Never underestimate the capacity of someone to do something stupid. No matter how clever they may be.
Like this trying to edit out myostatin, I doubt that the guy doing it will have stopped to think to himself "wait, maybe myostatin is actually important to a person's health". No, he'll have seen that myostatin is used to stop muscles growing, make the link to no myostatin = huge gainz and decided based on that.
Brody Smith
Who would not want to edit their DNA and become superhuman? You could adjust your I.Q then turn yourself into looking like one of the monsters from the film Alien with all their abilities and hunt down the sub-creatures and save the planet?

>by removing the gene for myostatin This won't end well
Myostatin albeit might sound like something we should get rid of to become Hulk-mode without even exercising, it's actually what limits the muscles from expanding un-eavenly.
Also it affects internal organs so if you have heart problems or something its gonna get worse.
Joseph Nguyen
That bet sucks. He WILL need a new heart if he manages to get his myostatin levels low enough. Though on the bright side if they manage to get him an artificial one that doesn't suck he'll be able to keep his superhuman(yes low myostatin = can actually beat a professional weight lifter who has normal levels) physique without having to keep changing hearts because of irregular growths.
If worse comes to worse he might die of malnutrition or a ripped stomach because he'll have to gozzle down mass quantities of food to keep his muscles fed which would at the time siphon a lot of nutrients(because nothing limits its growth/hyperthrophy) unlike a normal person's
Why not just alter our DNA so we can interact with machines better?
We're already machines albeit out of flesh if we balance out it with the metal/digital ones we'll become perfect.

Think he means in a human body. If there is more fat than muscles, muscles will still weigh more than fat.

No, muscle is far more dense than fat, so an inch of muscle added to your arm will be heavier than an inch of fat. It is really simple, user, it's science, not a meme.
Leo Johnson
Density nigger. Same volume of tissue--muscle weighs more than fat because it's denser. I've cut down a lot of cadavers, seen lardasses and bodybuilders, body builder legs weighed more than skinny fats because of this fact.

>After removing the gene with the powerful CRISPR gene manipulation technique, he then inserts in to his body a copy of the corrected DNA, hoping he would obviously gain superhuman powers.
We can gain superhuman powers simply by awakening our siddhis. In the ancient Sanskrit language of India, the word 'siddhi' means 'perfection'. In its most common usage, the word 'siddhi' refers to an ability that is a natural and inherent faculty of our true identities as eternally alive souls. The soul is smaller than an atom and larger than the universe. The soul is infinitely small and infinitely large. The soul is ALL-PERFECT AND EVER-PERFECT. The soul is the storehouse of ALL ENERGY, ALL POWER AND ALL STRENGTH. The soul is PURE CONSCIOUSNESS. The soul possesses ALL siddhis and there are an INFINITE number of siddhis. Among all of these siddhis, there are considered to be eight major siddhis. Siddhis can be awakened through a variety of methods. In Patanjali's Yoga Sutras IV.1, it is stated:
"Siddhis may be attained through birth, the use of herbs, incantations, self-discipline or samadhi."
Here is a list of the eight major siddhis (in no particular order):
Laghima siddhi: Making your body and/or anything else as light as you want.
Garima siddhi: Making your body and/or anything else as heavy as you want.
Mahima siddhi: Making your body and/or anything else as large as you want.
Anima siddhi: Making your body and/or anything else as small as you want.
Prapti siddhi: Having unrestricted access to any and/or all places.
Prakamya siddhi: Fulfillment of whatever you desire.
Isitva siddhi: Control over any and/or all of the laws of nature.
Vasitva siddhi: Being able to control any and/or all beings.
"A man is a god in ruins. When men are innocent, life shall be longer, and shall pass into the immortal, as gently as we awake from dreams." - Ralph Waldo Emerson (end of part 1)
Hudson Edwards
I can see getting lucky by adding a gene, but I don't see how you're going to remove one.
Carson Brown
(start of part 2) You can awaken your siddhis through samyama, which is a state of consciousness in which one perceives the fundamental level of 'reality' where a perceiving subject (like you, for example) is merged with your perceived object. For example, to achieve laghima siddhi, you have to perform samyama on the lightness of a feather (for example) so that you become as light as that feather (or that you become the lightness of that feather, if you want to look at it that way). (end of part 2)
Matthew Jenkins
I'd probably just go to a furry convention and get pussy
Or fuck a dog
Ryan Young
(start of part 3) Some people sneer at the siddhis because they do not believe in their existence, others because they think it is noble and spiritual to despise them. Both attitudes proceed from ignorance. Like that kike Jesus Christ said truly "Be in the world, but not of the world." If you realise that this world is naught but Maya and are not attached to it, then you can play with it and have fun with it. Siddhis only keep you tied to samsara if you are attached to them. The siddhis in and of themselves are neither good nor evil, but represent the next level of both humanity's physical evolution and humanity's mental evolution. Siddhis are only a spiritual hazard if you are attached to them. Yogis know that the siddhis can be a distraction to the true spiritual goal of moksha if they are not used properly and that is why they NEVER use their siddhis for ego-based reasons, but ONLY to help other people without ANY desire to be rewarded and also as calling cards to make people accept that there is indeed a spiritual component to 'reality' that exists beyond the reach of the five senses. Anime won't ever BECOME 'real' because anime is ALREADY 'real' in an infinite number of universes. Anime is not 'real' here, but it IS 'real'. What we call 'reality' is illusory and therefore malleable. NOTHING is impossible in a universe that is ILLUSORY TO BEGIN WITH. EVERYTHING IS ILLUSORY, EXCEPT FOR PURE CONSCIOUSNESS ITSELF (WHICH IS INFINITE AND ETERNAL). I shall use manojava siddhi (the ability to instantly take your body wherever your mind goes) to teleport into a universe where anime is 'real' and make sweet, sweet love to one of my waifus there. Indians can teach us how to enter these other universes to make sweet, sweet love to our waifus through manojava siddhi. (end)

