I am not willing to play ball with unremovable direct human interfacing or any form of two way interfacing with cognition. Some other generation perhaps, but I am not interested and never will be.

While trying to digest the source material, the phrase "Tenser, said the Tensor. Tenser, said the Tensor. Tension, apprehension, And dissension have begun." keeps playing over and over in my head. This isn't said for a laugh.

After working in tech, I do not trust them anywhere near my neurons. I do not need sponsored dreams, ransomware making me forget my kids until I pay a hacker, rolling release schedules of stuff in my head, or getting ddossed, because in meat terms that's a siezure. No thank you. I have seen the quality of code that is the norm.
