Watch the video, he looks like a completely different person

Watch the video, it looks like he’s lost a ton of weight

Look at coreboot. You can flash your bios with open source software!

It should be gimli, and that might work better

Wait no I’m wrong.

I’ve been down south since college, about 14 years.

I hate it, but no I haven’t had that happen

It’s funny though, reading those books it seems that Michael Crichton has deep disdain for scientists.

Good point. Imo humans are just biological machines responding to stimulus so any stimulus is going to change the system somehow.

Was gonna say, we have proven that external stimulus can change the brain so yes in a broad sense we can mind control today.

Given enough time and research I’m confident we could understand how to influence the brain in more complicated ways.

We still don’t really understand the brain though and it’s perfectly possible that other things can influence it (gut bacteria?) so strictly sending stimulus to the brain might not be enough

No way temple of doom is worse than crystal skull right? I guess if you ignore the racism.

To be fair that could be a wild movie

According to one of the articles above the publishers operating profit last year was “only” $300m so that bonus would make the shareholders mad I guess.

I like Beau, gave it a watch. Was at like 40k when I did.

Won’t work for everyone but I switched to thin sandals and my feet got much stronger and healthier.
I’m still working on the being too fat part

Shit good point. Through multiple deaths I am a fractional owner of 3 properties, and I can’t afford to be a homeowner

Same. We have to get private equity out of homes, but telling people on the edges that they will get caught up is going to make it a tough sell. Even if we account for the example above, another family that wasn’t on the edge of affordability might be after the change.

With something like this we may need to offer buybacks or short loved exemptions of some sort.

I know for the public good this is the right answer but this is not a winning strategy

This makes me unreasonably annoyed. Good for you OP!
