@mcnado @freemo After reviewing the CDC reporting, the complications possibly caused by infection would result in the stated cause of death to be from COVID-19. It further points out that the long term effects resulting in death would be considered a COVID-19 death.

The situations leading to death weren't properly addressed. Regardless of proper classification, the likely damage from the virus was rightfully included. I suppose I was expecting ARS to be the cause of the deaths and, to a lesser degree, cardiovascular issues.

It seems more inclusive for contributing factors of a COVID death but not necessarily represented correctly. The car example was dismissed incorrectly. According to the guidelines, if COVID-19 contributed to the circumstances then it would indeed be reported as a COVID-19 death even if the subject could have lived if they weren't driving. It's these small things that make me question the data.

Cause, Contributing factor and the Others should be separated. It sounds like the virus directly killed so many people. It just seems misleading to call them all COVID deaths when it would be better to describe them as Covid and common complications deaths.

@freemo That's impressive.

@freemo @mcnado The Death Data was falsified by some facilities due to the financial assistance offered to assist with the additional money spent on combating covid. It was fraud and elderly care facilities were able to get away with it. A family friend died from Alzheimer's and he was reported as having died from COVID around 2 months later. He was cremated. My family reported it but it fell on deaf ears.

About the data for Medicine, I've made Mathematical models for outbreaks. I'm not an expert at it but we would have to limit variables and environmental factors. Even then it would take about as many revisions as a TeX document to get some level of accuracy. Then again with so many limits on data, I couldn't consider it accurate.

With actual data it could prove useful. The long term effects of COVID are not known, the long term effects of the jabs are unknown and the combined effects of both are certainly unknown. Is it actually important? Nope. The data will be collected and processed anyway thanks to our benevolent government.

@freemo I appreciate it. I'll have to try one or a few out.

@mcnado @freemo It did spread for a few years and took out the most susceptible.

Long term data would be nice even if it's blatantly falsified like the death data.

We can't have a control group because nearly everyone was exposed. We don't have a healthy non jabbed group because the government and the public persecuted these people.

Being in the latter group, it's difficult to show empathy as anything other than mockery. Problems quoting inaccurate data? Corruption dragged its fat sack of influence and manipulation over your profession. Medicine will have to regroup and reform to get back to some level of integrity. That's going to be a long fight.

@freemo Do you recommend a specific model of key?

@skyblond It should have it. It would need to be processed to be visible but there should be a setting to take a jpeg of the same picture at the same time.

RAW isn't a better camera but so much can be done in processing that the quality is night and day. The raw image format is essentially a data dump from the sensor so it includes everything. The Camera2 API makes this functionality available if it's not in the default photo app.

@skyblond I started using the Camera2 API in Android to take raw images years ago. I got an OP Nord and the pictures were the most disturbingly melancholic images I've ever seen. I just use Open Camera from F-Droid to avoid that or I try to find the Pro settings on a Samsung to get RAW images.

The S23 was impressive. I remember trying the burst mode at max speed. It was under an LED light and I could see the fluctuation of 60Hz in action. I did the math and found that a 45acp fired 10m away from me would lead to several photos of the bullet in flight before exiting my FOV.

I also remember the fake Moon. Never forget the fake Moon.
