[03:11:01] <tedious> Do you mean add the covid spike proteins to those shots?
[03:13:41] <AzumaHazuki> ...i had MMR shots before beginning at the hospital last October. Twice, since the first one showed no mumps reactivity

[03:15:46] <tedious> Are there any vaccine makers that aren't huge corrupt megacorps?
[03:16:38] <tedious> As far as I can tell there's no way to do the right thing by voting with your wallet and saying you only want vaccine from non-evil companies.
[03:18:15] <tedious> I can't see how moderna is any better than pfizer or jnj merck.
[03:18:31] <tedious> So how are we going to get out of this mess if we can't even choose the lesser evil because they're all super evil?
[03:20:06] <t3> it's pretty much required to be a huge corp to be able to afford to do the research necessary to develop vaccines
[03:20:39] <tedious> Maybe for new ones but tetanus isn't exactly a new disease.
[03:21:02] <t3> they also have to get government approval, which requires lots of lawyers and bureaucracy
[03:21:19] <t3> and years of testing

[16:21:38] <Runaway1956> I've never had any reason to be concerned about a Trusted Platform Module
[16:21:48] <Runaway1956> Windows 11 has made me curious though
[16:22:06] <Runaway1956> Ran some tests on my machine which were inconclusive
[16:22:30] <Runaway1956> Went to the motherboard manual, and I've learned that I have a plug which will accept a module
[16:22:37] <Runaway1956> but the module isn't there
[16:23:17] <Runaway1956> jtpm1 - I haven't looked close enough to see how many pins the plug has
[16:23:22] <requerdanos> "trust" and "secure" in windows world are generally synonms for "DRM"
[16:23:46] <Runaway1956> very true - I don't want one, but at least I know what I don't have now
[16:27:51] <Runaway1956> I suppose that means, if you buy a computer with TPM, and you don't want it, you might be able to unplug it and toss it in the junk drawere
[16:29:55] <requerdanos> until it comes out that manufacturers can save 1.2 cents by soldering the thing to the board and skipping the socket

[21:25:57] <AzumaHazuki> you know, i was warning people ages and ages ago we're going to lose roe vs. wade and everyone just shrugged at me

[21:58:02] <FatPhil> AzumaHazuki: How heartbeaty is a 6-week-old anyway? Is this just some theoretical "it has an organ that should be doing something at that time" or can it show in non-invasive scans at all?
[21:58:31] <AzumaHazuki> at 6 weeks it's barely a slice of self-discharging cells
[21:58:42] <FatPhil> this is what I wonder.
[21:58:58] <FatPhil> at what point would an ultrasound show a beating organ?
[21:58:59] <AzumaHazuki> this whole thing is a power grab and the Supreme Court has been the focus of the loonie right since long before i was born. well, they won. it's a matter of time before things get really, really, really ugly
[21:59:19] <AzumaHazuki> i'm not sure actually, but it wouldn't be at 6 fucking weeks, and the legislators know this. this isn't about "saving babies" and never was
[21:59:30] <FatPhil> if you need to go invasive in order to prove that she's a witch...
[22:00:01] <FatPhil> Ah, I think you missed my previous anagram...
[22:00:23] <FatPhil> the texas heartbeat bill = a threat - exalts the bible (anagram)
[22:00:30] <AzumaHazuki> this was always about controlling women, and is one part of a larger strategy to do an end-run around 1) demographic change (read: more non-pureblooded white folks, i.e., non-GOP voters) and 2) checks and balances
[22:00:56] <AzumaHazuki> we need to cut the South off. Evacuate anyone who doesn't want to be there, rename it MAGALand, and close off all trade and contact with them
[22:01:04] <FatPhil> The correlation between equivalent legislation and bible belt is strong.
[22:01:35] <FatPhil> I think I saw a map with about 8-10 states marked on it, and it was very Jesusland-centric
[22:04:04] <FatPhil> One of the Dakotas was the outlier, IIRC.
[22:04:24] <AzumaHazuki> "Jesus"land. These people would not recognize Jesus if he smacked them across their fat sweaty MAGA-hatted faces hard enough to leave a big red angry handprint with a size 98 nail hole in it
[22:04:29] <AzumaHazuki> they would demand he be thrown off a plane with them
[22:04:48] <AzumaHazuki> and the "prosperity gospel" is the precise opposite of what Jesus (is said to have) taught
[22:06:04] <FatPhil> G/f has not-so-distant relatives who have bought into that shit, and the full faith healing bollocks.
[22:06:18] <AzumaHazuki> well, natural selection's a bitch...
[22:07:15] <FatPhil> Yeah, unfortunately we're the "No Future!" suckers who have decided to be childfree. So the godsquad loons will breed, and we won't.
[22:07:21] <FatPhil> Blame idiocracy on me.

[22:08:31] <chromas> I already do
[22:11:36] <AzumaHazuki> FatPhil, what the zero-sum "hurr hurr you have no future" types miss is that there are worse things than having no future
[22:11:42] <AzumaHazuki> like living in the future created by their kind
[22:11:49] <AzumaHazuki> the living are going to envy the dead in short order
[22:15:00] <FatPhil> Don't confuse me for a zero-summer. Very very very easy to contrive lose-lose in this game.

[22:22:58] <AzumaHazuki> it seems like the country just needs to learn this lesson. the problem with that of course is that the people who need to learn the lesson won't, and innocent people--as always, mostly poor, minority, or poor minority--will suffer most
[22:23:04] <AzumaHazuki> not least because that's the entire intention of this bill
