  • This is not coming from me btw.

    VAERS is not designed to assess cause and effect, VAERS reports alone cannot be used to determine if a vaccine caused or contributed to an adverse event (AE) or illness. Some reports may contain information that is incomplete, inaccurate, coincidental, or unverifiable. Most reports to VAERS are voluntary, which means they are subject to bias. Data from VAERS reports should be interpreted with these limitations in mind.

    VAERS reporting can be done by anyone: Vaccine providers, other health care professionals, local public health agencies, vaccine recipients, patients, and/or family members of people who have received a vaccine are encouraged to submit a VAERS report when an adverse event occurs after vaccination.

    Seems pretty clear to me. Not sure how you can sit there and say that this is a reliable data source. This may help detect certain issues and patterns, but it’s not a data source in which you can call a source of truth. Someone would need to further investigate each report to make a better determination.

    You say it’s against the law to make false statements, but this doesn’t matter when there is no control and these statements can be made with complete bias. It’s not that people are lying, they believe what they are saying, but it doesn’t mean the information is actually true.

    There are plenty of other studies around vaccines that show the risks like you mentioned, but they also show that the benefits far outweigh the downside. I don’t even know why politics has anything to do with this. We are talking about facts and science and I don’t understand how politics has anything to do with this.

    I honestly don’t even understand what you are even arguing for. You just sound like an old guy yelling at the kids to get off his lawn.








  • Was this in the Bible or something? Why is it immoral?

    Let me ask this. Imagine 1 person owned many farms of food. They sell their food and they own a huge house on top of the hill. There is more than enough food to feed every person in town. The only way for anyone to get food is to buy it from this one person since he owns all of the farm land and if anyone tries to farm their own food, he uses his money to push them around and makes them stop.

    A family is struggling to find work. The father asks the farm owner if he could get some food to eat. The farm owner obviously says no. Pay or no food, he says. The family ends up starving to death.

    Would it be wrong for the family to steal food in this case so they can survive? Or is that immoral? Is the farm owner immoral for not helping them? He has plenty of money to last him 100 lifetimes, his belly is full, but he keeps eating. Who is wrong here?





  • There are a few services out there that do this. They are basically job tracking sites, but a lot of them now use something like chatgpt to tailor your resume to a job description. I do recommend these services to track jobs you applied to, but they are not always the best in rewriting your resume.

    One thing I have done is create a section of skills that closely match the jobs I am applying for. You can then use chatgpt API and create a prompt. This makes it easier so that all you need to do is give it the job description and it will tailor those skills sets to the job and I then just copy and paste that into my resume.

    Yes, you have iptables and nftables, but it’s not always enabled. So, when I said installed, I really meant enabled. I 100% agree with what you are saying though.

    Unfortunately a lot of places just have shitty IT and people go rogue because of it. Some people are just impatient though as it sounds like in this case.

    You also have things like apparmor and selinux. If those are enabled, you might be chasing your tail trying to figure out why something is not working. You would need to know where to look and how to fix it.


  • This story has nothing to do with why Linux would be any better than Windows. Sure, if you lie to people, then anything can be convincing. What if I had a firewall installed in Linux, wouldn’t you have had the same issues?

    This is sort of the problem I have with a lot of Linux enthusiasts, when you have a hammer, everything is a nail.

    Compared to Windows and MacOS as a client desktop, Linux still severely falls behind, but it is getting better. For a server, Linux is just far superior.




  • This has less to do with Elon and more to do with twitter itself. Why were other platforms created in the first place like Lemmy? Could it be to decentralize these platforms so that no one entity can control them, including the government? This whole shit show with Brazil shows us exactly why these platforms should exist. The oppression of the people need to stop.

    Instead of complaining about others and offering no contributions to this platform, I’d love to hear your take on this and start an open discussion. It seems like you have something on your mind, so why not speak it?


  • Had issues downloading for offline. Recommendations are meh. Sometimes I can’t search. Sometimes the app won’t load when on cell data.

    I never had issues like those before and then all of the sudden, it’s not even usable. I get having bad cell coverage somewhere, but I would have a strong signal and it will still do it. I had to uninstall and reinstall the app multiple times for it to work.

    Tidal is now cheaper and it has everything I would listen to. Before they were missing some bands and deezer had them. Doesn’t seem to be the case anymore.
