Yeah, either your world view is pretty closed or you’re trolling. I hope it’s the latter.

The world trade centre attacks caused about 3000 deaths, and ongoing military action impacting a few countries around the world. The US makes up roughly 5% of the worlds population.

The pandemic has so far killed over 4 million people. It has created lockdowns in thousands of cities you’ve never heard of and forced the scientific community of the world to work together on common problems. It has affected every government and billions of people around the world, rather than the few hundred million in the US.

The pandemic is orders of magnitude more significant than the singular terrorist attack the US experienced 20 years ago.

For billions of people in the world, the US and it’s foreign policies have little to no significance.

Can you find me a OLED 4K HDR TV that’s sold in Australia at a consumer level that has no internet connectability?

I’ve been searching for months, I’m yet to find out. The market has varied enough that I can’t see a way to avoid it and still have a TV that supports modern imagery enhancements and standards.

From your article, it seems Apple are encouraging nothing of the sort, and in fact recommending the opposite.

> Apple now says users do not need to unlock or hand over their phones for the system to work for airport security.

The study you have linked does not support the conclusion you’ve drawn from it. I would recommend reading the “Discussion” sections, where the authors discuss other studies in other areas of the world that contradict theirs, and the impact of various social and density factors on their specific study.

> This aligns with lab tests showing that surgical masks have better filtration than cloth masks. However, cloth masks did reduce the overall likelihood of experiencing symptoms of respiratory illness during the study period.

What is it that you think you read in this article? What you have said is not supported in any way by the link you have provided.

If you think the only logical conclusion of law enforcement is incarceration, then I feel bad for you and your country.

I think it’s fairly obvious here you are extrapolating intent here that the parent clearly didn’t have. Your interpretation is likely marred by your own experiences here. It didn’t read to me (and I presume many others) the way it did to you.

Gitpod looks awesome! I hope a CodeCommit integration is coming so I can use this in my environment.

Also great work leading the charge on the COVIDSafe app last year - I knew I knew your name from somewhere!

I wasn’t sold before, but I think you’ve just sold me on it.

I think it’s a device issue for you. My device sees it as black text on a white background.

The thousands of gay children under the age of 13, whose parents have opted into this program, who are sending or receiving pornographic images via iMessage and have chosen when prompted to notify their parents of that?

I can’t imagine that’s a big issue…
