🧵 Mass lung damage conspiracy
Anonymous at Sat, 23 Mar 2024 12:54:48 UTC No. 16092483
A while ago, an anon posted a thread claiming that if you visit the doctor, saying you've had a bad cough recently, they'll prescribe you an inhaler with some kind of steroid such as prednisone.
The reason for this is because covid has caused lung damage in a significant proportion of cases, and doctors are quietly prescribing these steroid inhalers to treat the damage as people come in.
People shit on his post at the time, but some other anons in the thread said they were also prescribed inhalers recently. I actually tried doing exactly this, recently, and I was also prescribed a steroid inhaler, exactly as OP described.
Is there something going on here? Has anyone else tried this and got similar experiences?

There's some interesting research on this site but some of the people who run it seem like they're trying to appeal to social justice types or are excessively whiny.

Reminder that ball lightning is a myth with no actual evidence saying it exists. By now if ball lightning existed we would have instances where multiple independent witnesses saw a ball lightning + video footage, yet so far we have neither. All the videos of ball lightning are doctored and it's hard to find the actual sources of the video. Further the witness testimonies vary widely about how ball lightning actually behaves. If ball lightning flew down some random street and multiple people saw it and multiple cameras recorded it, we would know for certain it exists. Yet this has never happened. And statistically speaking this should've happened given the frequency of reports of ball lightning.

So im trying to get a grasp on particle physics and many textbooks say something along the lines of "elementary particles correspond to irreducible unitary representations of the Lorentz group".
Now, the most common representation of this group is just the old Lorentz transformation matrices, but this is just one out of infinite possible representations, out of which only some are unitary, some are irreducible and even less are unitary and irreducible. All of these sets are infinite anyway.
Well, how do you actually find these? And related, why are these specific representations said to represent elementary particles?
I try to follow the explanations in textbooks and internet articles but they go too fast and skip over details. I get the Lorentz group is related to SU(2) x SU(2) but i get lost in the details, i need this explained like a friend would i he sat with you for an hour to explain you a difficult topic. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Is ionic silver a scam compared to true colloidal silver? Manufacturers of ionic silver claim that smaller particles are better for absorption, while proponents of true colloidal silver argue that the clear solution is essentially a rip-off. What are your thoughts?

computers can now tell if you're gay just by looking at you.
of course its still considered prejudice if you judge people by the way they look, even though everyone knows that computers are programmed with their programmers' biases.
🧵 Solar Eclipse Glasses
Anonymous at Sat, 23 Mar 2024 07:07:49 UTC No. 16092226
I want to go view the eclipse in a couple weeks but unlike normal people I am a blind fuck and have to wear bulky glasses, should I try and fit something over my normal glasses (will the light I'm trying to keep out get through since they obviously don't sit right in my eyes?) or should I try and fit something under them? I am such a blind fuck (over +8 in my "good" eye) taking off my normal glasses is NOT an option. What is the best solution for me to physically see it in person?

Climate scientist Stephen Schneider of NOAA in the October 1989 issue of Discover magazine admitted that climate scientists intentionally mislead the public about global warming as a means of forwarding their political goals:
>Stephen Schneider of the National Center for Atmospheric Research described the scientists’ dilemma this way:
>“On the one hand, as scientists, we are ethically bound to the scientific method, in effect promising to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but—which means that we must include all the doubts, the caveats, the ifs, ands, and buts. On the other hand, we are not just scientists but human beings as well.
>And like most people we’d like to see the world a better place, which in this context translates into our working to reduce the risk of potentially disastrous climatic change. To do that we need to get some broad-based support, to capture the public’s imagination. That, of course, entails getting loads of media coverage. So we have to offer up scary scenarios, make simplified, dramatic statements, and make little mention of any doubts we might have. This ‘double ethical bind’ we frequently find ourselves in cannot be solved by any formula. Each of us has to decide what the right balance is between being effective and being honest.”
