I'm good on things tied into the brain. Now things tied near the brain like sub vocalisation or little eye twitches or even somehow passive brain wave scans or something maybe. But actual hardware tied into my brain I'm gonna take a pass on.

What about a bionic eyeball? (serious question)

[–] [email protected] 4 points 10 months ago (1 children)

If I had no other eyeballs probably. I would still hesitate if the hardware wasn't open ( I don't want an eye that they stop updating after 1 year or that gets ads when I switch insurance providers)

Watch out on those terms and conditions. Before long you'll have to pay more to unlock an ad free vision experience that was previously ad free. Or maybe their licensing deal with Pantone or dolby vision will lapse and your "only licensed" capabilities will go away. Or maybe your one eye just veers off and focuses on any nearby advertisement that's part of the manufacturer's partner program and you literally could not take your eye off it? Non-partner brands are blurry and hard to see? I once dreamed of futuristic technological advances outside the gravity well of all consuming capitalism. Those were the days I tell ya!
