Is there literally any example of a slippery slope argument being true. It's the most pointlessly dumb kind of fallacious argument

It's not even so much that mandatory vaccination is a slippery slope, as such, it's that the very act of mandating medical procedures in itself comes with a lot of baggage. As twisto says there is a precedent for it, but that doesn't make it a self-evident good. Here's one good recent article that highlights some of the complexities and considerations surrounding this sort of stuff, concentrating on hesitancy in BAME populations https://www.historyandpolicy.org/policy-papers/papers/vaccine-hesitancy-and-bame-populations

Jedit posted:That's not how 2FA works these days. Instead of a security question they send a token containing a code to an app. The app tells you it's received a token, and asks if you requested it. If you did you enter the code into the site and proceed; if you didn't you don't, and you are warned of an attempted intrusion. The company itself doesn't get any info that you haven't probably given them already when you created your account. That's not how TOTP works (which is the standard Twitch uses for their two-factor authentication, supported by most authenticator apps): The app and the site have a shared secret (a text string) they both know, out of which a number is generated based on the current time. There's no communication between the app and the site, it's all time based. But also, I'm pretty sure you need to give your phone number to Twitch to enable 2FA. But not wanting to give Twitch "your information" when you order on Amazon is silly.

Cheers. So is that largely the age thing? Not doing kids, unusual for us I know, that has caused us to slow down? Lol we're only just above brazil.

Colleague who wouldn't get his cats spayed as he didn't want to "deny them the experience of pregnancy" and who also loves crypto due to it being a "great investment" because he's smarter than others, today in our one to one announced he hadn't got his vaccine yet. Why? Because you see his partner and him want kids and "there are no long term 20 plus year studies on the effect of the vaccine on unborn children" loving hell where do you start? Thankfully we're 100 percent remote now.

See that's the reason he's giving you, but the real reason is he is actually hoarding all his cum in a jar in the hopes of selling it for millions when all the 5g chips activate and turn everyone sterile. Definitely think the best approach with that one is to just feed him increasingly crazy ideas until he becomes utterly repellant to everyone, then he can't have any children and you have achieved harm prevention.
