You're looking to adopt a baby?
I wanted to clone my friend CRON and sell them as pets

we had to shut down cuz too many pets were getting abused.

So make them slightly "less than human" -- custom-made Androids and Gynoids.
• Incapable of reproduction.
• Full mental and physical maturity in 3-5 years.
• 17-year lifespans.
• Non human skin colors (i.e., Magenta, green, et cetera) to distinguish them from real humans.
• Non-human hair colors (same).
• Fully indoctrinated with, and obedient to Asimov's Laws.
• Specialized types (i.e., laborer, butler/maid, gigolo/mistress, et cetera).
Umm, hard no. Engineer them to be more suitable as slaves is definitely going the wrong direction. It just sounds like I want a helpless, agency-less pet I can f**k.

this whole subject of "bringing back diana" is incredibly, devastatingly poignant. she may not have been a protean mega-brain like Einstein or a determined noble heart like Schweitzer, she certainly was no mother Teresa in terms of her devotion to the low-born. she could have been like the rest of the royal family and just did ribbon cuttings and other ceremonies like what was nominally expected of somebody of her station, but she chose to put herself out there and be an attention-getter for things that weren't exactly fashionable at the time. this alone puts her IMHO in the top rank of humans in terms of their humanity. somebody like madonna could have done the same noble things but she just chose to ostentatiously rut and party and self-aggrandize herself in the most vulgar manner possible, she had the star power to turn people's hearts if she wanted to but she did not. Diana DID. so that is my statement in rudimentary defense of Diana, not saying she should or even could be cloned as the person she was. she lived in the metaphysical fabric of her space/time, she was a person of her space/time, and that space-time is permanently past and can't be re-established. without that space-time existing in the present, the miracle of cloning couldn't even be intelligently considered. the same kind of thing could be said of anybody at all from the past.

It is poignant.
I sympathize with the OP. Its like wanting to bring back your mama (except with your mama, you yourself, and your siblings are already naturally occurring semi clones of your departed parent). But even if human cloning were possible in the present day (its all too likely to be possible in the future) cloning is still not 'bringing the person back'.
I dont know if anyone here is actually "attacking Dianna" though.
