An eternal afterlife, no. Imagine being alive and conscious for a googol years, and then a googol googol years after that. It would be absolute torture. One would have had every possible conversation, experienced every possible state of being, and would be doomed to repeat oneself for eternity. I suppose it wouldn't be so bad if amnesia were an option, but even then it would be a sad fate.
I wouldn't mind getting a few extra centuries or eons, however. In fact, I'm sort of hoping that "mind uploading" becomes a reality within my lifetime, however unlikely that may be. The only condition is that my existence has to end eventually.
