He copied it from another martial arts movie

Yes, John Ashcroft also lives rent free in my mind https://youtu.be/woLQI8X2R6Y

She clearly learned nothing from her NFT grift hobby, which did not turn out well https://gizmodo.com/reese-witherspoon-seems-to-have-forgotten-how-well-her-nft-predictions-went-2000653047

Yeah, being knowledgeable is quantifiable. IQ is wishy washy and easily misused

I think being knowledgeable leads someone to be more liberal than they otherwise would have been. Less inclined to fear the outgroup and fear change. This is why a college degree is so associated with liberalism. I don’t know how well that corresponds to IQ, which itself is kind of wishy washy.

Is the docker repo unaffected?

This is what I worry is the case. Either he is drinking his own kool-aid and doesn’t realize how unpopular these policies are, or he knows there will be no real election. Either scenario is very bad

Yes, I might figure that out if/when Beeper starts to enshittify

Beeper is pretty good. I don’t have it mirror Signal because it kind of defeats the purpose, but works really well to unite WhatsApp, Instagram Messages, FB messages and various other ways people keep in touch with me without having to open the spammy apps involved

Yes it was extremely annoying. Had to dial in and do some very hacky phone code entry. Then it would work for a few months until they tweaked something on back end and it would cut out again. It was a shame as I actually liked Samsung Messages; I know people criticized it as duplicative, but it was cool how it would sync across devices, fit in with native one UI style, etc.

It did have RCS on T-mobile, though it was a bit restricted, couldn’t run on unlocked phones without some dial code tinkering. I gave up on it after a couple years

They discuss in the article

It needs to happen because the MS Edge product manager has to meet some sort of arbitrary user level to get a bonus

it’s not about selling it as a product. it’s about determining what molecular pathways are interchangeable between plants, fungus and animals.

They synthesize a ton of stuff with bacteria these days! Bacteria are really good at making almost any compound you can think of! I think with this study, part of the novelty was harnessing multiple molecular pathways in animals, fungus and plants, all with with analogs in a single plant. A lot of the paper was about discussing the different enzymes available in the plant, like a kind of toolkit that just had to be tweaked

Yes, this is basic research, which generally starts with common model organisms that many labs have access to. This increases reproducibility of the early results. The study mentions expression of the relevant genes and proteins in the buds as well, and also calls out one of the pathways in tomato, so perhaps the next step could be to test it in other nightshades and their fruit

They used an Australian wild tobacco that is widely used in genetic research, so not the American domesticated tobacco https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nicotiana_benthamiana

Yeah, I am glad Minnesotans defended themselves. I just am very concerned about a cycle of mutual retaliation and cleansing getting kicked up.

I don’t think he can unilaterally seize power, because you’re right: not enough Republicans would support such a scenario. But I am concerned he can screw it up enough that no one will be able to accept the outcome. And as we saw with Minnesota, he can make an example of some cities and enrage enough people to trigger broader civil unrest.

I myself am quite worried there will be no election this fall. I am preparing for potential mass civil unrest this summer. But we can’t let these psychos win in advance. They want to live in an autocratic country. It’s important to keep the flame alive
