The communication to the public wasn't honest enough. My parents are very much by the book. They follow instructions. They were very surprised to get Covid 3 times after following their vaccination and booster schedule.

It wasn't made clear enough to the public that these shots were not sterilizing vaccines.

There are benefits and costs associated with fast tracking drugs to treat a pandemic.

That should be the debates starting point.

Yup. We're going back to time sharing for the majority of people. The terminal will be their dumb phone.

We're cooked. The young kids I teach are unfortunately completely accustomed to go guardian spying on them at school. The admin constantly reinforce the need to dissect the internet, treat Chromebooks as media consumption devices, not computers. I hear it will be even worse here next year. Not sure how.

These people are obsessed with risk mitigation that it's not even worth having tech class anymore. No risk. 100% control all the time.

Deeply pessimistic. I'm of the view that the powerful are extracting less and less capital from the average person. It doesn't seem worth it to them.

So housing and now cars are marketed to the rich and wealthy, we're losing things we took for granted.

Anonymity is basically dead on the internet. Worse being they don't just want my ID to participate but scans of my face, God knows who they are selling this data too.

We have less and less agency over anything. In the U.S both political parties are essentially the same. If you are an outsider like Massie, Planter or Omar they will successfully destroy your ability to represent the public. The game is rigged.

The bad times will continue and worsen until a cataclysmic global event resets the system. We'll see.

The older I get the more volunteer software projects I donate to. VLC being one of them.

Buying a new phone and transferring the apps over is a complete nightmare with login issues, unrecognized device, two factor authentication etc

Truly updates should be focused on fixing bugs, security and performance improvements NOT new features.

I'm still on 10. Basically don't care about the security risks. I will be forced to do something once new games won't work with 10.

"They're tax payers, many are highly educated," yes they have more purchasing power the day they arrive than I do after 4 generations.

That's not right and toxic for social cohesion. Your immigrant class should not be wealthier or have superior earning power to the native population. That's like a sociological time bomb.

The FBI is a good analogy for the political choices Americans have between Democrats and Republicans. They are completely non-ideological. It's just about power and control over the population. We need to get our rights back somehow.

I support this. The United States is too crowded. I don't want to compete with all these new people for housing. American citizens really need to begin advocating for themselves. For their material interests.
