The Linux magazine conducted an interview with the ex-mayor of Munich, who was responsible for Limux: https://www.linux-magazin.de/ausgaben/2019/10/interview-2/
Among other things, he tells of "spontaneous" visits by Steve Ballmer and Bill Gates. A wild tale of "business as usual" corruption, illustrating how the MS Mafia operates.

The U.S. Air Force Plans to 'Grow' Runways with Bacteria: https://www.popularmechanics.com/military/research/a27891820/bacteria-runways-air-force/
These war-mongering Gi Joe's would be better off focusing on growing healthier bacteria's in their own bodies first, cause their current ones are clearly massively malfunctioning, making them paranoid, aggressive and stupid.

Energy vs Waste: https://www.theautomaticearth.com/2019/11/energy-vs-waste/
“Erwin Schrodinger has described life as a system in steady-state thermodynamic disequilibrium that maintains its constant distance from equilibrium (death) by feeding on low entropy from its environment—that is, by exchanging high-entropy outputs for low-entropy inputs. The same statement would hold verbatium as a physical description of our economic process. A corollary of this is that an organism cannot live in a medium of its own waste products.” - Herman Daly & Kenneth Townsend

George Church and Eric Schmidt Talk Synthetic Biology at SynBioBeta 2019: https://synbiobeta.com/video-former-google-ceo-eric-schmidt-talks-synthetic-biology-at-synbiobeta-2019/
#Comment: A ceremony at high temple of materialism, in a country where techno-capital replaced religion, civil society & sanity. The stark irony of super wealthy Jeffrey Epstein friends discussing how to control the wonders of life with machines owned by very few - in search of profits & the illusive ghost in the shell. Joe Mengele laughing from his grave.
