My favorite little derps

This is why I still come to Kbin, not a drop of this on other social media sites.

Very true but they don’t always win, and besides, there are other lobbyists who are out there batting for Disney. If there is one hint of Micky Mouse™ in their data set they might as well just dissolve the company now.

Yeah I’ve done a tiny bit of AI stuff for what I do (biology) and I think it’s very sus they can build such a strong model out of data which costs lots of money. The reason the algos in my field of biology are so strong is because the NCBI has the genomes of everything that’s be sequenced FOR FREE, because obviously you don’t want people patenting genomes and it should all be free for science, etc.

Which begs the question how the a start up that started out as a non-profit get that much user data and keep costs low? I know you can buy user data and I’m not sure how much it is to buy a bunch of google docs from a data broker, but if you buy from hackers who just data breached or used some illegal crawler you can probably cut that to prices a nonprofit could afford.

I think he was probably lying about where he got all the data used to train the model from, I’m guessing training a model on tons of copyrighted material and stolen user data won’t be legal in the near future.

I think what matters here is that the humidity makes this a wet bulb or something similar to a wet bulb instead of actually an oven. It’s super doom but it’s a slightly different and honestly worse kind.

So trans men are men and trans women are women? Glad we cleared that up.

Where did I say it most likely came from a lab, qoute me right now.

Everything you posted is circumstantial and CVOID is not like the flu in presentation. In fact to compare COVID to flu is conpiratorial in nature so I’m cutting it off with you here.
“It makes it absurd to tie things up nice and simply as “oh, and there’s a virology lab in that city of 11 million people. Must have been a leak”. We have no idea.”
I did not say for sure it came from a lab, I am saying that if it did it probably came from the one in Wuhan, and you even aknowledge that I said the most likely case is pangolins in China, I’m going to just cut it off with you now because unfortunately you contradict yourself way to much and you’re basically stuck in circular logic that it can’t have come from china because you don’t want it to have come from China.
You admit the first report comes from Wuhan, and all the genetic evidence points to it having come from an animal that had to be from asia at the very least, but then do another 180 and say well maybe it was from another place in asia, even though the first reports are from china, then you say I for sure said it was from a lab while I did not say that.

But for the last thing I say let me show you what COVID relatives we are talking about here, in order of how related they are to covid:
-RPYN06- first sequenced in China’s Yunnan provience
-RMYN02 - Also Yunnan province
-PrC31- also Yunan province
These are the closest relatives of COVID, they are ALL from China’s Yunnan province.

Other relatives:
RAtg13 - Also Yunnan province
RshSTT183 - Actually cambodia! only five degrees of seperation!!
RshSTT200- Cambodia too
CoVZC45- Uh oh! China again!
CoVZXC21- China again again
longquan140- China

so yeah, it’s obviously from china. All of is ancestor are from China, except for the two from Cambodia and there’s no contesting that.

Dude I’m a microbioligst, just look at the cladisitics of all the viruses similar to SARS-COIVD-2, it’s undeniable that the virus is from China because of its similarity to that of the viruses in the pangolin and, it’s like saying humans don’t come from Africa, just because 1% is a big deal does not mean that all the genetic evidence shows that ALL its relatives come from China, just as ALL early homo species come from Africa.

From the genetics of the virus we can tell it originally came from either Pangolins or species of bats which are local to Asia only, which is why the wet market hypothesis is so popular in the first place because the virus is 99% similar to that of one found in Chinese pangolins. The 1% genetic difference could come from a lab on accident, but that would most likely be from the Wuhan lab and not for Detrick because the Wuhan lab was in fact experimenting with Chinese bats.

You are wrong, the assumption of people who post this is that there wasn’t COVID-19 in China before the CCP announced it was around.

Yup, this idea only works if you believe what the CCP says verbatim.

Brought to you by the same people who brought you the “spider network”!

Kbin has been working great for me too.

Usually I agree with that but this is such an obvious example of blazen antisemitism that it is newsworthy. I’m sorry but this is on the same level as Henry Ford and Lindberg.

So it’s not some indigenous thing like in the Americas and is just pure evil capitalism? Ugh!

Kbin is probably in the center. I just want to grill in my Linux computer.

Couldn’t they just allow immigration? I get that most people don’t want to move to China anymore but it would probably help. I also know they won’t but would immigration work in a vacuum?
