Ew, no. Nobody uses phones for voice communication, dad. We are all shut-ins and any calls must be regarding an immediate life-or-death situation.

Exactly - my sibling just got dealt a shitty hand in trying to stay safe. There’s no absolutes in life, unfortunately.
- Comment on bird flu 4 weeks ago:
Yeah, I agree with all your points - mine boils to just giving a real-world example that “safe and effective” does not mean “completely safe” or “completely effective”. Just like if you are driving to a dealership to trade in your old beater for a 5-star safety rated car, just to be hit and killed by a F-450 on the way there; trying to protect yourself still comes with risk. Everything, everyday, is a risk. Not taking action, is a risk. Just need to evaluate the best course of action for whatever situation, and act.

That too, though they (and myself) have no known allergies.
I’ve thinking about getting tested, as I know my mother is deathly allergic to seafood, for example. Found that out as her windpipe constructed at a restaurant, apparently (before my time). I don’t want to find out that my body doesn’t jive with something as I’m rushing to the ER…
- Comment on bird flu 4 weeks ago:
It was the only change in their day-to-day life (they, and myself, are both housebound due to disabilities), and is a known risk of any injection, afaik. I’m not into the med field myself so this is all secondary knowledge, but I found the name of the condition: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guillain–Barré_syndrome (jeez that’s a mangled url).
Doubt all you want, but I watched it unfold over the course of a week before they were admitted to the hospital, and stayed there for over a month before being able to return home. I watched the difficulties grow, and I went to see them in the hospital a couple weeks after being admitted. It was absolutely heartbreaking. They already had enough to deal with before it occurred (physical and cognitive impairments, from birth) and it was just… just really trying, showing strength and being positive while scared I was going to lose a sibling.

To piggyback off this:
Not to be that guy, but I have an immediate family member who got their booster and (I don’t remember what the technical term was, apologies) their immune system started attacking their nerves, which caused them to lose most control over their hands, arms, feet, and legs, and at the worst point, become bedridden and at risk of dying, had they not received the care they did (I’ve been told the docs said ‘a few more days and it would have been too late’). They are recovering, still, almost 3y later; daily care, wheelchair, walker, weekly therapy. It’s been a very slow process, and they only got the help they needed because another family member is in the medical field and was able to correctly diagnose their situation, when their main (prior, now) gp shrugged it off as the flu (???) twice, even as their condition was worsening and painfully obviously not just “the flu”. I have heard of friends of friends who seem to have had this phenomenon occur, but we’re not as lucky to receive (the correct) treatment in time.
Two other family members who got the booster at the same time had no issues. I got mine a couple months after, with no issues. They are usually safe… but not always. Practicing medicine, studying science; never absolutes. Healthy dose of skepticism is okay. But weigh the risks logically, not just “this can happen so I’m never going to do X”, as someone X can save you from Y. My mom in particular was freaking out when I got my booster - understandable, but it’s one risk over another.

You can turn this wifi and bt scanning/‘location accuracy improvements’ off though, at least on android. It’s tucked away in the settings but once it’s done, it’s done.

- Comment on Huawei tr-fold review 3 months ago:
It was… minus the battery failures after a year or so of use. The 6P was supposed to be their foot in the NA market, and they fucked it. Mine failed, family members’ failed, friends failed. The LG was no better for that year, something about a mobo shorting after X amount of time with the 5X. Again, family members’ had them, failed.
