Agile Vector posted:your trepanation trepidation is noted but as you see the robot brain stapler is harmless and will put your skin back (and maybe even your skull!) in the mall kiosk faster than you can say the word purple, or cool, or whatever vocabulary you retain Oi, I had a brain hole drilled and retained at least, uh, 60% of my vocabulary? I'm still missing some but they couldn't have been all that important because it's been five years, I'm sure I'd have picked them back up by now. Yeah I was gonna go "I had a brain hole drilled and I retained all my vocabulary and most of my teeth" but then I remembered I did actually lose a significant chunk of my vocabulary. The skin will heal fine, that's not a problem, apart from the hair growth around the scar. The skull bits are gone forever.

But yeah I look at that and go "wait, a modern battery and a charging coil inside your loving head". Drilling a hole in my skull, sure whatever, but a battery of this scale? Also look at it and ask why the charging pad is a button replacing some of the skull instead of just a pad between the skull and the skin. And why the battery isn't in your neck instead of inside your skull. The more you know about these the more the grows.

eee, im glad you retained enough to cover the time spent replacing the stragglers. i know you went into detail before, but its always impressive what can be done now theres just so many questions here. youre right with the battery location; why not behind the ear like the early plan, similar to how a cochlear implant is attached? cost isnt an object, make a wonky little charge dock or something. anything that doesnt require trying to wear an apple watch dock in bed for 8 hours

I am aware I'm a lot more educated on the subject than Musk. You tend to have a bunch of stress when getting a skull hole drilled - well, if you retain the capacity anyway - and my reaction was to read up real bad. Also among the immediate thoughts I had was "you could have these be charged by smart glasses or headphones you're wearing why go through the bullshit of a charging cable on the top of your head?". I wear gear to sleep and boy howdy is my reaction to anything attaching on top of my head just a "gently caress no". The wire management alone. Any wire flexible enough to stay attached would fray basically immediately. And how are you keeping it in place? It's a fascinating mixture of "impossible bullshit" and "lovely ideas that people solving these problems have long since abandoned", like a rocket controlled by artificial intelligence orbiting the moon and dragging a piano wire behind it turn the moon into convenient slices for burgers. I mean, yes, I know Musk doesn't just google up what the state of the art looks like, otherwise he'd be able to make cars that can handle rain.

all of musks "ideas" are taken straight out of the 1970s and 1980s scifi novel he read while growing up as a larval nerdling. domed cities on mars, self driving cars, asteroid mining - its all straight up heinlein/clarke/niven poo poo, same as i read as a teenager this is just his handwaving effort at making neuromancer real

it's a very invasive eeg, with all of the value of a very invasive eeg it doesn't do anything else, nor will it at any time in the foreseeable future. the only viable product was the surgery robot, the rest was musk's usual flimflam, and i wouldn't exactly trust a musk run company to build a reliable robot either infernal machines fucked around with this message at 14:03 on Aug 29, 2020 |

I know I've seen a Brain-computrer interface somewhere that already did typing. I know this is just more Tesla hype, but everthing shown or described in that demo has been done before.

I didn't watch the presentation but I'm having trouble finding if he cited any scientific studies at all? It sounds like he just got a Nazi doctor to drill a hole in a pig's head and stick a Fitbit inside with no particular hypothesis or testing protocol.

I literally pitched this idea for a 7th grade English presentation in which we were supposed to make up some product for people to invest in. I distinctly remember thinking "who cares how it would really work". apparently I could have been the next elon musk. thank god I avoided that fate

update on my stupid model 3 poo poo that i know you guys dont give a gently caress about on friday, i popped the screen back in, it didn't power on for 30 seconds, and when it did the screen wasn't responding to touches. a two-button wheel reboot thing got it working again, whew. i slapped on a lovely $25 silicone cover around the edges cause i'll probably do stupid poo poo to it again. have you guys noticed the error about the 12V battery? yeah, apparently it died. also, a/c doesn't work when it has a bad 12V battery, yay. i immediately drove down to the marietta service center, and they popped a new battery in minutes, and it was free of charge. so everything's back to normal after getting rear ended and my clumsy screen bashing. who knows when i'll pop back in here so you guys can laugh at me
