The folks who self-identify as DeepMind are promising to wreck protein’s remaining lives by doxing whatever proteins have yet to be doxed. That’s right, folks, DeepMind is promising to release all the structures of EVERY protein known to science, without protein’s consent, no doubt.
The move could hamper the ability of corporations to win the race to patent all the designs of nature so as to assure that only the wealthy few have access to the building blocks that nature ‘created’ without any contributions from these same patent hoarders. That might not be why DeepMind is doing this, but it works for me.
In the last few months Baker’s team has been working with biologists who were previously stuck trying to figure out the shape of proteins they were studying. “There’s a lot of pretty cool biological research that’s been really sped up,” he says. A public database containing hundreds of thousands of ready-made protein shapes should be an even bigger accelerator.
“It looks astonishingly impressive,” says Tom Ellis, a synthetic biologist at Imperial College London studying the…
In a move that has literally shocked no one, China has told the WHO (World Health Organization) that it would prefer not to have any more investigations into the origins of Covid-19 because reasons. That’s right, Chairman Xi is insisting that to do any more investigating into figuring out what led to a worldwide shutdown and millions of dead is no bueno.
The people that Xi lets live and speak on his name have come out and declared the lab leak theory is crazy talk from extremists and stuff. They feign surprise that the WHO would offer this token suggestion, one which we are sure will not seriously be followed up, but one that that had to be made to hold on to any semblence of not being what they really have become, Chairman Xi’s diplomatic soldiers.
China cannot accept the World Health Organization’s plan for the second phase of a study into the origins of COVID-19, a senior Chinese health official said Thursday.
Zeng Yixin, the vice minister of the National Health Commission, said he was “rather taken aback” that the plan includes further investigation of the theory that the virus might have leaked from a Chinese lab.
He dismissed the lab leak idea as a rumor that runs counter to common sense and science.
A worldwide panic happened yesterday when a number of major sites, including Amazon and, gasp, Steam, went down as a result of an attack or a glitch that knocked out some major DNS servers. Fortunuately, we all pushed through and we can now once again play games and buy games online.
Video games, travel, web streaming services, banking, and shipping are among the industries affected by a problem with cloud provider Akamai Technologies, which appears to have taken thousands of websites offline worldwide.
Google, AT&T, Amazon Web Services, Oracle Cloud Infrastructure and GoDaddy domain services were among the companies that started reporting outages on Thursday morning.
Akamai is experiencing a service disruption. We are actively investigating the issue and…

A global survey published today finds nearly a third (31%) of respondents consider the social impact of bias in models to be AI’s biggest challenge. This is followed by concerns about the impact AI is likely to have on data privacy (21%). More troubling, only 10% of respondents said their organization has addressed bias in AI, with another 30% planning to do so sometime in the next 12 months.
The methods of 1776 don’t apply today in our response to modern, and globalist, authoritarianism, but the spirit of unilateral resistance and refusal to be cowed or owned must be reinvigorated among the populace!
In America, both the Democrats and the Republicans seem infected with different strains of the same disease: globalist authoritarianism.
For today’s Democrats, and by this we mean shot-callers not rank file registered Democrats, authoritarianism is sexy and the Bill of Rights or even the idea of America as a Union of sovereign and free Commonwealths, a Republic of Republics, is execrable. They don’t hate America, but they love monopoly power and they do hate anyone who won’t bow before their alt-gendered rainbow gods of wanton depravity and collectivist regimentation.
The bogeymen of the establishment left include racists, “phobes”, clinate change skeptics, cisgendered Christian white males especially, “insurrectionist” white supremacists and anyone on the “right” who isn’t down with the Democrats.
On the other hand, Republicans, again the shot-callers not rank and file registered Republicans, don’t hate justice and equality but they do love the blue-blooded Chamber of Commerce “cronyism over people” riches. They seem to evince a design of corporate monpolozation of the economy and worker exploitation to fatten the few at our expense. They may seem less authoritarian now, being out of power, but they are in fact just as likely to seek a world without competitors.
The bogeymen of the establishment right include “illegal aliens”, “Islamic terrorism”, “communists” who aren’t communists, and anything that hurts corporate profits and the stock market.
On one hand we have woke communism and on the other cronyist monopolism, two sects of the same “religion”, that of globalist authoritarianism, two factions of a ruling class whose aims against the interest, rights, persons, and property of the People are becoming more blatant and unchecked. Where human rights, human dignity, and human flourishing are concerned, the establishment, in both major factions, has nothing to offer but bogeyman fears and fake utopian promises and unworkable schemes.
While there are major surface differences here, the heart is the same. But there is another real difference of substance: today’s Democratic Party has evidently purged all non-authoritarians from leadership while the Republicans still face internal opposition at the leadership level to this spirit of authoritarianism. Basically, the Democratic shot-callers are almost 100% authoritarians while the Republican shot-callers are divided between the ruling class and outsiders who reject the siren call to monopoly power.
