    but will it run linux?

  2. What happens when they finish? on Japanese Creating "Super Tuna" · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Scientists: We created a super strain of tuna that is better in every possible way. Can we release it into the ocean?
    Environmentalists: No.
    Scientists: Please?
    Environmentalists: Will it take over existing species?
    Scientists: Yes but it will also make it easier/cheaper to feed the world population.
    Environmentalists: No.


    Conservation sounds like a good idea and all but how sweet would it be if the ocean was full of super salmon and super tuna that had the qualities mentioned here? If we created a super fish that was a source of food for these larger fish and also reproduced extra fast we could theoretically get so much more of our food from the ocean.

    People are always mentioning pollution from livestock farming. I don't know if this is actually a significant factor in global warming type concerns, but it would be interesting to know how much greener we would be if we farmed super tuna instead of cattle.

    Even if more than a few species of fish went extinct, I say it would be worth it.

  6. I feel for her on Teen Diagnoses Her Own Disease In Science Class · · Score: 1

    I have crohn's and wasn't correctly diagnosed for almost 3 years after I started complaining. The Doctors were like "shit Idk take this stuff 3 times a day" and after a while decided I had ulcerative collitus and started giving me medicine for that.

    "Luckily" I finally found out what it was and was able to get "correct" treatment.... correct treatment being one of a many different options of which most fail and the ones that do work only work sometimes.

    I agree. If any money is to be spent on the group people-that-double-click-trojan.exe it should be spent on helping them understand that computers aren't magical and that you don't need a degree in computer science to have a good idea of what's safe or not.
