Good to know ... my case is more dramatic, with some extra suffering
Perhaps virus mismatch explains this, so in my case it's a "true" Smile | :)

Exactly the same for me.

Sorry for your loss. I had a friend that passed Christmas week of 2021. His last Facebook post said this "Covid is no joke". His girlfriend chronicaled the next few days until he passed. I'm assuming, so take it for what it's worth, based on his US politics he was unvacinated. He was a good guy.

The US is not the only country with people claiming that COVID is an invention to make us give in to the elite that ideated it or other ~~stupid~~ original conspiracy theories

Dunno, I got my antibodies the old-fashioned way. It was rough, but I'm fat and out of shape. Outside scares me. Donuts don't.

Which means that you did not notice perhaps next infections, right ?
In this case it is indeed a "false". Remarkable, it seems that my case is an exception, so far.

Given the highly sensitive nature of this discussion I'm not sure if that implies condemnation or not. Sorry, if that's not what you meant. I've spent too much time on FB, and I'm not a better person for it. Blush | :O

But, I've only gotten sick once, not too long ago. Believe it was the Omicron variant. I haven't been sick since and stopped washing my hands and caring about a mask ever since then because antibodies baby! Or I suppose, more accurately speaking, I've never felt bad enough to warrant taking another test to see if I was infected again.

I had 4 shots, last one about 6 months ago, and it hit me 3 weeks ago like a ton of bricks. I was still functioning (and coding!) but it was a fairly horrible 3 days, followed by an annoying week, followed by another week of sniffles and cough.

Worse than any flu I've had, most definitely.

Yes, this looks similar indeed, perhaps vaccine mismatch, fast mutations of the virus ...

Don't worry. If you don't see things the profiteering way, there will be re-education camps you can go to soon to make sure you think the accepted way. Roll eyes | :rolleyes:

Can you demonstrably prove the outcome in either case?

That's really the problem.

Yes, we had 200 lbs of reference manuals, and life was simpler.

I just finished a whole bunch of googling to figure out how to bulk copy an archaic Access DBF file into SQL Server, using .NET 7. My comments in the code show some of the depth of the rabbit hole.

// Need to download the Microsoft Access Database Engine 2010 Redistributable for the 64 bit version of the Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB driver.
// Unless you already have the 32 bit version installed, you can't have both, so you would have to uninstall any 32 bit apps, in my case, Visio and FrontPage!
// This appears to work, from SO: use the provider to "Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0;" in connection string.
// But it doesn't because the DBF files are so old, so we're back to using Jet.OLEDB and building the importer app as a 32 bit (x86) app.
// And I finally can import the data!

And yes, I still use FrontPage for article writing and I'll be damned if I'm going to uninstall it and Visio 2010 to install the 64 bit Jet drivers, so now my importer app is in x86 mode.

And stunningly, the .NET SqlBulkCopy thing is working perfectly.

I guess that you are not using the same mainboard, disk, keyboard and screen as you did in the 1900s. So what happened to that machine? Or, I suppose, those machines that you have replaced. Didn't you keep keep any of them for running old SW? (and for that sake: HW. I've got several pieces of hardware that cannot be moved to my current machine for lack of interface / bus.)

Yes, and several are still sitting in my shed. None earlier than W95, it would be amusing to fire up Windows 3.1. Or a DOS box. I wonder what happened to the PDP/11 that I cut my teeth on (not literally) when I was in 7th grade.
