Only problem is gender at it's most basic would be binary

Biological sex is for meatbags and historians. Get in the crystal computing matrix that’s in orbit, us and 300 billion consciousnesses are going to explore the universe.

Relativistic speed? Easy because our spaceship is the size of a pack of cards. Time an issue? Let’s adjust the rate of consciousness on the fly, speeding up and slowing down time perception. Hey what’s that cool neutron star?! Send a copy of my consciousness to explore it for 10,000 years then transmit the memories back when ready. For vacation, I was downloaded into a wolf body for two weeks. I ran wild with a pack of dogs on a planet untouched by human hands.

But what are you going to simulate, being a human? That’s like getting a Ferrari and driving around a horse track.

I'm sure the billions of minds on the collective brain have come up with cool shit in the billions of years they've been going.

Is it too much to want space travel without transhumanism? No cyborgs or real ai just people traveling the stars living in the moment

I think we are too small and temporary for that.

Damn the limitations of modern technology :( We'll have to wait for quantum computers.
