They goal is to get rich, they are mostly old, thinking I'm death in 10 years and fuck the next generations. If the country crashed, well then I can continue living in a Mansion in Dubai with an coctail in the hand. Plunder policy.

Scientists in the UK have launched the Synthetic Human Genome Project (SynHG), a controversial initiative to create human DNA from scratch[^1]. The Wellcome Trust has provided £10 million in initial funding to build synthetic chromosomes in test tubes and lab dishes over the next five years[^2].

The project aims to construct parts of human genetic code molecule by molecule, starting with building a single human chromosome that makes up about 2% of the total genome[^3]. Dr. Julian Sale from Cambridge's MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology calls it "the next giant leap in biology," saying the research could lead to disease-resistant cells for repairing damaged organs[^1].

While the technology could accelerate treatments for incurable diseases, critics warn of potential misuse. Professor Bill Earnshaw of Edinburgh University cautions that unscrupulous scientists could attempt to create biological weapons, enhanced humans, or creatures with human DNA[^1]. Dr. Pat Thomas, director of Beyond GM, raises concerns about the commercialization of synthetic body parts and data ownership[^1].

To address ethical concerns, the project includes a parallel social science program led by Professor Joy Zhang at the University of Kent[^1]. Dr. Tom Collins from Wellcome defends the funding decision, stating "This technology is going to be developed one day, so by doing it now we are at least trying to do it in as responsible a way as possible"[^1].

Well, growling, it depends, well done can set good accents. Anyway there are a lot of styles which don't use growling. There is a nice page which search similar groups of from those you put in, great to discover new groups.

You can also search your favorite style in Bandcamp, there you can find interesting groups which you can listen and also buy their tracks if you want.

Spain is a better choice, but in Germany are more people speaking English, on the other hand pretty right wing. But in academic circles it becomes irrelevant.

 

Palantir Technologies has emerged as one of the most influential and controversial tech companies in 2025, with its AI-powered data analytics platforms deeply embedded in military, intelligence, and civilian operations worldwide.

The company's CEO Alex Karp openly embraces its role in lethal operations, stating in February 2025 that Palantir exists "to scare enemies and on occasion kill them"[^1]. Under his leadership, Palantir has secured major contracts including:

  • A $795 million Pentagon deal[^2]
  • A $30 million Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) contract for deportation tracking[^2]
  • Partnerships with the Israeli military for targeting operations in Gaza[^2]
  • Integration into the UK's National Health Service[^3]

Critics warn that Palantir's technology enables mass surveillance and human rights violations. The company's software "swallows everything: hospital records, welfare files, license plate scans, school roll calls, immigration logs and even tweets" to create comprehensive profiles of individuals[^4].

Recent developments highlight growing concerns:

  • Protests erupted in June 2025 over Palantir's work with ICE and Israeli military operations[^5]
  • The company's stock surged 500% over the past year despite ethical concerns[^6]
  • Former employees warned the company is "normalizing authoritarianism under the guise of a 'revolution'"[^7]

Palantir's influence stems from its unique position as both a commercial enterprise and quasi-governmental entity, with deep ties to intelligence agencies since its founding with CIA funding[^8]. The company doesn't just sell to governments - it increasingly replaces government functions, operating as "an informant, an adjudicator, a silent partner in the construction of a predictive regime"[^9].
