Currently rocking Pandora, PiBoy DMG, GPD Win 2 (latest gen), OG 3DS and a Steam Deck Q3 512GB. Aside from size (it's HUGE) the deck knocks them all for six. Emulation Station-DE with EmuDeck is the dog's danglies. Handheld, large screen, GBA is beautiful as are all the other emulators. This...

Oh god no, definitely know where you're coming from. We dismiss them because of the amount of crap they spout.

Anti-vaxxers are taking themselves out anyway. Wally: I vote to close the thread, especially since most of the disinformation in here is coming from a literal child. Lock pls.

That is literally the Scientific Method, where you revise your opinion based on evidence. That's pro-science, my dude.

Well, you're describing me - I didn't vote for this govt, disagree largely with what the govt is doing (as any sane person would, given their handling of the pandemic) but I'm double jabbed and wear a mask in every appropriate indoor space so... Yeah, you got that wrong. I'd say that in my...

They do their research on facebook, and post what they're told to post. In the classic right-wing projection we've been seeing lately, they're the sheep that they are accusing everyone else of being. It's a disgrace, and they're a disgrace.

We're really not. It's just few idiots gathering together, maskless (during a pandemic with the delta variant surging in numbers) doing what their facebook conspiracy theory leaders tell them to, like the good little sheep they are. This is not representative of the British populace as a whole.

You don't need to handle them, just ignore. Their opinion is is as worthless as yours and mine and no policy or procedure will be affected by their talking about their beliefs on a forum dedicated to a minor Linux handheld. Be at peace.

Wearing a mask is going to be the new Shopping Trolley test, isn't it?

Herd immunity is going to be difficult to achieve. So far, our research seems to show (and could indeed be hearsay or outright wrong) that a COVID infection grants immunity for around 8 months, after which time you can catch it again. That gives us a roughly 8 month window during which everyone...

Again. The vaccine does not confer immunity. You can still catch COVID. The vaccine will drastically reduce the chances that you will die from a COVID infection. Masks do not prevent you from catching COVID. They prevent you from spreading it as easily should you be infected and unaware. You do...

Current evidence shows that the lambda variant is susceptible to the mRNA vaccines, so if you've had one of those you're probably gonna be Ok. As I said previously, the vaccine won't stop you getting the virus - that's not the point. The point is to stop you from needing to go to hospital. You...

The vaccine stops you ending up in hospital, it doesn't confer immunity. In the UK right now, Delta cases are doubling rapidly, but hospital admissions due to COVID remain at a pretty much constant low level. We're lifting all restrictions on the 19th July - which means that cases are going to...

I'm beginning to think you lot have never been around small children.

Vaccinating children makes perfect sense. We do not yet have concrete data on whether or not a vaccinated subject can pass COVID-19 on to others. Children are super-spreaders of pretty much everything they come into contact with. If the vaccine prevents spread then that's one massive vector...

Gold plated toilets were in vogue last year in the US, I heard.

Just been informed that my uncle has been released from the ICU, after three weeks on a ventilator. He has had COVID-19 for 4 weeks now and is still testing positive. He is slowly improving but all his major organs (lungs, kidneys, liver, heart) have suffered irreparable damage from the...
