If it solves my tinnitus, I'm all for it.

Look into Lenire. First FDA-approved treatment
Thanks for reminding me of it.
You are very conscious of your breathing and there’s no comfortable place for your tongue in your mouth.
What's that about ? my tongue rests comfortably at the bottom of my mouth, as I assume most tongues do (in their respective mouths)
It’s part of a series of statements akin to “you are suddenly conscious of your breathing” that impact a subset of people vulnerable to thinking about things like this when they are pointed out. The tongue one might not work on you whereas the breathing works on most
I understand. What does it for me is the jaw. It seems like my jaw has no rest pose, and if I deliberately conscientise this fact, it becomes an annoyance. But my tongue is fine
Tinnitus is something very hard to ignore.
Well, for me it depends on the day. Sometimes my Tinnitus isn't that loud and sometimes he is screaming.
Depends how long you’ve had it and how severe. I’ve had it for 23 of my 27 years now, and I hear it less and less as time passes.
( had multiple ear infections as a small child )
Yeah no thanks
Is this what were getting instead of half life 3?
HL3 brain dance confirmed.

I like that vision of future (implants are cool, neural interfaces can be useful), but I'd also like our world to stop and think a bit at every stage.
Solve the global network (note how I'm not saying "global computer network", because I don't think so, ideally we'd still have global analog commutated channel network as the base level), web of hypertext documents, universal applications and personal computing problems sufficiently well first. Then go to brain implants.
It's like combat drones, using them with optical cables for communication is better than with radio, turns out. That's the current way.
Would be good if for computing we'd figure out ways better than war to remove delusions.
When Gabe or Musk are the first people to get the implant, I'll consider it... 10 to 15 years later.
As long as theres no wifi and its to solve medical issues, why not? Better than trusting a nazi.
Digital onboard data processing and spike detection allows the device to operate via low-bandwidth wireless interfaces.
It also receives power wirelessly so probably going to be the only option.
not "no wifi". It's "no any kind of wireless connections" and even then I'll say no.

“The non WiFi versions cost more and are not supported by most insurance.”

Poor monkes 🐒
😬
Wow Valve was on a great series of wins, this is a rare loss for them. Who wants this? Best case people will be sitting in meetings playing Half Life 3 in their brains. I don't really want that.
