The finger magnet has one huge benefit as part of the ability to sense magnetic fields you’ve forgotten about— they interact with magnetic fields around electronics.

I know an electrician with an implant under a fingertip, which he calls his “insurance policy”— one last chance to realize he’s about to grab an energized…

The best starting word is farts and no-one will persuade me otherwise

I have to say, from personal experience, implantable multifocal replacement lenses. I was at the “how many fingers” eye-test stage before surgery, and now have unaided 20/20 in one eye and 20/25 in the other after a lifetime of glasses and contacts. With the multifocals, I trade off haloing around distant bright…

You left out my two favorites—artificial hip joints (thanks, distracted driver) and insulin pumps (you have no frickin’ idea how great those things are—I can go nearly a week without worrying about where my insulin bottle and syringes are).

I use an insulin pump.

Usefulness: 10/10. I’d die without it.

VR Chat is amazing though, what do u mean

Second Life was huge (for some definition of huge) before it slipped off the map, VR Chat’s found a niche (okay, mostly furries, but you know what, good for them, and their avatars are still way better looking and less unsettling than the corporate torsos)... definitely not enough of a return for huge corporations but…

Can we please stop with these fetishization of books? Books are tools and access to information, not decorations or sacred texts. Idk, maybe I was just able to avoid that whole dating pool where this was some green/red flag thing.  

the only thing worse than nfts are jokes about owning/stealing nfts

My problem with that line of thinking is that not a lot is actually worth a damn thing “when you really think about it,” much less anything digital.

As with anything really it’s only worth what someone is willing to pay you for it.  And plenty of dumb people are willing to spend millions on something they will almost certainly get their money back on.

They match - Sephiroth is a “One Winged Angel”, doncha know.

Hello. I made this game. It has made me more money than my previous projects: Auditory The Hamster, and Italian Bros.

When I was about 10 years old, my dad called me into the kitchen. He knew I wasn’t a fan of tea, so he enticed me with a ‘new’ kind of tea that tastes much better, and that I should try it because he thinks he’ll win me over with it.

It was a rather dark tea. There was a straw in the glass already. I took a big sip of…

It’s nothing special, practically anything is a good excuse to whip our dicks out.

Are these the same pesky hackers that put all those porn sites in my browsing history? THESE FIENDS MUST BE STOPPED! 

I’ll jump in with the “B” side. Worked for a utility company. It was routine to be driving hundreds of miles a day in a large work truck. I shared stories of “the other driver” often when I got home after my shift. My son gave me one of these, years ago for Christmas. Said he wanted me to use it in the work truck,…
