That's an interesting idea. I don't know if the FTC has the authority to do so under the current powers given to it by Congress, and I don't know if I'd like the precedent of them trying without Congress so delegating that power. I'd be totally willing to discuss Congress delegating them said authority.

Because US and Europe can pay that much more the Big Pharma is going to make the 3rd, 4th,... booster shots instead of trying to satisfy that low-income countries demand. And making new vaccine against delta seems also less profitable than just pushing the booster shots. Immunity falling in 6 months - sounds like a situation somewhat between subscription model and 12 hours Vicodin, you can be sure that the MBAs know how to exploit it.

What happens around covid is well outside just the supposed medical issue of pandemic fighting. If anything it is seems to be primarily about business and politics. For example US officially pressured Brazil to not take Russian vaccine https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/2021/03/16/hhs-brazil-s... .
Amazon bought 3.0.0.0/8 from GE in 2018 [1].

So part of this is putting into service networks that they previously acquired, probably to keep up with growth. Buying in 2018 would have been a MUCH lower price than today -- and it can pretty much only go up!

There is a pause on evictions and financial support from government.

Banks are motivated to allow mortgage payments to be deferred (high property prices and more income via interest payments are good for business).

The pause on evictions force landlords to enter negotiate with tenants who need rent reductions in order to survive. If they don’t they risk losing months of rent and having no tenant in bad market.

Most of the workforce in these industries are casual employees who are also covered by goverment assistance if their hours are reduced. Full time workers also get support if they are furloughed.

I have friends who own these types of businesses. Spikes in case numbers result in booking cancellations/low patronage so the whole situation is perceived as an unfortunate catch-22 situation.
"Company time" is steering you wrong there. When a worker's shift starts she doesn't become chattel property of the employer for the duration of her shift. Instead, she's doing work that the company paid for while retaining her own personhood.

> Have you used the Apple ecosystem?

Yes, and I've used it. I'll admit, it is nice. Apple is great about things "just working," but there are also costs to that feature. I'm not sure why people think this is the only way to have said convenience. The major difference is just that Apple this convenience is by default. Honestly Google provides most of this by default too.

> I haven't used others and I am telling you how it looks from my point of view.

And I've used both, and telling you how it is from my point of view. Stop having strong opinions about things that you admittedly don't have experience with. It isn't a good look.

> I will have to invest resources to discover the things you talk about.

You had to invest resources to adapt Apple's ecosystem.

> And there are lots of assumptions in the things you suggested, like that I am fine with using Google or Linux,

Well Google, Linux, Windows, and third party ROMs like Lineage are essentially the only other options out there, so I'm not sure I made many assumptions. And of the most popular, for phones your options are most likely to be Google (i.e. Android) or iOS. The only other option is... third party ROMs. I guess for desktop you could in fact develop your own (besides Linux or Windows), but I think this would fall under a third party custom ROM (if phone) or Linux (if computer). Then again, you could be a BSD person or someone that insists it is GNU/Linux. Let's be real, that's just pedantic, you know what I mean. I'm not going to name every alternative (that's impossible), especially since I covered by far the most popular ones, which share >90% of user share. Why do we have to be so pedantic?

I don't know man, the more you're fighting against this the more it seems like you're just saying "I don't want to try something new." That's fine, but just be open about it. I get it, new things are scary, different, and require you to relearn some things. But that's a different argument. Just state that argument if that's what you're trying to say. Don't make me work for it. Just be honest.

There are obvious differences and now the trope about reading old text.

1. Cantonese recognizes the Chinese as a common people and have a word for it. The word isn’t just used historically but is used to this day. The French don’t see the Italians as fellow Latins much less call them that.

2. There is a continuous use of a single written language. It isn’t about reading text from 2000 years ago. It is communication even within a subgroup using the same written language. One job people had not so long ago was to write letters for those who were illiterate to communicate with family and others far away. My grandmother did that.

Sinitic influenced cultures invented their own scripts: Japanese hiragawa, Korean Hangul, Tibet has had its own script. Vietnamese may be the closest, having adopted their own recently.

The French use the French written language to communicate with each other. The Germans use the German written language to communicate with each other.

3. Furthermore, there are continued common cultural traditions expressed in that language (classics) and practiced to this day (Chinese New Year, tomb sweeping festival, moon festival, etc…)

4. Whereas other people’s recognize some of those traditions as coming from China (Art of War) and as coming from another group, the Chinese have always seen them as their own.

This is the case with both people speaking Mandarin as well as Cantonese. My high school classmate would read the Art of War. He spoke Mandarin. My grandfather many decades earlier would read Chinese classics. He spoke what is often called a dialect of Cantonese. Both felt that it was a core part of their cultural inheritance.

The English celebrate Newton as their own. Some French may think highly of him but they don’t recognize him as French.

5. There is this misconception that China was a bunch of disconnected cultural groups till recently. That wasn’t the case. My grandfather from southern Chinese went to a university in Beijing. This was roughly 100 years ago.

I wonder how the various imperial ages of China controlled their empire? I wonder what written language the imperial exam system was in?

6. Also, group affinity in China is far more granular than you think. It isn’t first Cantonese vs Beijing. It is first what is your ancestral village.

