AWKWARD ZOMBIE

If you were to make an original critter where would the dna come from? would you just use a massive pool of dna or can you actually code genes from scratch? Okay I'm just throwing it out there but I don't think it's really possible to make a completely unique creature. When I say "unique" I mean on...

I'm afraid I don't get your question? Do you want to make a unique critter from scratch? We can technically just build the molecule from oxygen, graphite, hydrogen and nitrogen, but that would be incredibly time-consuming. Any actual genetic engineering currently is done starting with DNA from some...

First of all, the genetic difference between all life on the planet, from bacteria to human beings, is something like 6%. 94% of all the DNA on this planet is identical. So if you're going to start from scratch, it won't actually be from "scratch." That doesn't sound right, the number of chromosome...

same thing, different grille. I call it the Isuzu Hombre. GM did like re badging things at that time, and made no effort to hide it. (many companies did, too)

Well it was a piece of crap when it was new, but you get my point.

Chevy S10 I presume?

Did you not read Bacon's post before mine or what. no I agreed with you, I just put that was considered a "junker/beater" in my mind. I just don't view them as beaters. The Buick was a NASCAR racer. big cars generally are too much work to keep on the road to ever be good for drivers who don't have ...

I love old cars like that. My stepmom actually had an old El Camino, but she had to sell it because it was worse than a pile of shit. way to pick the American cars. oh hey a buick I STILL WANT THAT GNX. But yeah, these guys are pretty good. if you want just to get from a to b and space is not an is...

Rockets would be far removed from genetic enhancement, more like mechanical engineering. The wings required to lift a human off the ground would be absurdly large. some squids use jet propulsion. and on the note of wings, not absurdly large, but on scale with other creatures of our size (see pterod...

because everything google shits out becomes fucking solid gold.

actually you can make anything fly, if it goes fast enough at a slightly upward angle. ROCKET MAN

I thought they didn't do that because it contaminates the crime scene or something. And here I thought it had something to do with Rage Against the Machine. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pele5vptVgc they use a special adhesive tape instead of chalk now. and it's used during the chaos of different ...

they do this in crime scenes if they have to move the body from it's original found position.
also lol she's magic. tiddies work however she feels like I suppose.

Also on barrel roll: typing "z or r twice" has the same effect. also that abc article about it says "One blogger suggested Google is invoking Nintendo’s “Star Fox.”" naw you think so clearly it's an apple reference I mean really :colbert: Totally a marketing thing, and not just programmers at googl...

some people think of themslves as handycapped for having glasses. being able to see without glasses for them is like a man with no legs being able to walk. No, what? That's not even comparable. We weren't talking about medical procedures anyway, we were discussing having your eye color changed, a p...

they kinda did, but inventing somthing doesn't mean squat if what you made at the time was crap. (See Newton)
