@pmarca Not a great look is it

[Riley Coyote @RileyRalmuto]

so according to Nolan - patient 0 of @neuralink - it is so accurate that he now has an *unfair advantage over people with functioning limbs*

he said “I basically have an aimbot in my head”

he also says that one of the most profound things he’s experienced is that the latency is so good that it actually goes the other direction. like preemptive. it detects intent before conscious action or conscious thought to perform action.

he thinks that, in the future, there will be leagues and dedicated ranks for neuralink-enabled humans because the advantage is just genuinely unfair.

couple questions:

1) what?
2) could you repeat that plz? I think I heard wrong, you said ‘aimbot in your head’?

@RileyRalmuto @neuralink This ties up with a @newscientist article I read way back about how brain scans can detect your intention to do something before you consciously do it.

Subjects were asked to raise their finger whenever they felt like it, but there was always some spike in the data right before.

@rohanpaul_ai November, that’s old news. What’s the next level today?

Seeing more Weibo breakaways on X. Auto-translate is epic.

Apocalyptic bird nest.

Couldn’t he spend his time better, like blocking ambulances or spraying orange paint around?

@MrsBr0wn_82 Charged for having weapons, but not for obstructing a dying man from getting help.

@GBPolitcs That does seem unfair if true, verging on rigged.

[Livingston @RobLEvans]

@LeoKearse @Glinner Just the hypocrisy is triggering enough

@TateTheTalisman @reformparty_uk Scotsmen can carry the dirk (a small knife) so long as they are in traditional garb.

@SarahCoombesWB Handguns were banned for everyone after the horrendous activities of one person, Thomas Hamilton.

@Guramitsingh01 @TRobinsonNewEra Does that mean that even if the Kirpan is used in self defense, it becomes an illegal knife at that moment?

Cousin-in-law visiting from China. @ukhomeoffice rejected their visa: “we’re not convinced you’ll leave”. Please, their life quality in China is way better than they’d get here.

The Home Office, arrogantly, lets the bad ones in and keeps the good ones out…
