Nanomachines that interface with my eyeball or nerd glasses that show me every single detail about my body, so I can micromanage myself like some kind of video game. "BLOOD SUGAR 1% LOWER THAN AVERAGE? TIME FOR DONUTS!"

lonesomedwarf posted:scientific proof of what really happens to your consciousness after you die as far as we know right now everything that makes you who you are starts to fizzle away about five minutes after death. even the white light at the end of the tunnel and out of body experiences have been constructed via electric impulses also glhf during proton decay in 8.2×10^33 years Memory loss and neurological disorders like depression and bi-polar disorder are a pretty good example of your consciousness not being much else than some chemical and electrical reactions. take a few pills and you go from a sadsack to happy and cheerful. look forward to nothing but eternal blackness and unknowingness!

You would have to pair this with a huge human die off first for it to work well. dontcareaboutname posted:mind prison, make some live there sentence out in 5 mins and have it feel like 100 so we don't waste tax dolars on locking people up.

It is the 41st Millennium. For more than a hundred centuries The Emperor has sat immobile on the Golden Throne of Earth. He is the Master of Mankind by the will of the gods, and master of a million worlds by the might of his inexhaustible armies. He is a rotting carcass writhing invisibly with power from the Dark Age of Technology. He is the Carrion Lord of the Imperium for whom a thousand souls are sacrificed every day, so that he may never truly die. Yet even in his deathless state, the Emperor continues his eternal vigilance. Mighty battlefleets cross the daemon-infested miasma of the Warp, the only route between distant stars, their way lit by the Astronomican, the psychic manifestation of the Emperor's will. Vast armies give battle in his name on uncounted worlds. Greatest amongst his soldiers are the Adeptus Astartes, the Space Marines, bio-engineered super-warriors. Their comrades in arms are legion: the Imperial Guard and countless planetary defence forces, the ever vigilant Inquisition and the tech-priests of the Adeptus Mechanicus to name only a few. But for all their multitudes, they are barely enough to hold off the ever-present threat from aliens, heretics, mutants - and worse. To be a man in such times is to be one amongst untold billions. It is to live in the cruelest and most bloody regime imaginable. These are the tales of those times. Forget the power of technology and science, for so much has been forgotten, never to be re-learned. Forget the promise of progress and understanding, for in the grim dark future there is only war. There is no peace amongst the stars, only an eternity of carnage and slaughter, and the laughter of thirsting gods.Â

I would want the singularity to come true.runupon cracker posted:None. A lot of today's tech is yesterday's science fiction, our productivity has skyrocketed as a result, and we're still killing ourselves working ridiculous hours in a capitalist society. Even if I could, say, teleport instantly from my house to work, that would mean everybody else could, too, and we'd be forced to work longer hours to compete. Honestly, I'd rather have the relative peace and quiet of the 20-minute commute from my house in a rural community. What ever, Tracer Tong.
