    I don't have a problem with cybernetic augmentation, I mostly would have a problem with the state of technology companies. I likely wouldn't choose to get any because I would not be able to trust them. However, if I could get any sorta (relatively) basic augmentation, it would be built in headphones. Like to just be able to "hear" music and podcasts and audiobooks. My focus wouldn't even be upgraded hearing or anything.

    So do y'all have any similar quality of life augmentations you would want?

    I wanna see the hype about regular colour. I’ve got red green blue yellow colourblindness. I wanna see how things are meant to be coloured.

      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.

        New skin. It doesn’t need to be fancy, just less scars and a better fit.

        A skin that isn't trying to kill itself would be pretty high on my list. Along with parts that are falling apart from old age. But I'm not sure those would be augmentations so much as bug fixes.

          A way to monitor and regulate body chemistry or neural action would be nice. Change and directly see my stress and sleepiness levels, regulate pain at will if necessary etc. I think there would be tons of uses for things like that.

              A math coprocessor would be nice. Ability to instantly know the answer to equations I see, and ability to do large calculations in my head.

              Ability to any calculations in my head at all would be nice, now that I think about it.

                  Where would that be a significant upgrade over entering the numbers on a calculator?

                    Is your tolerance upgraded as well or is this a mutually assured destruction situation

                          No time-delay for inputting the numbers, ability to process any calculation (which calculators can't), and no need to carry an actual calculator around.

                                        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.
