Converting from one lossless to another is still transcoding as you are changing the encoding format of the data. The conversion being lossy or not is related to the choice of formats, not the process itself.

It’s worth noting that distinct lineages only really happen where there is reproductive isolation and that especially in the modern world no one has a “pure” lineage. Instead you have genetic composition that might have a larger influence from one ancestral population over an other.

If you want to accomplish a noble cause like preservation I don’t think it’s disingenuous to also satisfy some personal desires along the way. Easier to get people on board to do it if you do.

You might be right and in any case the new boss is better than the old boss right? Then again maybe this is just the honeymoon period which bluesky soaks up as many users as it can before the enshittification begins to start wringing profit out of the enterprise? Time will te if the hate is justified or just sour grapes.

Hyperbole, any mirror organisms we cook up will be simple and inefficient since they won’t be able to make easy use of the abundance of material that is the wrong chirality for their biochemistry. If they escaped they’d starve to death because all the normal life would be scavenging all the food sources much more effectively.

Depending how long they had used the service they probably saved more than €150 just by not paying subscriptions to all the services they would need for the same content. Cost of doing business?
