Maybe store project-related stuff in a subdirectory of the project repo, and make everyone on the team get that so I can finally read the other guy's code.
My wife has Fibromyalgia so I'd love some cybernetic implant to dull her pain. Everything seems to hurt for her and something to block some of that and give some strength back to her hands and muscles would be great
only semi related, but there is some hope for us fibro peeps. There has been a lot of recent discoveries showing the autoimmune pathways of fibro and some of what may cause the issue. and we know for sure it is autoimmune now.
it isnt definitive answers but it IS progress and a heck of a lot more than we have had before!
If we're going full sci-fi, I want to fall asleep as soon as my head hits the pillow, then go STRAIGHT to REM. ...and actually stay asleep long enough for any of that to mean jack.
I'd rather not need sleep at all, with the option to do it sometimes for skipping time
But sleep is the best part of this dumpster-fire of a reality.
slow down my brain on demand so boring repetitive tasks feel fast forwarded.
Right now my tinnitus is killing me soooo CyberEars β¦ but if they comes with a subscriptions Iβll support my old one
I used to think a future with cyborgs would be pretty cool but personally, I'm not so hot on the idea anymore. The problem is that you would be beholden to whichever corporation or government manufactures and pays for parts. And who is to say that the support for whichever product that you've surgically implanted will be for life, and that you won't end up with useless landfill electronics sewed up inside of you.
Personally I think that if AI was ever made with altruistic purposes, that could fill the role of things like complex calculations and extra memory or a log. And good Augmented Reality could fill the role of interacting directly with entertainment and blocking out the outside world. And maybe one day there would be effective ways of interacting directly with computers through electrodes or even wirelessly. Although who knows how our privacy would be invaded then. There could be literal thought police in that case.
The problem is that the tech will always come from someone else. Imagine integrating this kind of tech into your life on such a deep level and then the person in charge of over seeing and maintaining this tech turns out to be an authoritarian nazi.
You mean like our real-life situation with Neuralink and the new Nazi called Elon Musk?
Cyborg butthole
None cause if I have to blast all the synths out there I donβt wanna lose pieces or, worse yet, die
I really want some of the existing NFC and LED implants that are available, but I keep putting it off because Iβm a bit squeamish about installing it myself and no professional service is near me.
Full cyborgisation. Just not one made by any capitalist entity.
Honestly, I'd go the full cyborg route, like in Ghost in the Shell. This would be my first step toward adjusting my consciousness to existing within and controlling an artificial environment, ultimately aiming for fully uploaded consciousness. I'd want to exist as a cyborg for a couple of decades, then I want to be uploaded into an autonomous space probe with as many sensor types as possible and left to explore the Universe (+/- relativistic speeds, I don't really care). BUT I'd also want the possibility to erase myself, because I most certainly wouldn't want to live forever. At least, not as I see it now. This is the purely sci-fi version.
In the realistic version, a cybernetic eye and a logic co-processor to increase my background process bandwidth. Sure, a brain-computer interface would also be nice, but I somehow suspect I'd get nostalgic for the clackety-clacks and would most likely revert to analog interfacing after a point (for which I'd like that "fingers within fingers" prosthetic from GitS).
Unless, of course, Musk (or any other such) will be handling said cybermods, in which case none, thanks. I'd rather just decay and die as a basic human being than have such people tinker with my bits.
A monkeys tail! Third hand, balancing, grabbing, etc.
A magnum dong to go with my magnum condoms.
Speak any Human language
Similar to this, or perhaps in obtaining it, perfect memory recall and retention
joints that don't wear down over time
A brainchip would be amazing. But realistically no corporation should be in your head.
This would enable real life language translation, internet functions, scanning, a hud of vitals etc.
Not in order but I would like to have Bionic sight Bionic hearing Bionic joints Bionic smell Bionic sleep regulator Bionic metabolism regulator and a bionic muscle regulator
I want to give birth to our techno overlord's robot babies.
throws Shadowrun 2 street samurai catalog on table
This.
arms. hate my current arms and could greatly benefit from sci fi ones
