I saw an effort at trying to systematize solarpunk elsewhere that felt a bit confused, but it reminded me of this. I’m not typically inclined to try to taxonamize everything, but I’ll admit that the appeal definitely isn’t lost on me. This felt useful.
Both, if it were an option. Somewhat of a cut corner because head-only cryo is cheaper (less space/meat) but also the health stuff plus I don’t have a strong sense of identity with it anyways (so if there are “ideal” people for this, I am one).
It is also kind of an escapism thing, easier basic existence (particularly less limitation/upkeep compared to my shut-in life now) yet actual purpose and travel/sights. Which fits here I’d say, though if things had been better from the start I probably wouldn’t feel this way.
I mean unlike our society cybernetics neurology and medcin are making hughe progress so maybe (depending where you life) you might get something like that in 10-15 years. It is probably harder to keep the Brain alive and give you sense than the control of the robotic Parts. Because Brain Machine Interfaces already exsist. Also a solution might be a VR headset +BMI which controls a second you while being in your room.
