Scientists have developed a brain implant that allows a monkey to control a robot with brain impulses. Just another indicator that human/machines interfaces are probably only a decade or so away. I’ve always dreamed of being able to drive a car with my brain. I’d even be happy to be able to control my entertainment system with thought rather than having to talk my nurses through multiple steps on a complex remote control. Or just answering the phone. I hereby offer my services as human guinea pig when these devices reach human test trials.
Spammers are the true vermin of the human race. I’ve started to notice porn spam in the comments section of the blog. I know there are ways to prevent it, but so far it’s a minor annoyance. Still, is there no medium that these vampires won’t touch? Will the whole internet one day become just a world-spanning back alley for purveyors of penis enlargement pills and low-interest mortgages?
