    I saw this movie, and I have no faith we have a real-world Neo to save us from it.

      Edit: I wrote this to be funny, but it came across as genuinely pissy and makes me look crazy. Leaving it for posterity, but it’s meant as a joke.

      Fuck you mean “save?” Please, for the love of all that is holy, don’t take the matrix from us! Let us have a matrix, we can all live in there and not worry about the climate or the gas clouds. Heck, I’m pretty sure they can just reincarnate us when we die, so we never even have to lose our family members. The machines were doing us a kindness and Neo came along and fucked it all up. I’ll take my 1999 existence over the shit show of the truth any day.

      And that’s without even going into the fact that I fully believe Agent Smith lied when he told Morpheus that the matrix couldn’t be a paradise. Smith is an unreliable narrator at best.

    This makes me uncomfortable on countless different levels. There’s a reason my country has an ethical council, and this sort of high-int, low-wis crap is it.

    Ya know, I think human brain cells work best in their own human heads. Maybe that’s just me though…

    This means that scientists can develop personalized brain organoids from skin samples of patients suffering from neural disorders, such as Alzheimer’s disease. They can then run multiple tests to investigate how genetic factors, medicines, and toxins influence these conditions.

    TFW ur computer gets dementia.

      That’s just Hard Drive Fragmentation. If you went too long without defragmenting your hard drives eventually the computer would start taking ages to open anything because pieces of files would be scattered all over the physical drive platters
