Could potentially be used to create better strains of “good bacteria” such as the extremely important ones that make up the human gut microbiome. I could see it maybe being useful for the development of antibiotics and vaccines too!

Anybody else a bit weirded out by the fact that some 1/4 of the article is spent talking about fringe religious beliefs rather than the actual awesome history of the site?

Yeah pretty sure there’s cave art in France that’s 2-3x as old as that

Could you please show me the people defending Nazis here on 196?

It’s possible to be opposed to authoritarian state-capitalism and opposed to Nazism at the same time!

Yeah it’s the TLD for the country of Mali

Going by the “demonized in the West” part they’re probably talking about North Korea, Russia, Eritrea, and the like.

Goddamn I haven’t thought about that VN in about a decade, pretty sure it was to blame for me getting quite into anime for a few years!

Depends on how old you are - dust from half a century ago didn’t have any microplastics in it!

But it’s on the right-hand side, like the vast majority of cars and trucks?

Nah g holocaust deniers, nazis, tankies, homophobes, and all authoritarian capitalists can get fucked. The way that countries like Canada, the USSR, the UK, and the USA protected “useful” Nazis after WW2 is disgraceful, but that doesn’t really have anything to do with modern Switzerland shutting down homophobic neo-nazis.

Doesn’t Thailand have a military coup every few years? When I visited back in 2014 there were signs all over the airport telling tourists not to join the protests against the latest military coup or you’ll end up in a Thai jail!

“Eighty One” > “Four Twenties One”

Hmm it’s really weird that your post doesn’t mention the 2500 Nazi scientists that the USSR recruited/relocated during Operation Osoaviakhim. I’m sure that’s just an innocent oversight though!

NZCTU is a good place to start if you’re a kiwi.

I’m a member of the E Tū union which is currently negotiating an industry-wide Fair Pay Agreement on behalf of all commercial cleaners in the country!

Hopefully they don’t just replace the USD with a different flavour of the same shit!

That’d be because it’s an anecdotal myth with little/no evidence showing that it actually happened.

Wasn’t Google Photos super racist a few years back?

Kodi with a debrid service works great for me, the one I use has had maybe 2-3 days worth of downtime in the 3 and a half years that I’ve been using it!

Nah it was actually a massive success as long as you don’t believe Bush’s lies about the reason for the invasion. The US military-industrial complex made a ton of money, the whole region was destabilised for decades, the US gained control over Iraqi oil, and it helped preserve the USD as the global currency for a bit longer.
