Also please reroute the food pipe to not use the air pipe

They are forgetting that TERRIBLE design choice where if you accidentally bite the inside of your cheek it swells up making it easier to bite it on accident again and again.

[–] SpruceBringsteen@lemmy.world 32 points 6 days ago (1 children)

You're just supposed to bite that bit off. Otherwise it's just going to keep happening.

Humans do bioluminisce, it's just too weak for human eyes and most detectors.

We need to have some process engineers look at the pregnancy and birthing process, there's much room for improvement. Maybe take a totally new approach to it, it's just not it.

[–] ICastFist@programming.dev 4 points 4 days ago

The engineer solution: back to egg laying, which also fixes menstruation

  • Eating and breathing pathways no longer intersect. This should prevent the bug when food could block the airway and result in death.
[–] scops@reddthat.com 25 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Yeah, it's crazy to me that people believe we were "intelligently designed" when our food hole and breathing hole are so close that we can only use one at a time, and that our waste dumping grounds are right next to the amusement park.

[–] Sonor@lemmy.world 4 points 4 days ago

you mean the slightly more muddy amusment park, that is next to the new, purprose built one, right?

2.0? Bruh, humans are still on pre-v1 beta

Frankly, I don't know how anyone can look at the absolute shit show that is the human body and go "yup, this was totally intelligently designed"

[–] captain_aggravated@sh.itjust.works 26 points 6 days ago (2 children)

Apparently a lot of males are still in alpha.

Can we also fix the depression glitch where happiness points aren't collected and your brain energy bar depleats completely with no way of regeneration without hacking the brain with 3rd party tool antidepressants.

I would have thought eating and breathing from the same hole would have been in this release 😞 guess I'll just have to wait till 3.0

Add new receptors to be able to feel wetness.
This is it cold or wet thing we have going on is just crappy design.

Mosquitos are not humanity though.

[–] Sebbe@lemmy.sebbem.se 30 points 6 days ago (3 children)

The mosquito. By far the worst part of the human body!

If teeth regenerate, do we have to constantly chew on things like rodents? Or is it an as-needed thing?

I'd like to reengineer the mosquito to draw blood samples, identify viruses, then create and spread vaccinations.

  • remove redundant form of hemoglobin

Ah yes let’s make the entire system vulnerable so a single attack vector can shutdown every node.

[–] TropicalDingdong@lemmy.world 29 points 6 days ago (3 children)

Ahem... maybe new players forgot this, but humans have been bioluminescent since the oxygenic respiration patch ages ago.

That’s going to take some time, it’s a kernel bug.

I’d like someone to at least look into the whole ADHD thing. It’s been going on for some time now without any word on why it’s there, or what it’s for- and aside from funny and relatable memes, it’s yet to provide any positive results.

I'd like to request a bug fix: Eyelashes falling into eyeball. Need to fix the physics so they probably spring away or wash out easier.
