Like when you're trying to focus on a book late at night or something. A few hours later I had a slight cold sweat that went on for maybe an hour.

[19:27] -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-techrights.org | SCOs Darl McBride is Finished (Bankruptcy) | Techrights [19:28] DaemonFC[m] MinceR is right to be skeptical of Orban's plans. The live attenuated virus ones and the Ad5 ones are turning out to be much less effective and potentially with more risk. [19:28] DaemonFC[m] But I'd have the same concerns over Johnson & Johnson's, which is about to be approved under EUA here in the United States. [19:28] DaemonFC[m] If it was the best I could do, I'd probably bite, but it's not. [19:29] DaemonFC[m] The big difference in the tech is how many steps to get the spike protein mRNA into your cells. [19:30] DaemonFC[m] And the J&J one uses a genetically modified adenovirus to do this, sort of like Sputnik or the AstraZeneca one that turned out to be mostly crap against at least one particularly alarming new strain. (South Africa) [19:31] DaemonFC[m] MinceR: How many steps does it take to get to the mRNA in my cells? "I don't know. I've never made it without biting. A one, a two, a three." *crunch* "Three." [19:32] MinceR :) [19:33] DaemonFC[m] It seems like, if anything, the doses may be too much. So instead of looking into one dose of Pfizer to get more people something, they should pare it down like 10% and then they get 10% more doses. [19:34] DaemonFC[m] I'm not a doctor, but to me it sounds like the simplest solution is the one least likely to go wrong. [19:34] DaemonFC[m] And having a real GMO virus deliver the mRNA payload complicates things, which is almost never good. [19:35] DaemonFC[m] So the direct mRNA vaccine platform is pretty exciting, although this is obviously not what anyone wanted. It does give us a large scale test to see if the assumptions hold. [19:35] DaemonFC[m] I was sort of grossed out by how Pfizer and Moderna grow the mRNA, though, MinceR [19:36] MinceR how did they do it? [19:36] DaemonFC[m] They apparently get E. Coli bacteria to clone it and then they kill the bacteria and grab it out of them and then purify it. [19:36] MinceR i don't see anything wrong about that [19:37] DaemonFC[m] No, I didn't say it was wrong, I just said it's gross sounding. [19:37] DaemonFC[m] Because we all know where you find E. Coli. [19:37] DaemonFC[m] :P [19:37] MinceR many places? [19:37] DaemonFC[m] Mostly the intestines of warm blooded animals.

[20:00] DaemonFC[m] Because nobody will tolerate mass breakage of programs. [20:00] techrights-bot #Broadcom VK Accelerator Driver, More Intel #ACRN Code Arrives For Linux 5.12 - Phoronix https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=Linux-5.12-Char-Misc #Phoronix #Kernel #Linux [20:00] -TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-Broadcom VK Accelerator Driver, More Intel ACRN Code Arrives For Linux 5.12 - Phoronix [20:01] DaemonFC[m] It would make more sense for them to buy Intel and turn it into a hardware division, but I think antitrust regulators are still going to take a dim view if they tried. [20:02] DaemonFC[m] Linus Torvalds seems to have underestimated Intel again. [20:02] DaemonFC[m] They put out the disastrous Skylake platform and lost Apple's business, and they still managed to double the stock price in the last 5 years. [20:03] psydroid buy Intel and make x86 emulation work flawlessly? wouldn't that be like buying Nokia's phone division all over again? [20:04] DVulgaris Yup [20:04] DaemonFC[m] Microsoft is already an ARM licensee. Intel is what's standing in the way of implementing a lot of x86 ISA helpers and software emulator features. [20:04] DaemonFC[m] So if you could just kind of fuse that together somehow... [20:04] DVulgaris It's not just Intel [20:04] DaemonFC[m] Apple's doesn't have to work right. [20:05] DVulgaris x86 is a cross-licesense mess [20:05] DaemonFC[m] People will buy them anyway, and Apple will pressure developers to ditch x86 Macs at some point, which is why the resale values have plummeted. [20:05] DVulgaris Intel, AMD and VIA are the x86 cartel - just that they also want to kill each other [20:06] DaemonFC[m] Remember when they sold this lie of oh just go ahead with your PowerPC investment. We'll support you indefinitely.....zoink. [20:06] DaemonFC[m] Nobody believes them this time. x86 Macs have another 2-3 years, maybe. [20:07] DaemonFC[m] Right now there will be compatibility kludges, but then Apple will rip it away to force upgrades, and people will be annoyed but they want to flaunt how much they fawn over Apple. So they'll get in line. [20:07] DaemonFC[m] So the only real value in a used x86 Mac is if it can run Linux, because it'll be all it does shortly.
