I just want an affordable 10" color e-ink ebook reader, that has natural colors, so it is good enough to read modern comics on.

Edit: I forgot to mention "affordable"

A toilet that can plunge and snake itself.

• Open source motherboards
• Open source modems for computers and phones
• Open source cars
• GrapheneOS phone with enough RAM to run a decent offline LLM
• Offline AI privacy/network manager designed to white noise the stalkerware standards of the shitternet with a one click setup
• Real AI hardware designed for tensor math using standard DIMM system memory with many slots and busses in parallel instead of bleeding edge monolithic GPU stuff targeting a broad market. The bottle neck in the CPU structure is the L2 to L1 cache bus width and transfer rate with massive tensor tables that all need to run at one time. System memory is great for its size but its size is only possible because of the memory controller that swaps out a relatively small chunk that is actually visible to the CPU. This is opposed to a GPU where there is no memory controller and the memory size is directly tied to the compute hardware. This is the key difference we need to replicate. We need is a bunch of small system memory sticks where the chunk normally visible to the CPU is all that is used and a bunch of these sticks on their own busses running to the compute hardware. Then older, super cheap system memory could be paired with ultra cheap trailing edge compute hardware to make cheaper AI that could run larger models, (at the cost of more power consumption). Currently larger than 24GBV GPUs are pretty much unobtainium, like an A6000 at 48GBV will set you back at least $4k. I want to run a 70B or greater. That would need ~140GBV to run super fast on dedicated optimised hardware. There is already an open source offline 180B model, and that would need ~360GBV for near instantaneous response. While super speeds with these large models is not needed for basic LLM prompting, it makes a big difference with agents where the model needs to do a bunch of stuff seamlessly while still appearing to work in realtime conversationally.

Privacy-respecting thought-controlled AR+VR smart contact lenses that correct my eyesight, block out UV, can somehow project sound into my brain, overlay people's names and basic info when I see them and don't remember (or make me remember thanks to the brain interface), and let me browse the internet and work on stuff without using my hands because RSI :(

• Microwave freezer
• Feature phone with all of : keypad, high-resolution screen and camera, headphone jack, dual sim, WLAN, reasonable RAM, and expandable ~memory~ storage. I can find phones with some of these, but not all.

Edit: I knew what I meant /s

Gun from Portal.

A bare keyboard attached to a screen, that I could plug my phone (possibly running Phosh) and use it as a hardware for a laptop experience

Those exist!

They're called "lapdocks".

A television screen you can turn on and off without the remote. A mobile phone that has buttons on the back. A magic stick that can send my husband to the cornfield when he won't leave me alone.

A laptop with fully libre firmware that actually has good specs.

5 inch android phone :(

Are bionic spines a thing already? Cause I'd really love it if those could be easily available for all of us with chronic back pain. Hell, even not just chronic - any bs back pain.

Edit: I see now that it has been researched, at least. Here's an article about building a bionic spine but why don't I have something like this at the pharmacy?

Edit 2: I accidentally a word

1. A FairPhone that can run GrapheneOS.

2. Dual screen phone (separate screens not foldable) with that can run GrapheneOS

3. Tablet with keyboard case that runs GrapheneOS and has support for Linux apps, so I can replace my PC with something more private and secure

4. Don't know if this is possible but a keyboard where each key can show different icons depending on if the shift or control key is pressed to make keyboard shortcuts easier to learn, but still possible to type without looking

Futurama styled arm brace smart phones. My phone is always with me and smart watches are kinda really lame. An arm brace with a touch screen I can pull off and use would be awesome.

A grapple gun that can pull you up a building like batman. I was bummed when I found out those don't really exist

Lever that sticks out under the toekick on a vanity sink base cabinet, that opens the cabinet doors.

Basically so you can put a trash can under the sink and access it hands-free.

In other words, a cabinet that opens and closes with the same mechanism as a step-to-open trash can, but without the trash can taking up space in your small bathroom.

You’ve got some floss to toss, no need to touch your cabinet door handle just step down on the lever, toss the floss in the wastebasket, release foot and the door closes again.

A high-end smartphone with 16:9 4K screen running a non-Google Linux variant.

I was gonna come in here like 'Phone with a physical keyboard' but then I realized I had greatly misread the room...

How about ANY kind of laptop with a keyboard designed for human hands instead of type-writer compatibility (i.e. ortholinear).

A modern Firefox OS phone with a really great camera.

Automatic guinea pig cage cleaner

A modern Nokia N900

homeostasis-r-us.

nano machines + hmi that balances all hormones/ chemicals in my body.

Multiplayer lucid dreams device

Real-life adblock.

A Nokia N900 with modern specs and capacitive touchscreen.

3D printer that can print fully-populated functional electronic devices. Design or download a schematic for, say a new camera or phone, make whatever modifications I want, and just hit print!

Basically a replicator for electronic devices...

A Motorola Droid 4 (SLIDE IN KEYBOARD FUCK YES) with a 5" screen and more recent components. Hell, use mid-high end from 2018, like 3GB RAM and a decent processor would be more than enough for me. Don't forget the earphone jack and easily removable back.

In the realm of pure fantasy, a stealth boy from Fallout, or the similar Stealth thingy from Metal Gear Solid

A true virtual reality. Not goggles, but the kind that hooks up into your brain and consciousness. One that's indistinguishable from real life. The kind where you can basically just live your entire life in some kind of a virtual multiplayer where quite literally anything is possible. You could be hooked up to an IV that feeds you optimal diet etc. go off the deep end if you want.

I know how it might seem crazy to see something like that as a desirable thing, but I really think it would solve many of the issues in the world. I don't think you're "wasting your life" if you're being happy in a virtual world, and I don't see a reason why you couldn't be happy there. You could have your own private world(s) and others would have theirs. There would be public worlds also with a ton of real people aswell as AI, and people could visit your worlds aswell if you let them. Just think about the possbilities. Why ruin the planet when you can have abundance in the virtualverse.

A RISC-V laptop that's not an engineering sample. Something like a dell 9370 sort of thing.
