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.
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.”
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 Your memories have all been replaced by caramelldansen and your visual cortex has been ransomwared.
That is very Eternal Sunshine of you…
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/
Use the implant to watch Eternal Sunshine again and again without spoilers.
Understood, but there are other memories I’d much rather erase, not necessarily with the intent of reliving them for the first time.
Just give it time. After long enough, each game becomes new again!
This is the only right answer.
What could go wrong? Well just watch Black mirror
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
Who dropped all this monkey paw in the shower?
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)
Huh, and I worry about forgetting the great memories of the games I played. The duality of man
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? 🤔
Just make sure you get the sound and vision subscriptions or your screwed.
Please upgrade to Monthly Premium for just $19.99 a month to disable the agonizing neurological pain.
Or our deluxe plan to turn off constant ads for just 39.99… otherwise we’d like to speak to you about your cars extended warranty.
I too will let a company put hardware running rented software into my brain. They say you can’t take away my pride, but pride is a emotion on sale for 19.99.
I’d be down, anything to relive those first play throughs of SEX with HITLER, SEX with HITLER 2, SEX with HITLER: 2069, and SEX with HITLER: WW2.
I loath your mere existence of being aware of such fine works-of-art while everyone fed me with the info of how his experiment of baking cookies(inaudible screams) went bad in a gas chamber!!!
! Btw, is VR available for these ?
