Because the mods on this community would rather choose a source that they agree with than a source that's reliable.

This is a really well-reasoned response... Which probably means the mods will ignore it

Really? Damn. Either way, archive link in the comments would be preferred.

In the future when citing Reuters, please use one of Reuters' official outlet links (reuters.com, YouTube/Twitter from the Reuters account).

First of all, the Saudi Arabia-US petrodollar deal was signed in 1974. 2024-1974 < 80. I'm locking this post.

Please use the actual news site (CNN), not an aggregator link (Google News).

They were banned for telling someone that posted MBFC to shove [MBFC] up their ass. Decorum, please.

The articles suggest that it may be beneficial for Type 1, but that's unconfirmed. The nature of early-stage clinical trials is that people don't really know how things will work. That's the point of the trials.

Citing MBFC without a supporting claim that discredits the article is lazy and does not benefit the discussion. Comment removed.

Lemmy is a news aggregator. Why wouldn't you find out about an early-stage clinical trial on Lemmy?

Any such treatment, even if it works, would take decades to pass through the various approval stages before being released to the public.

It's not exactly the end of the world to implement terminator seeds... The reason it hasn't been implemented is because it's not an issue. This is a non-issue that's getting blown out of proportion.

Farmers will opt to maximize profits given all else equal. The license is a cost of goods sold and gets factored in when farmers decide what to plant. Farmers aren't forced to plant golden rice.
