Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.

This 'n?
It has the most beautiful message, too: Life finds a way.
There's no stopping this disaster at this point. It was nice being the dominant species.
We now have definitive proof that human intelligence isn't the net evolutionary positive we thought it was.
We were alright until we got domesticated by wheat.
“Oh look I make nice fibers for baskets, plant lots of me.”
“Hey did you know that you can eat my seeds? Try it!”
“No, that’s not spoiled porridge, it’s delicious beer!”
“Alright, bitch, how you gonna feed everybody without me? Where you gonna get your beer from? Now get anxiety and sit in traffic.”
The longer con is that Earth needed plastic but couldn't make it itself. Wheat is just a link in that long chain to get us to this point.
Seems likely that we'll be better at making things go extinct than un-extinct for a while, yet.
I'd argue man has an obligation to restore species we had a hand in extinguishing.
Dodo, thylacine, passenger pigeon.
Start with them.
The company is targeting the Dodo and Thylacine (though this article didn't mention that one)
Neanderthals?
Yea, let's bring it to the ethics committee
Yes! Let's bring back the dodo, everyone wants to know what they taste like deep fried
may see approximations of creatures
We cannot resurrect extinct species. These would be hybrid species.
No best case scenario it’s still a Frankensteins monster.
So dont be a dick to our creations lest they murder our loved ones? Got it.
