More 100% mainstream media catching on to the fact that lockdowns failed to make a difference: https://apnews.com/article/public-health-health-florida-coronavirus-pandemic-ron-desantis-889df3826d4da96447b329f524c33047

Good interview on all the difficulties of actually shipping a safe vaccine on a tight deadline: http://enformtk.u-aizu.ac.jp/howard/gcep_dr_vanessa_schmidt_krueger/

@spencerdupre @michaelfolkson The Dakota's are interesting because North Dakota had more restrictions than South. The cases and deaths however were essentially the same.

The left are either trolls or fascists. Probably both.

@michaelfolkson I think Israel is having a nervous breakdown like everywhere else. There's tons of angst over the fact that the vaccines aren't working as well as expected. Also, they're moving quickly on forced vaccinations.

@mir_btc I always check with my bank before dating someone. Obviously.

@mir_btc Next time you should think before marrying the love of your life.

@cgarison There's a good chance those teens ran away from home and turned to prostitution to support themselves. There's even a good chance no pimps were involved at all, and they were lying about their age.

I used to know a forensic nurse who frequently worked with teens in exactly those circumstances. It's very, very, politically incorrect that there are no easy villains in most of these cases, and the best prevention would probably be funding anti-homelessness efforts.

Italy has opened a manslaughter investigation into the multiple recent deaths following AstraZeneca vaccinations, all from the same batch: https://www.quotidiano.net/cronaca/militare-augusta-morto-astrazeneca-1.6120602

Official suspects include the nurses that administered it. Which does seems a bit over-the-top - much more likely to be a problem with that batch.

@121 Their base is people who don't have any wealth. So destroying wealth is good for them. Same with the pandemic: the #1 victim of lockdown was small business, which tend republican.

@drgo Note that there are tons of low power x86 mini PCs with much faster NVME drives. RPi is just one lane.

@josh Nah, you completely misunderstood the movie.

Re-watch it, thinking carefully about who is actually telling you what. It's not a sci-fi movie. It's a movie about fraud. There are key scenes shown on screen that are being *told* by dishonest people; that doesn't mean those events actually happened as claimed.

Importantly, in real life, Tesla became a fraud later in life.
