@mangeurdenuage do you have glasses? tuned out that i needed a pair and that fixed most of my headaches :)

@swiley .. and then they reminded that they have a comfortable home and a family to feed which they need their safe job for ;)

i don't think we need to plan any revolution with people having alexa etc. as surveillance devices in their home anyway :D

i think it's really the best to focus on how one can build free spaces for himself. society as whole is near unchangeable, it is designed that way.

@swiley then we can abandon all hope. i don't think you can really violently revolt at todays western states. may work in 3rd world countries, because it's uncomfortable enough there for everyone except the big cheese. the west has perfected bread and games :)

@swiley i think that only would lead to you disappearing in a constantly lit cell with nice airconditioning humming 24/7, with you having occasional bi-monthly visiting hours.

just try to build structures that don't rely on the whole government-big company construct. buy local food at small local companies etc. it's better for everyone except those who want control.

@velartrill "have you seen this man?"

@thor hey, if it gets him to the real fingering 💁

@Hawk1291 vivaldi at least has a sane ui, but i'd really like to see something like netsurf getting more push.

@thor wait, you drink booze against the cold? oO

@thor they look for anti_gens_ using anti_bodies_. i can't find a really good explanation now, but this quote may explain it:

> This SARS-CoV-2 Antigen Rapid Test Kit (Colloidal Gold) uses the sandwich immunocapture method and colloidal gold immunochromatography to qualitatively determine the presence of SARS-CoV-2 antigens. During the test, the sample is dropped into the sample well, and SARS-CoV-2 antigens in the sample are bound by colloidal gold-labeled monoclonal anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibodies. These then migrate together to the test area, as the capillary effect draws the fluid up the nitrocellulose test strip. A row of SARS-CoV-2 monoclonal antibodies are coated on the strip at the test area (T line), and these also bind the antigens. The antibody-antigen-antibody-colloidal gold sandwich results in a visible line at the T line, if the SARS-CoV-2 antigens are present in the sample. The quality control area (C line) is coated with goat anti-mouse antibodies that bind the colloidal gold-labeled antibodies, resulting in a visible C line. If the C line does not show any colour, it indicates that the result is invalid, and this patient needs to be tested again.

@thor but those are tests for acute infection, not tests for your immunity! we only know that those with the positive tests are probably immune now, not if the negative tests are of someone who is already immune.

@niclas thinking about automatizing a green house, moving windows and such.. i probably can buy premade stuff for that, but that usually is more expensive and shitty to control yourself as everybody wants to sell complete solutions :)

so probably much torque, few rpm? guess a dc motor with end switches would suffice, but in the end that may be more complicated to control than a servo with controller.

@thor

> and no, it’s not natural herd immunity. the majority of Norway’s population has not had covid-19.

i wonder if this really is the case, nobody has really tested large groups for covid antibodies (at least to my knowledge). given how well it spreads and that most measures only began in march/april 2020, i'd say many might have had it. that's only a guess of course.

@niclas what would you recommend for handeling something which doesn't have to be overly precise? i feel that stepper servos might be the easiest way, but it feels weird using them for something where precision isn't required..
