Ethic scandal

The journal published findings exploring the DNA of physical appearance traits of Uighur men from Tumxuk in 2019. One of the authors of the paper on DNA phenotyping said he had been unaware of the origins of the DNA samples. Springer Nature was supposed to strengthen its ethics guidelines regarding "vulnerable groups of people" per the New York Tiumes report.[4]

gollark: My (E2E, lategame) ore acquirer and processor. It uses a bunch of sieves running on soul sand, gravel and dust to make ore pieces and gems and such, as well as a void ore miner (I resent EnvironmentalTech, but apparently you need the crystals from it), as well as a laser drill, as well as an ender chest from the lunar mining site. It uses Ender IO machines for smelting/some grinding because they're really, really fast, Mekanism 5x ore processing (which constantly ends up backlogged) for a few rarer things, and 4x ore processing (still horribly backlogged) for most of the rest.
