3.4M vaccinations reported today! Weekly average up to 2.9M.

30% of total population (37.5% of eligible population) has received at least one dose.

At this pace we're headed for Israel-like vaccination levels in one month. Let's step it up even more!!https://t.co/TZyKWgsEfh pic.twitter.com/z1SDipyzmL

Well, at least in one area we’re rocking the mic like a vandal. I’ll take it.

In temperate climates, if you can't build your town near water you simply build water near your town. The cost of digging a canal deep enough for boat, barge, sail, is peanuts compared to the land value increase. And don't forget to make it the main route, for maximum effect. pic.twitter.com/JN7nU4H91s

I’m all about this. If you can’t walk out your door and see some fish, you’re living in the wrong place.

CDC Data Suggests Vaccinated Don’t Carry, Can’t Spread Virus.

I know these are news articles are all pointing to the same study, but I don’t care. I just like rubbing the “expert” noses in this. It was “impossible” a few months ago. I said it was very likely.

I was right. Why? I can read a fucking book.

Google speeds partial office reopening and puts limits on remote work.

If after Sept. 1, employees want to work remotely for more than 14 days per year, they will need to formally apply.

I told you that the MBAs absolutely hated everyone working from home, despite it mostly being more productive, and were going to put the kibosh on that as soon as fucking possible. They simply do not care about productivity. They care about asses in seats and being able to lord over their human chattel. That’s all, that’s it.

Easiest prediction ever, ever.

The Genesis X is a curvy, high-tech luxury EV concept.

Why does it need that large front grille? Remove that and it’d be even better.

Pfizer says vaccine protection lasts at least 6 months after second shot.

I will stress this again, because ya’ll can’t read: “six months” DOES NOT MEAN “only six months.” It means that was the resolution of the study.

But that’s good news. I’d expect natural immunity from Covid (as in, catcing the virus) to last about two years in most people (say 90%), and about 2-3 years for the vaccines, particularly the mRNA-based shots.

But time will tell.

It’s weird how a little reading saves so much confusion and wrongness. Like when the variants were first emerging and “experts” were saying that they were more transmissible but not more deadly.

And I knew from reading my virology textbooks that when a virus becomes more transmissible that it almost always also becomes more deadly. I thought, Hmm, that’s really weird, bet that’s not true. And it wasn’t. The variants are both more transmissible and more deadly.

There’s nothing amazing about me. Anyone could do it. But you have to actually do it. Not looking like a dumbass all the time is worth it, though.

Ubiquiti breach puts countless cloud-based devices at risk of takeover.

Unless I absolutely cannot avoid it, I will NEVER buy any networking equipment where I am forced to log into it through a vendor website.

This is exactly why. Predictable as a politician being corrupt.
