And, how could one live one's life and be happy knowing the day, time & place of one's own death?

I could be happy knowing the day, time and place is not where and when I plan to undertake extremely reckless activity?

Would you rather see the moment of your birth, or the moment of your death?

Birth. I’m hoping the moment (and manner) of my death will be a surprise.

Would you rather lose your sight or your hearing?

Boru

Hearing.  I don’t listen as a matter of principle so the ability is redundant.

Okay, would this entail some sort of "wetware update" and how does it figure into the free will/predestination debate?

I’d bang him like a snare drum.

Never eat your favourite food again, or never engage in your favourite pastime again?

Not a foodie so that's an easy one for me.  I eat to live not live to eat.

Same here. I could face a life without cod and chips easier than a life without blacksmithing.
