    Gotta be Ozempic.

    Too many famous people who’ve been overweight for decades suddenly losing weight in the last couple of years.

    Nothing wrong with it though, hopefully it will start helping regular people lose weight as well.

      Hopefully. But it feels like we do this very often. We get a drug or something else that does this or that and is touted as being the best at this and then a few years later we announce that it was a horrible decision and has harsh consequences. Cigarettes, plastic, trans fats, so many dietary trends…

      I’d love to try it but I’m skeptical just for this reason. Hoping not to hear in a decade that all these people developed the same type of cancer or some other horrible ailment.

      Yeah, this is the first I’m hearing of the company. At first glance, I just assumed the whole site was a scam, and these were AI generated.

        Can’t blame you, it looks like Gabe’s head was cropped and stuck on some random guys body, then airbrushed around his beard.

        Nah Gabe working on a god tier game. He just want to be able to say the same thing we all do… “you mean, you have to use your hands?”

        Where we’re going, we don’t need peripherals.

    The actuators are quite surprising. They want to provide feedback to the brain, not just “listen” it’s waves, but “tell” it some too…

          Their brain interface will be mostly solidly designed with some rough edges, and 0.0003% of users will run into a bug that makes them constantly feel the vague smell of popcorn.
