  • put my brain in a cyborg body the size of a toaster

    • minisub/amphibious design, spaaaaace, or even something like vehicle/building integration (best if my brain can be plugged-in)
    • I expect people will treat me like a robot, but I hope they treat me like a movie robot (Robot Buddy or Androids Are People, Too tropes)
    • no copies (at least not without the best of conditions)
  • just plug a future-equivalent of a Raspberry Pi into me (not too integrated) and let me handle the OS stuff

    • yeah, I'd probably play STK using brain VR btw
    • VR headspace with a skeuomorphic space (I don't know if there's a better term for that, basically the inside-head/behind-eyes cartoon thing using the sensors/inputs)
  • yeah ok I get it, I know it's more likely they'll just put me in a broom closet or in a brain network somewhere

    • Particularly if I'd still be purposeless, such as if there'd never be a reason to not just use AI

Cost and law (and disliking the idea of corporate) will stop me from getting my brain put into a cryo tank as a tester, though. That and tech being viable in this way is questionable, especially cryo now and tech that might take 100+ years to advance without humanity experiencing climate hardship.

Skeuomorphic space is a perfectly logical thing to call it
