While i doubt it’ll get me banned anywhere, it does get me very weird looks if i bring it up in meat space, so I’ll bring it up here instead!
As a product of totally random processes selecting for absolutely nothing in particular humans are pretty cool, but from any kind of intelligent perspective we are a failure. Our teeth don’t fit, our backs don’t work right, we have organs with no other purpose than to kill us. God or evolution, which ever, has put in an absolutely minimum wage effort into our bodies and i think we should strive to do better, to be better. I understand being against current possibilities (I’m not getting magnets in my hands or the musk brain chip), but to be against transhumanism in general is completely insane.
I definitely agree with this notion. It’s a miracle we’re alive in general. Our organs are so inefficient that it’s frustrating to say the least.
I’m on board with trans humanism so long as whatever firmware for whatever takes the place of certain organs is completely FOSS. No proprietary software at all. I don’t trust the Microsofts and Apples of the world to not have backdoors in them.

Isn’t apple is actually decent about not having back doors? but you’d absolutely have to have apple brand everything or your brain disconnects from your body. I’d also add not being easily wirelessly accessable, it’s already kinda insane that pacemakers can be hacked.
I guess I remembered it wrong. I was going to post the article where the FBI wanted Apple to unlock a shooter’s iphone and they complied. But apparently they didn’t comply and the FBI just exploited their way into getting into it.
Nevertheless, they use closed source software and I still wouldn’t trust it.
