I can easily see this being a safety issue. You don't usually want employees wearing stuff that could anger other employees or customers, no matter the reason.

Most Atheists define Atheism as "lack of belief in a God", which seems like it applies here. Agnostic is usually defined as "lack of knowledge of a God", which also works here, so both Agnostic and Atheist.

It makes sense when you look at Theist (with belief in a God) and Gnostic (with knowledge of a God) that adding an A before it just means "without".

As a Sync user myself, why should I switch? I've been using Sync for years on Reddit, I love the interface, and I don't mind if the dev makes a bit of money from it with the occasional and minimally intrusive ads or paid ad removal.

I could have sworn the original had better than 240p quality...

Yeah, feels like we have taken a step back almost, we went from Apollo to shuttle and back to basically Apollo as far as overall look.

The closest thing to the shuttle that should has a planned Q1 2024 launch date is Dreamchaser. It's much smaller than the shuttle and not nearly as capable, but it at least looks cooler and lands like the shuttle.

I hate to say this, but Facebook Messenger is one of the most fully featured messaging apps. It has its own internal messaging standard that offers iMessage like features between Facebook users, and it also is one of the better SMS apps out there.

I can see why they make it its own app, it's supposed to replace other messaging apps.

This could be true of basically any Android phone on specific carriers, at least in the US.

we are very screwed, in large part because of people like you, enthusiastically volunteering to help with propaganda in support of corporate real estate and retail tycoons.

Where in the hell did you get that from? What does anything I said have to do with real estate?

you could be part of the solution by wearing a mask.

Me being the only person wearing a mask isn't going to help solve anything.

Did you seriously just compare a bad flu virus to HIV? You are just being ridiculous now.

Do you think it's safe outside for an immune compromised person if im the only one wearing a mask? No, obviously it's not. Me staying a mask is going to have no effect on their safety in public. If I went over to this person's house, sure, I would wear a mask if they wanted me to, but in public where nobody is wearing one it's kinda pointless.

If getting sick is that high of a risk, do you really think relying on everyone in public to do something is worth the risk? If it only takes one person not doing something to put yourself at risk, you will be at risk, because you just can't trust everyone in public to do it.

Yeah, I'm not writing a mask for the rest of my life, sorry. Nobody else is wearing one, everyone is agreeing to be out in public without a mask, that's just how life is now.

If everyone around me is not wearing masks, the chances that me specifically will be the cause of someone getting so sick they have disabilities is extremely low. If everyone not wearing a mask would infect dozens or hundreds as you claim, we are already screwed.

If you have medical conditions where you can't risk getting covid, then you shouldn't be going outside with other people in the first place, mask or not.

I don't know how to make this more clear, literally basically everyone doesn't wear a mask anymore here, there is no point to me being the one person wearing one.

If I gave covid to anyone, it was someone who either got it even though I was wearing a mask, or they were intentionally at an unmasked event where neither of us was required to wear one. Either way, I'm not going to be sorry for following the rules and trying to socialize during the pandemic.

I highly doubt I caused anyone death or disability, relatively few people got disabilities or death from covid compared to the whole population.
