  1. Re:Testing on GMOs Perfected Down to the Chromosome Level · · Score: 1

    Obviously you have no basic understanding of biology.

    A GMO with an artificial chromosome would not be able to possibly pass on the new genes to wild plants, as it is in effect a new species. There can be no recombination of chromosomes during sexual reproduction (ie pollen) when the two parents do not have the same number of chromosomes.

    This is actually the safest possible form of GMOs.

  2. Directed Advertising on Google Slips Talk of Online Storage Service · · Score: 1

    There is something to be said for directed advertising though, we wouldnt get all of those annoying ads that permeate our lives and we might actually get ones for things we want to buy.

    On the other hand, without all those annoying ads on tv etc, how would we know about new stuff and things that other people like?

  3. Re:Encryption on Google Slips Talk of Online Storage Service · · Score: 1

    No one, not even Google or the NSA, would have the time to brute force every single encoded file on every single encoded hard drive backup in their servers, even with the whole world (and Deep and Little Blue) working on distributed processing on the off chance that there is a small number of incriminating files located in it.

    By the way, could Google be charged with being an accessory if their servers are found to have the aforesaid material on them?
