    I think this is an amusing thing, but I do not understand why as a person who does not tweeter. Maybe some explanation would help for the non tweeterminded.

    Sure, I mean I'd buy it if I saw the Australian senator coming down hard on and deporting Muslim clerics chanting death to the west while they preach, but I don't think that's happening

    I’ll try and find it later but I think there was a case that made it all the way up to SCOTUS a couple years back over ISIS using Twitter to recruit and what if any culpability the platform had.

    I wouldn't mind a robot maid.

    And if she were a sexy robot, dressed in a slooty maid costume, I might not mind that, either.

    I have mixed feelings on this. On one hand I think the world has come to realize Elon is not concerned with quality or getting things working properly so he should in no way be involved in these sorts of experiments.

    On the other side he is going to kill a bunch of his cult members in a very painful demonstration of why you do not let the rich idiot guy play mad scientist with your brain. I am alkl for idiocy being painful and this would seem to be a case of that.

    So they pushed really tiny electrode threads thinner than a human hair into the brain, and they did not attach them to anything, and they thought they would just stay in there where they put them?

    Why do I imagine the neuralink office being like the doctor office in idiocracy? Put one of these in your mouth, one in your butt, and one in your brain.
