Yeah, people have said that they thought I'd love the idea of a brain implanted computer so I could do cool hacker shit or VR.
Like, noooooo that'd be like the Matrix run by the upper management suites of Boeing and Microsoft.
"Yeah we're sorry hackers broke in and stole all your childhood memories but we couldn't apply any security updates because the QA team had to be fired after the last one left them all barking like dogs and pissing on trees, . Don't worry, we'll fix it in BrainOS 9.8. You'll need to pay for that updated but we're now offering a choice between our premium $1500/mo subscription model or new ads-in-your-dreams model for $600/mo"
Wake up, watch a 30 seconds ads.
Go to shit, watch 5 minutes ads while you shit.
While I am on the shitter might actually the most effective time for an ad. It used to be pretty common to keep magazines by the can and those had ads for sometimes interesting stuff
Nobody reads magazines for the ads.
They don't read them for the ads , but if you're bored and on the shitter for an extended period you may read them anyways
If they were replaced with articles you would read those too. Regardless of that I'm never going to be okay with advertising being beamed into my brain. I don't care how bored I am.
