CRISPR used to remove extra chromosomes in Down syndrome and restore cell function
I genuinely wonder where the line is between curing defects and eugenics. It seems razor thin how it can swing easiy into dark territory.

TIL: Suicide Rate in the United States Just Hit Highest Point in 75 Years
My daughter is 15. She hates guns. Hates being around them, the sound, the idea of harm, etc. 4 weeks ago she came crying afraid for her friends and ICE. Last week she told me she wanted to learn to shoot. (I inherited a lot of guns. I bought a few myself. I come from a conservative family and I am the black sheep, the one that "changed".) Still trying to get ahold of someone from Blazing Sword as an instructor. I want her to learn from someone with actual teaching instruction, rather than backwoods learning that I got.
Kids are terrified. Schools are scary, the law is scary, the dungeon dwelling creeps are now villified. I can see why suicide is increasing.

Google would be the worst partner for any space related work. We plan on launching in 4 years. Oh, Google says they redesigned it, oh, now it needs updates. 3 years, 11 mo later... Google cancelled the program, we need to find another partner.

*Cars don't create congestion"
It amazes me that this country literally has state borders built around rail systems, a huge dependence on rail for shipping, but decided to just pave over trolley rails, and jack prices of train transit to thousands of dollars for just a few hundred miles. Then the government forces us to pay shittons of money into our vehicles in taxes, insurance, etc without regulating the private companies that we're forced to pay. Meanwhile other countries have super fast trains to travel, subsidized with tax money, and travel seems to be more efficient.

Read the article. Park personnel toppled it, broke it, then removed it in parts. No mystery here. They got orders to demolish and did so with fascist fashion finesse.

Nvidia plans heavy cuts to GPU supply in early 2026
Remember ever company that cuts consumer production over private ai production. When the bubble pops stick with the companies that remembered consumers are the longterm profit. For the rest, let their shareholders eat them alive as they sell every share from beneath them.

Conviction is required, and the informant needs formal recognition by the FBI as a recognized informant first. Karen just called 911, forfeiting the reward.

I really really hate that they call themselves a socialist party... like the KKK calling themselves Racial Unity.

Is mayo a good substitute for heavy cream?
Heavy cream... milk and butter... Mayonaise... eggs, oil, and mustard... do people not look up ingredients at all?

Same as the Companies are People bs. They're people when it comes to bribing politicians, but they have money and are not responsible for evils committed by their companies.

Doctor? Why would employers want you to see a doctor? If you make it to retirement age they have to pay that out and miss out on a cheaper replacement!

"massive broadband rollout" but they fail to mention that that rollout cost $200 billion and was thirty fucking years ago.
If it wasn't for the grants given I'd still be on Comcast paying $80/mo for 325Mbps on a 400 plan that was recently "upgraded" for an additional $10/mo without my consent (the upgrade was replacing 300+mi of lines that were destroyed in a winter storm, lines that were installed in the 90s). Now I have fiber for $50/mo, and Comcast can fuck off on their monopoly. Also, funny thing - their save attempt was to drop my speed to 300 and still have me pay $80/mo.
Also, kudos to the reporter for calling him Mr. Trump as accolades are for those who earn them.

'Disbelief': Pentagon reporter can't find one military official who liked Hegseth's speech

Mussolini promised the world to his troops, and was seen as a competent soldier himself (I admit I know little on his military prowess). Our regime is led by a diaper wearing, flat footed nepo baby who hired a pretty boy guardsman who spent more time in front of a camera wielding propaganda than he did a rifle to lead our entire military. These generals meanwhile get chastised and left to fix every fuckup generated by the administration with no reward for themselves or the men and women under their command. Then they see any hope of rewards in retirement after decades of service go up in smoke. Yeah, I'm not too worried about them doing illegal actions on US citizens. I'm becoming more afraid of a military coup however. If our balance of power and law becomes obsolete, then they may see it as reason to change the executive power as it stands.
