And those important organs that are outside the blood-brain barrier, but are hugely important, like the eyeballs, the tongue, etc? And look at it this way - you get to see the same face after, rather than looking at a dead man walking.
The optic nerve does a hell of a lot of pre-processing, with a LOT of data. Even with the pre-processing, the part of the brain that processes vision is huge.
And then there's the corpus callosum. While sthe spinal cord measures between 1 and 1.5 cm thick, it's readily apparent in brain cross-sections that the corpus callosum is much thicker.
They've been able to sever and reconnect spinal cords for a while now. The reason it's not all that easy with accident victims is the damage caused by the initial trauma. Look at that guy with the penis transplant - worked just fine, bhis girlfriend is pregnant
Astronaut? Not much demand there, and robots give a far better bang for the buck.
Writer? Hahahahahahaha. Writer's average incomes have been declining for a decade.
Artist? They're usually not worth much until after they assume room temperature.
Lawyer? There are already far too many, and as such they have to gouge every customer they get. That's why 60% of family law cases have one side represent themselves, and the other side is using legal aid lawyers.
Manager? When everything is automated, you don't need people with people management skills.
African birth rates have stabilized at 4.5 per mother. That means continued growth. Continued rises in life span will also contribute. Welcome the your new 4 horsemen of the apocalypse overlords.
Your figures need to be adjusted. Africa is no longer lowering it's birth rate. It's been stuck at 4.5 for a while. This means that world population will continue to grow, and may hit 12 billion by 2100.
How long until they start checking people's DNA and say "we have data that looks like a section of your DNA. We have copyrighted it, and you can no longer reproduce it - not in offspring, and not in your own cells. You can either stop (by killing yourself) or take a monthly subscription to license it. Have a nice life or drop dead - your call."
It's dying. Just look around. People are fed up with libtard "philosophy." Ask yourself why the majority of millennials in the US are in favor of social democracy instead of US-style capitalism and regulatory capture.
I see nothing but good coming from this. Less of a proliferation of games that need you to continuously buy stuff to play. We have laws against advertising to children here, but this is exactly what these apps do.
Kind of reminds me of a former boss. His 6-disk raid failed. I asked him why he didn't replace the failed drive and do a restore. Turns out he figured that there was not that much chance of a second drive failure, so he ran it for months. 6 tb of his favorite pr0n gone.:-)
We did it with tobacco. Saved a lot of misery and a lot of lives. Drastic situations call for drastic measures, and damn political correctness. And obesity is a deadly epidemic that is spreading fast.
I suspect when someone meets the right woman, her past isn't all that important. Same as we don't expect a bride to wear white, or are scandalized by divorced women dating, or blended families with children from both parents.
Here's how the fashion model / bond girl Tula handled it after she was outed. She went on to be a playboy centerfold, her and her second husband had a child (a story in itself) so... I think that people would be hard pressed to say that a sex change was wrong for her, or that the results were freakish.:-)
There are a small number no bullshit people here, but they are a minority.
Let me guess - they mostly agree with you on mostly everything.
The "I am correct and I am not trying to be popular" community has experienced a shock earlier today. Modders dealt another blow, and the dead bodies of roman_mir's comments were buried by a horde of Slashdot users. All that remains is the funeral service. Doesn't take the Great Kreskin to figure that out. Slashdot confirms it - your point of view is dead.:-)

If I was offered a head transplant I'd immediately perform a doctor transplant.
What if your body is just dying for one? Someone else's body might then look better than being dead.

Yeah. "you" are the head. It makes zero sense to talk about transplanting a head.
Unless you're talking about a penis transplant (an addadicktomy), in which case it makes perfect sense :-)

And then we have stupidity like this bogus story
Nope - Africa's rate is stuck at 4.5 despite economic and educational improvements.
But at $20 million dollars, it's definitely something you don't want to lose your head over. Too damn expensive!

Proof.
Actually, it's unreasonable to make any assumptions of what's going on in a black hole at this point. We just don't know.
You're going to hate the facts. More than 1/3 of American adults are obese. Obesity is #2, right behind tobacco at #1, as causes of death.
And with fewer people smoking because of the stigma associated with it from shaming smokers, obesity becomes #1. Sounds like a deadly epidemic to me.

It's wingdings and dingbat fonts all the way down ...

Fair enough. People don't seem to realize that as HD disks grow, the probability of a second failure during a restore increases.
Yep. Even the aether is making a sort of comeback as a "universal substrate".
