I still hold that if/when someone develops an actual functional chip to go in our brains, the first bit of homebrew is going to be adblocking.
Then we'll see if the human brain can run DOOM, as is tradition.
The good news: it can run DOOM easily. The bad news: we don't know how to get it to stop running DOOM.
My brain has been running DOOM for years. A paper bag to breathe into, the 5-4-3-2-1 method, and Xanax in the worst cases help.
