      Uh, last day or what? And, uh, as for Noah I assume you’re referring to the fairy tale, right? You do know that’s not real, right?

      Maybe I see the need for these implants more and more…

    with these types of technologies they are very cutting edge but also have risks of patients being left behind after support for the specific implant is over or discontinued..

      If you were completely paralyzed and couldn’t talk or move any of your limbs and this would let you communicate again you’d probably think differently.

    This is a terrible sin, God does not want people doing this, period. They always drag some disabled person out to “ sell” the public on how great it is, then it gets out of control and dangerous. We dont need this crap.

    Sounds kind of cool on the surface, but I wonder what the long-term health risks are. Could this cause brain cancer or make it more difficult to go through airport security or do MRIs as some people have mentioned?