While we assess the woke communists as the main and strongest threat by far, we remain skeptical of the Republicans and vigilent against their authoritarian establishment, led by the likes of Mitt Romney and company. The fact most Republican leaders, office holders, and candidates refuse to even name “woke communism” and the authoritarianism that permeates the Democratic Party establishment is seen by many as proof the GOP has settled into a role a controlled opposition for theater only.
Authoritarianism is a growing threat to everything from supply chains and freedom of movement and commerce to individual rights and the good of the people. Policies aimed ultimately at restructuring society in every aspect to be easily managed by the few and for the few at our expense will not produce the monopoly power desired but can cause harm to the innocent caught up by their machinations.
The pushback will likely include political and civic action, but at the deeper level it must involve unilateral freedom-building actions by individuals and groups of people by freewill participation. It is proposed that freedom builders seek individual to local food, energy, health care, education, housing, and true press independency and the transformation of locales into freedom havens through official support of the Bill of Rights. These may be the most important foundational actions needed to begin to turn the tide and transfer power from the center and top to individuals, families, and various types of freewill participatory associations and communities.
In our natural sin state, humans will tend toward corruption and moral depravity against the laws of nature and nature’s God. In our natural redeemed state, when we actively seek God’s standards of righteousness and justice, humans tend toward a family-centered, as in a mother and father with their biological or adopted children, state of individual liberty within a free and pluralistic society of equals.
The one path leads to violence, poverty and ruin as the price for enriching the few and giving them absolute monopoly control over civilization itself. The other path leads to freedom with liberty and justice for all along with a high quality of life and universal opulence.
We don’t see the authoritarians winning, but we do see dark times and crises for those who righteously oppose this authoritarianism and its vehicles of power, including the alt gendered rainbow totalitarianism over culture, the wanton assault on marriage and family according to thousands of years of Judeo-Christian orthodoxy, and the monopoly corporations owning most vital aspects of our economic structure.
Even after the woke communists are vanquished, and unless they are we face a stunning collapse of the quality of life for all save the very few, the work of remaining vigilent against other hazards to our interests, rights, dignity, flourishing, persons, and property as free and spiritually sovereign human beings will remain a necessity.
Two suspects, seen from a video released by police, showed up in an older model black sedan and, at 8:20 p.m., opened fire in the area of 14th and Riggs in Washington DC, hitting two men and letting loose 20 shots before fleeing the scene. The location is within a mile of the White House and the blatant nature of the shooting, as well as the fact no arrests have been made, highlights dysfunctional priorities by local authorities.
Nobody died in the shooting, video of the reaction having been posted on Twitter.
While one man was a target and the other a bystander, neither received life-threatening injuries. Basically, the attackers, likely a members of a gang, cannot shoot straight. Criminals and gangs are being given more latitude because of the dysfunctional priorities of the Mayor and the President, whose focus is on fake threats from a bogeyman all aimed at moving the country toward a one-party police-state, albeit with very little real danger this design will ever succeed.
In June of last year, Mayor Muriel Bowser ordered the extremely partisan phrase “Black Lives Matter” painted on 16th street near the White House, in an effort to discredit then President Trump and while demanding he remove federal troops from the capital in response to Democratic Party operators launching violent riots in the city to further undermine the President. The sedituous acts by Democratic operators have devolved now into a wave of violence which, while not as bad as the 90s, still represents a spike from 2019.
Today the city partially resembles a dystopian totalitarian capital with barbed wire and troops welcomed by the mayor in response to alleged an “threat” to “overthrow the government” from “white supremacists” or “the right” whose actual number in the United States and level of threat pales compared to the violent seditious acts by radical Democrats. The January 6th riot/storming of the Capitol, while reprehensible, has become the “proof” for a conspiracy theory perpetuated by the government itself that is on par with the now infamous false claims that the Spanish sunk the Maine, which led to the Spanish-American War.
The present Speaker of the House, one Nancy Pelosi, is convening a kangaroo-court like “investigation” into the January 6th events clearly aimed at criminalizing opponents of her Party’s authoritarian aims. Through exaggeration and lies, the goal is to turn all Republicans into pariahs and pave the way to one-party rule, transforming America into an alt-gendered, rainbow dystopia ruled from DC, on behalf of billionaire lordlings, by the few at the expense of the many. But while these aims are fantastical and will never succeed, the damage these dysfunctional and anti-American aims can cause may be considerable.
This “white supremacy” or “right wing” bogeyman has been used to justify attempts to silence critics of an authoritarian American administration and to justify the militarization of the capital. But while the President and the Mayor, both authoritarian Democrats, enjoy the robust show of force against phantom threats, the real threats of crimianls and gangs, sadly involving plenty of “black on black” killings, remains an afterthought of little concern to this pair.
A young girl of only 6 years was killed in another recent shooting which has also not resulted in any arrests.
Bowser and Biden continue to bang war drums and bandy about claims of insurrection against anyone who isn’t subordinated to the authoritarian Democratic Party, but they both remain unconcerned about the killings and terror stalking the nation’s capital from a real threat.
