      I feel like, unless they were monthly (or longer), I’d risk turning into a complete psychopath.

        I’d play the stock market, set myself up for life, then live like Bill Murray in Groundhog Day.

      The monkey paw here is that you are loading the world state and that includes you and your memories. You would never remember using this ability. Maybe you already have it!

    No one has said a HUD yet? Being able to instantly recall information about objects in your environment, how to use them, red outline for nearby dangers, etc? Wouldn’t even have to be Terminator T800 level for it to be immensely useful. Google Glass didn’t get there, but maybe Apple Vision Pro can help pave the way.

      Give me a Linux solution not backed by billion dollar corporations looking to consume as much data on you as possible, and I’ll listen lol

        Can you explain to me, a layman, why it should be Linux based and why that is a good thing?

          The alternatives are:

          • Windows based solution: will be super bloated, locked down preventing customizability, and will try to obtain as much data on you as possible to sell to advertisers, I’m sure among other reasons others here will gladly point out.
          • MacOS based solution: Even more locked down than a Windows based solution, hardware may even be more proprietary so good luck swapping out components yourself to fix it, and will try to obtain as much data on you as possible to sell to advertisers.
          • iOS: same reasons as MacOS, with the exception of it not being as locked down.
          • Android based solution: is controlled by Google and therefore will try to obtain as much data on you as possible to sell to advertisers.

          Alternatives to Linux like other Unix based systems, FreeBSD, etc. I don’t know enough about, so whether or not it would be better on this kind of a product I don’t know.

        That would also be awesome. Also just walking normally. I broke my ankle/leg severely in October while walking my puppy and my gait is going to be slightly fucked up forever from it. But I’m a cyborg now, which is dope.
