They respond because they have to do things like inject the genetic material into the organism once it latches on to whatever on the cell surface. That doesn’t occur in the host, it occurs in the virus.

It’s been a while since I took virology, but I feel pretty confident that something occurs in the virus due to an external stimulus.

One of the theories how organisms switched from RNA to DNA is due to viruses. Viruses have a pretty wild range of their genetic diversity. Single strand DNA, double strand DNA, positive sense single strand RNA, negative sense single strand RNA, double strand RNA. We’ve also probably got viruses as a permanent part of our genome from some ancestor species.

I think they’re pretty cool. Also, they do respond to outside stimuli, otherwise they’d be completely inert.

Just learn the math, it’s quite easy. IIRC you just add the reciprocals of the resistors then take the reciprocal of the answer.

1/Req = 1/R1 + 1/R2 + 1/R3 ….

If you were able to answer that question, I think you would solve one of the eternal mysteries of humanity. We seem unable to escape the patterns that we keep repeating millennia after millennia.

The difference is the pyramids exist

almost all of the humans that have ever existed ... exist right now

This is wildly untrue. The recent estimation of how many humans have existed is around 100 billion. Half of the total population of humans ever to exist was before the year 0, with the other half since then.

What do you mean by same thing with Meshtastic, are they trying to sell spectrum around 900mHz too?

I don’t understand the significance of holding up the F like it’s a cross. The F is the symbol of the zombies, not the symbol of the opposite of the zombies.

Whenever I try to Select Text, it only pops up a few millimeters at the bottom of the screen. I can pull it up a few more and copy the whole text and work with that, but this isn’t how it used to function. I can no longer see the text and select snippets from there to copy.

Is it possible to transfer favorite communities from an account on one server to another? Say for example I'd like to have an alt with the same favorites on another server for a backup. Is this possible with wefwef or other means?

Looking to get my main off lemmy.world to help load balance, but I don't want to refavorite everything; if I could somehow keep them in sync that would be ideal.
