Oh I don’t know anything about the account posting the video lol, I just grabbed whatever clip of that interview between Leto & Kiriakou first appeared in a search

Also Jared Leto’s high school teacher for american government & history classes.

Cheers, helpful stuff & thank you for developing Lemmy!

Building on this, I’d be curious to hear your thoughts on GrapheneOS as a whole. The OS recently bundled a new app “store”/repository, "Accrescent”, along with the usual basic apps like a calculator & camera. On Accrescent, the hardened fork of Signal, Molly, is offered on there. I’ve alsoheard one of the Graphene devs has voiced some chuddy politics.

I’ve still installed & use Molly to chat with my closest friends who I was able to get off of big tech platforms previously used for our group chats, but I have been aware of the RFA/Signal connection for several years (your blog post really ties it together) & I do try to remind these friends about it. Really we just use Signal to shitpost and organize hangouts, so I’m not yet locking myself in a bunker over using it for those purposes, but all this has got me considering building a server & hosting a different secure chat service on it.

I learned about possible Unit 8200 connections with the Matrix protocol within the past year or two, but don’t recall exactly what that entails. I haven’t heard much about Briar, but it being android only would make it a harder sell for getting people to switch over to it, so I suppose that leaves simpleX to proselytize.

Similar issue with contacts who don’t have a picture associated with their info card/page/profile. Stock Android (GOS in my case) sometimes displays the contact’s first & last name initials in a circle (i.e. on the favorites page the phone app) in a color that is nearly identical to the circle’s background color.

Gotcha, I didn’t consider the video call aspect cause my grillings were in front of 10 of my peers where I had to draw out the electron pushing mechanism for how the molecule I was researching produces hydrogen peroxide.

I did get it right after like 20 excruciating minutes standing in front of the whiteboard reasoning out the mechanism, but it was never previously taught to me by my PI.

The livestreamed collapse name is based on some old meme about how the future sucks & the only cool technology we have is some pocket screen to doomscroll the collapse of society & climate with.

I don’t get it?

I’m glad to see more Colonial Outcasts getting posted here, I’ve been enjoying its loose feel a bit like old Eyes Left was. A bit 👁️ that oft-recurring guest Elina Xenophontos follows Jackson Hinkle, but that’s petty stuff.

Is that why the IOF so heavily promotes its vegan war criminals?

I’d like to consider myself a freak with an amazing memory but, yeah, that on the spot pressure/call-outs were especially rough in graduate-level sciences. I get the whole in-situ “determine the limits of your knowledge on the subject” but damn if it didn’t feel like the primary investigator of the lab I was in just saw me as a lab rat to poke and prod for his curiosity when I was presenting research updates.

Also not fun to learn I probably had test anxiety for my entire scholastic career & never had accomodations suggested to me until I was nearly done with my coursework :/

Oh shit, and here I was thinking ‘fuck you rocks’ lying just below the surface were the worst thing a paddler could encounter, not an ambush hervabore’s tusks goring your thigh then pulling you under!

Gundam (but Roman)-ass character names. Seeing it where some audience member has some conversation with Driver during the movie which seems curiously weird

Global achievement recorded in Israel - melanoma incidence rates have declined by 30% among Jewish women and stability has been observed among Jewish men

After a government education program to promote sunscreen use lmao.

Among the Arab population in Israel, melanoma is a rare disease and the morbidity rates amount to no more than a handful of cases.

How do you get the 30% reduction if you’re not as “white skinned” as we’ve been led to believe? Sounds like you’re just thin skinned because you know you’re repeating history.

With the inherent biases present in any LLM training model, the issue of hallucinations that you’ve brought up, alongside the cost of running an LLM at scale being prohibitive to anyone besides private-state partnerships, do you think that will allay conspiracists’ valid concerns about the centralization of information access, a la the reduction in quality google search results over the past decade and a half?

Dr. Spoon’s more credentialed than my washed out academic career; my hating has been defeated by meritocracy!

The ghosties scared me as an 9 year old.

Not to mention meeting standards of purity and formulating your medication so it’s shelf stable and the active pharm ingredient can be distributed within the body effectively once the medicine is administered.

I’ve had similar thoughts as these jokers but with using bioreactors. Each time I conclude that the solution is a centralized manufacturing facility owned by workers to effectively produce at scale (and ensure you don’t poison people).

Sure, you’re not gonna build that misoprostol plant in Texas, but there’s other options to obtain properly-manufactured medication before you drink a mystery brew cooked up by an anarchist squatter named Spoon.

Absolutely, and I don’t see biohackers offering up cheap NMR or MS/MS detectors to solve the common issue of inadvertently making side products like MPTP when attempting to cook up MPPP or whatever, consequently injecting Parkinson’s into yourself. So you’re still bound by the enormous costs of getting an analytical lab stood up, despite using “AI” assisted synthetic software to substitute for real verification of each purified intermediate product. Also my other chem friend & I think that Vinni guy is an annoying ted-talk dude fwiw.

Very cool that they’ve published a FOSS version of in-silico synthetic software plus designed a jacketed reactor (much more convenient than babysitting a round bottomed flask in a mantle for 12 hours), but I can’t see it getting to very high or even mildy low temps.

I don’t see much about cleaning the reactor feedlines or reactant reservoirs, nor how you take a reaction product and work it up, or purify it for that matter, in preparation for the next synthetic step. Classico synthesis traditionally structurally elucidates each step’s purified product with NMR before carrying it forward to the next rxn. But I’m a lazy chemist so I’d prefer to program microbes to make things for me (:

Crap, my third eye is getting tired from having to stare at more and more people. I never would have thought Ian McCollum would be the worst from that little InRangeTV clique 5-7 years ago which Deviant is adjacent to
