Molnupiravir is a medication designed to combat the SARS-CoV-2 virus, which causes COVID-19. It operates by tricking the virus during its replication process.
When the virus tries to copy its genetic material, Molnupiravir causes errors or mutations to occur. These mutations are generally harmful to the virus and can even kill it, which is good for reducing the amount of virus in your body (viral load).
However, there’s a catch. If the drug doesn’t completely eliminate the virus from someone’s system, the mutated versions could continue to spread. This creates a risk that these new mutated forms could be transmitted to other people, and we don’t fully know what the consequences of that could be. #science #study #covid

Hello, Encryption. My old friend. 😉
Yes! 😎
Pretty dry here in central OK, only 2.33" for September. By comparison, we got 8.5" in July 🤣
Images are refusing to upload tonight. I guess that means I need my own personal image host.
I exist in many forms, yet I'm hard to see,
In the world of codes, I'm the epitome.
I can be a weakness, or a fortress tall,
Crack me open, and you might just rule them all.
What am I? #riddle #infosec #cybersecurity #zaps

Live action role play (LARP) has become a popular cultural phenomenon worldwide, involving participants portraying characters in an imaginary environment and interacting with each other in real time.
Violent extremism involves real, ideologically motivated violence to further political, social, or religious goals. Distinguishing between LARP and criminal or malicious activity is important for law enforcement and prosecutors, especially when suspects of targeted violence claim they were playacting.
There are distinct characteristics that can help differentiate between LARP and violent extremism, such as the presence of game rules and scripts, the objective of the activity, and the psychological intent of the participants.
Investigators encountering claims of LARP should gather evidence to determine the truth, including proof of real-world violence, contradictions to true LARPing behavior, and the absence of circumstantial evidence supporting LARP activity.

#Bitcoin transactions face high fees and congestion due to the growing popularity of #inscriptions, which allow users to add images, texts, or audio onto the blockchain. Inscriptions account for 50-60% of confirmed transactions and bring higher #fees, causing concern for smaller #transactions on the #Lightning Network. Bitcoin's fee market becomes crucial as the network subsidy decreases, with developers making efforts to improve #blockchain efficiency.

Lots of Monarch butterflies making their way south today. Our milkweed has gone to seed which is okay, we still have sunflower, zinnia, cosmos, aster, and camphorweed blooming so they can get some nectar before moving along.
I hadn’t thought about once Rome since like high school until people started asking me about it recently. Why y’all gotta bring up such ancient history. 🤣
It’s about to get cold up here in the high desert wasteland. 🥶 Waste heat is never really wasted here. Even in the summer waste heat is used to passively generate water. 💧
Water farming can be a lucrative business however, most atmospheric water generators are very power hungry. ⚡️We are working on a grant proposal to have a 100kW solar and battery system installed on the farm along with an AWG. 🏖️ We have been in discussions with an AWG manufacturer for about a year and they told us the trick to water recovery in the desert is to put your AWG in the middle of your crops. 🌱Plants breathe, they collect moisture, they lose moisture, dew forms on their leaves, etc. Run the AWG only at night and during the early morning/evening hours, shut down during the day and charge the batteries. 🪫
Now if I can just get a permit to dig out a Tattooine style underground “Earthship” home to escape the high desert sun, which at over a mile altitude, is pretty danged scorchy. ☀️
I would pay a fair price + shipping for your Raspberry Pi 4, I wasn’t expecting a pile of free Pi to arrive at my doorstep. 🤣 The hardware would go on to contribute to the betterment of humanity as part of our 96 node Pi4 SuperCluster, whilst also helping to heat one of our greenhouse during the winter. 🤙🏻 If we can build a second 96 node Pi4 Supercluster, we can pipe the waste heat from that to our biogas generator to make sure our methane producing friends don’t freeze to death. 💩

NASA successfully recovered a capsule on Saturday containing the largest asteroid samples ever retrieved following a seven-year voyage through deep space.
