I'm going to burn all my technology and live in the woods if they put ads in sleep.

If you're talking about what you can feel, what you can smell, what you can taste and see, then 'real' is simply electrical signals interpreted by your brain. Do you think that's air you're breathing, SorosFootSoldier?

The Palo Alto Uber Alles book should be a must read in hexbear theory

I haven't read it obviously but I heard people talk about it for an hour

I kinda want to listen to the Trashfuture episode but I'm dreading November will say something anticommunist

[-] RNAi@hexbear.net 6 points 2 months ago

Eh the risk is always present, but way less in Trashfuture than in WTYP

[-] Coolkidbozzy@hexbear.net 5 points 2 months ago

it's so good, only 3/4 of the way through but it should be taught in schools

Game Dev: In my game we invented HypnOS as a cautionary tale

Tech company: we have created HypnOS from Hypnospace Outlaw

"What the fuck, Morpheus."

"Neo, listen and contemplate. Think of the possibilities and the potential revenue streams if we interrupted REM sleep and pumped ads into people's brains."

people kept noticing the dreamlike quality of AI generated images and some techbro made the connection in a K-hole as a way to keep this hypebubble alive

This is clearly a grift, and the target is investors, so good luck to them honestly.

Well wishes rescinded if they ever actually ship a product, of course.

You too can achieve REM AI powersleep by implanting Elon's Neuralink brainblender-brand cyberchip 9000 directly into your skull

It comes with a power plug attached so you can increase your sleep performance with 200 volts of pure electricity blasted straight into your tiny mind.

[-] LanyrdSkynrd@hexbear.net 3 points 2 months ago

They should have promised the ability to work while you sleep. Tech bro types will throw piles of cash at it.
