Or any other company who thinks their bottom line is worth killing someone's grandparents. I'm not sure how SA became one of the only places on the internet taking this poo poo seriously but I'm glad for it.

boar guy posted:do they use bluetooth now? or wifi? or local-area radio transmissions? It’s over fm station. Here in Los Angeles it’s hard to find a clean fm area but surprisingly it was very clean. There was no distractions as far as car lights on or anything like that. We had the car in front with its hatch back open and backed into the space so they could have more leg room and it didn’t block our view one bit. I’d like to do it again for sure.

The best part of that flip floppery is that by trying to appease to all the anti mask vocal shitheads, they pissed off everyone. Then in the second round they pissed off people who would go to a theater to not have to wear a mask. And let's be honest, that's who would show up to see a movie in a PANDEMIC anyway. Way to go numbnuts

Way to go numbnuts I'm noticing a theme with a poo poo ton of hosed up issues today that when presented with two choices, neither excellent by any means, both choices are picked. The best example is the lock downs. Lock em down and save millions but the demon known as 'number' go down OR leave it all open and let millions die to appease the evil algorithm. why-not-both.gif

i mean i'm no pope or anything but i think when you boil down to life or death (as is the case now, scientifically not objectively) and you choose anything except life you're kinda broken. doesn't matter if we're talking about your life or someone else, that's all "but..." semantics like poo poo, come at me with a sacrifice some to save many at least, something other then "i wanna watch moooooviiiiieeees"..these people are adult children

I have always been a sappy chump, the kind who tears up at a well made sentimental commercial. Yesterday I walked through the AIDS memorial garden in Golden Gate Park, in San Francisco. My tears flowed freely there, (my mask got quite wet) because it is a beautiful place that nevertheless imparts the grief of loss at that magnitude. It made me wonder if we should start finding sites for permanent COVID memorials. I was trying to imagine an appropriate location in my city (golf course seems best to me, we have a surplus of those) but I settled on a concept instead. Names engraved on a strip of pavement at six foot intervals. In the US, assuming that when the final counts are made, we might be lucky to have under 300,000 Covid-19 deaths, this memorial would stretch 340 miles, about the distance from San Francisco to LA. I know that building such a memorial would be impractical, but it would also set the scale for this magnitude of loss of life. Yes, I definitely want a milkshake, thanks.

BIG TIT LIL NIP posted:this was basically my reasoning behind bailing. i am fortunate enough to have unemployment though, who knows how long that will last. t high-five to all other goons who quit/are considering quitting. My whole family came to the decision that I won't go back to my office. I also have to sit in a tiny office with no windows and having a distance of 60 cm with my co-worker. I'm gonna try to convince my boss to allow me to keep doing home office, if not, I'm quitting. We came to the conclusion that even if we have the privilege of a safety net if any of us gets sick we will definitely be pushed to poverty. It's not worth risking my life, or my mother's or my sister or nephew for a few loving pesos. (It would be more expensive and traumatic paying for the expenses of getting sick and a funeral. I don't want anyone I know go through that).

It showed up on my android phone, but it's not on because you need some app. It doesn't say what app, just "a participating app" with no indication of how to find one.

When you click on it the explanation is that you need to have a tracing app to enable it.
