You certainly aren't! I've been thinking about this lately (it's all I think about these days... such dull imagination of mine) but I have fears about viability. I think it's an arms race between Neuralink, DARPA, and Valve to see who makes a working BCI first.

Reply to Instead of escaping to virtual realities, what if we just made our reality as good as any virtual reality could be? by [deleted]

Since the beginning of humanity and especially today people have wildly different opinions and views on how the world works. Today this manifests in the Left vs Right dichotomy (vulgarly known as Clown World) and other insanities that happened throughout the 2010s as a result of people trying to force their worldview into reality.

Reality pushes back.

What's the solution, then? Virtual realities. You got yours and I got mine and you can retire to your mansion full of funko pops while I retire to my apartment full of retro games and everyone's going to be happy. You want rising action? Want adventure? You got it. Want to be a secret agent working for an slider organization tasked to maintaining the peace in various fictional dimensions (SG-1 but better)? Sure, you can. I dig the concept, it's very solid indeed. I don't know if we're ever going to be able to create this technology but if we do a decent amount of people alive would be all-in on it. As in, living there full-time. Now the other parcel of people probably would be concerned with nobler goals... but eh, I never was that kind of guy. Thoughts?

Reply to What is easier to create a paradise for one or for all? by Thiccboifentalin

I mean yeah you're pretty much right. FDVR would be the way to live the cool fantasy life you'd like and pretty much anything in between if you get sick of it. Of course making it a reality is something else altogether. I don't think we can do it on our own and may need AGI to help us.

The craftsmanship of clothing today just sucks. From circa 1910 to roughly the 70s clothing was mass-produced by factories and the quality was far superior, and that could be said for almost anything produced in factories in that period. Standards just fell through since everything was sent to China to be made by the lowest bidder.
