    I choose 4 and 7.

    • 1: This is genuinely a blurse; you really don’t want to understand everything everyone ever says.
    • 2: This is genuinely a curse; You will remember every little thing that happens to you and it will haunt you forevermore.
    • 3: This is mostly useless and will lead to you being exploited.
    • 4: This is very good.
    • 5: This is worthless; unless this acts like an infinite money glitch.
    • 6: This is highly dangerous. You’d better not fall into a coma; nobody would be able to help you.
    • 7: This is good; and it would be mostly useful; even if you were required to keep it a secret from everyone.
    • 8: This is absolutely the most useless one yet. Eh, at least it’s probably harmless.

      How is 3 useless? If you want to do a profession or skillful activity you just need to warm up a bit and you’ll excel. You can write amazing stories, be a 5 star chef, learn any language and make option 1 redundant, you can do anything a single person can accomplish.

      I’d say 3&4 are the prime combo. Succeed at whatever you want to do and be in perfect health the whole time

      Wouldn’t perfect memory recall just let you recall memories, not necessarily be forced to recall them? Whether or not you chose to do it or it haunts you seems more like a matter of mental health…

        You can’t always control memory recall; even in perfect health.

        Similarly you can’t always control events around you, nor can you control things that you may do and later come to regret. All of these small things will add up cumulatively over time. Perfect recall is a shortcut to mental health problems.

      1. When you die, you remain unconscious indefinitely. The outside universe remains paused as your protons decay. Unfathomable amounts of time pass only for your body. Eventually, a Boltzmann brain that matches you arises. Time unpauses and the energy this microcosm contained is released into your neighborhood.

      6 very much depends on interpretation. I think yours is overly negative - the net benefits are considerable! So much so that I picked 4&6 even before I noticed that 4 averts 6’s issue.
