much thanks to @gary_host_laptop for the logo design :)
FDA should regulate me being able to run Linux on it so I can tile on dwm with my MIND
He just took control of "his" starlinks to shut off Ukraine, anyone who doesn't think he'll do something similar with these is oblivious.
Musk can go first. Maybe it'll help him save Twitter. Or he goes into the nuthouse. Either way, it would be a win.
Cool. However, I trust Musk and his projects about as far as I can throw a Buick.
Well... the brain chip experience for Deus Ex wasn't exactly fantastic. Seems reasonably on point.
Despite Elon being insane, the idea of brain-computer interfaces could be really great. I'm thinking of people with disabilities or debilitating injuries. This could enable prosthetics with full dexterity that you can control. It could be life changing for some people.
I don't know if that is the first thing Elon is aiming for, but any breakthroughs in the technology that could lead to it becoming a legitimate option to improve people's lives, I think would be a good thing.
Based on how many monkeys Elon has killed, I'm not sure he'll have too many volunteers.
I’ll never put a chip in my brain unless it’s a life or death thing. But this is totally going to be what our cyberpunk future will be.
I won't get a brain chip unless there's laws passed banning using them for advertising or for data collection, but knowing our current government those two things will end up being mandatory
And then the next government just reverses that law. Doesn't sound fun.
I would be down for it if it was a local only connection, no internet, it would also have to be fully owned, no license. I wouldn't even want the cons protocol to resemble tcp/ip
Orwell tried to warn us. Apparently that wasn't enough. The implications of the neurolink, a chip in our brains, seems like a bad idea. The meme is on point. Constant ads, which are out of ones control, might drive people to madness. Imagine having no space to think?
Behold the Rise of the Cybermen! Elon Musk is the John Lumic of our world. Humanity will be upgraded! https://piped.video/watch?v=TQs3gVobcfg
