Imagine when they put ads directly into your brain.

    The funny thing about this ad is that it's already lodged deep in my brain and anytime someone says they have a headache I think about it

    All I knew until today was you apply headon directly to your forehead. Why would you do so? If I had to guess, I would've said for headaches, but that's completely an assumption

    Or Musk decides that you don't need some part of your brain. Or worse, rents it out as server space.

    Don't worry, the dolphins will save us if it gets that far.

    This is the bigger concern. For that matter imagine if a government mandated mind control.

    I’m loving the typo.

    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    Only 15 percent of the electrode-bearing threads implanted in the brain of Neuralink's first human brain-chip patient continue to work properly, according to a report from The Wall Street Journal.

    The adjustments were effective enough to regain and then exceed performance on at least one metric—the bits-per-second (BPS) rate used to measure how quickly and accurately a patient with an implant can control a computer cursor.

    He initially asked if Neuralink would perform another surgery to fix or replace the implant, but the company declined, telling him it wanted to wait for more information.

    The Journal's report adds more detail about the thread retraction as Neuralink gears up to surgically implant its chip into a second trial participant.

    According to the report, the company hopes to perform the second surgery sometime in June and has gained a green light to do so from the Food and Drug Administration, which oversees clinical trials.

    Neuralink, owned by controversial billionaire Elon Musk, believes it can prevent thread movement in the next patient by simply implanting the fine wires deeper into brain tissue.

    Man I deleted my account because I didn’t want Musk involved in my newsfeed. I can’t imagine giving that fool direct access to my brain.

    I wonder what it was like for all of the fools that ever bought an Oculus headset and might've been force fed anything Mark projected on that thing.

    Well tbh Quests dont really bug you much about anything FB related. After you setup the account the only thing you deal with is the initial menu starts opened to the app store with suggestions based on what you already bought.

    But that initial menu let's you also set quick access buttons for your favorite apps.

    So it's only a single click to go from "put on headsst" to "open thing I want" usually.

    It's not any different from steam starting you out in the store tbh, I can accept that level of advertising as it's pretty transparent and half the time it has something of interest for me anyways.

    It's about as big of a deal as a gift shop at a museum.
