Nah. It'd be nice to have some sort of purpose, rather than aimlessly wandering.
But man, living 500 years sounds really lame. I guess if you're part of a hivemind that would cease to matter.

I don't know. I'm pretty sure I wouldn't go to war for my country.

For my species though, not so sure.

And they include free nanobots (which is like the ultimate healthcare) + enter the matrix + multiphasic shields + robot arms + unlimited electricity. It's a good package, and all you have to do is some space gardening / work on the cube, seems like a sweet gig.

It's not even logical to try.  Resistance is futile!

you don't need to, you just engage drunk mode on your isolinear circuits, and instant.

that's not why I like drinks though. that defeats the entire purpose.
and as a Borg you probably wouldn't see any point in deviant behavior.
I wonder what the Borg suicide rate is? Like if they assimilated a really super depressed person who affected the hivemind with their depression, and it culminates in the whole Cube offing themselves after months of moping around getting nothing done.

free idea, J.J.

Mmm... one would suspect they have programs which isolates and suppresses neuroadaptive rejection, similar to anti-rejection medication for organ transplants.

It would certainly seem a prerequisite for their system of world assimilation.

**** no for a multitude of reasons.
1. I'm pretty religious, so I only have one true master
2. I actually like having all my limbs not registered to Elon Musk
3. I'd rather not be one "Dropped" USB away from an entire dead space cube
4. I'd rather not have my keyboard be attached to me, I feel it looks better on my desk
5. I've already worked retail once in my life, I'd rather not go back to being a drone k thanx
Tho tbf their furry conventions must look absolutely cracked, with how much effort people put into just making their fake robot fursonas and how good they look they'd be hecking next level.
One, Two, Three, Four, Five, Six, Seven, Eight, Nine, Ten, Eleven, Twelve, Thirteen, Fourteen, Fifteen, Sixteen, Seventeen, Eighteen, Nineteen, Twenty... Yeah that seems about right.
