@comraderobot.bsky.social(“Notorious RBMK”) saying:my friend who still lives in palo alto gave me permission to share this mailer he got.
there’s unhinged and then there’s tech unhinged

the guy behind this startup:
- (CW bloody photos) “I confirm the information published in the Daily Mail. On May 17, 2023, I performed by myself trepanation, electrode implantation, and electrical stimulation of my brain’s motor cortex. I needed it to test brain stimulation during lucid dreaming”

“I confirm the information published in the Daily Mail. On May 17, 2023, I performed by myself trepanation, electrode implantation, and electrical stimulation of my brain’s motor cortex. I needed it to test brain stimulation during lucid dreaming”
Techbros are cultists, complete with blood rituals. Sure, sometimes self inflicted spectacles, but it doesn’t really stop there if there’s some Megele-style “experimentation” to do.
There’s blood rituals and then there’s “i drilled a hole into my own skull and stuck an electrode into it to make this look less like powerpoint engineering”
Yeah, that’s a new level of it. It’s self-inflicted harm for now.
“Neuralink” already goes beyond self-inflicted for similar bazinga experiments. CW if you dare to see what they’ve already done to hundreds of primates.
This is what you find written on scattered notes in an abandoned asylum in a horror game
I wonder if some bazinga will leave a note by their corpse saying something like “just like in the Outlast treats!”
Use a gun next time. I’ve heard it can trigger a kind of eidetic memory or whatever
Really good documentary on this
