      great.

      Now I need to rewatch that show.

      Again.

      Not that I hate it.

      I just want to announce it and hope that people will join in.

            The Good Place! Just go in blind, and definitely push through it it’s not too much of your thing, it’s 4 seasons and the ending makes it absolutely worth it. Amazing show all around.

                Yeah I don’t know why I said that ahah.
                It’s a great show, if you enjoyed what Michael Schur made so far (The Office, Parks and Recs, Brooklyn 99, etc.), you’ll definitely enjoy it.

    sucks me in and makes me feeling like I’ve just been imprisoned in a nightmarish hellscape for 10,000 years

    Black Mirror, White Christmas episode. The episode also takes “blocking someone” to a whole new degree of whoa.

      That episode is why Cancel Culture scares me and why I hate mob mentality online… With the net smaller than ever, a ban on any site is basically your whole life over.

      Just shut off from entire communities and outlets. From friends you can’t access on any other platform.

      Ostracized and chased from the net in the age where more of the world is online than off.,

      Or Picard getting stranded on that desert island, and spends about a week eating strange mushrooms and carving flutes from animal bones. To this day the Enterprise crew deny it ever happened, and fabricated some story involving time dilation

    I laughed uncontrollably at this. I’m really glad I didn’t see this last night while I was high, I probably would have had a huge asthma attack. It’s gold.

    neuralink (and similar brain/machine interfaces) makes this possible. it’s not funny to me

        I don’t think anything could make this possible, unless it was possible for another device to take over the “thinking” processing.

        Our brains can change how they experience time to process things faster, but they need to shut off a lot of the higher thought to do so (it can happen during life/death scenarios). And even then, the descriptions I’ve heard of that where there’s a decent real time reference makes it sound like the thought speedup was only by a factor of less than 10, probably not more than 5.

        And even with another device that could “think” for you even faster, I believe the closest it could really do is implant memories of having spent a large amount of time stuck in some device. Though it depends on the low level details of what conscious thought and existence actually are.

          At the risk of being that guy; this is an appeal to an authority, and not a very good one at that.

          In the article she expresses she’s just philosophizing on hypothetical technologies.

          It’s really not that much different from thinking about episode ideas for Black Mirror.
