[22:51] DaemonFC[m] They have this really elaborate vaccine registration site, and like nobody I have heard from has been allowed to schedule yet. [22:52] DaemonFC[m] They had 400,000 people (half the population of the county, roughly) register so far. [22:53] DaemonFC[m] Getting a lay of the land on Facebook, it's mostly Republicans who are saying people will get the vaccine and fall over dead. One of them thinks it's 0.1% from the virus and about 0.1% of the people who get the vaccine. [22:53] DaemonFC[m] The actual risk appears to be about 2.6% of those who get the virus die, and maybe 0.0001% who get the vaccine die. From an allergic reaction. [22:54] DaemonFC[m] I was wondering what percentage of people who are going to have an allergic reaction have it in the 15 minutes that the pharmacist is monitoring you. [22:54] DaemonFC[m] According to CDC, it's 78%. [22:55] DaemonFC[m] It would seem, however, that there's probably more risk of sitting people off in a room together (from COVID) than there is from an allergic reaction to the vaccine. [22:56] DaemonFC[m] MinceR: I noticed another company price gouging in an app when if you go inside it's cheaper. [22:56] *gry has quit (Ping timeout: 240 seconds) [22:56] DaemonFC[m] Cracker Barrel adds a dollar or two to each thing on the menu if you order it to go on the app, but it's the price of dining in if you go inside and order the same thing. [22:57] MinceR cracker barrel? but i don't even know 'er! [22:57] DaemonFC[m] Apps are 100% pure cancer. Along with this gig economy bullshit, they enable companies to predict how much each customer will pay and show them a specific price for them. [22:58] DaemonFC[m] It moves the agency of the one price for everyone model and gives them an advantage where they can separate everyone and offer them higher or lower prices based on data. [22:58] DaemonFC[m] I caught Amazon doing it with me and mom. [22:59] DaemonFC[m] Amazon saw that I was in Outdoor World looking at insulated travel mugs, so it offered me a price that was $5 lower than the mug at Outdoor world. [22:59] DaemonFC[m] Mom had been looking and took a screenshot, and Amazon was going to charge her $3 more than Outdoor World, and $8 more than they charged me. ● Feb 15 [23:00] DaemonFC[m] Amazon uses geolocation to figure out when you're in Walmart or Target or wherever, and then they know what price they need to beat. [23:01] DaemonFC[m] I noticed the same thing going on in Walmart Grocery Pickup. [23:01] DaemonFC[m] It's "free" to have a grocery shopper pick up your groceries, but it ends up being 6% more money than going in the store to pick up the same items yourself. [23:01] DaemonFC[m] The pickup fee is hidden because they charge more per item. [23:02] DaemonFC[m] Since you don't go inside, most people never notice. [23:02] DaemonFC[m] This is pretty wicked, honestly. [23:05] *gry (~test@unaffiliated/gryllida) has joined #techrights [23:06] inode DaemonFC[m]: thought of using mocked location data to plot a "price map" for arbitrary products? [23:06] DaemonFC[m] That's an idea. [23:07] DaemonFC[m] The temperature here is below zero and we're getting a foot of snow dumped on us between an hour from now (6 PM) and noon tomorrow. [23:07] *gry has quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer) [23:07] DaemonFC[m] I noticed some restaurants are turning their heat way down. [23:07] DaemonFC[m] The Chinese place had it set to 56 degrees. [23:08] DaemonFC[m] So you pretty much had to eat with your winter coat on. [23:08] DaemonFC[m] Business there does not seem to be great.
