the stupidest thing about it is that there already is commercial low sodium table salt, and it substitutes part of sodium chloride with potassium chloride, because the point is to decrease sodium intake, not chloride intake (in most of cases)

otoh E contains active warzone and D two of them or more, depending on how you count

not an immunologist; i don't want to undersell this to you: immunology is fantastically complex subject with many redundancies, feedback loops, and frustrating number of moving parts, many of which are still unknown in sufficient detail. that said, if you want any chance for it to go: first you'd have to figure out what exactly mealses virus does, then you'd have to find a disease that can be cured or treated by obliterating whatever mealses virus is obliterating, and then if there's any match (big if) it'll probably still won't work just with wild type virus and require significant modifications. and even then, that effect as is known in mealses today is not very reliable and lasts only months to years. and even then, there might be other approaches that are safer or more reliable or both

maybe in the course of figuring the first one there will show up an option to modify mealses virus in some significant way that might allow it to target something else, and maybe target other kind of disease, because in no way it'd be a blanket cure for all immune diseases ever. maybe someone made an observational study already that tracked how prevalence of some immune diseases changes after mealses infection, but many of these are rare diseases and it'd be massively hard endeavor

I think it would be comparable to situation where all mRNA is suddenly unusable, ie protein synthesis can't run at all. This would be something like ricin or diphteria toxin poisoning, but instead of being limited to gastrointestinal lining it's spread all over. I'd guess hours to days before anything visible starts happening (symptoms only start to appear when deficit in new protein synthesis becomes noticeable; all protein already made continues to work for sone time)

it wasn't a problem before they started doing this

because it's cheap, easy, compact, well understood, and makes numbers look good. number in question is ratio of energy used by entire facility to energy used by silicon only (i forgor how it's called). alternative is dissipating heat from radiators, but this makes this number like 3. evaporative cooling makes this number closer to 1.2

maybe they haven't clocked that if machine manufacturer is in uzbekistan and cargo transits russia then it'll get disappeared in russia and uzbek order was faked

fwiw sanctioned cargo transit through russia/belarus is banned too for exactly this reason

synthetic dumbass fans five minutes deep into prompting:

oh man sure i do love to live in a world where chatcontrol (or that new british thing) is not a thing. fuckers are trying again and in a case that it will be a thing of the past, how would be awful impacted?

A spokesperson from Colombia’s Ministry of Education told Rest of World that [...] in high school, chatbots can be useful “as long as critical reflection is promoted.”

so, never

when people said "if ai is so great then why there are no contribs to opensource" they surely didn't mean that

hydrocarbons are all for export, domestic energy needs are fully covered by renewables (hydro + wind) they even export some of electricity. https://app.electricitymaps.com/zone/NO-NO2/72h/hourly norway tho is a questionable place for a dc on account of ungodly labor costs
