What the gently caress has happened there The "She turned the weans against us" principle dictates that he made racist jokes and eventually one of his weans said it was racist, causing a spiral of anger and rejection that caused him to make racism his entire persona until he made a shite folk album about his divorce and it all got worse from there.

NotJustANumber99 posted:I dunno how the deal went down and its probably naïve to assume anything other than the worst but Oxford set about making a vaccine that anyone could produce and ended up being convinced at least in part by Bill Gates that they needed to partner with 'someone' to get their vaccine to market. Oxford apparently aren't receiving anything financially for now and the astra zeneca vaccine is cheaper than the others and is allegedly being made at cost 'during the pandemic' but theres no oversight on that so who knows. Astrazeneca aren't getting anything either, they are producing it for 0 profit. Not enough people understand this.

I think you're right that lying is probably the most plausible, but I also wouldn't be surprised if there was a chunk of the Labour 2017 vote that was a very vague protest/anti-liberal establishment vote for all sorts of poo poo reasons (see also, Brexit), so shifts easily to racist/"it's Political Correctness gone mad" bullshit

Making viral vectors is for real not easy, even just a couple of years ago we had huge variability in yield from manufacturers, sometimes you just got zero instead of the planned 50 patients worth. I don't work in CMC and don't understand how you can end up with that bad a production process. The Brazilian health authority also refused approval for the Russian vaccine partly due to concerns the virus might not be replication incompetent. That's likely to be a vector design issue rather than process issue, but again shows how producing the viral vector vaccines isn't straightforward. There is also a rationale that big pharma is best placed to run registrational studies, but that's obviously not convincing in the AZ example.

Tesseraction posted:Bill Gates threatened to withdraw millions in donations to Oxford if they didn't sell their vaccine (which they were originally going to open-source) to AstraZeneca exclusively instead, which is part of why the Oxford vaccine's rollout has been a shitshow. Finland also had ideas for an open source vaccine in early 2020, the government told them to go find private funding.

I don't work in CMC and don't understand how you can end up with that bad a production process. In a world where big pharma runs all of the large-scale biologic and pharmaceutical manufacturing, you do need to partner with big pharma to produce vaccine at a scale quickly. And by the same profit maximization metric they use to squeeze money out of the US healthcare system, they are going to ramp up dose production as fast as possible to avoid leaving money on the table. Doesn't mean IP rights aren't bullshit, but this isn't evil Bill Gates shutting off vaccine production from the Third world via IP law - it's decades of neocolonialism making it such much of the Third world doesn't have the expertise or production facilities to make vaccines reguardless of the IP status and partnership deals.

Is anyone able to advise on a decent bike for me to buy via my works cycle to work scheme? I don't want anything fancy at all, just something I can go to the shops on, with maybe the occasional longer distance country ride. Comfy and reliable is what I'm after. Sorry if this is the wrong place, it's just that the UKMT hive mind knows everything.

If your budget is limited then just go for the lightest you can get for the cash you have, would advise something steel framed though as it will last forever if you look after it. For City commuting singlespeed is fine and cheapest to maintain (less to go wrong / easier to clean). Factor in buying a new saddle because any cheap bike is going to come with absolutely shite one (same with tyres, you can save longterm by shelling out for some schwalbe marathons which are pretty much impervious to punctures).

I got one of these from my work's cycle scheme: https://www.halfords.com/bikes/hybrid-bikes/apollo-belmont-mens-hybrid-bike---18in-21in-frames-566619.html I'm sure serious cyclists would be aghast at getting a mass-produced bike from Halfords, but it was their second-cheapest road-biased hybrid bike and it was great. My actual commute was only about 10 minutes cycling each way but it was easy and comfy, I had panniers on it for going to the shops and I did some longer jaunts around town or out into the country on it. Disclaimer: I'd been getting about on a tiny-wheeled folding-frame bike with no suspension before that, so almost anything would be more comfortable and convenient by comparison.

How much are you willing to spend (as in real cost to you - I'm willing to have XX less money in my bank account), and what tax rate are you on? keep punching joe posted:If your budget is limited then just go for the lightest you can get for the cash you have, would advise something steel framed though as it will last forever if you look after it. For City commuting singlespeed is fine and cheapest to maintain (less to go wrong / easier to clean). This is very good advice, although I have a bad personal experience with Marathons - in that they're amazing, but when you get a tiny, tiny, tiny slither of glass in them that you really can't find and you think it's absolutely gone, they can cost you a whack in replacement tubes over a couple of weeks. They're great though.

Lady Demelza posted:See also: green energy. So many people dismiss it because renewables were only providing x% of the UK's total energy requirements. Well yes, at the moment, but the percentages creep up annually despite our energy useage increasing, and it all makes a difference.  Just need to get rid of that 25% gas burning and 7% 'carbon neutral' (by logging old growth forests) biomass.

Thanks for the input everyone. Sounds like just getting a cheapish hybrid from halfords would be the best and easiest option, and possibly pay a bit extra for a luxury fluffy saddle...
