Given how most films only take a few months to film at most

Got any sources for that claim? I was always under more of an impression that movies took at least a year and a half to make, if not 2-3 for a longer movie.

Do you need to download an anti-virus for Android?

So my workplace is mostly iPhone users and someone asked me what kind of antivirus software I used on my Android, and I said “none” and he flipped out about how unsafe it was. Other people chimed in saying how all androids need antivirus apps and I’ve never heard of such a thing. I do have ad-blockers and a VPN but never...

Windows Defender is antivirus application, though, so how is it evidence that antivirus applications are pointless? Also, Defender wasn’t always as good as it is. That’s only a relatively recent thing.

Also, there are viruses/malware other than rootkits.

Tap water is constantly purified

But unlike a lot of the filling station water, tap water is often not purified with UV or reverse osmosis. (I looked it up and mine isn’t anyway.) So some dangerous byproducts from mining and the like get through.

and the press is ready to jump on it the second it’s unsafe.

Honestly, this is an excellent point I hadn’t thought of.

One of those filling stations? Well for one the water I’m 90% sure is the same tap water anyway …

It is, I believe, but with UV & reverse-osmosis so it’s more strongly filtered than tap water in the end.

… and for 2, do they produce reports every month showing how safe they are like our city water does?

Fair point.

(Also, please be aware that I fully admit I am not knowledgeable on this stuff; I’m just trying my best. So, if I am spouting any misconceptions, I welcome correction as long as it is kindly done.)

they moved away from the supply that you’re on.

As in, that’s what they did before the massive catastrophe that was “everybody gets cancer in the everything”, to paraphrase, right?

I guess what I’m concerned about is if the current purification methods used by my city is not good enough. By that I mean they do all the stuff they should be doing, but by not doing reverse osmosis or UV they let some things through that can hurt you.

I’m worried that by doing everything BUT those latter two, the city could be putting me and people I care about at risk.

Are you saying this is an unreasonable worry? Am I understanding you correctly?

Does anyone know of a half-way decent FOSS alternative to Kega Fusion?

To start off, I just want to say that Kega Fusion is a wonderful emulator for pre–Sega Saturn emulation. However, the fact that it is not open-source concerns me. What if something happens and the person is required to take it down? (Not likely after 14 years but still…) Or hell they just decide to take it down for whatever...
