Hello, we're going to try something different, I'm the admin now. Post hard and post fast. Feature incoming. Read Capitalist Realism. Real shit.
Planning on fleshing this thread out throughout the night.
I got a vaccine appointment after refreshing 6 different web pages basically continuously for ten hours straight before i could find a cancellation and register for it before someone else beat me to it/a script picked it up. That getting a vaccination is a matter of such competition feels extremely american.
My parents in the U.K. got a phone call asking what time they wanted to come in for a shot next week, with zero effort or outreach on their part…when I mention that to colleagues here in the US, it’s met with a bizarre mixture of complete disbelief that it could be that simple and concern that there was a “database of people”.
Yeah the database is called being registered with your local gp. So scary.
Lol damn, especially at the database of people part. The only difference here is that the database is owned privately by facebook and google.
Do they... do they know about the phone book?
Where I live in NY, I qualified for my job. However when getting to the vaccination site, I wasn’t required to show any proof of qualification, which makes me wonder if the system can just be gamed with people claiming they qualify without actually qualifying.
