Dakha posted:(Edit: this was addressed to XMNN) I’m not sure that covid to zero minimises lockdown harm though, quite the opposite? Just as an FYI on the Israel thing: most of the (Israeli) population is vaccinated iirc, and vaccines are now open to anyone over 16 who wants one - all the vulnerable people have basically already had it, and they've still not fully reopened yet. If that's the example you want to follow, we're going to be in lockdown for a while yet. In fact last I checked Israel is basically still under full lockdown.

I had to travel to Salem so I tied a fennel to my belt, as was the style at the time.

I've made a really tasty chicken thigh tray bake with fennel before, can't find the exact recipe but something like this should do, and calls for two bulbs https://www.readersdigest.co.uk/food-drink/recipes/chicken-lemon-and-fennel-traybake-recipe

Oh, yeah I’m definitely in favour of lockdown for a bit longer, a few more vulnerable categories to vaccinate yet. I’m imagining spring/summer here.

Unsurprisingly in the article none of the scientists are actually calling for a debate, just saying there will be one (which is still a stupid thing to say). I was keen to get angry at the SPI-M and looked up the list of members, turns out someone I studied epidemiology with is on it, which makes me feel old and a bit underachieving.

Guavanaut posted:Prevent witchcraft apparently. Might come in useful. The logic here (you should hang up herbs for magical reasons to stop other people using herbs for magical reasons) reminds me of a friend of mine's MSN username from about 2005. BOMBING FOR PEACE IS LIKE loving FOR VIRGINITY. My point is, MSN should be brought back and so should witchcraft.

Dakha posted:The other trouble with covid to zero is that closing the borders is much harder for the UK than Australia or NZ. Closing the borders is no harder for the UK than anyone else, that's British exceptionalism rearing its ugly head again. Compare the UK to countries like Vietnam and Japan to see how badly we've really done.

The Perfect Element posted:The Facebook VR headset sounds creepy as gently caress - it demands your accurate personal details, and they'll brick your device if you use false ones, and it also maps and remembers every room you use it in, including the contents of that room. Yeah, no. You can still use an Oculus account for now, or you can use a burner Facebook account if you fancy. If you close that account then you also lose any apps you bought for that account, but that's how all online accounts work. They definitely don't brick your device. The room thing also isn't true. It uses 3D cameras to track the layout of the room, because it doesn't use external sensors placed around the room like other headsets, so if you have space to move about then you can draw a boundary around yourself and jump about to your heart's content without worrying about bashing into a wall. It generally remembers the last room you were in until you change the playspace, at which point it forgets and you have to set everything again. The 3D camera output is ultra grainy black and white VHS quality and occasionally fails to register where the floor even is until you put down a controller to calibrate it, so I'm not sure what useful data they could even get out of it. Facebook is bad, but they aren't quite at that level yet.

The real problem with closing the airports now is that it keeps all of the virus in this country, rather than allowing some to leave.

Small pre-weekend treat for those of you who like the pod. It really was a terrible, dragging episode but at least this bit redeemed it for the recording crew. We've never put the thing out because it sucked so hard, but please enjoy this cut. https://twitter.com/PraxisCast/status/1360254612591230984?s=20 Also Jesus Christ I had so many shownotes.

Speedrunning the 80/90s mashup (farce remix) with kieth statesman really seems like the best thing that can happen to labour at the moment. They might have someone with at lease* one policy and/or opinion by 2024. It'll be a poo poo one, but we can work from there. e: *gently caress it I'm leaving that autocorrect, because they'll have one but not actually own it Guavanaut fucked around with this message at 17:58 on Feb 12, 2021 |
