Ripping off a post I just saw in the Isaac Arthur subreddit. Imagining we work out the technical ability. Examples they suggested were:

  • No periods
  • No balding
  • No nausea
  • No body odor
  • Resistance to obesity and muscle wasting

Good day, are you talking about urine sewage system and/or anal intercourse?

[–] Olhonestjim@lemmy.world 7 points 10 months ago (1 children)

How about a system which fully harvests nutrients, then compresses waste into smooth, solid, compact, sterile pellets which leave no residue and don't smell bad?

i think that’s the core issue. Whatever kind of sewage system you have is going to be a source of entertainment for some people

[–] L4rr@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

Well, one can hardly argue with that, kind sir.

I disagree - one hole for everything. Just imagine how many less medical clinics you need to go to.

Yes, I'm American.
