@DarkMatter25 rfids are easy to remove. They also are almost impossible to put into you without your awareness. The read range of an implantable rfid is measure in millimeters, not larger units. If a tag actually exists, there should be no issue in removing it. If it doesn't that is another issue completley.

There are lots of experiments adding metabolic pathways to organisms, of all levels of complexity. The term you want to search for is "metabolic burden". Also, you can't live off of carbs alone. It's not as simple as fix this one "inefficient" (implies you understand who the organism works in in entirety to make that claim…

ah, of course. First, let's not assume what my beliefs are. It never works right. So, let's start talking about diseases now. You didn't lead with that but I understand that backtracking is needed sometimes. Huntingtons isn't like eye color, but you know that. If you find selecting on appearance wrong, don't use it as an…

I have had experience with multiple locations in the US, South America, and Europe. I figure that maybe there might be some difficulties in some place that I haven't been but also.... It's "a lot" to start a company, the way that it is "a lot" to run a responsible lab. With the bar being fairly low in the states, there…

I am a company that will middle man materials shipping, with the one caveat that I won't help anyone acquire anything obviously stupid for "learning purposes". Thought Emporium used to get materials through me before they finally got around to incorporating. Dm me in somewhere not here, cause I so rarely come by anymore.…

Depends on your country and your paperwork on how hard it is to get them. It's more about your skill set and your tool access on if you can work with them. What is the hypothetical situation?

Probably wont be secondary effects on organs from an alteration to their master regulatory genes because 'people take hrt'..... dafuq? I eat oranges. Doesn't mean I should try replacing my left nut with a kumquat. And I would sound pretty confused if I just conflated the two things, right?

Are the moral and ethical questions still with us @Stella ? We still tryna figure out what violations of rights look like? I too think children are super happy when their parents make choices for them based off the parents values and aesthetics. Nothing makes a kid feel special to be altered without consent on genetic…

Based off this conversation and your other posts, you really should think about developing some skills sets before you aim for the ovaries. Despite, the hype, biology remains a bit more difficult that smacking a new battery in a phone.

Just make a company. It really isn't that hard. It just requires some responsibility.
-
Starting a company just means you fill out the paperwork and pay a fee. If you fill out paperwork in almost any other situation, will you go to jail? Your state (or nation) has a website where you can apply. Addgene requires a non profit btw. How's your hardware is the real question. Buying materials is easy once you are…

Sure. Do you have an idea of how any of that works or is this more like a thought experiment?
-
Ah, no, I think I misunderstood you. I didn't realize that the ten year amount there was for geneline work. Therapeutics sort of have a different usage. They're responsive. I think the word prophylactic is used here (not just for condoms), as that is the term we use when describing vaccines. They are prophylactic. So…

Therapeutic is already and has been an option for a long time. It is documented, it is used in clinics in the United Statesf. Each therapy is different with different roadblocks and conflicts which means they aren't just... magically available for all things. responsible HGGE is much further out than 20 years, impo.

You can buy HGH online in the states. The extraction and purification alone is not worth it.

How exactly does being a biohacker mean that killing half a dozen monkeys would be good numbers? The numbers suck no matter who presents them. And one doesn't get a special pass for crappy numbers and monkey killing just because one is a "biohacker". Why didn't it work? It was unsafe. They used money to rush the process.…

Clostridium sporogenes is already present in the guts of some of the population, so that sounds reasonable. However, a lot of gut biome stuff deals with lifestyle changes. C spor is in the soil which means we all have been exposed. You would want to look into the things that would keep it around, not just adding it. also,…

Oh, hmmm, I missed this. Hopefully you are still compiling. I personally would not at this time take aav-htert, but I have helped people develop it. I have worked with various groups, including consulting for Parrish right after she got her first injections. We both lived in Seattle at the time. I know some stuff that…

Not really interested in having a mentally unbalanced, power hungry, group of wealthy people start calling them selves shamans because they drink kale juice. It was interesting to listen to, if only a bit disturbing.

Got a list of things to discuss here. The first and foremost is that this is not a good idea for people to "achieve a goal" in being trans. This implies that I can edit the gay out of someone as well, and unless anyone is ready to tackle supporting that concept, we should all just curb the enthusiasm. If this in theory is…

Wouldn't you need to do this alteration in the somatic cells? What vector did you use? AAV holds up to 4.5k or so, lenti caps out at around 10k. You've got a chunk of SV40 in there but SV40 only holds up to 5k as well.
-
@ManiacBrainiac I have been working on this project for the last ...3(?) years. What you want to do is create a BAC, bacterial artificial chromosome. And you can already order the virus with the knock out. Just remember that you need a -80C freezer for viral storage, and liquid nitrogen for mammalian cell work.…

@Pritchdex @Midoriya "Something you might be interested in -- the U.S. Army did an experiment with high doses of vitamin A2 that extended the vision of test subjects by about 20nm. It's not much, but given that you can get rid of your (very minimal) IR vision whenever you want, it seems like a better (but less effective)…

Can you elaborate on your initial post here? Comments have already run the gamut from protocol repository to zine. None of which are actually peer reviewed in as much as there isn't in this community a pre established infrastructure of collaboration and verification of work. The very nature of the grinder ethos lends…

reposted from where I put it in the codes of conduct vs here at code of ethics. My apologies. So many shiny new rule sets. What are the methods for self policing? Will we start banning people who start with "so i don't have lido so I'm using ice..." and does that violate being inclusive? What if that person just needs…
-
Yep. Saw them both in the same space, clicked on the wrong one. My bad. Carry on. EDIT: removed comments as they are not on topic.

I'm gonna regret this, but it's all hypothetical, right? Swim should probably start altering his place in life, not altering his brain chemistry with different chemicals than the aforementioned happy pills and potentially harming himself. Swim seems to have given you some conflicting information. He is either dissatisfied…

The answer is the egg. You modify the egg. But also, yeah, one step at a time. Not gatekeeping here, but if you don't know what to modify, probably shouldn't modify.

When you're brainstorming a project like this, it's always important to ask yourself, why would the bacteria care about what you are doing? Then being extremeophiles isn't a bug, it's a feature, for them. Those bugs are features! Puns! Anyway. We only use extremeopgiles in really weird cases where you are engineering…
