Still fresh, damnit!
You may say that, but frankly, if the risk to myself of going to the pub is worse than a hangover, I won't be going.

Are you sure it's not just Peony doing the washing?
Ok, might be because there are more people testing themselves because they want to go on holidays?
That IS strange, it should be at it's lowest, just before the heat comes and you get more deaths due to heat (mostly people of old age).
Although we had a fairly hot week 2 weeks ago here in NL, so it might be that that's the case too in UK?
The risk is calculated, and most are bad at math. But look at the other side too: Humans are social beings. Going to the pub is good for mental health.

Yes. I prefer to be self-sufficient so I do the washing.
This is probably it. My fully vaccinated neighbors contracted asymptomatically and were only tested because they traveled. This supports my feelings that further restrictions are innappropriate.

Why exactly do you keep posting slashdot articles here? Nostalgia?

What is the purpose of your question ?
Ouch, Linus has no knowledge outside of Kernels and Linux?Linus Torvalds Tells Anti-Vaxxer To Shut Up On Linux Mailing List - Slashdot
Linus Torvalds was "clearly unamused" by a "humanoid conspiracy theory, and also on its discussion in a Linux kernel topic thread," reports Neowin. They add that Torvalds "weighed in quite heavily with some very strong language, mixed with some biology lessons..." Here's an excerpt from...science.slashdot.org
First of all, there is this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epigenetics
And then: He thinks of Experimental Kernel things in PROD environments just like he thinks of EXPERIMENTAL mRNA... he just applies the patches. However https://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/howto-yum-downgrade-packages-on-rhel-centos-fedora-scientific-linux/
We can roll back Kernels, you can not rollback your blood clot producing cells.
Dangerous when flying in a plane ( he's an old article saying that statement is true; here's one that says it is not true - who to believe? CDC now says it's a moderate risk basically, up in the air, there's no ambulance to take you to the hospital if you collapse). See how that third statement is actually middleground? Linus does not go for the middleground, which is ok for kernel based decisions, but not for things outside his field.
Then, there's weasel words:
"...they do *not* need to have any of the other genetic..."
Oh, but they have... J&J is mass produced by stemcells (called iPS or 'induced pluripotent stem cells'), and during the purification process, well, let's say there are trace amounts of these or your yield is lower.
AND there's adjuvants and vector and so on... like a TCP/IP encapsulation. But.. are you sure the CRISPR sequence is that and only that? And that NONE mutated producing some other thing than spikes? It shouldn't, but it could... just like a PC does not come out of POST every time (There's no guarantee, although it most often does)
Then, there's:
"and you need to start protecting your family and the people around you."
For me, that means you first need to get informed. Then take a step back. And for me, the answer was not "Oh, look 99% survival rate; let's take part in this experiment and go for an additional 7% chance of permanent damage". All around me they hold tightly to their jar of dirt.
I DO think the Kernel Mailing list is NOT the place to talk about vacc's.
Poor shops, it's now the moment to make some money to pay for the rent of their buildings, to have some cash to stock up for xmas. Thanks for shopping there.

the kernel mailing list isn't the place to question the established vaccine science, but the pyra forums are?
mRNA vaccines have a lot of promise, and i'm excited about their future. (and also how they've helped with Covid.)

I wonder how it is that a location can become more valuable and thus raise rents for business space there, but can not become less valuable due to Covid.
Well, there was this USA scandal that Antifa & maybe BLM was hired to hold manifestations/looting just on the streets that had high value, so to spiral it downwards by scaring customers, destroying the businesses and then buy the location up for cheap from the struggling owners.
For that second part I can only talk about Amsterdam. Here when you sell your house, you re-evaluate it . Houses that are not re-evaluated are extrapolated by the neighboring houses. The city then asks more taxmoney for having that more expensive house. The only plus is that this allows for a second mortgage. And a higher price for your house.

FiveThirtyEight's Nate Silver says we're going to miss President Biden's goal of having 70% of adults vaccinated by July 4th. That said, he also says a Gallup poll said 76% of adults either plan to get vaccinated or already have done so, so we'll get there eventually.
Yes, kept in their own thread in a separate "Off topic" compartment. With tools like "ignore thread". What's the problem? Now take a mailing list... Sure, you make a few email aliases, subscribe to different lists with these different addresses (linux-kernel, linux-net, netdev, etc). Then let the mailclient thread. Then... in my case, never look at it again...
