Today I learned that there is a Chinese TV series called 19th Floor. It’s about a group of students who are trapped in a VR game. I guess that means that I can’t sue for copyright infringement. But if a character with a disability and great hair shows up in the second season, I’m going to be very suspicious.
Now that I’ve been using my eye-gaze system for a few weeks, I’m kind of kicking myself for not switching sooner. It’s so much easier to move a cursor across a screen with a glance rather than my head. While I’m still hoping that neural implants become widely available in my lifetime, this is probably the next best thing. I’m even considering getting a bigger monitor now that I won’t have to worry about conserving my energy.
I’m also posting more frequently on message boards, which is probably not a great selling point for this technology.
