Still thinking about long term application of this technology. You get real time medical scans. At a fraction of the cost of MRI

Medicine has changed forever

@DavidSHolz said 12 of these operating full time will be able to outscan every single MRI machine on earth combined

He even said long term you’d be able to vaporise cancer cells. And other items. Even food in your gut potentially

You’ll be able to see pregnancies in real time. Many complications from childbirth are going to be eliminated.

Tumours. Early detection. Seeing real time
Blood flow. Even seeing the constituents of your own blood. Seeing injuries. Bleeds.

Potentially could even be used to cure blindness and a new form of laser eye surgery. Non invasive surgery

Even using ultrasound frequencies to heal up human tissue faster.

Maybe even detect matter shifts in brains.

Even seeing an accurate way to see body fat percentage can change a lot.

Biology as a field is about to swing open. So many open spaces to explore.

You could even get to a point where this becomes a wearable. And you have clothing that ultra sound scans you at all times. Or even heals you constantly.

There’s even research that ultrasound therapy can cure depression. Can see this as a headset or even a tool that helps you dream better.

Aside from the medical. There’s the ar vr. Creating haptic feedback. Or even 3d holograms irl.

This is so close to a sci fi technology. And it’s only the start. That’s what excites me the most.

What a pleasant surprise

A British woman is 300x more likely to be raped by a Muslim than an American is to be shot in school

I guarantee if the Brits kept their guns private citizens would have handled what their police refused to

@cowgirl_bebop We even have government stockpiles of cheese reaching a total of 1.4 billion pounds in underground vaults.

The European mind cannot comprehend American abundance

Concrete/asphalt heat causes storms to divert around city centers all the time

Outdoor laborers predicted this

[Jack Posobiec @JackPosobiec]

The storm the left was praying for suddenly parted just as it passed over and missed Washington DC completely

How is this possible

[King Crook @theoperator47]

PROUD TO BE AN AMERICAN

[King Crook @theoperator47]

@JayyClears For best barn burner of all time go watch Robbie Lawler Versus Rory Macdonald 2 the second you get a moment

Also for an all time outclassing performance you need to watch Tj Dillashaw versus Renan Barao 1

[King Crook @theoperator47]

Gane wins in emphatic fashion while continue his cheating streak

Probably still would’ve won regardless of them due to how things were going there but the back of the head strikes reallllly expedited the finish. Not good, dudes whole career has cheating related asterisks

Right on the White House lawn. 🇺🇸🦅

If you’re wondering why men backed Trump in far greater numbers than McCain or Romney, this is why.

Michael Chandler looks like he might kill himself genuinely

[King Crook @theoperator47]

Even the adds on UFC 250 are making me feel patriotic. No more dooming we are so fucking back it’s electric

[blue @bluewmist]

i regret to inform you that personal growth rarely comes from acquiring new knowledge and almost always from:
•getting humiliated

•showing up terrified and doing it anyway

•admitting you might be the problem

[T @walterwhitepill]

Biggest ipo of all time, stocks soaring, fuel dropping, war over, deportation all time highs, legal immigration gutted, foreigners fleeing the country, fights on the whitehouse lawn. Imagine insisting on negativity right now (I can’t) it is quite literally white boy summer.

@lshredder42 @WestinianMMA USADA ended its partnership with the UFC December 31st of 2023. They had the best testing and it still wasn’t bulletproof. CSAD is in charge now, and they are even less stringent than USADA, these guys wouldn’t have to hide in Dagestan to beat the drug tests tbh

[IMPERATOR @IMPERATORAUS]

In his Summa Theologiae, St Thomas Aquinas laid out one of the most charitable yet practical arguments concerning immigration that effectively shaped the West for almost 1,000 years.

1. Immigration must always be proportionate so that foreigners can properly assimilate into the culture and mode of worship of the state.

2. Citizenship – and associated rights – should only ever be granted after the third generation to preserve the culture, mode of worship, and constitution of the state.

