Tau's Shadowsun XV22 experimental battlesuit. Jet pack capability, stealth, and all the armour you could want with some nice hefty guns built in. Plus I could hide it in my garage without the planet's militaries trying to hunt me down.

I'd "settle" for astartes physiology. functionally immortal, minimal risk from disease and toxins, extremely resilient to physical injury, pinnacle of human athletic performance (and fairly smart to boot).
you could do almost anything you put your mind to.

Yeah, but then you'd also have to outlive all your friends and family multiple times over, essentially being alone in the world. Immortality would actually suck.

it's a question of whether the good (or bad) you could do and all of the experiences you could have in several lifetimes would be worth that cost or not. I imagine the answer will vary from person to person. you could also choose to stop playing the immortality game at any time

Lots of people live without their family, through death or absence. You can always make new friends and death is a part of our lives. Saying that a life without friends and family is a life not worth living is degrading to the people living in those situations. Besides, who didn't say that you couldn't become a progenitor of a family?
Anyway, I'd like a space marine backpack. Humble and essentially unlimited energy. "Donate" it to science and help benefit the whole world.

It's not living without your friends or family, it's the constant cycle of befriending new people and watching them die, over and over and over. It's a pretty common theme in fantasy settings with elves and other long-lived races avoiding relationships with shorter-lived ones. Just bringing up the point, not trying to start anything, sorry to offend.

IIRC, they're not. They just don't have those urges. The junk is still there, and still works.

Let's see, if I get Terminator Armor (also including the TH/SS, for lulz), I am pretty much invincible against most modern day conventional weapons (including the SS). The TH means I can smash ALL THE THINGS and not care because I can tank that shell from the M1A2, and then use my hammer to crush it to bits.

Although an eldar jetbike would be amazingly fun.
The ability to reverse engineer something would require similar tech. A battle barge would be way to advanced for us (esp. when dealing with a gellar field and the warp engines that require psykers) to attempt to reverse engineer, the Tau battle ship while still really advance, would be easier for us to reverse engineer. and its ability for Faster than light travel would be understood better than, you need a psyker to and the emperor's golden throne to travel through the hell known as the Warp FTL.
