MODERATORS
I'm amused how Neuralink was a highly regarded breakthrough celebrated by the likes of Reddit/Lemmy folks, but once Musk was revealed as an idiot, Neuralink is suddenly "lobotomizing".
I mean, after those monkeys died a little skepticism is warranted
I haven't seen anyone excited about neuralink, ever. Maybe it helps that I don't read Twitter though.
Musk burned through 44 billion dollars to acquire Twitter and then he wrecked it. This is not a guy who has a plan. He only cares about that dopamine hit that getting his name in the news gets him. Now he's got his own social media platform that only exists to blow him.
There's a reason why redditors are known for being the biggest circlejerkers on the internet.