3. The common good of the citizens must remain the highest priority of the state, meaning, the state's obligation to provide aid to its neighbours can never be at the expense of the citizens.

However, Aquinas ends with the sobering reminder that some peoples and states are incompatible with one another, and these must be held as "foes in perpetuity".

You will never outperform your self-image, this is one of the most important things ever said about human behavior and almost nobody understands what it really means, your self-image is the picture you carry inside your head of who you are, what you're capable of, what you deserve, and what's possible for you, and your entire life is just your nervous system executing the orders of that picture, you don't behave according to what you want, you don't behave according to what you say, you don't behave according to your goals, you behave according to who you secretly believe you are, and the gap between where you are and where you want to be is almost always the exact gap between your real self-image and the one you keep trying to talk yourself into.

The plastic surgeon Maxwell Maltz figured this out in the 1950s when he noticed that some patients, even after he fixed their face perfectly, still walked out of his office feeling ugly, and others with minor cosmetic changes walked out feeling brand new, the surgery didn't matter, what mattered was whether the internal picture had changed, and he wrote a book called Psycho-Cybernetics in 1960 that became the foundation of basically every self-development book that came after it, his point was simple, the brain operates like a guided missile that locks onto whatever self-image you've installed, and it will steer you, sabotage you, and bring you home to that image no matter how hard your conscious mind fights, you can win the lottery and end up broke again in two years if your self-image is "poor person," you can lose 50 pounds and gain it back if your self-image is "fat person," you can land your dream job and quietly destroy it if your self-image is "not good enough," because the brain experiences any mismatch between reality and self-image as a problem to be corrected, and it always corrects toward the image.

This is why goal-setting, willpower, motivation, and discipline almost always fail in the long run, they're all happening at the level of behavior while the self-image underneath stays exactly the same, you can't out-discipline a self-image, you can't motivate yourself past it for more than a few weeks before it pulls you back, the only real way to change your life is to change the picture first, and the picture changes through repeated vivid imagination, especially in the relaxed state right before sleep and right after waking, when the critical part of your mind goes quiet and the subconscious actually listens, you spend ten or fifteen minutes a day living inside the version of you you want to become, with full sensory detail, with the feeling of it already being true, you do that consistently for a few months and the internal picture genuinely shifts, and once the picture shifts the behavior follows by itself, no daily battle required, because now your subconscious is steering you toward a different home.

@elonmusk will you be using grappling hooks to tether the asteroids and bring them back to earth orbit for mining/refinement or be building a super structure that essentially captures the asteroid within to be mined and refined?

FWIW - Had a dream of mining asteroids once

[TruthHammer4EVA @TruthHammer4EVA]

What happens to SpaceX valuation if Elon does something crazy like… harvest one asteroid?

You realize he’s gonna be first to do that, right?

[Pat Stedman | Dating & Relationship Coach for Men @Pat_Stedman]

TherapySpeak is one of the Horsemen of the Apocalypse when it comes to relationship issues. I don't think people understand just how insidious it is. Whenever I hear a client describe his wife or a girl he's been seeing talk this way, I know a bad outcome is imminent.

In TherapyTalkLand, if you felt bad, you were abused. Any discomfort you feel - even if it is simply due to your own dysfunction or anxiety - is in fact justifiable grounds to punish or abandon the other person. They are responsible for everything you feel, and if you don't feel good all the time, it is their fault.

It basically eliminates trust and good faith, as it reframes tension - which is how relationships grow and experience breakthroughs - as narcissistic injury. Self-confrontation and vulnerability are inverted and weaponized as signs you are being manipulated.

In other words, it is gaslighting. But what makes TherapyTalk so much worse than regular gaslighting is that the therapy "brand" has given it legitimacy and authority.

It is not your frame vs her frame anymore. It is your frame vs "the experts." There is no difference of perspectives to negotiate, you are simply a bad person. Clinically.

So much of the romantic problems we are facing as a society today are downstream of therapists encouraging entitled and self-destructive behavior, and this language is a core part of how they proliferate the mind virus. I can't tell you how much I hate most of them.
