Although, it may be a “premium” feature, so it’s (still) a bad idea.
That’s gonna be my version of old people saying “I don’t do computers” now. There’s no goddamn way I’m putting a chip in my brain.
It’s wild that 15 years ago I’d sign up in a heartbeat, the entire world order would have to change dramatically for me to go for it today
I would only if it wass FOSS and self hosted. NO FUCKING WAY IM INSTALLING A MICROAOFT CHIP IN MY HEAD.
What about a Muskachip?
You don’t want your cherished memories (and darkest secrets) being automatically uploaded to facebook? What’s wrong with you?
Wish granted, the chip erases your memories of games you’ve played every single time you sleep, along with all your other memories.
“Don’t worry about the sun, it’s meant to be there.”
You dont need a chip for that
Wish granted. It’s a neuralink and has like 30 back doors. Your memories have all been replaced by caramelldansen and your visual cortex has been ransomwared.
A futuristic brain implant sounds cool until you think about all the downsides
A futuristic brain implant won’t allow you to think of the downsides, so don’t worry about that.
That is very Eternal Sunshine of you…
Use the implant to watch Eternal Sunshine again and again without spoilers.
That movie would have been a lot less interesting, I feel.
Haha, probably. Unless you are this guy: https://www.forbes.com/sites/insertcoin/2015/12/27/man-sues-bethesda-because-fallout-4-is-too-addictive/
Understood, but there are other memories I’d much rather erase, not necessarily with the intent of reliving them for the first time.
What could go wrong? Well just watch Black mirror
Just give it time. After long enough, each game becomes new again!
This is the only right answer.
If such a technology existed, the government and shady companies would do all sorts of awful things with it.
If this ever happens, your brain will constantly be raped by Trump, Musk, Zuck, Altman, and all the North Korean hackers. Enjoy.
But what if I install Linux on the chip? 🤔
I just want to be in a post capitalism society with incredible AI that I could ask to continue a game I’d played before with a twist.
Give me pokemon red in 3d, but make more puzzles and more pokemon and the npcs more interactive. That kinda thing
Huh, and I worry about forgetting the great memories of the games I played. The duality of man
gamer: “worst game ever”
gamer: “i just wanna claw my eyes out”
gamer: “man, that game was so bad, i wish i could forget it.”
announcer: Well you can now! For only $99.99* you can forget those games you’d really rather not remember
gamers (in unison, on triple-split screen): worth it!!!
*(per game, plus $15 a month per game–forever)
Who dropped all this monkey paw in the shower?
Thank you everyone for buying our chip. We have now changed everyone to ad tier subscription.
Thank you for understanding.
