.

I agree with you. But cloud products are convenient to use, you have to give it to them. A lot of the home-grown stuff is archaic in comparison.

Cloud services are also convenient to develop. Most engineers don't have the opportunity to "do it all" in-house. It's an easy business trade-off to use a third-party service, or a pre-engineered SDK, even when that SDK sends PII and usage analytics about your users to Google, et. al.

The market actually thrives on identifying people. If you want to develop an actual competing pattern/platform, then focus on addresses the market concerns first --and then WRITE YOURSELF out of it. Build privacy/security/reliability into the system with the goal of making yourself obsolete. If you have to keep your hands all over it, it will fail, cause the super privacy-conscience folk will (rightly) never trust you.