You seem to want to look at the distinctions but don’t want to look at the common identity. Whether someone sees another as part of the group or not, these groups have a lot of shared and continuing culture. There are definitely groups in China that don’t have this share this common culture but that is to ignore the many that do. The reality doesn’t seem so clear cut to me.

I don’t know much about the other subgroups in China beyond the several I grew up with and encountered. Perhaps they are different but it would be far more enlightening to hear from people actually from those areas. It would be doubly interesting to hear of the perspectives of their grandparents.

That doesn’t mean that Bitcoin is impossible, but a boutique escrow agent such as one of these linked will have to be proposed by the buyer, and the seller will have to accept the risk of a relatively unknown agent being involved.

Depends how much I was drinking (that varies substantially across the population) but cancer risk usually doesn't track exactly with total exposure compared to ongoing exposure - i.e. when you quit smoking your lung cancer risk decreases the longer you stay quit, until after 5-7 years it tends to level out at about the normal population level.

They probably got a /8 early and gave each regional office their own /16, so they'd have to unpick all the addresses they're currently using before they could sell off any.
Even the wikipedia article you site says nothing about "learning to endure pain". Usage of the keisaku/kyousaku like that is not unheard of, but these stories get recounted as problems to avoid, not as models to follow. In my experience, the keisaku can really provide a spike of motivation, both hearing it echo throughout the zendo, as well as receiving the strike yourself. Any "pain" is on par with that of stiffly clapping ones hands; it might tingle a little bit.

Leg pain is also, of course, a thing, but this is purely incidental in my experience. Modulo special circumstances, the lotus position is really good at minimizing pain when sitting for extended periods. Of course, if your legs are not flexible enough to sit in lotus, then even zen monks will sit in half- or even quarter-lotus. I've even seen exceptional cases of people sitting in other positions for medical reasons, but over time, most gravitate to full lotus.

> Zen training is about letting of the need to react to it, accepting it and continuing, just as one learns to endure and not react to thoughts that arise, or emotions that come and go.

That's way too complicated. I'd be inclined to say that zazen is about folding your legs and sitting. Everything that happens in that space is orthogonal to your butt on the cushion, which is such a freeing feeling to directly encounter oneself.

I went effectively teetotal around 2007 (I got spectaculary blackout drunk - woke up nearly a day later and couldn't remember getting home or much of the 8hrs prior to that - decided that was a silly way to live and quit).

Honestly not something I miss, I raise a glass of whiskey every xmas in remembrance of my grandfathers (Irish one side, Scottish the other).

Otherwise never, it's fun when the doc/nurse asks "How any units do you drink?" "About one per year" it's such a massive in-grained part of our culture (I'm British) still.

Though the youngsters coming up now drink way less than I did at 18 in 1998 - partly cost and partly a greater awareness of the damage (plus there is just so much more for the average teenager to do now).

The evidence on alcohol and pariculary mouth/oesphagal problems is pretty compelling but I'm not a doctor.
I think that it starts to have downward pressure at /22 to /20. You can see Hilco's historicals at [1]. Not all purchases are done in public though.

It seems to me like an arbitrage opportunity, since /24 and /23 networks have many more potential buyers. But you have to be approved with a regional registry for the amount of space in order to buy it.

Observing things from the buy side, I suspect that IP space is being brought to auction in a slow but steady trickle so as to maintain upward momentum on prices. The price has approximately doubled in the last year.

I would not call that arbitrary play store rules.

Rather the general app sandbox has had tightened security, which affects api compatibility, thus play rejects it to make sure it’s future proofed by author. In the meantime, during phase-out, sideloading works so old versions of app suddenly don’t stop working, but eventually that call will stop working.

Whether apps should be allowed to download and execute code out of the apk bundle itself is of course another political topic.

It looks like the study did adjust the dosage level to a value recommended by advocates of Ivermectin like the FLCCC, .04mg per kilogram. However Ivermectin proponents have been vocal that many of the negative studies only administer Ivermectin well past initial onset of covid symptoms. I would like to find the data on how long after initial onset of symptoms, or a covid positive test, Ivermectin was given. I do not see any links to the current study in question all I see from the MSM links are PowerPoint slides and a symposium presentation. The study groups website only has links to a previous off label treatment study that included other potential therapeutics but not Ivermectin. If anyone knows where you can read the preprint I would love to take a look.
> But they do appear to do "something" server-side. It's possible that all data in scanned as it is ingested for example. I dislike this statement, because it's probably technically correct but doesn't help clarify the situation in a helpful way. It makes me trust Apple less.

The qualifier is "Photos" - different services have different security properties.

Email transport is not E2E encrypted because there are no interoperable technologies for that.

Other systems are encrypted but apple has a separate key escrow system outside the cloud hosting for law enforcement requests and other court orders (such as a heir/estate wanting access).

Some like iCloud Keychain use more E2E approach where access can't be restored if you lose all your devices and paper recovery key.

iCloud Photo Sharing normally only works between AppleID accounts, with the album keys being encrypted to the account. However, you can choose to publicly share an album, at which point it becomes accessible via a browser on icloud.com. I have not heard Apple talking about whether they scan photos today once they are marked public (going forward, there would be no need).

FWIW this is all publicly documented, as well as what information Apple can and can't provide to law enforcement.
