    Right, I meant more broadly using crispr for food modification might have some unforeseen consequences. Feels a bit like the beginning of Jurassic park, but with plants?

    This is fascinating, I do find it funny that a seedless berry will be the future, just because that’s kinda an oxymoron. Wonder if there will be any unforeseen consequences with this one!

    Hello fellow tildeans,
    I’m looking for suggestions for 7 player lan games that will run on a combination of steam decks and Mac books. I was thinking of retro games because I feel like there’s more compatibility for macOS but would like to field suggestions from fellow nerds on Tildes.
    Thanks!
    Preferences are probably shooting games but are open to other kinds~

    I like squardle and gerrymandle thank you! If you’re looking for some zoology/taxonomy game I’d recommend metazooa!

    I think I bought them for $200 new at the time, maybe $300. One of the best purchases I’ve made in general tbh. I wanted them specifically for riding airplanes to cancel that noise out but it’s done so many other things for me, I’ll be so sad when they finally die.

    I’ve used my Sony whx-1000xm3 for 7-8 years now, still work great. The plastic is breaking now but I refuse to get new ones and have ziptied them back together. When I’m playing pc, I plug them into a mic and turn them on to get the noise cancelling. When just listening to music or whatever the Bluetooth works great. Would recommend because they’re on the 7th gen now or whatever and you can probably find a good deal on the older ones.

    A lot of environmental scientists remain unbiased regardless of politics in USA. Unless you’re looking for research on climate technologies or policy, you’ll still find plenty of non-trump influenced science from the USA. Just because he’s gutting our programs doesn’t mean the people are changing their science. (I work in the environmental field, a lot of people hate him here).

    Not sure where your from, but most states have universities with environmental/agriculturual extensions with youtube lectures and videos about local ecosystems or plant communities.
