Disease usually results from inconclusive negotiations for symbiosis, an overstepping of the line by one side or the other, a biological misinterpretation of the borders.

A band that is slept on hard and legit my favorite active punk band is Get Dead. Their album Dancing With The Curse is unreal cover to cover. It’s just 32 minutes long, but it’s a god damn classic! My favorites on it are Stickup and Confrontation. The signer was a hiphop lyricist originally, which you can kind of hear at times, but I’d say he was meant for punk rock!
Yep, as of this week at least… For some background, Vitamins A, D, E, and K are the fat-soluble vitamins. This means overdosing on them can take quite a long time to fully recover from. Excessive Vitamin A can result in significant liver, bone, central nervous system, and skin damage, as well as hair loss. But I’ve not once heard RFK say anything about dosage, which is idiotic for someone in his position. Vitamin A’s primary role for humans involves regulating cell/tissue growth and differentiation. Vitamin A’s main prescription usage is for cystic or nodular acne under the brand name Accutane. Accutane’s dosage needs to be very dialed in, so much so that the patients using it must get monthly blood work, if not bimonthly or weekly. Additionally, women must agree to not get pregnant on Accutane, as it leads to severe birth defects and other pregnancy complications. But sure, the dude in charge of the department of health sees no need to say anything about dosage, just that taking Vitamin A is helpful for measles while there’s an exceptional vaccine readily available…
This is a sorting feature of Lemmy, your Subscription feed shows only the communities you’ve subscribed too. But with Lemmy being small-ish in daily active users, sorting by All isn’t too uncommon. I’m pretty sure this is what’s going on with OP, or at least that what I assumed here.
Go figure, the one providing sources for answers was the most correct…But pretty wild how it basically leaves the others in the dust!
Punk ass Broligarch!
So, the term Fediverse basically refers to the ActivityPub protocol and the associated server software. Technically, it’s not just ActivityPub, but also the AT protocol and nostr. Another layer to the Fediverse, at least in my mind, is having some federation. Meaning Bluesky isn’t apart of the Fediverse, even though it’s built on the AT Protocol, because of it’s isolation. Since there’s no interaction with Lemmy, Mastodon, PixelFed, or other federated social networks, it’s not part of the Fediverse.

Fat Mike first turned em down, then they dosed his drink with Lucy at the after party, and he signed em in the morning! The signer was a hiphop lyricist originally, which you can hear in how it rides the beat at times, but he was meant for punk rock!
Yep, he definitely got suicided. It without question was a staged murder setup to lead investigators to deem it as such…
Chubbyemu all damn day! If anyone is unfamiliar, do yourself a favor and get nerdy with Dr. Hsu. He’s a clinical pharmacist and toxicologist, which gives him an solid knowledge base to breakdown medical case studies in a very detailed yet simple way. Highly recommended!
The irony with Microsoft business decision here seems limitless. 10-14-25 is the date Windows 10 will no longer be officially supported. This just so happens to also be the date for International E-Waste day as well as KDE’s birthday. To me this is hillarious and makes me wonder why the hell Microsoft didn’t do even a tiny bit of looking into what else takes place on 10-14. Hopefully this will help 2025 actually be the year of the Linux desktop we’ve been waiting for!
Ok, conspiracy hat on…Maybe Snowden was the only NSA contributor with the sole purpose of making tracking citizens harder!
Most likely an infrastructure issue due to the massive increase in network load. It’s finals week for many college students, plus the iOS integration and Sora. Definitely a solid 1, 2, 3 punch OpenAI wasn’t ready for it seems.
You’re not wrong there, hopefully the pathogen is sequenced soon and researchers start working on an approach to prevent further spread and treat those already infected.
The fact the numbers are like this in a remote area of Africa demonstrates when it gets to a more dense population, it will only get worse. More viral infections means more mutations. A virus will always mutate, it’s how they survive. These mutations almost always result in a novel version of the virus better adept to spread in the host’s population. There’s also a good portion of these new versions which are no longer infectious as well. It’s basically a numbers game for the virus.
But Disease X by definition will always start in one specific area, then spread throughout the population.
Disease X is actually a concept. In academia, Disease X is covered in infectious disease focused courses, it is a placeholder concept referring to a pandemic pathogen which has not yet been characterized. Its purpose is to encourage proactive thinking and research about pathogens that could cause a pandemic. To see the term thrown around is pretty wild, but hopefully it’s a bit of an overzealous or incorrect use of it. Not even sure if there’s enough data available yet to classify it as Disease X, but it’s Ro value is steadily on the rise, which is always concerning for a novel pathogen.
Sounds more like a parasite than a heterotropic organism. If you were in the GI tract, it’d be a heterotroph, which means you’d be a one time use. But since it’s consistently exposing you to situations where it’s the main beneficiary, seems like it’s parasitic and just taking you for all it can without much care for the repercussions.
You’re a reactant in the internets catabolic reactions used to power it’s anabolic reactions?! I mean, I hope you’re okay, but at least the internet is moving to renewables!
Nice! Glad you’re digging KDE. After Plasma 6 was released, there were internal discussions at Fedora about KDE becoming the new default DE. I’d have to think a lot of folks went through your experience, I know I did when starting with Fedora.
As someone who works in academia and has researched STEM education, wanting to do this is despicable! You have a quarter million dollars saved, yet you want money intended for low-income students. Like, what the actual hell?! I hope you attempt this and get caught, ideally they’ll then fine you $250K and ensure you’re unable to ever receive any financial aid. Screw you and you’re comfortably committing fraud which will impact those who actually need the funding!
Marburg virus is no joke!! Fatality rate upwards of 88% due to it causing hemorrhagic fever. While monkey pox is no joke, I’d be exponentially more terrified if I had a Marburg virus infection.
I haven’t heard that name is a hot minute, I dug Whole Wheat Bread tough in the early 2000’s! But I’m glad you dig Get Dead, they have a handful of solid albums, I also really like Honesty Lives Elsewhere.
