And there are actual real life goobers dying to get one themselves.

It's so incredibly ironic that these are probably the same goobers who talk about microchips in vaccines.

I really want a neural pointing device, but not by this dork.

I absolutely would. I'd not line up to be among the first, but controlling devices via a brain interface is an inevitable step of technological evolution.

It will provide such an immense performance boost, that many professions may become unattainable without having one. Possibly within our lifetime.

If it can reroute my neurons to lessen my ADHD and autism traits I would gladly pay with 3/4 of waking hours filled by ads. At least that would give me 1/4 more working brain than I currently have

Is about to kiss the love of their lives "And now, I wanna show our newest sponsor! Hello Fresh have the best options so you can make your own dinner and blah blah blah..."

You clearly have no idea what a brain interface is.

Inevitability ain't what it used to be.
