Universal language module. Not to translate all into English but to understand all of them.
You’re now a protocol droid.
Ok I think - except that I am absolute shit at protocol so now I’m gonna get someone killed.
Just put this fish in your ear.
Math, so so much math…
Ability to complete a household project with only 1 trip to the hardware store.
When I was driving instacart between jobs or what not I had one for just that. Pick up 4 items from Lowes. Called them and she said they just left there and weren’t going back, haha
I want the entirety of mathematics indellably etched into my mental model. I want to see the math behind everything in reality the way Neo saw the matrix code in the walls of the grubby apartment buildings.
I’ll do the same for physics. Together we shall reign.
But also the ability to turn it off at will. Otherwise life will become incredibly tedious.
Probably the ability to not be an unbalanced idiot 24/7. I literally fell up the stairs twice this week. There are few people who are less scatter-brained than me.
Unlimited energy reserves would be nice. If I had half the energy I had when I was 16 I’d be fucking golden
I’d upload a few languages. Instantly being able to speak and read an array of languages and traveling the world would be fun.
This is a good one. I interact with a lot of East and South Asians in my spare time, and I would love to speak all of their languages. Especially since their English is not the best (in my circle, that is).
Big dick energy
I would immediately download more RAM. No hax. Really works.
I would use it as a Total Perspective Vortex and dump the scale of the universe into my mind.
Polyglotism. Being able to speak every language would be practically a superpower.
This is a back up power to me. The best power is the power to control time however you like.
You could learn every language ever created with the ability to control time. As you would also live as long as you wanted.
You also would be able to timelock any object making it unmoving and indestructable.
You can heal anyone from anything by rolling them back to when they werent injured
No end to what you can do with controlling time
You also would be able to timelock any object making it unmoving and indestructable.
Technically, if you stop something in time and space, it would disappear before your very eyes if it was on Earth, as the Earth would keep on going on its orbit around the sun, around the Milky Way Galaxy, etc. and your object would be floating somewhere. Against what reference point would you lock it?
Against what reference point would you lock it?
Depends on what you need it to do (or not do)
This is a neat idea until you’re in a situation where you remember 38 different words for a thing, just not the one in the language you need
I only speak one language fluently and one language extremely poorly.
The number of times I’ve been able to come up with the word I want in my second language and completely blanked on it in my native language baffles my mind.
This is why I learned the shit out of English: If I forget a word, there’s like 6 more words that are close enough to the one I forgot.

If it was just one language and writing system as a choice, I might say Japanese.
There are so many different characters in their writing as symbols instead of phonetic sounds, that bookstores in Japan are divided into sections, in which one has books that use… say 500 characters, then another section with books that use 1200 characters, or 5000, or 10,000, or more!
To read Japanese or Chinese with a mastery of over 10,000 symbols might be my choice. The richness and depth of those writings must be something incredible.My second choice, for shits ‘n’ giggles, might be something like Sumerian or Akkadian, in the original Cuneiform!
The rpg munchkin in me hopes polyglot misleading includes computer languages.
I can’t even imagine how powerful I would be if I could be ignored in every language.
Yea, the best option.
Download more RAM. My working memory is shit (ADHD).
I thought the issue there was the processor not being able to run a single core long enough.
Or maybe it’s just how the operating system works?
Have you tried Linux? I use Arch btw.
If I had to liken ADHD to computer terms, I think I would blame a faulty task scheduler. That’s what issues the threads to the CPU. When Ryzen came out and also when Intel moved to Performance and Efficiency cores there were issues with efficient task scheduling.
You will just be more (less?) Efficient and being efficient.
I might be a little obsessed with efficiency. Possibly due to my issues making me inefficient by nature, I tend to seek efficiency wherever I can, like some mirage in the desert of my mind.
Did I write this comment? I used to think I just did my best to deliberately waste as little time as possible to balance out all the time I waste involuntarily. Now I realize that I just can’t tolerate being idle, so the moment I initiate some automated process that will take more than a few seconds to complete, I start yet another task while waiting. This looks a hell of a lot more efficient on paper than it does in reality, though…
the ability to think calmly and rationally
Either having a complete understanding of modern-day physics or knowing how to play the violin.
Guitar sounds fun
