Which heightened/different senses of other animals would you most like to experience (while still being human)? (lemm.ee)

Of the senses we're familiar with or aware of, anyway, e.g. taste/smell/hearing/vision/touch.

I hadn’t even considered the degree of finesse one could develop until you mentioned a router. Feeling a text vs a call, diagnosing an issue with an electric motor by proximity, instantly noticing loose wiring, feeling when malware begins spinning up processes, etc..

That's a cool point actually. I doubt your senses would get quite that fine, but there's still a lot of data transmission you'd be able to feel.
