@Pauliejiujits@assimilateborg@DrNeilStone So, really, it's not having the vaccine or otherwise that you a good person or not. With or without, the problem would be mixing with others while unwell & not taking reasonable precautions to stop the spread when in proximity
Vaccinated or not - either can be bad people ๐คท๐
@Pauliejiujits@assimilateborg@DrNeilStone Though, of course, the counter to that is that if you were less unwell you may be more likely to be up and about, n contact with others (spreading) Whereas if you're unvaccinated & suffering more you may be less able to be up and out and so in less contact with others.
@Pauliejiujits@assimilateborg@DrNeilStone Well, actually it didn't in and of itself reduce how transmissive the infection was. However, by reducing severity and period of infection it did have some impact on transmission as someone ill for 5 days can't spread as much as someone ill for 10 days.
@justloki76@histories_arch ๐ค erm, did you actually read the post? If so I think perhaps you misunderstood what it's saying. It's about a strict philological translation, specifically NOT attaching modern values. Nothing to do with feminism ๐คฃ
@ck_gen@FT Smart business play to be given a donation?
I mean, it's a smart business play by kalshi to give a free equity and a seat on the board to the son of the president, yeah.
@B_R_Covi@haribalzac01@archeohistories Was anyone really bothered by BC?
Not personally. And the change jars because I've always used BC/AD. But if people were as vexed by BC as people seem to be by BCE, then maybe some people out there were ๐คท
@B_R_Covi@haribalzac01@archeohistories You can certainly prefer BC/AD because they're historically explicit about where the system came from. Nobody is disputing the reference year; they're just replacing a label that invokes a specific religious figure with one that doesn't.
@haribalzac01@archeohistories Not sure I'd use "scientific" for BC, given it names the pivot point of the calendar after the alleged date a god was miraculously born to a virgin teenager after being told by an angel.
If we're talking scientific rigor, BC vs BCE doesn't seem like the place to draw the line.
@TexasRaised979@CarderoWhite@balajir2@AFpost I know, it does make one LOL a bit.
I've learned all over. Of course school and university, but more general wider reading since then. I can suggest some books if you're interested in any particular period?
@CarderoWhite@balajir2@AFpost Lol. The irony.
Your forefathers left when they couldn't be great where they were; escaped what was a shithole to them, went to north America to make something of themselves
You can't idolise that, then get salty about someone from India doing the same thing two centuries later๐
@haribalzac01@archeohistories Erm. It's been in use for over 300 years. Along with VE (vulgar era). Astrologers like Kepler (a Christian) used it because they considered the calculations of the date for Jesus's birthday were incorrect, so needed to use a different nomenclature for accuracy.
@asherrkiinee But it's not hard is it?
In fact, everyone who answers truthfully gets it right.
You asked "what number do you see". Not "what is the number".
Those are different questions.
As long as someone puts the number they can see, that's a correct answer to the question posed. ๐คท
@Chilis I just don't get what's good about a cheese pull?
It's literally identifying that the cheese will be rubbery, and I'm guessing probably quite tasteless?
