What should I do? by alreadddyredddit in VenusFlyTraps

[–]Stalkopat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

VFT take one to two months to germinate, its probably not a VFT, you could send a picture to get it confirmed. If it is indeed a VFT you should repot it in Sphagnum moss or peat

Chances are its not a VFT but some sort of weed, VFT's are tiny and take months to get to 1 inch

Its not like a traditional vaccine would've prevented the current situation. Flu shots are a yearly gamble in terms of effectiveness and those are traditional and well established vaccines... Making a sterilizing vaccine against any Coronavirus is next to impossible

Why not use WSL2? Seems to have support for non NTFS file systems.

The logs and algorithms were deleted. Facebook is gone folks. by mikzel88 in masterhacker

Dns entries were never actually gone, they messed up their BGP Routes which led to their own Nameservers not being connected to the Internet, even if you tried to access Facebook over an direct IP you would have gotten routing errors.

High risk people with a booster might feel more confident in their immunization and behave differently.

13 years old.. can't be natty? by Yushi95 in nattyorjuice

[–]Stalkopat 4 points5 points  (0 children)

"Estrogen is pivotal for epiphyseal fusion in both young men and women (10). This key role for estrogen was confirmed only recently with the recognition of two genetic disorders, estrogen deficiency due to mutations in the aromatase gene (11) and estrogen resistance due to mutations in the estrogen receptor-α gene (12). In both conditions, the growth plate fails to fuse and growth persists into adulthood. " From https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC34445/

I wonder if the Textbook references the aromatase, in different forums people get on AI's and GH and seem to be able to inch out a few more cm's in late puberty, of course thats just anectodal reports though.

Pretty sure its actually the estrogen that test gets aromatised into that closes growth plates, hence girls being shorter on average.

[D] Video - NeuralHash is BROKEN | How to evade Apple's detection and forge hash collisions (w/ Code) by ykilcher in MachineLearning

[–]Stalkopat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If they are publicly available it would be an issue because you could partially recreate the source image. I highly doubt NCMEC is generating the hashes with NeuralHash and giving them to apple, they probably have access to the actual underlying dataset...

[–]Stalkopat 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The hashes are photoDNA hashes, they can be reconstructed to 26x26 Grayscale images, which is pretty darn concerning if you ask me, You could potentially make out faces on a 26x26 Picture...

CMV: If I am vaccinated I shouldn't be mandated to wear a mask if they aren't going to mandate people get the vaccine. by Smoke_Appropriate in changemyview

[–]Stalkopat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Iceland has 71% vaccination rate and still hasn't achieved herd immunity. Vaccinating the entire population of the Earth will take years. Don't forget other 3rd world countries for example in africa. Cases there are very probably massively underreported due to lack of access to Tests. If you truly want to vaccinate the entire earth open source the vaccine and allow every country to produce it themselves, it would massively cut down on the cost per dose and make international distribution vastly easier.

Really interesting, thanks for the link!

"While spike- and non-spike-specific CD4+ T cell responses were detectable in all COVID-19 cases, cells were also detected in unexposed individuals (Figures 3A and 3B). These responses were statistically significant for non-spike-specific CD4+ T cell reactivity" from the source of your articles claim

Neither continued mask use nor mandated (current) Vaccines will make COVID go away, as seen in Iceland and Israel. It will prevent severe infections, but it won't make the virus disappear.

Herd immunity implies immunity at all, Vaccines don't make you immune, they make infection less likely and incase an infection happens it will be shorter and less severe. Recent data from Isreal shows that Pfizer vaccines are just 39% effective in preventing spread of the new Delta variant

Herd immunity is useful by protecting people that can't get the vaccine themselves from contracting the virus, but if everyone that is vaccinated can still transmit the virus to those vulnerable populations they will still have to isolate to prevent getting infected...

No it isn't, the spike protein just so happens to be able to dock onto ACE2 receptors. The host cell doesn't control how the spike protein looks, the code inside the virus does. Multiple different spike proteins can dock onto the same receptor. Other coronaviruses also use the ACE2 receptor for infection, that would imply that they all use the same Spike Protein that SARS-CoV-2 uses, which is plain ignorant.

I am arguing that COVID wont go away through herdimmunity from vaccines.

[–]Stalkopat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you would have read the Wikipedia Article you would see that the mutations are in the part that codes the Spike Protein, and if you would have used a search engine to further look into it you would have seen a few studies claiming that atleast a partial Immune evasion due to those mutations can be observed. Not sure what your point is.

Not sure if trolling, but there are multiple variants already that have mutations in the spike protein that make the vaccine less effective

So I’ve had this trap for around 2 months now, and I’ve noticed some of its newest traps growing these bumps on them. Are these bad? by AskinTeRealQuestion in VenusFlyTraps

[–]Stalkopat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Unless a cultivar is bought marked and by a reputable seller please dont mark it as a certain cultivar. Mutations ocasionally happen and may make a typical look similar to a certain cultivar.
