1:41 with the partial success of splicing plant genome the humans were able to now sport wood.

[@ALLSciFi88]

There were even attempts to add photosynthesis pathways from native plants into the human genome, with partial success so far.

We shouldn't give up on adding some plant genome in our DNA it may help.

First sentence and I laughed so very hard. It’s just like watching “ talking in normal voice”. (Example : Witch king talking in normal voice.) That caught me offguard.

What if in real life that embedded into our DNA the memories of an advanced civilization that is older than a million years old and we've been unknowingly tapping into it?

I see three that appear to be nude above the waist. You really want pockets.

[@sintanan469]

Give Deathworlders a read. Most the galaxy with habitable planets are temperate and calm, resulting in only needing clothes for utility purposes or extreme weather. End result is most the galaxy are nudists.

What is the functional purpose of clothing?

[@sintanan469]

@@chuckknight8257 Vests or overalls for pockets; harnesses, hard hats, boots, other PPE. Utility gear. Jewelry for fashion statements.

If a gorilla were to uplift itself, it might get larger fangs and thicker skin and would likely ignore bigger brains what mods would we ignore, not knowing what we missed out on?

At first we would focus on intelligence due to exponential growth, then longevity and health, then cosmetic and warfare.

[@TrueHolarctic]

​@spaceengineeringempire4086 i think longevity and heath would be last and warfare and cosmetics first. Sadly, scientists dont fund the science

[@logangraham2956]

@@spaceengineeringempire4086 i feel like cosmetics would probably come after intelligence due to economic reasons which would soon lead to warfare and then MAYBE longevity and health to help counteract the negatives of the warfare.
