This is one of those David Icke things where you’re not sure if reptilians/fairies/aliens mean reptilians/fairies/aliens or if they're some kind of code or euphemism.

@froztbyte

The guardian is kind of irrelevant to what I was getting at.

I mean they didn't seem very fashy at first. The later ones (2018, when she was fashy on the down-low ) started to get TERFy but earlier (2010-2014) it was all "the police aren't your friend” and stuff about government trying to restrict the right to protest, etc.

(I looked over her Guardian contributions after reading about the bankruptcy etc in this thread.)

Have to wonder what happened to her brain since the days when she had stuff published at the Guardian.

Just an example of the data involved in a brain-computer interface.

@Soyweiser @V0ldek

The multi-electrode systems at the lab I worked in 2009 used a fiber connection to the host PC and generated terabytes of data, for just 128 or 92 electrodes (I forget) at not-all-that-many samples per second.

A lab I worked in (as an IT guy) used them for data collection, studying visual attention in monkeys.

Not a happy place for the monkeys although I'm confident the scientists did their best to not make it any worse than it had to be.

Not the first, actually a late entrant.

I worked in a lab using implanted brain-computer interfaces 14 years ago.

Other labs using the same system had monkeys controlling robot arms, and a human controlling a computer.

Cryonics is a grift, nobody is going to be cured of death by future Dr Jesus.

Lasik doesn't work for every vision problem.
