Been trying to figure out whether I made the right call on staying home from the cruise this week. Felt so hard to get quantitative estimates of risk.
Turns out Vacaya just published stats for their gay cruise last week. 1568 passengers; nearly 2000 booked. All fully vaccinated, most boosted. Several hundred tested positive on arrival. 27 tested positive onboard and were isolated for duration of voyage. 72 more identified as close contacts, and isolated for 24 hours.

“I am now convinced that the simplest approach will prove to be the most effective. The solution to poverty is to abolish it directly by a now widely discussed matter: the guaranteed income. The curse of poverty has no justification in our age.” —MLK Jr 1967 #DemocraticSocialism
Exciting last week with the Google Analytics ruling by the Austrian DPA. Our traffic and trials up 50% and we didn't even publish any posts.

Blarfenghar. I noticed the speakers on my new Apple MacBook Pro 14-inch M1 Pro were cracking frequently at low volume.
Apparently lots of people are having the same problem.
I waited to buy gen 2 to avoid this shit.

I saw a Prop 65 warning on a food label. The explanation link affirmed my unexamined opinion the prop was as useless as a cookie warning.
I wondered if there were any repeal efforts. Turns out, it’s actually done a lot of good.

There is no subject he cannot make political.
I say, “Remember this fond memory?” He responds about then being a “sane” time.
I say, “All your grandkids want to see you.” He says, “Too many liberals.”
I say, “Thanks for xyz growing up.” He says, “Why don’t you like trump?”
I work in tech, fight for digital rights and the environment, kiss dudes, cycle, lift heavy things, and don’t eat animals. Swedish immigrant, US American emigrant. Occasionally shirtless.
