This is an especially stupid prepper plan

  1. You're totally safe on a Pacific island, it's not like sea levels are going to rise.

  2. Genetic engineering is totally possible when the vast majority of humanity has been wiped out.

  3. What apocalypse scenario is solvable via genetic engineering? Maybe a super pandemic, but a vaccine is way easier.

The obsession with genetic engineering all comes back to eugenics

Yeah, supporting every css feature in the world is a tall order. I would love if:

  1. Servo supported a small but useful subset of css features (e.g. just grid and flexbox for layout)

  2. Servo was embeddable like a WebView or electron.

Then you could use the supported subset and not have to worry about supporting every crazy feature, and hopefully get a faster lighter WebView for it.

But even that's a lot of work.

I think the community has tried to pick up the project again recently, but it's obviously slow going without sponsorship and full time devs: https://servo.org/

George W. Bush is another example of class privilege that people bring up. But whatever you think of his policies, winning the presidency twice is quite the accomplishment...

Charles II of Spain is another example of noble privilege that people bring up, but whatever you think of his reign, being that inbred and still living to 38 is quite the accomplishment.
