It does also protect masked uninfected people from unmasked infected people. See https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7883189/ , especially section 4.

But it’s “work to live” not just survive. You spend the rest of the time on living. Whether that’s fishing, hunting, crocheting, watching football, playing games, or something else. Enough money to do what you want to.

The first rule of therapy club is that you talk about therapy club.

“well if I admit that circumcision of babies is wrong, that means there’s something wrong with my penis. And I don’t want there to be something wrong with my penis. Therefore I’m on the side of genital mutilation being ok.”

A true grammar Nazi would obviously know that it is a proper contraction. No true Scotsman and all that ;P

There’s no definition of Europe at all in play here. It’s the EU. A specific subset of countries, which is not the same as Europe. So what I wrote only goes one way. I’m not quite sure it’s an argument, really. I presented the facts, and said that something with a maximum difference of 35% is very comparable. The first result I got through Google was the numbers I have given, which are also the official numbers from the European Union itself. That should be a lot more correct than other numbers you could find.

If you want to google it, make sure you use “EU population”, not “Europe population”. Or you can look at that link I gave, which gives data not just for the EU, but a lot of other European countries as well.

No one said what they learned was useful ;P

AFAIK you can have roles which have access to different parts of your server. Thus you can have that all newly joined accounts have a role where they only can see and interact with a channel for those waiting for acceptance. You can even make it “fill out a form in a thread” for why they want to join, and only after they’ve been accepted will they be given access to the rest of the server (or just some of it)

I’m not attacking you, I’m attacking your words.

And the reason I said you were obstinate were because you were. You refused to accept that it works since it doesn’t do it in the way you want it to. And now you’re rage-downvoting. You should probably take a few minutes off.

EDIT: No, you didn’t state that it didn’t work after seven minutes and multiple routs of attempting to get the link to resolve. I see that you have edited that in later, in one of the later comments. It worked on the reload for me. And no, it’s not preventing input to improve a product, it’s asking you to be less absolutist in your comments. “It doesn’t work as well as it should” compared to your “it doesn’t work”. When it obviously does work, albeit could work better.

Edit: No ;P

Who said I can program?

EDIT: If I could do the work to make it work better I would.

EDIT:
obstinate
adjective
ob·​sti·​nate ˈäb-stə-nət : stubbornly adhering to an opinion, purpose, or course in spite of reason, arguments, or persuasion

Sound’s like you’re just being obstinate, then. It works, just not how you would prefer (well, I would also prefer that it didn’t give an error screen like that, but that’s besides the point). This is still early days of an open source project, and for that one should have a bit more understanding than for corporate products. A lot of other services also started out very unpolished and took time to get better.

The good thing is that you should be able to contribute and make it so that it doesn’t do that since you wrote you were a software developer for your whole career.

EDIT: nice angry downvote, Cosmic Cleric…

Yeah, that would work as well. I’m sure there are times when there isn’t a community that someone made such a link to, and at those times it should show an error screen, obviously.

So you’re saying you did know that Lemmy has the thing where if you’re the first one to ask to get community data from another instance the link will give you an error and you must click it again (or reload) to get the instanced version of that community for your instance, and then say that it doesn’t work?

That doesn’t sound to me like you knew how Lemmy works. I can agree that it should be more hands-off for the user and the server should silently just do the thing to get the instanced community before sending data back to the client, but that’s a different argument.

Here you go.

That is how Lemmy works. Not my fault if you didn’t know that.

A couple times. I found the sequels to be much worse movies than the prequels. I mean, episode 7 is okay-ish. It’s mostly episode 4 again. Episode 8 shit the bed. I didn’t watch 9. The original trilogy is a good story.

No, people must know that their enjoyment is wrong!!! ;P

Like Trainguyrom wrote, you’re probably the first user on your instance trying to access it. Try the link again. It’s the proper way to link to communities using Lemmy. Your link doesn’t give people on other instances the easy option to subscribe to the community.

EDIT: Interestingly enough it looks like someone went through the first page of my profile and downvoted each comment of mine. Hmmm, how very strange ;P

More vaccines faster seems like a good thing to me. It’s not clear whether you intended it to be read as a negative or a positive.
