looks like a launch ps3 game, which is baffling considering they're struggling to even make it run at 20fps.

My brother is a raging alcoholic, and has been for 15 years. He can't hold a job, he's 36 and has never left home, and he's driving my mother crazy. She just called and said he's passed out naked on the living room floor, so it looks like I'm going to have to drop what I'm doing, again, and go move his naked ass.

My mom's over it, and I'm over my mom being stressed out over it. She won't kick him out because she's too kind, but something's gotta give somewhere.

How do you get someone committed to rehab against their will? Can you even? We're in Tennessee, if state law matters.

So now I gotta go do this stupid shit. Again. :evil:

This basically. There haven't been any demonstrated negative health effects of GMOs and genetic modification is really just a more expedited form of selective breeding/evolution.

The real problem comes from companies like Monsanto which patent living organisms and don't regulate genes that can spread into the wild.

mrbojangles25

it is the way they enforce it.  Example:

Farmer A buys Monsanto brand X corn.  It comes with a clause that he must buy new seed every year, cannot store and reuse seed after each harvest, and if he does so, will be fined out the ass.

Farmer B uses the same old corn he has been using for the past few years.

Because corn is wind pollinated, and Farmer A and Farmer B are neighbors, some of Farmer A's pollen gets over to Farmer B's corn where suddenly his traditional corn is pollinated and *voila* it is suddenly containing some of the Monsanto DNA.

Now, here is the fun part.  Monsanto ILLEGALLY drives around and picks samples from farms on a regular basis to check for this exact occurrence so they can take farmers to court.  But due to their strong lobbying, they can LEGALLY use their findings to sue the pants off of Farmer B, and essentially drive the small farmer out of business so that they have a monopoly.

THis is not paranoia, this is literally happening every week across the nation.  I went to a predominately agricultural college, and this happened to a bunch of friends of mine who's folks grew corn, rice, soy, sorghum, rapeseed...you name it

I think people take this genetically modified issue out of context. What does genetically modified actually mean to you? Cause technically, when im controlling the breeding pattern of a species, I'm technically modifying the genetic outcome to get a favorable result. Take for instance something as simple those seedless fruits you buy at the store. Do you actually think these fruits grow without seeds? Obviously not! Sure there could be a mutation that causes the fruit to grow without seeds, but that mutation would pretty much die out in that generation cause the fruit would be unable to reproduce. So how do you get seedless fruits? Through hybridization.

This is similar to how we create a mule. You take a male donkey and a female horse, get them to mate, and you get a mule as a result. A creature that is bred to have all the characteristics of a horse that you want, and all the charactersitics of a donkey that you want. By controlling the mating environments, you are modifying the probability of genetic outcomes to get a favorable outcome.

So my question is, if you have no problem with hybridization, then whats the issue with splicing some DNA into another organism, or removing a few chromosomes? If i were to hybridize a water melon to have less chromosomes, and thus grow without seeds, or if I were to take the watermelon germ cell and physically splice out some of the chromosomes to make them seedless, whats the difference? Its like the difference between me coming into your house and shooting you vs cutting your gas line so when you light a match your house blows up. In the first example im physically killing you, in the other im facilitating the conditions to make your death highly probable, but both would still be deemed murder.

PS4 specs out higher, but for some reason all the games are having trouble getting over 30fps. Forget about 60fps, your not going to see it out that wheel chock for a while. May we give you ClownZone: Framerates Fall while you wait. OOOOOHH look at the beautiful linear city! FoxbatAlpha
