      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.

    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.

        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.

    You start getting healthier and losing weight just by eating real food instead of American poison, living in NZ or any other country that cares for its citizens will do that for you

        The ease of access and availability of unprocessed foods, or food products without high amounts of corn syrup, sugars and other additives, is much higher in most of the world outside of the US. I can never stay in the US for more than a couple of weeks without gaining weight. Then again, it doesn’t help that US food is fantastically tasty, either ♥️

        There have been account after account of people leaving the States for one reason or another (Military relocation, job placement, etc), monitor their diet and actually find that while they are technically eating more, they are losing weight.

        America’s got problems.

          Bullshit. The laws of thermodynamics will not be denied.

          Now, if you told me the American food industry was just lying about calorie content in the first place…

            Probably more a case that people don’t look at calories and make the comparison based on volume eaten, feelings etc.
