@argonaut 🙌 The effort required for this is often underrated.

@nickf We've just started the process of moving to our "summer house" which will become our permanent residence. Will be selling our apartment by summer. The pandemic hugely contributed to this decision.

@nickf Cool! If you feel good about it I have a hard time seeing why not ;)

@LivePaola Whoa, that is neat!! I love rollerblading but haven’t done so in 3-4 years.

@JesperBylund @ArchieComics And in the sense that people argue that there would become different classes of people (those with and without a “passport”) I tend to rely on reasonings around proportionality. When it comes to saving lives, that can require proportionally more restrictive regulations.
@JesperBylund @ArchieComics All this requires risk analysis and actions to mitigate risk, certainly in the form of communication and information. And especially in cases where people actually aren’t able to get a vaccine.
So, as always: it depends on context and the safety regulations in place. :)

@JesperBylund @ArchieComics I think I like how Zuboff differentiates between capitalism and surveillance capitalism. So more that it’s a different version of capitalism that has risen from the insight that data about people is valuable for trade.
But I get you, I could have written just surveillance ;)
@JesperBylund @ArchieComics Vaccine passports are interesting. I had a vaccine passport most of my childhood (yellow card when travelling in Africa) so it’s not the concept of a “passport” itself that I likely would object to (I’m not finished with this reasoning but happy to spitball).
@JesperBylund @ArchieComics The dilemma is, as often when it comes to digital, is vulnerability of data and storage, and potential recklessness in handling, as well as power of access to information. Do I choose to share my information in specific situations or do others "pull it" or is it harvested.
@JesperBylund @ArchieComics But I do actually believe digital can be a huge benefit in terms of vaccination insights and potentially save many lives. Registers of vaccinations have failed to a large extent in the past, where people have very little recollection of when and what vaccines they have taken,

@TheMickNY I'm more of a single malt person, but circumstances make the experience 😊

@Grinblo Wow. 😬 Yeah no actually I think I really mean just that, people generally being lousy at pointing out stuff in your teeth for example. 😕 Think I did a whole talk with a bit of spinach once.
↪ Replying to @Grinblo
@Grinblo 😬 You'd hope other attendees let you know. Like having something in your teeth.

@JesperBylund @BrettFrischmann @sciam From what I understand it wasn't being opposed to all technological change, but being upset about exploitatitive technology that impaired people's wellbeing and made them worse off. Violence is a bad path, but the term is today rarely used to describe people who use violence.
@JesperBylund @BrettFrischmann @sciam But again, this has made me really interested to learn more about what really went down in the 17 and 1800s. If possible...
↪ Replying to @JesperBylund
@JesperBylund @BrettFrischmann @sciam I need to find a good source on Luddites and the history. I hadn't thought that calling someone a Luddite was accusing them of adhering to an extremist ideology. Online texts appear very diverse in how they interpret the history both of the word and the movement's members.

@sara_ann_marie Thank you Sara. This perspective resonates with me. Especially appreciate how you clarify “inherently—because they've HAD to to survive, and men largely haven’t”. This is often how I see it as well. Many so-called differences exist because they’ve been forced by circumstances.
@sara_ann_marie You’re right of course that culture critiques + sows doubt , and that there is an important difference between healthy reflection (what I was thinking on) and harmful, imposed self-doubt., that needs to be called out.

@MetaMikeBiggs This is actually something I do think a lot about. Thanks!
