Comment on Team turns DNA into a rewritable hard drive

So a virus can rewrite a cat in to a dog or a giraffe? You’re talking small changes over a long time. A 400TB drive that you can only change 800KB every century or so would be useless.

…no?

I said the mechanism exists. Dna is rewritable by it’s very nature-which is what you had issue with: the DNA, not the the thing doing the writing.

At no point did I imply that there’s something rewriting entire genomes.

  OK buddy. I don’t think you’re being genuine here so I’m just going to block and move on.

    It sounds like you are pulling ideas out of your ass then getting angry about them.
    
    Better block everyone else on Lemmy, too.

    And I don’t think you can read very well.