We're getting head transplants, and since the progressive system has taken a rise recently, I don't think it'll be too long before this becomes a trend.

The mind and body are intertwined. What happens in the mind echoes in the body and vice versa.
If you place a white person's consciousness in a black man's body they'll start acting more niggerdly than usual.
But
if you place a black subhuman's consciousness in a cloned "white" body he/she will start acting like a white person aka not a chimp, well not entirely but more than enough to be a benefit to humanity.
A body is a vehicle, if you drive a ferrari then you'll have more of a chance to be rich on the inside, though it's not always so, human nature and all.
Josiah Harris
Fake news. Human DNA cannot be modified as easily as plasmids. You need a way for the DNA to enter a human cell.

well its already known what the drawbacks are since there where mutations and the chinks actually modified some dogs without it.
One of the effects are that bone formation gets reduced, or in other words you get rheumatoid arthritis.
So you are like a super muscular granny, that breaks a bone when you hit something
Jordan Smith
Obviously, at least one thing exists (you). So we know that something exists (you). If something exists, then everything MUST exist. This means that anime exists, albeit in an infinite number of other universes. Manojava siddhi can enable us to teleport into these universes where anime is 'real'.

If something exists, then everything MUST exist How does existance for a singular being prove the existance of everything else? >in an infinite number of other universes Which are completely unreachable to you and everyone else. Also if that is true, then that means that at least there is a universe which has sent people across the gap of universes, but this has not taken place for there is no evidence this has happened therefore it is incorrect and there are no such things as infinite universes Also anime is 2D so how precicely would you make it compatible to a universe were stuff is 3D?

A single CRISPR edit can introduce hundreds of random mutations into your DNA. This kind of thing will be a shit-filter for all the science-is-my-religion-tards. Muh transhumanism biohaxx0r shit is a ploy to fuck up your ability for higher consciousness and connection with divinity. /x/ aside, it's also just completely stupid in a totally material, practical sense.

This is pure retardation. It would only have a tiny effect because most behavior is regulated by the brain. The biochemical things that happen in the body have only a small effect on things. Especially after age 20 or so.

if you have a primitive radio will it capture radio signals and emulate them into sound just as well as a modern and complex radio?
Same deal basically.
If you wake up as a black guy tomorrow you will keep your memory but your future actions/reasoning will not be the same as how you were before. You essentially become something like a mental doppelganger. You're dead, your body that is but you live on another life in another body, past memories or not.
That's what I mean by it's very important to have both a perfect mind and perfect body. Even if you lack the first your perfect body will let you be able to develop it thanks to the specific genes and brain it comes with.
Now the only hard part here is to properly "exhume" the energetic consciousness of a person in order to transfer it. Rejection is impossible unless the new host body isn't brain dead/already taken but you will change just like your body.
Jonathan Young
(checked) Even Satan knows. I think the /x/ stuff is going to start coming back online soon so they have to fuck up people's genetics before that happens. Gotta sell fake super powers to people through thinly disguised enslavement mechanisms like genetic modification and transhumanist tech, before they realize the real powers are already there to be had.
