Help & Resources / Re: [UK] AdrenalineX Racing - Car Top Speeds
« on: April 01, 2016, 05:53:39 pm »
large role have FPS and nitro Give exzample in the race like Specialist_1,2,3,4 and other
I Use FPSLIMIT 23 and got amazing acceleration from last line i got first position and + you have amazing max speed with fpslimit 23 Control better (only for bumps not)
I Use in MTA this maybe in SAMP not same but i think yes

This thread has nothing to do with nitro and fps.

I don't see the point in modifying a virus if they can't make a profit out of it. What would be the point of modifying the Zika virus so that it causes microcephaly if there's no vaccine or cure  for the virus (disease goes away on its own actually) or cure for microcephaly?

Good question.

Also, you mention that people in labs actually have cures for some virus, but if that were the case, why wouldn't they announce it? It would be very profitable, from a purely ''people buy the cure'' point of view and from a ''marketing'' point of view, considering it would give more recognition to the laboratory. They'd only lose money if they release them for free, but who says they have to do it for free?

They don't announce them because apparently the more profitable option is to sell a bunch of other medicaments which have less effect or even contraeffect on viruses. Therefore people will have to buy them on regular basis since they don't completely cure virus + they may switch to another type of medicament or combine two or more = that's definitely at least triple more profitable than just releasing a final product of cure (whether free or for sale) which would result in people buying in only once and curing themselves immediately. I hope you get the point here. What you said is of course more logical and moral solution, but you know, money rules the world, people only care about profit.

The problem with microorganisms is that they can mutate pretty fast and evolve and gain resistance/methods to avoid death, therefore finding a cure is harder. The best example are influenza viruses, which have a new vaccine literally every year because of their mutations.

Of course, that's what was I pointing out in my previous post. I know how viruses work and develop. Mutations usually happen when virus "decides" to mutate on its own, but I was trying to say that there are unnatural/artificial mutations caused/provoked by people for certain purpose. I'm not really into it (I'm still rookie in this field) so I can't say more.

Well the thing with cancer is that it's not a disease, but a group of diseases which have in common to have a disregulated celular cycle. So you can't ''cure cancer'' because it is literally over 100 different diseases. What may be done is to cure a particular sub-type of cancer. For example, breast cancer has these sub-types (actually more if you grab a proper phatology book but i cba to scan it now) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_breast_cancer_cell_lines

I haven't studied pathology much, but it seems legit.

As a laboratory technician I can tell you that those accusations about the origins of viruses/vaccines are NOT meaningless. Yes, there are people who believe in every possible conspiracy theory, but pharmaceutical industry is a big system with a lot of malfeasance cases so it's justified to have doubts about anything related to it, including the origins of certain viruses.

Are you implying that pharmaceutical companies create virus? I don't see how that can be possible.

Viruses can be mutated in laboratory by technicians in experimental purpose and that's nothing weird, that's the way scientists can find out more about their morphology, cultural and biochemical characteristics, antigen structure, pathogenicity, diagnostic and their sensitivity on certain madicaments. However, that can be abused in many ways; for example, to create different modifications of the same virus - subtypes (one virus with different characteristics, structure etc.). Some of those subtypes are of natural origins, but there are also those with laboratory origins... Bird flu virus, swine flu virus, dog flu virus are just some of these subtypes known to wider auditorium, but there are many others about whose existence are only rare people aware of (mainly those stongly connected with medicine and supreme pharmaceutical companies and research labs).

And yes, they do have cure for these well known viruses and maybe even for less known ones, but then comes a question of profitability in announcing them in public and releasing them for free shopping in pharmacies/drugstores... Some people even believe that they also have a cure for HIV virus and I wouldn't be surprised if that's true. The only defect/disease for which they still definitely haven't found any cure that definitely removes it is cancer (malign tumor).

"One third of Americans believe this Zika conspiracy theory" good. They are starting to use their brain.

Maybe it's not related to your PC, maybe you have a sucky internet? Maybe the server is located in Europe and I guess you're from USA, so a long distance raises your ping and makes you lag.

Change windows just for a game when before it used to work and run?
Oh god

Microsoft stopped supporting XP like 2 years ago, there are no more security updates nor technical support available, so he should move to at least Win7, regardless of the fact that SAMP would maybe still work on XP.
