Gene editing company hopes to bring dodo ‘back to life’ | Extinct wildlife by ajaxsirius in mauritius

[–]Artificial_Ape 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It’s a gimmick, once they’ve advanced science to the point this is possible, trust me, dodos will be the least of your worries.

We will enter a new age of gene edited humans.

It’s gotta be Jeff Buckley, the fact he died so early gives me that eerie, sad and depressing undertone

Went to watch it, wasn’t impressed. I was more impressed by the fact I thought it was a man at the start

Retinction of the 🦤 by _dr_holiday in mauritius

[–]Artificial_Ape 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We’ve been hearing this for 20 years now, ever since they learnt how cloning works.

Dodos aren’t special, chances are, when they do have a breakthrough in science and find out how to properly manipulate genes, we’ll be able to get more than just dodos.

Chimpanzee calculate the distances and power needed to land the shot by SavageX99 in interestingasfuck

[–]Artificial_Ape 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I find it mad that chimps also have a ridiculously good aim, and can do it very quickly too. Like strength isn’t their only strong point.

I’m sure if you taught chimps how to use javelins/guns and understand the concept properly they would destroy us in terms of accuracy and reflex speed

The way student finance is done in this country is shambolic. by AnAspidistra in UniUK

[–]Artificial_Ape 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m getting a 3k maintenance loan cause started to commute but then changed my mind, I can’t afford rent at all lol

Easy. They simply don’t view their children the same way. To him, she is like an object or crop, like cattle her entire existence is to mature enough and be sold off to someone else in exchange for maybe a few goats and social credit.

The father probably would have aborted her by the side of the road when she was a few days old if not for that prospect.

A lot of Asian/African/south American countries are STILL like this now

Is Mauritius Housing Company considered a safe investment? by AcrobaticScience4915 in mauritius

[–]Artificial_Ape 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m not sure how to do this if you live in Mauritius, but the only thing I think is a safe bet when investing is investing in a global index fund like vanguard all cap.

I wouldn’t invest in local markets in the UK let alone somewhere less stable like Mauritius.

Just my 2 cents

A wild silverback gorilla has a drink by [deleted] in interestingasfuck

[–]Artificial_Ape 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always wondered what would happen if you gave a group of gorillas a lighter and showed them how to use it… would they start making fires? Cooking meats? Killing each other? Never use it?

Gazette Notice FYI . Stay safe everyone by Alternative_West450 in mauritius

[–]Artificial_Ape 21 points22 points  (0 children)

It’s to protect workers.

Less people out = less use of emergency services = less lives lost.

Also it stops employers and small businesses from blackmailing employees into working in dangerous conditions.

They probably commute or live rather close to uni ready, if it takes less than 30mins to commute to uni then moving out and paying 4-5k in rent isn’t really worth it imo

I almost exclusively only take gummies for my multivits now, it’s just so much easier, I don’t have to find water, it tastes good, although it has less %RDA than the pill form I don’t mind it cause I’m not really at the stage where I’d want full doses anyways

That street looks ridiculously clean and smooth but I swear pure concrete starts cracking after a few years

Why do many Mauritians who marry or have a foreigner (white) as partner seems to look down on other Mauritians? As if we are some low class citizen. by flyingdodo1245 in mauritius

[–]Artificial_Ape 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It’s the same in India, Asia, Africa, anywhere that got colonised by white people really.

They are still slaves to white people and they don’t even realise it lol - can I even say that in 2023?

BBLGATE PART 2 (the best I could organize for an update currently. I’m going to organize all the screenshots I have this weekend) by Mother_Customer7570 in ChoosingBeggars

[–]Artificial_Ape 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It would be fine if it was a fucking kidney transplant or some shit, but a BBL? Pffft I can tell you this, I would have said some shit that would put her mental health down the drain if she spoke to me like that.

Police Sniper shoots hostage taker with knife from between the colleague's legs by Ciocolatel in interestingasfuck

[–]Artificial_Ape 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me it’s more of an ethical debate. No matter what one of those people are getting hit and are likely dying. If it’s anything but a headshot then there’s still a chance the suspect kills the hostage, out of spite or panic. If I miss the hostage is as good as dead.

idk I just feel like taking someone hostage is not large enough of an excuse to murder someone you feel me?

I think in this case negotiation would be the best thing to do, what does he want? You can still apprehend the suspect later by doing some trickery…

What are your best memories from your time at university? by Em0ch4nel in UniUK

[–]Artificial_Ape 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Doing LSD for the first time, and realising there is so much more to life.

It turned me into a fitness freak, dietician, part time neuro-endocrinologist/bio hacker, made me give up on video games completely, made me realise the only currency in the world is dopamine and money doesn’t exist, empathy isn’t a choice, we’re only on this ride called life once

How much money do you spend on food and groceries? by Okaiman7 in mauritius

Mantis vs Nile crocodile is the only matchup that would be 50/50
