I’ve been saying it’s endemic for the whole earth for years. Now it’s just another thing to test for (in my area) when people come in for upper respiratory issues along like flu and strep.

GoG provides downloadable, offline, DRM free installers. Put that on whatever physical media you want and put it in the box. It’s much more than they can’t take away your install, they can’t take away your installer, so go ham.
I’m old enough to

If he’d not been a spokesperson and just another cog in the machine, I don’t think anyone would have known who he was. Hell, even without that I don’t think anyone would have known who he was if he didn’t make a ruckus by vandalizing the xlibre wiki. When you have a past like the one Bicha has, you can’t just go throwing stones. Now that it is out there, you can’t unring the bell.
I mean, yeah. I’d rather not run software made by convicted child molesters or people who turn a blind eye to it much the same way i would assume we would also not like to run the lunduke distro. No witch hunt here, can’t change the past. What I’m more worried about is Gnome and Debian being cool enough with Bicha to have him be a spokesperson at their events.
Gnome has enough problems as it is, but this feels like throwing gas on the fire for their public image. KDE plasma is fine for me.
It’s not just an accusation, he’s been convicted. That’s why he’s on the sex offender registry.
This is just a cursory search. Debian says he’s still involved as of April this year, Gnome has him assigned to something as of last week.

He has spoken for gnome, Ubuntu, and Debian in the past. Ubuntu has separated themselves from Bicha. Gnome and Debian have not AFAIK.
Gnome employs Jeremy Bicha as a person convicted of sexual battery of a minor and as far as we know never notified other employees especially at conventions or other employee gatherings.
I’ll stick with KDE
In this case, I’m referring to the baseline or prevalence throughout all of Earth’s population. Whereas pandemic is more like an epidemic that has spread to other contries.
Covid is common now like the common cold, flu, strep. It’s always gonna be with us I’m afraid. I would also believe that most every human has been exposed to the virus at this point.
