Agreed. Plus the animal testing is bad.

I'm hopeful that the tech won't be abused because it's life changing for those that need it.

The 29-year-old complete quadriplegic shared that he had lost sensation and suffered paralysis from below the shoulders after sustaining a spinal injury during a diving accident eight years ago

Arbaugh also revealed that the implant had given him the freedom to pull an all-nighter playing the strategy game Sid Meier’s Civilization 6 - something that he could not have done on his own before the surgery.

This is the kind of use case for neuralink that I'm okay with.

This is the map from The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past. Not Links Awakening as a few others have said.

Reminds me of when I implemented content aware scaling for computer graphics in college. I used it to make this monstrosity:

Received a report saying:

please allow the community to vote on dead pet posts.

The community already votes on dead pet posts via upvotes/downvotes. And the results are largely in favor of allowing these posts.

I understand that death is a tough subject for some people. These sort of posts make me tear up too. But our beloved furry friends are not immortal. They all die eventually.

If this community can serve as a place to help people grieve when they lose their pets then I'd say it's worth making a few people uncomfortable.

Rest in peace, Izumi. You were a beautiful cat that was clearly well loved in life.

It was given to me so I don't know where it's originally from.

I found what looks like the same thing by searching "mushroom scratching post" on amazon.

There's no knife nearby. Guess I'll get to gnawing.

He's best known for his music and animations. I didn't know that he did other art until you posted his Peantus RPG piece a few days ago.

I recommend his album Y2K. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QUW7RTRErT0
