Coronavirus
FDA says Johnson & Johnson Covid-19 vaccine meets requirements for emergency use authorization.
https://www.cnn.com/2021/02/24/h…
Who the hell wants to receive a vaccine that is only 66.9% effective?
• Johnson & Johnson covid-19 vaccine 66.9% effective
• Pfizer covid-19 vaccine 95% effective
• Moderna covid-19 vaccine 94.1% effective- I trust Johnson.
NOT so much Johnson.ideaist - S P U T N I K 5renderedred
- isn't the point they all prevent serious illness/hospitalisat...fadein11
- LOL, ideaist.
I read that in Norm Macdonald's voice.palimpsest - open and shut case johnsonGuyFawkes
- i heard that J&J was tested against many more covid variants and that's why lower % and if Pf or Mod had tested against the newer variants it wouldnt be in theslinky
- 90+ %slinky
- and i also heard they are considering a 2nd J&J shot which would raise effectiveness to similar to Pf & Mod.slinky
- 66.9% is very high. A typical flu vaccine for comparison might only be 40-50% effective. But that's enough. Pfizer/Modern are amazingly highBaskerviIle

- So you guise can get in line for the 66% effective vaccine shot...I'm getting the 95% effective vaccine shot.utopian
- 28% effectiveness is a big difference.utopian
- Probability is a dick like that.noRGB
- as long as everyone shoots up the 5G we will all be fineGuyFawkes

- I'd get it, then get the Pfizer/Moderna later when they are more available. Something is better than nothing at this pointakiersky
- I trust Johnson.

Bitcoin
If you bought 1 bitcoin last year, guess how many bitcoins you'd have today?
Yeah, 1.
So it's stable.Maybe it's the $ that's fluctuating.
Think about that.Bitcoin is mathematically limited to 21m ever being printed.
How many $ are the US Federal Reserve limited to printing, and how much say do you have in them issuing more currency? Because each time they pump another trillion into the economy that dollar you have your wallet just lost some of its value, that 1 bitcoin you have, is still 1 bitcoin.- There’s no need to explain it. The naysayers have their minds made up here. Crypto currency is only the Future. Hard to believe people don’t get it.BH26
- An extremely libertarian viewpoint to say the least... following your logic if it falls down to sub $4k you'd be happy because it would still be 1 BTC. stablejonny_quest_lives
- maybe the sun is stable and the Earth rotates around IT! ever think about that??sarahfailin
- Comparing the Bitcoin ecosystem to the Fed is not accurate as Bitcoin was developed to allow transfer of capital between to parties without the need of banksjonny_quest_lives
- FYI guys... we orbit around Pluto.shapesalad
- Hurr durr 1 bitcoin. Stable genius. You're a fucking jokebabydick
- If you can redeem/sell your Bitcoin for the price you want more power to you... but trying to validate this emperor has no clothes shady exhange ecosystemjonny_quest_lives
- is another matter... The legitimacy you crave comes with regulations... and I am by no means defending the current financial systemjonny_quest_lives
- it has flaws, but is regulated by the government with appointed oversight which in theory should hold fiscal entities in compliance with laws and adequatejonny_quest_lives
- funding to issue credit. Who do you appeal to if something goes wrong on current exhanges? or an exchange locks u out during tradingjonny_quest_lives
- because the exchange may be complicit in the price manipulation themselves and not have redeemable capital at all?jonny_quest_lives
- this is not a decentralized marketplace at all that ship has sailedjonny_quest_lives
- https://cbeci.org/mi…jonny_quest_lives
- If the dollar was really fluctuating that much then a pizza that cost $10 a decade ago would cost a million dollars. The opposite of what happened with Bitcoin.yuekit
- And let's be honest if Bitcoin wasn't so unstable in value no one would be talking about it. The thing that makes it attractive as a speculative investmentyuekit
- is the same thing that makes it unworkable as a real world currency.yuekit
- Value of $ isn’t based on Bitcoin you fucking clown. Compare it to baseball cards or another commodity if you want to make comparisons. This is stupid.monospaced
- One thing's for sure - Bitcoin et al is a more divisive topic than Mac vs. PC.Nairn

who the hell puts bread in the freezer?- Only acceptable if you live in the tropics. You get mould on bread almost instantaneously.thumb_screws

- Sliced bread in N. America is already pretty lame. Nice to keep frozen for the odd sandwich or avocado toast when you don’t want to walk to the bakerynb
- Bread freezes wellGnash
- If we have more than one loaf for some reason, the extra goes in the freezer. Tend not to eat a lot of it.i_monk
- TIL pango is probably getting fat on a shit-ton of bread he’s pigging out on before it needs to be frozen.Continuity
- With COVID, and eating all meals inside, for three people 3x a day, sandwiches are regular. I buy and store bread in the freezer when it's on sale.monospaced

@sted those are great, here in Portugal it's a christmas tradition, coated in sugar and cinnamondmay - Haven't had bread in months.

Been trying to learn how to do social media in 2021 and feeling like a fake tryhard fool the whole time but just trying to get my music heard / make some connections. Its kinda agonizing and totally against my nature but i feel like if i just stick to it, it'll get easier and feel less cringey. But fuck does it ever feel cringey. Maybe im too judgemental, of myself but also of others because i have a very low tolerance for 'shit that i would be embarrassed to show to the public'. I feel like you kinda need no shame?
Anyway maybe this was more for the 'signs your getting old' thread.
- now im riddled with self doubt for even posting this. what is wrong with me.mantrakid
- so needy and pathetic, nate. why do you think anyone cares?mantrakid
- i donno nate. i guess it just seems like something that shouldnt bother me so i want to get to a point where it doesnt bother me as much and i feel comfortable.mantrakid
- but even more, i think the reason i feel uncomfortable is because im just trying to do what other people are doing. Maybe there's a way to 'be me'..mantrakid
- and i just havent found it yet. It feels like shit to just flog my work like a hooker on a street corner but maybe theres a way to do it uniquely or somethingmantrakid

Bitcoin
Even putting aside the price stability issue...ease of use, speed, scalability, reliability, security seem like some pretty basic expectations people would have for digital payments.
Is there a cryptocurrency that currently offers these things? I think the decentralized aspect of crypto actually works against it. Large institutions like VISA and PayPal are able to offer fast reliable digital payment networks because they are large institutions.
IMO that's why Facebook's Libra project (or whatever they are calling it now)...with all these big names behind it, was seen as far more threatening than Bitcoin by the government.
Maybe it will all change in the future as the technology improves but right now it's hard to imagine a decentralized digital currency competing with a centralized one in terms of mass adoption.
- Visa and Mastercard are not instant. The payment is, the settlement is not, that's why you have chargebacks and payments blocked for monthsESKEMA
- It will get faster, it will get cheaper, and it will get easier to use. Same as Internet speed was 56K in the early days.zaq
- I see blockchain not as technology improvement, but rather power disruption. Old money and power has little control over it.zaq
- https://cryptobriefi…BH26
- @zaq What I meant is that as fundamental technologies improve... computing, internet speed, energy efficiency... it may become more viable.yuekit
- Right now it's an insanely resource intensive, inefficient way to buy a cup of coffee. For investing it makes sense, not so much for everyday payments.yuekit
