pretty interesting

[Fafine]

and it begins...

[Nightwalker]

FUCK YES! :D

[Culture_Vulture]

this is gonna bring about more disaster than anyone can imagine,
I can almost guarantee it

[orange7]

or maybe it can be used in medical science one day.


i dunno.. we'll have to wait and see if we are still alive after 2012.

[orange7]

FUCK YES! :D


woah calm down there.

this synthetic life form still can't jack off, so this is nothing to be happy about.

give it some more time then we'll see how worthy this news is

[ajax]

Some women could use mastitis...

On a serious note, could this be used some day to create bacteria etc that can possibly eat away at something like cancers? Or maybe could they eventually make cells and be used for something similar to stem cells?

[twitchyzero]

^ yes
i heard about this today
definately a breakthrough in the academia
man and i thought the human genome project was impressive

[CP.AR]

and so goes the Star Trek episodes where every single damn entity in space is a lifeform.

quick guys, draft up the Prime Directive!

[Qmx323]

whoa man

someday they can just fuckin' make people then u can just order a wife

LOL

[ShadowBun]

^ i thought you can order a wife right now too (in some places)

[keifun]

the adaptions with this breakthrough are endless...exciting find!

[124Y]

This is definitely a break-through. However, we won't know if this will benefit or harm humanity in the long run. Even though this synthetic lifeform is made to benefit humanity, it may end up causing more harm than intended (like DDT).

The potential for this to be used in medical science is beyond huge.
But before proper sanctions and international regulations are placed upon knowledge of this type of advancement, it spells nothing but trouble.

why would synthetic life forms jacking off make you happy? :confused:

[wobuffet]

is it just me or does everyone else hate reading long ass articles?

i prefer a pic of whatever the OP is getting to or a video that's a few minutes long that gets straight to the point. or cole's notes version.

[AVS_Racing]

wow, this is such a break through, really wonder how positive this would be

[Hehe]

This could be the big break through of century (last one I'll give it to Einstein's Relativity theories)

Imagine in years we can create life form for very specific tasks. The possibilities are endless.

[orange7]

^

ya.. we may even be able to recreate extinct animals.

That would be crazy!

[BlacknJean]

^i would recreate ur mom and ass to mouth her every night

[orange7]

lol.. nt but you are not going to be my only fail.

[Mugen EvOlutioN]

hmmmmm Synthetic.......................pussy anyone?

You call that long? :confused:

That's the problem with kids nowadays - they want everything delivered to them, NOW.

If we can do it, it's possible that some alien many millions of years ago did the exact same thing & planted a couple of these on Earth and see what happens. Our existence could just be an experiment.

[GLOW]

1 step closer to....resident evil.... :p

OMG we should SO put it on Mars and see what happens.