It would appear that for Democrats, protecting people from actual threats is a far lower priority than demonizing, delegitimizing, and even outlawing their opponent on spurious grounds and through stoking wild, exaggerated, bogeyman fears of fake insurrections and coups.
Never before, even as real criminals and gangs increasingly control the streets of our nation’s capital, has this country been closer to an actual form of extreme authoritarian dictat from one overwrought and extreme Party as it is now under a totalitarian leaning administration. While the likelihood Democrats will actually create the dictatorship or junta they seem to crave, the fact their priorities are so focused on phantoms and their fears directed toward delegitimizing their innocent opponents is enough to indict the entire Party as an anti-American cabal.
Regardless, the dysfunctional priorities of the Mayor and her friend and authoritarian ally in the White House are causing the needless loss of life and property among the residents of the city.
A contact tracing app telling people in the UK to isolated for 10 days after coming into contact with any Covid-19 sufferers has been keeping some critical staff away from work. This has hit the food industry where some towns have been seeing problems with pricessing or moving food to the stores, resulting in some unhappy customers being greeted with bare shelves.
The pings come when the contact tracing app detects the user has been in contact with someone who tested positive for the virus. This has led some to simply uninstall the app. While over 86% of the population have had at least a partial vaccine and 68% havrbeen fully vaccinated, the new strain called “delta” is getting vaccinated people sick as well.
The 7 day average of new cases is up to 45k per day while at the height of the pandemic in January the the average got to 59k per day. Some 5.6 million people in the UK have had Covid-19 while 129k have died. But the current death rate is far below what it had been with 84 deaths per day being the average while it reached around 1400 per day in January of 2021.
But while the number of deaths is way down, and not expected to appreciably rise, disruptions to supply chains are still likely to occur here and there, as they are in the UK. And the differences can be dramatic, with places like London lacking a few items, like bottled water, while some towns saw a more dramatic supply distribution. There are concerns, however, it could get worse and, as word of the problem spreads, so too does hoarding.
Being prepared in these times requires a set aside of at least a few weeks to a month worth of basic nutrition needa and household supplies as disruptions of the supply chain are unlikely to become a thing of the past any time soon. The impetus for local and home grown food production is becoming greater. Even without a high death rate, outbreaks of the virus, even among the vaccinated, who are far less likely to die, can and will cause problems.
Perhaps one day there will come a space where humans will find it not existentially threatening to pursue what really happened on January 6th, 2021, the day America certified a mass mailer election and a riot, act of sedition, protest infiltrated by antifa, protest staged by the cia, whatever other narrative else is out there floating in the need for it to be true seas, happened as well, as a direct result of the former.
For now, we who seek to walk in perspicacity can only gesticulate as the veracity of the whole circumstance, a circumstance that got real real just now after one rioter, protester, worst terrorist ever, etc, etc, etc, received a sentence of 8 months in prison for their crimes against humanity, the world, but more specifically in violation of somesuch federal codes.
Paul Allen Hodgins, that’s his name, might go down in history as the first patriot to penally fall or the first domino of traiters to fall. The answer to that questioned will be given by the victors in whatever it is that we’re all about at present. Either way, the man is facing time behind bars for 8 months for whatever happened to January 6th that he allegedly contributed to……
One of the January 6th Rioters faced sentencing today for the acts he committed on that significant date in American history. He is the first of scores of people arrested over the course of the past 6 months to be sentenced to jail time.

A Florida man who breached the U.S. Senate chamber carrying a Trump campaign flag was sentenced Monday to eight months behind bars, the first punishment handed down for a felony charge in the Jan. 6 Capitol riot and one that could help determine the severity of other sentences in hundreds of pending cases.
In pronouncing the sentence on Paul Allard Hodgkins, U.S. District Judge Randolph Moss said the 38-year-old had played a role, if not as significant as others, in one of the worst…
Americans are busy defending or assaulting the ties that bind within, but have some reckoning to confront in regards to the wars we fought over the last 50 or so years where a pattern of abandonment of allies has reared its ugly head with regularity. Afghanistan might be perhaps the most tragic of them all in terms of the grim results on our abandoned allies, were it not for what happened to our abandoned in Cambodia.
This move was initated by Trump and followed through with Biden, though his manner of exit might not be as aligned with Trump’s (a detail that might forever elude our objective-seeking senses) exit plan.
The population that might be the most in danger is one identified as being part of the disenfranchised, a class of humans that we should be extra-vigilant in protecting and lifting up, women.

Ben and Jerry have decided that in the competition among coercive enterprises, nation-statism, they will choose which nation-statisms are best nation-statisms, and so to that end they have decided the nation-state of Israel is irrelevent when compared to the potential nation-state of Palestine.
Ben & Jerry’s is going to stop selling its ice cream in the Israeli-occupied West Bank and contested east Jerusalem, saying the sales in the territories sought by the Palestinians are “inconsistent with our values”.
The announcement was one of the strongest and highest-profile rebukes by a well-known company of Israel’s policy of settling its citizens on war-won lands.
The settlements are widely seen by the international community as illegal and obstacles to peace.
