Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

But wasn't there ONE GUY who volunteered himself to be the first human neuralink recipient? He was good-natured about it, healthy & great personality but permanently wheelchair bound, and he was like, "Sure what the hell, I'm down to try it."
Please tell me if I'm mis-remembering any of those details.
Neuralink the company implanted a non-neuralink device in a volunteers brain, the breakthrough being the technology to implant the device, not the device itself.
Implanting a brain probe is hardly a breakthrough. Implanting a fuckton, well that's a bit different. There's certainly got to be neurosurgery advances before we can get to what has been marketed
