The most recent research I heard was that human transmission was highly unlikely. It was kind of a big deal and happy news. The experiment involved high prion concentrations and human cells with a long exposure.

A few years ago, there was successful primate transfer, IIRC.

This is something I watch pretty closely.

Best controls are natural predators or heavy hunting to reduce population density.

What denomination, primarily, were you? Did you manage to get anyone out with you? (I was unable.)

Sounds like she can go teach in Europe now pretty easily. She’s got a great story. Fucking slick, if deliberate.

Your cat appears to malfunctioning or maybe stoned. You may want to return it to the factory for service.

The 12 horse noxious fume generator got me.

I’m in these pictures and I accept it.

Goddam. That’s an old, big, reamer. Looks like it’s for hand reaming wood. Modern reamers for metal are very different.

The funny thing is, that’s the perfect tool to ream a bunghole for a good fit for a plug.

This is what happens when you don’t use crypto as god intended: purchasing medication from India and subscriptions to indexers.

Purchase Bitcoin right before purchase. Watch the spare change left over go up and down and imagine all the millions you could be winning or losing.

Just a note on the efficacy of activist messages in FOSS.

In the Aughts, I was learning to play with microcontrollers. PIC microcontrollers were free as well as the JAL language. I ordered a hardware programmer from the Dutch guy who created JAL: Wouter van Ooijen. Probably my first purchase online. There was a statement in the license, to the effect of, the language could not be used to develop arms.

Looking back, that was a turning point for me. I was machining arms for a living and continued to do so for years. It got me to thinking about what it was that I was producing with my hands. Weapons for killing people.

I thought about it a lot. All these things I was making with blood and sweat being used to kill people. Running machines on night shift gives you time to think.

His statement was, at minimum, at least partially responsible for me changing my mind. I grew past the bad religion and far right ideology that I was taught.

I’m going to send him a thank you note.

Did you read the article? If you have a problem with the political messages he is adding to the releases, you’ve probably been brainwashed by a government or a political party. He’s not saying anything controversial, mostly just “Hey y’all, genocide bad.”

The wife and I like what is basically steak sushi. We don’t eat steak all the time, but when we do, it’s minimum sear. Cold center.

We are aware that we run an elevated risk for e. Coli.

We’re handling chicken with gloves until we get a better handle on it.

I really hope the bad old days don’t come back, it’s a real pain in the ass.

Thanks! That’s about how I understand it, as well.

I get from the study that if your beef is properly aged, it should be pretty much impossible.

I had raw milk a few times, as a kid. Dad ended up with a Holstein through a funny trade, had a small Charolais herd. Didn’t care for it, I could taste the weeds. Nothing wrong with some homogenization and pasteurization.

Howdy, Podunk. Rednecks have to watch out on Lemmy.

There is some manipulation happening, my bullshit sensor has pinged more than once. There are also some folks that might be aliens or tankies or some sort of venomous communist/vegan you definitely wouldn’t want to share a free love commune with.

How likely is it that blue rare steak would transmit H5N1, do you reckon? USDA study.

Just point me to the Natalie Portman and hot grits.

Okay, but where is the instance that is trying to model itself after slashdot? (I feel old)

I was sitting around stoned out of my gourd with a coworker (pizza delivery). We were listening to music with the stereo way up and he played this album. He was watching me when it started, kept a straight face through it, died laughing when it got to rabbits wearing glasses. Damn, that’s a good memory.

I like this idea. We’re raising chickens and probably rabbits this spring. If you’re going to eat meat, you should face the reality of the life you are consuming.

It’s totally possible. Like, historically the parallels are spooky.

I don’t have a good feel for the likelihood yet, too early. We may end up with camps, we may just have another four years of slide into shit before the next possible crisis.

I don’t really have a problem with the term. Its frequent usage here is unusual to me. It feels like it’s some sort of ‘tell.’ You hear someone talking about illegal aliens in the US and you know you’re probably dealing with a magat. If they call them undocumented workers, you’re most likely dealing with a leftist of some stripe.

I very well could have a propagandized view of the Zion terms. However, it’s also not something I ever run into in real life.

What country are you from and how would you describe yourself politically?

I’m somewhat familiar with the ADL and their bullshit. Not so much with AIPAC.

Okay, weird. As I said in another comment, I’m middle aged and from the deep South. I have never heard the term used conversationally. I’m not highly formally educated, high school with some college.

This is a great example of what I’m talking about.

What age range are you? What would describe your political alignment as? (For myself, I’m Left, other countries would probably call me a centrist, and the Republicans would call me a radical leftist.) What region are you from?

Are you from the US?
