Wuhan Coronavirus - COVID-19 Analysis & Summary - This is not just fucking pneumonia. It is everything but the kitchen sink. Lungs, heart, kidneys, liver, brain, blood vessels, testes. It affects them all.

@Drain Todger , you have been e- fighting with the windmills from the beginning of this thread until now , which resulted in the growing of your downward spiral/rabbit hole.
My advice for you is to stop making posts on kf and to do some activities outside of the internet (ex.: reading, drawing, exercising,etc.).

Why ruin the fun? Let our resident Don Quixote tilt at all the windmills he wants. He's our True & Honest ponyfucking sailor-janitor turned amateur virologist.

 

[TitoBurrito]

He's actually right regarding the oil rig. It was lab coats fault.

Bc he's been making long posts of his autistic rambling in which i am starting to lose my sanity by reading them.

 

[Sped Xing]

That was your first mistake. Just skim for where he quotes you. Let others do the mining.

Yeah. I think I'm done playing Don Quixote. I'll just show myself to the door.

I think I'm starting to realize that I have an actual life to live, and all I have to do is start living it. I won't find it here, or on SpaceBattles, or any of these other colossal wastes of time.

The internet is a lost cause. It's finished.

You'll never beat the swarms of Facebook normies. The good times are over. The good threads and good banter are gone. It's all shit, now.

Politicians and journalists bleat stupid, ignorant crap on Twitter with zero gravitas or self-awareness, confusing pithy statements with actual statesmanship.

All the news sites are paywalled, fragmenting public opinions. Everyone wants a pat on the ass in the form of a yearly subscription to their shitty, worthless content.

Old Media and Social Media giants have taken turns strangling and savagely fucking the golden goose of the World Wide Web, until every last drop of ingenuity, decency, or human creativity had been wrung from the fucking thing and replaced with bland, insipid trash.

I started my own board, once. I called it Digital Wild West, because I was hoping to try and revive some small fragment of the cool internet I remembered from the 1990s and 2000s, before the rot truly took hold.

I wanted to bring everyone together, people of all political persuasions, in one free speech haven. I wanted the Nazis, I wanted the Commies, I wanted everyone to come together and put their differences aside.

In the end, it was an abject failure, like everything else I've done. People kept right up with the insane tribalism that has dominated our discourse for years. They refused to let it go.

Believe me when I say that you are struggling in vain against a vast ocean of stupidity.

Here's a little ditty I've noticed, especially considering my experience as a sperg.

The longer the farewell post is, the faster the farewell-ee will come back, if they even go away at all.

Also, that high brow scoffing. "I WANTED TO BRING EVERYONE TOGETHER".

David, pls.

Ahahaha! Who are you trying to fool, @Drain Todger? You're not going anywhere.

Believe me when I say that you are struggling in vain against a vast ocean of stupidity.

Yeah well, maybe you wouldn't be such a "vast ocean" if you got some exercise once in a while?

There's still fun to be had on this website, if you aren't a streetshitting attention whoring turbo sped.

 

[Feline Supremacist]

He's actually right regarding the oil rig. It was lab coats fault.

He didn't reply to my post which was about the firefighting and safety regs on the rig itself, not how it was set up or why the well blew. Not going to PL but anywhere at sea there are strict procedures on fire safety and evac, Fires are devastaing at sea whether you're on a boat or on a rig so a lot of those people who died could have been saved. The rig itself was toast.

So, back on topic, I guess - can someone smarter than me explain this?

I'm not a scientist, so I got nothing.

I'm not a scientist, so I got nothing.

The sample size of smokers is small. But lets assume the study rings true. As a smoker I would imagine the tar which coats the lungs inhibits the virus from binding with the ace-2 receptor, lets say you had 2 sets of locks and keys.

Set 1: brand new lock and key set from the shop.
Key fits easily into the lock.

Set 2: well worn lock with spray adhesive on it and key.
Key fits into lock but takes a while to work because you need to jiggle it in, the adhesive makes it a pain to open.

In short the tar fucks with the spike proteins efficiency to gain access to the cell creating a bit of a physical barrier, and when it does the spread is slowed down when replication begins because the cells around it are all coated with tar giving the immune system more time to identify and fight the infection.

I doubt this study is accurate though I think being a smoker would just make you more vulnerable the sample size being so small makes it not really worth taking into consideration.
