@augieray Ah, sorry. You are correct, I did express myself badly and now the sentence says something else than what I meant.

So to correct myself: I mean masks in public transport could make sense since there are people gathering from pretty much everywhere, for short periods of time and these encounters are quite unavoidable, but an overall mandate in every public space would be overkill.

@augieray Didn’t I just say wearing mask in public transport could make sense? Way to use “the appeal to stone”-fallacy. Great job.
@augieray 4/3 Sorry, quite a ramble… also seems I can’t count. I hope some sensible point can be extracted from this wall of text.
@augieray 3/3 So I understand there are vulnerable people for whom the pandemic is especially dangerous, even if it isn’t quite safe for anyone, but societally the cost for me is too high to force overall mask mandates, lockdowns or such. Masks maybe would make sense in a public transport, but overall the cost is simply too high, especially for younger people who still want to experience life instead of just continuing their life indefinitely as is.
@augieray 2/3 …which is unlike a global pandemic. I’m not saying we don’t have a pandemic which has a real potential of causing serious harm, but so does many other things. Like locking the society indefinitely. Sure I was for the initial lockdowns, when there was a noticeable upside for those — that was buying time for vaccinations and such — but that has now passed.
@augieray 1/3 Well, talking about decreasing activity because of snow might not make much sense for me since I live North. Snow is just a fact of life. Sure sometimes it snows so much you just cannot see pretty much anything, but that happens quite rarely and usually lasts only for a few hours.
@augieray so what is your point? What should people do instead? How should the society be functioning right now?
What fresh hell is this? Adobe has opted me in to letting them train their algorithms on my photos? That’s the end of me using their cloud storage for anything, ever. #privacy #adobe #lightroom #LightroomMobile
