Oh sure, well, for books, there’s Brave New World, which you already mentioned. You might also like The Windup Girl, where they have “New People” created for specific roles, and The Island, which deals with cloning mainly for organ harvesting. The Handmaid’s Tale explores similar themes of control over reproduction, though in a different way, and The Children of Men is another classic that dives into issues of societal control and the value placed on human life. Genesis and The Clone touch on related ideas too.

For movies, you’ve got The Matrix as an obvious choice, then Gattaca for genetic engineering themes, and Aeon Flux, which also involves heavily regulated human bodies. You might also like Logan’s Run, which depicts a society where life is strictly limited and controlled; and Moon, which explores the unsettling use of clones in isolation.

To weather they are worth reading / watching, that is kinda up to the individual i think. I found them enjoyable.

Oh I agree to all that, still. Maybe I’ve seen and read too many dystopian movies and books.

I wish I was kidding, but what are the chances that China will become the first country to mass produce their new population via in vitro?

Hey, just wanted to say that I really have become accustomed to seeing your daily game pics. I don’t know if you have been told this enough but good on you for sticking to it. Looking forward to seeing another one tomorrow ;)

While China is building a LOT of renewable energy and it should be applauded for it, it is not the only thing that are building. China accounted for 95% of the world’s new coal power construction activity in 2023, according to the latest annual report from https://globalenergymonitor.org/

The rule is ghat they need to make more money than the year before. A company that need to make money and does would not be an issue. But a company that needs to make more and more each year is the disease.

Dome keeper. It’s a really fantastic game.

It has already been clarified already that this happened right after her announcement (notice her clothes, location etc.) And that they held out on showing this to keep the momentum going.

You see them in lots of locations in Germany as well as the Netherlands and France

She deserves the recognition. Have been binging her other youtube content as well. She is really good.

I’ve literally been waiting for years now to get a decent affordable vr device that is just not linked to any shitty company :(

Covid has shown me that a lot of parents shouldn’t be. During the period that everybody was stuck at home there was a large amount of people that found out that they don’t know, or want, to raise a child and couldn’t wait to get them to schools or activities just to get rid of them.

My ex used to say “you can’t be expected to give up your social life just because you have a child”. My kids and I are better off now.

They also did not plan to include merida until people started pointing this out. They added her afterwards.

Really nice of you to do this, thank you. I would like to put my name in the hat for Miles morales. Best of wishes to you and yours.

You want an ebike that hits 40mph?

Honest question, what about the buzz-e?

Hey :D. Yeah, I had been trying to get one for half an hour but I kept getting that error. I honestly gave up and went to walk the dog. When I came back I tried again and immediately got one. I’m expecting it now by next week. How about you, did you get yours as well?

Same here. I’m just a bit scared that it will be sold out to quickly for me to grab one. :/

… ok, metal and punk are accepted as well.

I refuse to recognize X as anything else then either a letter or in reference to an unknown value.
