You could always use monkey-patching

Drugs, I'm talking about drugs. 🫠

  • bug fix: you can now go to a room without forgetting the reason you went there

No you don't. You want to learn how to properly run your hardware.

  • anxiety serves a purpose, forces your fight or flight response, develops survival instinct

  • memory is not meant to be heidetic as not everything is vital information; you want to remember what you had for lunch when you were 3 years old, on a tuesday, mid january?

  • failures are more important than successes; failure teaches you what does not work.

Run your hardware better. Have some therapy, try to sleep more/better and go for a daily walk.

Cursed Monkey Paw:

Wish Granted. You get regular firmware updates, just like HP printers do.

No thanks, seen too many bad updates to want to let myself get bricked by a bad update.

Humans have them. But they are like Linux drivers and upgrades. You have to look for them as invest a lot of. Tike to actually improve.

I'd give my left nut for the allergy update.

[-] SendMePhotos@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Particular human has too many nuts. Removed left nut and replaced with nut allergy.

Just open source the code. Let me hack on it.

[-] 0x0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 9 points 1 year ago

I'm afraid we lost the source code long ago, we've just been stochastically binary patching for a few billion years. At least there's a disassembler: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/projects/genome/guide/human/

-new bug: Due to forgetting of past failure, there is now reoccurring failures.

[-] Shelbyeileen@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago

Isn't this technically a vaccine? I suppose that's more like Avast for your body

[-] Atemu@lemmy.ml 10 points 1 year ago

It's more of a malware definitions update for the antivirus your body already ships with.

[-] darcy@sh.itjust.works 7 points 1 year ago

"already ships with" 💀

[-] Alperto@lemmy.ml 9 points 1 year ago

Reading books, studying, learning new things, is our way to update our firmware to make new things, or give us new tools to fight anxiety or depression.

Also, to improve your math skills, you have to do maths often, and the brain will get better at it.

The brain is like a muscle that you can train to become stronger at things that hurt you or better at things that you need.

This is the meditation update that you're looking for

[-] med@sh.itjust.works 8 points 1 year ago

Sure, but you always download the latest bugs.

-known issue: audio skips every 10s

[-] Aielman15@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

Fixed a bug where the human would sometimes procrastinate too much, saying "It's a problem of my future self".

[-] Bad_Rats@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

Eh, I'll put it on the back log

[-] Zozano@aussie.zone 6 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Can I get a perceived attractiveness buff plz

Also, combined sex and waste organs; awful idea.

Human babies need a buff, they're functionally useless for far too long. Other mammals can stand immediately.

Way too many incompatible preference traits. Cheese being delicious but also requiring to enslave another being for manufacturing, with a 50/50 chance it makes your asshole explode. Way too chaotic.

You can. I go on a 2 week Mahasi vipassana silent meditation retreat each year and each time the release notes make it worth the time and effort. Also like running defrag on a disk that has been defragged regurlarly, it runs smoother each time, making the whole experience much more pleasurable.

Release notes last retreat:

  • Fixed approval seeking issue due to lack of approval by clueless dad during teenage years
  • Reduced day dreaming by 10% by recognizing mechanisms that lead to day dreaming
  • Optimized routines for dealing with tough situations
  • Increased mindfulness by eliminating several mechanisms that lead to mindlesness
  • Discovered access to high concentration states that likely will lead to more discoveries
  • Fixed loneliness issue due to missed update
  • Fixed part of a (self and others) judgement issue. More work on this issue needed.

The above is a pretty accurate representation of the results I got.

No, you actually say you want to solve your problems without any work from your part, sorry no can do.

Even for a firmware update somebody has to code and work in the background, only the update process itself it's simpler (if you don't consider the work involved in creating the update mechanism and infrastructure itself).

A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    • 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    • 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    • 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct
