We can already copy DNA with PCR (polymerase chain reaction), but creating it from scratch seems unnecessary. Embryos by comparison are infinitely more complex. We do have the technology to fertilize one egg with the genetic material of another, though, so maybe it's not as far off as I'm imagining.

Even if you put out birdseed, it takes them a little while to find it.

Fun fact, birds can't taste the spicy chemical in peppers.

I've tried this using a bit of egg and it really helps. If you have egg in a carton it's easy to use a fraction instead of wasting the rest.

The baby chick icon is helpful to show new users, but I have noticed an annoying pattern of behavior. Some new users will create new communities and then post repeatedly to the new community to try and get it going. I would like to be able to hide posts from new users to avoid this issue.

Not just the surgery table, but the organ harvesting table.

"You look like someone I'm looking for" seems to be a recurring quote from these guys.

I just wish him telling the world what he was going to do would have fired people up in November.

These guys usually soar quite a bit higher and are hard to photograph, but a combination of the clouds and the closer proximity gave a halfway decent shot.

The fact that users wanting a "feature complete" product at launch is seemingly news to them is absurd.

He does events in the public space of trump tower without a permit, which Cohen equates to stealing from the people of New York. Click saved.

I browse lemmy primarily through the local feed and mute communities I'm not particularly interested in. When a different community posts a link to a muted community, the post opens without showing any comments.

Example: I have muted the no stupid questions community. Someone posts a link to a post in that community to best of. That post opens fine and shows the correct number of comments, but no comments are visible.

This game is absolutely worth its full price of $40. The gameplay is very linear, but in a way that I quite enjoyed. The sequel, A Plague Tale: Requiem, is equally amazing. Easily two of my favorite games of all time.

Name brand Flovent no longer being produced, generic works just as well. Maybe some insurance coverage issues.

Short version for any asthmatics that got worried by the headline.

I canceled my Netflix when this happened. I wasn't really using it, but friends and family were. At least three of them created their own accounts when I canceled mine.

When scrolling through a text post, the size and progress rate of the scroll bar varies dramatically depending on the length of the current comment. In the example below, the post body is very long, resulting in a tiny scroll bar with slow progress. Once you're down into the comments, the scroll bar is much larger and progresses faster.

I would like to filter comments based on keywords similar to how the post keyword filter works.

I would like to be able to block links from certain domains. For example, mute all posts leading to instagram.

Example: I would like to be able to filter out all communities that start with the word "shitty" by having a community filter for "shitty*".
