TIL Valve is into brain chips.
To be fair, I think it's specifically Gabe who's been obsessed with brain computer interfaces for the past many years. Obviously it's his company, so Valve by extension participates.
Makes sense, as you get older you get more and more disgusted by the weakness of your flesh, and tend to crave the certainty of steel.
As far as I can see the company behind it (Starfish Neuroscience) is not affiliated with Valve in any way? (Aside from having the same CEO)
And Newell is Valve because it's his private company
The Valve Deckard was a little more ambitious than had been originally anticipated.
