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.

I mean, cellular/molecular biology is applied organic chemistry. It’s all chemical based in some way or another. I guess with T and B cell receptor formations, each receptor binding domain is made totally at random. So much so, they go through training to ensure they won’t attack self and are able to detect pathogen associated molecular patterns. Wildly, most T and B cells don’t pass training and get recycled, more or less.

So maybe, but you’re talking about the world on the cellular level, it’s all based on chemical reactions with environmental stimuli. To be alive requires responding to your environment, and chemistry is how that works at the microscopic level.

Immune cells form from stem cells. From start to finish in the stem cell differentiation process, four major changes occur. Some of these changes can have up to four potential outcomes each. Here’s a map:

While all cells react to their environment based on environmental stimuli and feedback loops, even bacteria and archaea, this is a great example of cell differentiation. All our cells started as stem cells, but the immune system’s continuous and consistent use of the process is very unique. It’s also the most elaborate and the image is surface level. Most the end cells pictured here will become more specific. Like there’s many different T-cells, even T-cells which change so much they don’t meet the classification of being a T-cell. The CD16 T-cell is a great example of this happening.

I feel like this is what you were looking for, but I’m not totally sure.

Ok, so voting in mass won’t do a thing? At the moment, more than 50% of registered voters are over 50 years old. With an average life span of 72 years in the US, that’s folks 70% through life, at best on average. Getting everyone 40 or below registered and voting would change the game as we know it. But sorry for trying to game the system…

The only way to change this decrepit system is to vote in such numbers we flood the voting booths. If Jill Stein or Cornell West have any shot, this is what has to happen to get them in office.

Basically couldn’t have come any later really. They’re already coming out the gates scrabbling with just 3 months and change until voting starts.

Android user? Graphene looks like it’s worth the setup process more and more. Pixels are the only Google product worth while thanks to Graphene really.

Just like the link in the iOS section, there’s a link in the Android section. Both were in the first sentence, I believe. But I had to give the article another once over to find it.

I mean, the doc’s are available through the link. But here’s some screen grabs:

AFU: After First Unlock

BFU: Before First Unlock

BF: Brute Force

FBE: File Based Encryption

FDE: Full Device Encryption

FFS: Full File System

They were arrested for a violent protest that resulted in setting fire to a construction site which was building temporary housing for asylum seekers. Seems pretty straight forward they were protesting the state helping those seeking asylum, no?

Only portions of the code are published while the rest is kept under wraps. Classic corporate America bs finding a loop hole to use a trendy term.

Just to be clear, Gemma is only partially open sourced in select area’s of the code.

Ok, interesting, thanks for the correction. Do you think rephrasing my statement and stating Linus’s kernel is more adaptive would be more accurate?

Stallman’s attempt to rename Linux to incorporate the GNU name not happening was frustrating on his end it seems. Everytime someone calls their system a Linux based OS and not GNU/Linux based OS downplays the work he put in. However, Linus’s kernel was more elaborate than GNU Hurd, so it was incorporated. It’s said Stallman is a visionary, while Linus is a programist. While there’s never been any display of tension in a back and forth between them online, it’s always seemed to me they appreciate and also despise various aspects of each another.

Oh, the leading scientific hub worldwide doing scientific research brings you dismay? Must suck to hear anything science related then…

While it’s not an eReader, Alexandria in F-Droid is amazing. It allows you to download books from LibGen as well as convert the books into a different format if needed for whatever eReader you select. Definitely a nice app to pair with your new eReader!
