When is going to be the year of the Linux desktop?

What was life like for ever human that has ever existed? I'd like to see every single day start to finish from their perspective, sorted as randomly as possible.

The worst part of traditional immortality is being stuck as you, I'd like to experience the entire library and range of human experinces. It would eventually know how it started and how it all ended, while seeing every perspective that got us there. They'd be a lot of days toiling in a field, a lot of days in office cubicles toiling in excel, but most importantly I'd see the small victories and tragedies that make up every life. I think that'd be the real beauty.

Was I ever a good impact on someone else's life?

Simple and sweet. Let's you go to the next thing either with your head held high or knowing for sure if you just lived and died.

I'd pick an irrational number, say pi, and ask for every decimal digit of it. Then, I have infinite time to walk around the world in explore mode (i.e. I can't die, and hence don't need to eat etc..., and am effectively an infinite energy source, and can interact with objects) while time is frozen. This effectively makes me a god, but only for one point in time, with the ability to create a discontinuity in the world state at that point. I'd travel around the whole world (even if it involved swimming oceans) and try to make it so that the infinite sum of each action I take while the world is frozen converges on a world that is in a much better state infinitesimally after the moment compared to infinitesimally before.

How is the entity or power that has the ability to grant me such knowledge connected to the existence of the universe?

What was the point?

is p != np

I want stats like the end of a game. How many red lights did I run, did anyone die by my actions, how many hours did I sleep, how many meals did I eat. Things like that.

Just "Why?" Leave this magical answers being confused and questioning humanity, like the rest of us.

By what mechanism did the universe come to be, or if it simply always existed, why does it exist in this particular way with these particular laws?

I would like to know the detailed life history of every human that was ever born...

Start taking I'll wait :)

Why do hotdogs come in packs of ten while hotdog buns come in packs of six?

Assuming other implications (existence of an afterlife and God) with this scenario I would have but one question. Why? Why everything? Honestly I would be mad furious if there was an afterlife. More so if there was a God.

Did she ever love me?

What is the diagnosis and cure for the disease that has ravaged me for the last 13 years?

Thanks.

What is the airspeed velocity of an unladen swallow?

I'd like to see the details of the events from Nefertiti up through the end of the 19th dynasty and the activities of the sea peoples with a special focus on the figure of Muksus, in an interactive format where I could sort of scrub the timeline to fast forward or rewind and instantly move around the Mediterranean to observe the different events in different places in parallel.

I wouldn't mind having the same for the 1st century CE too, but that would be a secondary priority.

Given that God is infinite, and that the universe is also infinite, would you like a toasted tea-cake?

I would want to know if I could have accomplished anything different that I did. Could I have been a super successful NFL quarterback? Could I have been a lawyer? Could I have been president of the United States? Could I have been a rockstar or a movie star? Could I have been a bodybuilder? Could I have been a New York times best-selling novelist? I would like to know all the possibilities of what I might have been. I would like to see them lived out, what it looked like, what steps were taken, what decisions were made. Given the limited raw intelligence I had, the genetic potential of my physical body, what was the most I could have done with it?

Personally I'd want to see a timelapse or milestone glimpses of humanity's future until the end of Earth's existence (if we survive that long)

I'd ask for the same thing, but not a glimpse, I'd ask for an immersive first person view, and not a timelapse, I'd want to see it in realtime.

And just like that, I'd be reborn.

"Can I see the moments when I made other people feel good/better?" or to know what people i helped and how

I wouldn’t ask anything. I’m gonna die and that knowledge would be lost. Just play me out Ricardo

Starting right now, how can I preserve my personal conscious existence until I'm ready to no longer exist?

Is the answer really 42?
