If we can't live forever, overclocking our brain-computer interfaces to cram more virtual time into our remaining years is the next best thing.

Maybe eventually there'll be FOSS privacy respecting degree packages that you can incorporate in maybe a week. Do 52 of them and prove something new at their insections. Repeat.

    Can it at least be the magic bullet infomercial? The one where all the junkies wake up feeling like shit, and just want snacks, so they don't even question why a random guy is in their kitchen demoing the magic bullet. They just want nachos, and smoothies. Until Carol comes down and wants to make more drinks.

    Like.....it's 8am, and she's bouncing down the stairs like "MARGARITAS PLEASE!!!!"

    Carol. You have a problem.

    The neat thing is, you could put a standardised neuro-usable (no bits & bytes) interface in there and the brain would figure by itself out, how to use it. No complicated "this guys memory works like this and goes there and there" like in SAO' NerveGear, the brain does that.

    You should look into how many people have coma or other experiences of a whole lifetime, then wake up and get a whole second lifetime.
