For security patches?

I'd also like to think that no one publishes garbage studies, but there we are.

This isn't about contracts, it's about rights.

I assure you it isn't.

All strains affect younger people more than older ones. Because they aren't vaccinated.

There is no doubling here – only random noise.

Anything else is one wolf deciding to eat two lambs. Also, if you enslave almost half the population you definitely don't have a democracy anymore -- unless your slaves are allowed and able to vote and participate in public discourse like anyone else, which likely would not quite be slavery anymore.

> You will find that in professional work for a salary, they are not paying you for hours but for many aspects of the relationship they have with you.

Of course they are paying for hours. An employer has no right to control your life outside the hours it pays for.

No. Your employer is simply irrelevant outside work hours. It's as if you had quit.

Mint doesn't have them either.

Tesla is being treated like any other company here – more leniently, if anything.

Stop twisting my words.

Has the world ever not been "increasingly uncertain"?

That's a stupid comparison and you know it.

Yes, and many would be uncomfortable around black women. Or lesbians. Too bad for them, those are women too.

Sending unsolicited dick picks is sexual harassment. A woman changing in the women's changing room isn't.

Yes, they're causing more and more damage.

Being dead is worse in that it doesn't end, yes. But that year was not worth living.

If there was one, you'd have already told me what it is.

> The commission is worried that taxing fuel for cargo-only flights would adversely affect EU carriers.

Adversely affecting the aviation industry is kind of the whole point you gits.

If you pay using the right method, Mullvad doesn't know your identity.

It absolutely has.

It's a woman's changing room, not a whoever-you-like-seeing changing room. There is no reason (other than some sort of puritanism) to get freaked out about girls seeing penises. In this context, it's just a body part.

> So I guess you didn't hear what has happened at a Wi Spa [0] recently?

A woman went to the women's changing room and some bigots freaked out?

That's what I wrote. But the Professional Audio Manufacturers Alliance does not represent an affected group.

I believe you -- and I don't actually like the gendered terms myself -- but do you have a source for that?

That's a feminist group, not a trans group, but point taken. Though that seems to be more of a group of female prudes. Unless female connectors/plugs are considered somehow inferior to male ones in the industry?

You actually do, in this case. If using the terms "male" and "female" causes harm, the harm it causes is psychological. You can't really realize it from the outside. There is nothing to pre-empt here: These terms are already used to either they already cause harm or they won't start doing so. Which means there is no reason to effectively guess if they cause harm since you can actually ask someone who you think may be harmed. Solving a problem that doesn't actually exist is just a waste of time and resources. Moreover, it gives people the impression that "wokeness" in general is just pointless virtue signalling.

If this terminology actually causes harm we should see trans people and groups propose such a change, not an industry group looking for a PR opportunity.

You're right, there aren't two reasonable sides here. There are people who want things to actually work, and security fetishists.

That will take a while because there is no such thing as proof outside mathematics. But the fact that the percentage of people who suffer permanent damage from Covid is neglible and there would have been plenty of time to detect it is as close as it gets.
