"Otaku culture" doesn't mean sexbots are more culturally acceptable, it just means there is a larger market for them.
Japenese neckbeards do exist, but as here, being so into cartoon or video-game culture that you can't participate in mating rituals is not actually viewed favorably by mainstream culture. That's why they're not exported; they have personal freedom, but exports have to be more culturally acceptable.
Your argument seems to be that the FCC doesn't have the authority to do what it already has been doing, even though the Courts consistently said they do have that authority.
You're repeating a really stupid talking point and just taking it as fact, instead of taking it as ideas, and using the ideas that actually make sense and hold up.
Before bittorrent, downloading linux distributions could take days, and it cost the distro money for the server load. With torrents I can download a whole distro in a few minutes! And it doesn't add to the costs of publishing the distro.
If you're a nazi I can understand why you'd feel that way.
Real shit is happening in the world. If nazis are a thing, you should expect that there will be a large number of us who do remember and will burn, cut, shoot, scrape, claw, or whatever it takes to oppose them. If all I have left is my last drop of blood, I'll try to fling it in their eye!
Real shit is real, I understand that there are still people whose basements are so remote they don't understand what is happening. And so my words would look really fuckin' weird. But don't expect your ignorance to factor into people's decisions.
That's why they use a clickbait headline that lies, and leave out the words "people believe."
Asking what people think happens is not a way to find out what happens. Polls are not studying what is best or real. Polls study people's opinions and beliefs.
Would you allow someone without a medical license to operate on you?
Like Richard Feynman said, if you're out in the jungle and you get malaria, and there is no modern clinic, go to the medicine man for treatment because he might have medicine that helps. It doesn't matter if he understands scientific reasons for putting the quinine bark in the medicine; it doesn't matter if he thinks that the dance he does afterwards chases the evil spirits out. The medicine in the bark will still work.
biohacker morons
Yeah, no way! I would be more likely to visit an unlicensed mafia clinic for open-heart surgery than to inject some weird shit from a "biohacker."
Cue a bunch of neckbeards demanding that they be the same, however, most conventional fruit (and vegetables!) that have been bred to be flavorless are that way for increased shelf life. (not yield)
The varieties with the longest shelf life have to be bred to have less flavor, and to be more susceptible to disease, because the natural protection is mostly vitamin C. Which tastes very sour. So if all you do is breed it to have more shelf life, it will be more sour. So you also have to breed it to be more mild. The plant is trying hard to keep various things in balance, and so you get these same tradeoffs consistently. You breed it to have less defenses, so it tastes sweeter, so you can make it last longer and not taste bad, and now if you stop using pesticides your crops will fail.
The varieties that organic farms choose are varieties that can still grow closer to naturally. They will have more flavor, and a shorter shelf life. So the prices will be higher, but so will the quality in multiple ways. None of which have to do with the "its all the same, everything with the word `lettuce' is the same" stuff the neckbeards will be saying in reply.
That isn't really as true as the propaganda makes it sound, though. They're being (often force-) fed a diet different from their natural diet. We have wild turkeys where I live, a few hang out right downtown in the city! They mostly eat bugs. They do eat some seeds too, for sure, but grains soaked in animal lard isn't really the same, nutritionally, as fresh insects and seasonal whole grains.
If you take that farm turkey and don't clip its wings, and you raise it "free range," it is not going to be a good flier but it can probably mate just fine. Yeah, the conventional turkeys at the grocery store, probably never were in good enough health to be able to mate.
"Wild" is just the antonym of "farmed." You end up being circular.
Genetics is not different on a farm or in the wild; the genes don't have any idea where they are. If we know the changes were from breeding, we know it is not a fundamentally different process.
Cosmetic changes in the wild don't necessarily persist, either. Speciation sometimes speeds up, but it is a constant process made up from variations, most of which end up not persisting. Most of the traits that get passed on, do not persist!
Potatoes in Ireland and Chile meet and recombine by animal dispersal. Same as most of the other plants that travel. Fake distinctions between humans and other animals cloud scientific understanding.
Selective breeding/is/ genetic engineering. But with more variables, more risks, and less control over the outcome.
Since he just said exactly that, and you feel the need to repeat it, it means you're one of people he's referring to; you're repeating words, but you don't seem to be understanding.
If you were comprehending it, you could hear the words "selective breeding" and just say "yes, it is." And not feel the need to act like you're correcting something.
You've got as far as understanding they are the same word, now try to understand they're the same idea, and that fact is not one-way.
I live in the US and we have wild turkeys in my neighborhood, (yes, I do live in a city! They come downtown.) They eat bugs along the side of the road, between parked cars.
Turkeys in America are the same as they always were; wild turkeys can still fly, farm turkeys haven't been able to for hundreds of years.
Turkeys that can fly don't stay on lame farms, you have to treat them really well. They're quite intelligent birds.
That is horseshit. Kids in public schools learn all about WWII.
Kids in public schools learn all about Stalin. He killed 5 million people just trying to goad America to attack! Trying to be horrible enough. That is why his advisors eventually killed him.
In your world, murder can never even happen because if you only have a dead body and no conviction, there is no reason to suspect a crime. You just keep asking if there was a conviction, and if not, no crime happened!
in your perfect world charges would be filed before an investigation
Please show me the charges that have been filed against Donald Trump and the evidence to be presented.
You fucking moron, you didn't even read what I said. You can't even comprehend that when I give you a sequence of steps, 1, 2, 3, that step 3 comes at the end, long after step 1.
Sure, if you think of international megacorps as being part of "the West" then I can see why you might presume that they would respond to the situation in a culturally beneficial way.
But what if they're greedy, and have no cultural loyalties other than to corporate money culture?

There is, "Informative." If it is too informative, just moderate twice!

No, actually, not everybody are criminals, and not every country is equally criminal.
Nor do multiple wrongs add to a right.
Nor does "somebody else might have done something else that was also a little bit bad" ever add up to an excuse. It just makes you look like a shill.
Putin not need Uber. Putin take off shirt and attract Cossack pony for ride to work!
Liberal hackers are almost all white-hats. They also ride white horses, and fight for social justice.
If they also suck, that's because they're liberal! There is more than just one act, more than just one position.

False, it generates a Protection from Cops field on the wearer.

Nope.
