Bugs: Recent Topics Paging, Uploading Images & Preview (11 Dec 2020)
Recent Topics paging, uploading images and preview bugs require a patch which has not yet been released.
Coronavirus
I read this somewhere and it made sense to me - given the way Covid was politicized, we'll hit the limit of simple good-sense vaccinations pretty soon (if we haven't already), at which point it's going to have to be carrot and stick. Enter a chance to win a brand new car if you get a shot. or sit in the corner with the other plague rats at your next football game if you don't.hotseatgames wrote: I of course am hoping to win a million dollars just for being sensible, but I really think they went overboard with this. I'll bet you could encourage more vaccinations with as little as $1000 and hand it out to a LOT more people.
It's a sad state of affairs that people need to be bribed to do the right thing.

No it just cost you your God given right to act like a selfish fucking idiot if you want to.

It frustrates me immensely that my state won't allow us to require it of college students. We already require a bunch of other vaccinations.

The military isn't requiring it now. I remember my boot camp experience was that they marched the whole company to a processing center, and I got shots in my left and right arms, simultaneously, multiple times, with that hypodermic gun. Nobody asked me if I wanted the shots. Hell, they didn't even tell me what they were. Rights? You signed those away when you signed up. IIRC, that's how it works.Gary Sax wrote: It's sad but ultimately well worth it to society to just pay motherfuckers to do it.

While that sounds like some wingnut shit, it makes a difference in what people can be compelled to do. Once one of these goes into general release, expect everybody in the military and every college student to be on the end of a requirement.
(But faculty is generally totally different. I remember being required to get a shot when I enrolled in classes while I was working at a University, and saying "I've been here on this campus every day for years, and now this is important?")

Pushing policies that are potentially fatal to the biggest block of your demographic doesn't seem like a good political play, and yet here we are.

The general effectiveness of masks, hand-washing, and social distancing has really underscored for me how fucking disgusting all these germ-spewing meat bags are.
