What, forget my name and shit myself uncontrollably after downloading Service Pack 3? No thanks.
Presumably it could cool my heart down during a heart attack or move my metabolism up so that I don't have to work out and can eat what I want. 


Too lazy to work out?

I would be interested in a power armor upgrade.

As for the "chips in the head" business.

Yes, I would even volunteer for the trials.

So shoot me as a goddamn futurist idealist...

:o I haven't seen you in ages! :hug:
It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

Even when I work out I'm not able to eat cake at every meal.  Or dessert.

USEH LINUCS

Just imagine the first time grandma has to recompile the kernel. :lol:


I would not mind chips that work as isolated, redundant systems. Direct interaction with bodily functions and internet connection at the same time sounds like a very bad idea, though.
It will happen, of course. Just a matter of time.

Linux these days isn't so much the joke option it used to be.
I am seriously tempted to wipe windows and use ubuntu on my laptop- the only thing holding me back is that games won't work. If my laptop wasn't going to be my only compter from Friday I'd do it though.

All breast implants for women above "A" cup should be banned.

I'd be pretty scared of this but if somehow they worked perfectly and weren't just Gov. GPS tracking chips with some add-ons and mods. hells yes. I want bionic limbs and laser eyes.

To be completely honest I'd go yes for all of the alternatives given.
First Maxim - "There are only two amounts, too few and enough."
First Corollary - "You cannot have too many soldiers, only too few supplies."
Second Maxim - "Be willing to exchange a bad idea for a good one."
Second Corollary - "You can only be wrong or agree with me."

A terrorist which starts a slaughter quoting Locke, Burke and Mill has completely missed the point.
The fact remains that the only person or group to applaud the Norway massacre are random Islamists.
