There are many vaccines that can't make you (as one person) 100% immune. But if enough people is let's say 95% immune is almost the same.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

You're in your bubble, maybe underground, and because "it" hasn't touched you, "it just isn't bad".
Then you spin off about getting vaccinated and ask if "that's ok?"
May the farce be with you.

No it proves that a lot of people are of a mind that its all about them. That everything and everyone are there but to serve their needs and above all that they somehow deserve it.

There was an article I read, yesterday, basically ripping a new one for those who just had to have gatherings for Thanksgiving (and for that matter, the giant party goers, &etc.). It's content is most definitely in violation of the Lounge policy - I wouldn't pretend otherwise.
Pretty much, but in many more words, it is in agreement with your post.

The few things we've learned so far :
Our healthcare system was not prepared for that; for decades we focused on different kind of illnesses (I assume mostly cancer and other non or low infectious diseases)
Our dependence on 3rd party (countries) for our chain of supply for critical products (PPE, apparatus, vaccines, medications...)
The Old Folks Residences are way too easily infected, and because of close care needs, it is hard to keep them infection free, especially for people who need close physical contact for cares.
No one and everyone is to blame.
I'd rather be phishing!

I'll stop here lest I make this soapbox fodder.

Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

What are you hoping that a bunch of software developers, scattered around the world in different countries, will do based on your post?

In case you've been spending all your time gaming.
I hope it helps someone realize there is a problem. Just like the misconceptions about "rags" or a proper N95 mask.
What's your point?

Do you think it would be an unfair criticism of your posts to say that you seem to be looking for some sort of argument and you are provoking people into an argument?
As others have mentioned I think posts I have seen from you are really more soapbox material than lounge material.

I heard they the undead eat moenster cheese and carrion horribly if they don't get it.
Which brings up a question I've had burning in my mind for several seconds, already:
Is mozzarella a Passover umbrella ?

I just got an issue report for my Midi Library (at github bit it's also here)
It contained the problem, clear steps to reproduce the problem and was very specific.
It was also in chinese.
Google translated it to near perfect English. I had no trouble understanding any of it. It could have been written by an English speaker. Holy socks batman!

It's pretty damn good these days - getting to the point where you don't need to learn another language at all!

A user sent me this error message, from a language which I can't even recognize, for my article - DICOM Image Viewer[^], and Google Translation could enable me to pinpoint the error.
|
|
|
|
|
|
What I meant was that Google Translate auto-detected the language.
|
|
|
|
|
I know, it can recognise most languages in their native scripts, even telling the difference between Arabic, Persian and Urdu.
|
|
|
|
|
Wow. Then it should also be able to differentiate between Sanskrit, Hindi and Marathi, which use the same script (Devanagari script).

It works the same way it can tell English, Spanish, and German apart even though we all use the same alphabet. Only one language has all the input words being in the dictionary.
