@Greensbean1 @Austin_G_Wilson @humanvibration @PopBase It's going to be unrecognisable in around 1000 years. There's very low oxygen in the water at that depth, preventing rust via oxidation, but anaerobic bacteria are breaking down the iron which is causing the icicle shaped rust formations on the ship.

@tarty_lgb @Mallen_Services @OV_Matter @MBTHEWOLF @PeterHotez Do you know which variant you caught?

[Ben F @fordvento]

@GlenBradley @Bill_LessThan3 @MBTHEWOLF @PeterHotez @ScienceMagazine @hholdenthorp DNA is transcribed using RNA polymerase to make mRNA. The mRNA codes the protein in a process called translation, then the mRNA breaks down. RNA (single sided) is unstable, that's why we have DNA (double sided alpha helix) to transcribe the mRNA.
Where do you think it lives?

[Ben F @fordvento]

@GlenBradley @Bill_LessThan3 @MBTHEWOLF @PeterHotez @ScienceMagazine @hholdenthorp I'm not guessing either. Watch your video. The mRNA enters the cell, then goes into the ribosome and codes a spike protein. Then this is triggers the immune response that makes antibodies. Then when the virus shows up, you already have the anti body and can fight it faster

[Ben F @fordvento]

@GlenBradley @Bill_LessThan3 @MBTHEWOLF @PeterHotez @ScienceMagazine @hholdenthorp There's no mention of rewriting or inserting into RNA. It's literally repeating what I've just said. mRNA is messenger RNA. The "learning" is the antibody that comes as a response to the spike protein that comes from the mRNA transcript.

[Ben F @fordvento]

@GlenBradley @Bill_LessThan3 @MBTHEWOLF @PeterHotez @ScienceMagazine @hholdenthorp It doesn't need to rewrite you RNA. A virus uses your cells to produce proteins from its own RNA, in this case the virus has been removed, and the introduced RNA will code a protein that resembles the spike protein on the surface of the virus. RNA degrades rapidly

[Ben F @fordvento]

@GlenBradley @Bill_LessThan3 @MBTHEWOLF @PeterHotez @ScienceMagazine @hholdenthorp mRNA vaccines use mRNA to produce the spike proteins from the virus, which allows the body to create antibodies that will recognise the virus in the future and trigger an immune response. It doesn't change your DNA, it's essentially introducing a disarmed version of the virus.

@SaveAmerica419 @CCCeceliaaa @chloecandykid @elonmusk Nice strawman. Most countries don't use conscription anymore. Obviously some still do, but it seems pretty stupid to treat that as the norm and not an exception.
Their comment is discussing collaboration across sexes to progress society. You're the one pushing for a divide.

@jaylenwordle @dZaq27 @RitaPanahi Pronouns are related to gender. some cultures had multiple genders, for example egypt had 3 around 2000bc. Bugis society in Indonesia has had 5 genders for at least 600 years.
You can't generalise people based on their political views, as alot of them aren't formed rationally

@NVrondis @DeagoleSme @safechaintoken @DrEliDavid Do you have a source for this at all? I'd like to read up on it.

[Ben F @fordvento]

@darkseagull @jog_bible @DonnySwag @williamlegate @ianmiles It's called "The History and Geography of Human Handedness" , McManus 2009.
It's written at the bottom of the graph.

[Ben F @fordvento]

@darkseagull @jog_bible @DonnySwag @williamlegate @ianmiles This graph doesn't need age because it's a given. You wouldn't live 40 years right handed, and then just decide to be left handed now that it's more acceptable. It would be determined in your formative years.

@DanKalis1 @9NewsAUS How is minimising harm defeating the purpose?
People don't deserve to die just because they've decided to take a pill. This has been trialled at festivals in Aus and around the world and found results to be positive.
Are you against needle exchanges as well?

@SoodyQ @GRDecter @HukAleksandra Apparently the house is worth $4m, an uncle chipped in and an unnamed 3rd party footed the rest

[Ben F @fordvento]

@21blacky @HukAleksandra Cancer is due to mutations usually resulting in a cells loss of ability to kill itself (necessary in cases of loss of functions etc due to mutations)
Creating cancer isn't really anything groundbreaking. You just need a high dose of carcinogens. We've been doing it for years!

@tracied51 @MeghanMcCain So by this logic, everyone plays to the bottom of expectations and nothing ever improves because "WhAt AbOuT wHeN 'x' DiD 'y'?!
He had also already been impeached for soliciting foreign interference in the election, so these aren't really the same

@ReachTRW @Cobratate Hopefully Jesus can come and sort out all this acceptance of other people and different opinion nonsense, get us back to the good old days.

@GavinSauer3 @SpiruSensei @RandomGuyCrypto @MuhannadXE @LayahHeilpern You're right about the outcome, but the scale of time is a significant factor for an ecosystem to reset itself. For example average temperatures in the Jurassic period were above what society is worried about, however there's been multiple mass extinctions since then / full reset

[Ben F @fordvento]

@GavinSauer3 @SpiruSensei @RandomGuyCrypto @MuhannadXE @LayahHeilpern On a long enough scale, yes. Short term you will be eliminating top end longer living organisms (big cats) in favour of quickly reproducing higher adaptability organisms (rats etc), until something else evolves to adapt. Look at old growth forests vs areas cleared for logging etc
