Try to see it from his point of view. She just being close minded.

Agreed, the message to pregnant women is stay far away from this. Even if the number drops drastically, it is higher than anyone would want it to be.

[–] kevin@programming.dev 1 points 11 months ago

I fully agree with you, the number will still be terrible. But it will probably be lower than 90

There are two potential issues with the study mentioned. Small sample size and most cases with pregnant women were in developing countries. My guess is that death rates among pregnant women are probably higher than normal, but not as severe as 87%. That number will probably come down as more cases are recorded.

... a little more than a month after Creel’s passing, Levi claimed that his former co-star’s death from a “turbo cancer” was due to the COVID-19 vaccine.

So, yeah. She's got a point.

Still, some think safety measures do more to inconvenience motorists than to protect pedestrians.

Oh no, wouldn't want to be inconvenient to motorist.

Do you know what else is really inconvenient? Death. Tends to mess with your plans.

The Title II difference is a very good point, all analogies fall apart at some point.

I agree the ISPs, like many other companies, will all be courting the new White House to get what they want.

As far as the car itself, BMW provides you with a product. This differs from a service where the provider can set in place rules that you need to abide by. If I want to chop the top off my new BMW and install ugly spoiler, there's nothing that BMW can do about that.

[–] kevin@programming.dev 2 points 1 year ago

All very true, BMW is a very scummy company lately.

My argument was that primarily, BMW is a manufacturer of a product. It would be a better analogy to a modem company being sued for the content that was transmitted through their device.

Side note, I think the feature unlock trend in cars is the worst possible thing.
