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

Would complete immunity to radiation be a small change?

Would it actually be detrimental in the long run?

Pros: No more cancer

Cons: No more natural evolution

For this one there's actually technology in development right now.

Better repairing, see Deadpool. Cancer, missing limbs, teeth, w/e.

Maybe body odor could be an opt-in? For, like, sexy times between men who like that kind of thing...

A utility panel with usb ports, hard reset button, xd card slot, s-video port, etc, could be very useful.

Maybe installed on a butt cheek or back of a calf?

In all seriousness, a spinal realignment feature. Something that resets the joints & muscles in your back to factory default.

Dual opposable thumbs, now we can grab and open the water bottle with one hand!

I'd like to make bodily functions a bit less gross.
