See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

'We can already use DNA, for example, to make electronic circuits so it's possible to think of a smart yoghurt some time after 2020 or 2025, where the yoghurt has got a whole stack of electronics in every single bacterium. You could have a conversation with your strawberry yogurt before you eat it.'

I keep trying to think what the yoghurt would say and all I can come up with is "God no please please please oh Jesus help me please don't eat me I'll do anything just please please no," and really I'd just as soon it kept quiet.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

More like you could create a clone of your mind. You'd still die.

But from your persepective, would you notice a difference?

And yeah, I'm really not seeing an upside to creating talking yogurt. Or fearful airplanes.]

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I keep trying to think what the yoghurt would say and all I can come up with is "God no please please please oh Jesus help me please don't eat me I'll do anything just please please no,"

Heh.

I'd respond, "Dude, you're a bastard child of science. It truly sucks to be you. I'll be doing you a favor; trust me."

Good times, good times. If they've been married the one year, she kills with paper, right?

I'm sure JZ has a book of medieval literature or marriage customs around somewhere that's heavy enough to snap someone's neck in a poetically just fashion.
