This is Dolly. The older Anons will for sure remember her. It's been 26 years since they cloned this sheep but not much happened since then. Why didn't cloning take off? With modern technology we should be able to achieve much more then back in the 90s.

It has, but only for the rich and useful. not the poor and usless.

who cares about some old sheep granpa. no cap, read your aarp. miss me with this old mcdonald had a farm trash fr fr

dummy, you can clone your pets now.

>why didn't cloning take off
I don't know how to tell you this but they've been cloning people for years
They just don't last very long

The sitting president is a clone what are you talking about?
Levi Torres
Cloning prevents the white genocide because then white people can just clone themselves. They needed to keep it under the wraps under the guise of muh ethics and sell the tech to China

Cloning of complex animals has very little purpose and a bunch of inherent issues that have not yet been solved.
It will take off as part of the toolkit once we have better control of the genome in the next few decades. Crispr was one of the most important final steps and the recent solving of protein folding is another
Angel Murphy
why clone when you can gene edit?
Cooper Butler
First they cockblock everyone from developing techs by buying up everything or cutting off funds or demoralizing (ie A computer built based on human brain will threaten mankind!)
Then they hoard all the techs
And release it for the goys to consume
Liam Garcia
Because we learned that cloning also replicated the age of the animal that the cells were taken from.
So if an animal has a 30 year life span and you take cells from them at 25, the expected life span of the clone is only 5 years.

lol. bullshit

Close enough.

not close at all

There was a very sad story I heard more than ten years ago about a man and his bull. At the time I had a bull, so it really touched me. We bottle fed and you get really close. ANYWAY dude loved his bull, bull died, AG dept at some university offers to clone the bull for him. It nearly killed him later... I think I heard this on NPR one Sunday, very long story. Even after it nearly killed him he didn't give up.
Nathan Barnes
You're half-right
The telomere lengths remain the same aswell as other forms of DNA-degredation/mutation depending on the cell the clone was made from which does of course affect the life span of the animal but it's not the only factor that may effect the overall life-span of a cloned animal. Similar tests have shown cloned animals to live fairly long lives. But this could be related to factors such as living conditions in controlled environments.

Yo satan, the chinese don't need cloning tech have been cloning themselves for at least 2000 years.

I found it. Second Chance... Cloned Bull Is Second Chance. In taking a chance on an aging bull named Chance, veterinarians at Texas A&M University say they've achieved a cloning milestone, reports CBS News Correspondent Jim Axelrod. Ralph Fisher never thought he'd get another Chance. "We knew he was old, and that he was dying," the bull's owner explains...

Never thought about it that way. Makes perfect sense. You're very smart. I like you. Wanna tongue my anus now?

i always wonder this about crisper
ever SCIENCE DUDE was ranting about it a few years back, about it being a cure for cancer and aging.
eventually being able to modify your genes at will
then out of nowhere everyone stopped talking about it

Clone tissue would be at its most valuable if taken from an individual at a young age. Most of the old vampire elites probably missed the boat on that one.
Trying to clone organs on their own is fucking hard though, tissue crafting manually is excruciatingly drawn out and tedious.
Instead what can be done is to have healthy stem cells taken from the host and implant them into a new (biologically compatible host) in proximity or within the organ you want a clone of.
Due to biomarkers in the stem cell, it will recognize where it is and start churning out the desired tissue. (Kind of like gene-seed in WH40K)

>tech company makes breakthrough
>"hey look what we can do! pls give funding!"
>public gets in a tizzy over possibilities, sci-fi novelists feel vindicated and celebrate with those deluxe hot pockets
>tech company suddenly and mysteriously shuts down, all scientists and names involved disappear off the face of the earth
>shady public relations guy: "yeah the tech didn't work out, go eat your goyslop and stop asking about it"
many such cases
Ryder Lee
Its sort of true. A big part of the aging process is accumulating genetic damage. If you take a dna sample from a 30 year old the sample has 30 years of damage. Put that in a new embryo and the embryo starts off prematurely aged.
Telomeres in particular basically act as a countdown to death although there are treatments to lengthen them that work better on embryos than grown organisms
Nathan Robinson
Yeah, that was pretty much the last I heard of cloning, Owners being disgruntled that the cat wasn't 100% the same personality-wise.
