Today I mostly forget it’s there and occasionally am surprised when I reach for a running microwave, or am near high voltage lines. It’s good for party tricks - I rub my hands together to pretend to make static electricity, then pick up coins. People then try to do it and obviously fail.
I’m impressed, but why?
This was a popular body hacking mod for a while. It gives you a 6th sense where you can feel electrical/magnetic currents.
Its fallen out of favor a bit.
Why not? How often can you buy another sense?

If you have a medical emergency and you need a CT scan, now you have two medical emergencies.
CT scans don’t use magnets.
If I need an mri, they would cut it out. If I’m unconscious they won’t use an mri, it’s too risky (what if I had shrapnel from a war wound).
