"Tales from the internet"

Wow, guess you don't have anything serious lol.

Why do you hate cryopreservation?

Why do you hate cryopreservation?

You know cryo isn't a thing right?

As in: I hate martians.

[-] Valmond@lemmy.dbzer0.com -1 points 23 hours ago

But it is, we cryopreserve (and thaw) things all the time. Just not entire humans, yet.

But I understand better your aversion to it, like it was a belief and not science.

[-] im_fine_sandy@nord.pub 1 points 17 hours ago

Cryopreservation refers to things which will be reanimated when thawed. That's no more plausible than a star trek transporter.

They do that with small animals already.

So I guess for you advanced science is indistinguishable from magic.

[-] TachyonTele_Esq@piefed.social 0 points 16 hours ago

I'm thinking for you there's a lot more magic than science in your world.

No I'm working in electron microscopy, what about you?

I have no opinion on the topic this video just talks about it you don’t believe me here’s a article talking about the failures mentioned in the other comment

[-] Valmond@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 23 hours ago

My problem with it from the starters is that it's an article from February 1992. It's like saying that cancer medicine doesn't work and link a 30 year old article. Medicine has come a long way since then!

Hello fellow Far Side fans!

About this community and how I post the comic strip… Many moons ago, I would ask my Dad to save the newspaper for me everyday so I could read my favorite comic strips and one of those was The Far Side. These days of course you find just about anything online including www.thefarside.com where they post several comics a day and I repost them here. Just to note, the date you see in my posts is not the initial release date, but the date they were posted on the website.

The Far Side is a single-panel comic created by Gary Larson and syndicated by Chronicle Features and then Universal Press Syndicate, which ran from December 31, 1979, to January 1, 1995 (when Larson retired as a cartoonist). Its surrealistic humor is often based on uncomfortable social situations, improbable events, an anthropomorphic view of the world, logical fallacies, impending bizarre disasters, (often twisted) references to proverbs, or the search for meaning in life… Read more: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Far_Side

Hope you enjoy and feel free to contribute to the community with art, cool stuff about the author, tattoos, toys and anything else, as long it’s The Far Side!
