Like seriously, did you really think you could suppress my posts with these rules???? I'm going to continue to post informative posts to the proletariat while still abiding by your restrictive rules until your day of reckoning comes and we're no longer suppressed for having our own thoughts and ideas.

I want to talk about Venus but I don't know a lot about it except for some video I watched years ago about how 2 engineers came up with the idea of floating cities that could sustain life on Venus.

Venus' athmosphere has loads of sulphuric acid and carbon dioxide but apparently we could bomb the planet with hydrogen bombs to make graphite and water from the reaction with the CO2.

Also, at 464C, we'd probably be burnt pretty bad and squashed down because we would be like 90 time heavier. 1 day is 117 earth days so can you imagine how long a typical work week would be?

Even with all of these negative points, I would still prefer to live on Venus than to be stuck here, forced to adhere to these ridiculous rules that attempt to keep us oppressed so that the 1% can live all fancy in their castles and eat their fancy cheeses

Macrophages play a role in both innate immunity and adaptive immunity.

In innate immunity, they phagocytise the pathogens and they also release cytokines that promote the recruitment of other immune cells to the site of infection. Some of these cells are Natural Killer cells and basophils but they don't start with M.

In adaptive immunity, Macrophages have the ability to breakdown the pathogen and find specific markers on the pathogens that can be used as a target by the adaptive immune response. This marker is called an antigen.

They then take the antigen and present it on a receptor called MHC Class 2. This MHC Class 2 basically holds the antigen while the Macrophage makes its way to a lymph node, where T Helper cells are located.

The T Helper cells can then analyse the antigen on the MHC and promote the proliferation of T and B cells which will specifically seek out that antigen in the body and destroy any cells that have that antigen present.

Here's a video of phagocytosis in action, its pretty cool that this stuff is just happening inside of us and we have no control over it.

The proposed rules are expected to be passed, however an amendment to allow for the use of facial recognition in limited circumstances, tabled by the European People's Party of which Fine Gael is a member, has led to unease among some groups in the parliament, who believe it should be banned.

I'm glad we're bringing in some sort of regulation, social media companies got away with shady business practices for years by selling user data without express consent before GDPR was brought in.

With AI advancing so fast and only being able to be controlled by large entities with enough resources to power it, we need proper regulation that protects EU citizens from disinformation and manipulation tactics that can be employed across the internet without us even realising it.

Ireland has already been creating a biometric photo database of the country’s 3.2 million Public Services Card (PSC) holders.

So I am hopeful that the amendment to allow for the use of facial recognition in limited circumstances is completely shut down for now. In the future, using AI in exceptional legal cases might be alright once everyone fully understands how it would work and how it can be regulated and how their rights would be affected by its implementation

Olga Cronin, surveillance and human rights policy officer at ICCL, said the Department has been “building a national biometric database without a relevant legal basis and without transparency”.

“It continues to collect people’s biometric information in exchange for services they are legally entitled to.

I'm sure we'll begin to see AI take over jobs, leading to higher unemployment/ shorter working hours, it would be great to see some form of universal basic income come out of this to allow for a better work life balance, maybe it could be subsidies by companies that choose to use AI for these positions.
