shouldn't be hard really.
You know what was a great movie...that one where Christian Slater, who is awesome in everything, I don't know what happened to him. Drugs maybe. Anyhow, he was a WWII bomber pilot and they were just getting blown to shit by the Germans while they were bombing in the daylight.

I thought you weren’t doing that anymore.
I just took a couple of hits and now regret it. I think I'll feel better if I eat an apple.

I only taste alcohol. If I drink, I get palpitations.
Drinking makes me feel poisoned.

This is how GPT sees Michigan100 years from now:
Here’s Michigan in 2125 — Great Lakes adapting to climate chaos, Detroit becoming a vertical tech city, and the land caught somewhere between innovation and decay.
I actually recognize the stretch of road the robot is portraying and it looks a hell of a lot better in that picture. Which is hopeful.  But then again, they've been talking about a Detroit  "renaissance" since I was in high school.

I would never go anywhere out of the US again. I probably can't. Anyhow, a long time ago, being in all those place in Europe and the Middle East was cool but I would appreciate it way more if I had been older and smarter than I was as a kid. I barely remember it. Being in Pompeii, The Colosseum, Athens, Giza, Jerusalem. I'm actually way more interested in that kind of thing now than I was then. It was just a big party, vacation; like spring break.

Spring is two weeks a away. I can't even picture that right now. This is the part of the year where winter really becomes soul crushing. It just won't end. It hasn't been clear at night for like 4 months...really. It's like GD Stalingrad here- monochrome and traumatic.

There’s Ohio (no idea where in Ohio)
Here’s a vision of Ohio in 2125 — a clash between survival and innovation, haunting but still holding onto that Midwest spirit.

I'll buy that. Looks Ohio-ish. I've been around in Ohio...Kelly's Island, Put-in Bay, Port Clinton, Avon Lake, Sandusky...It's hard to avoid. It's the only land route out of here.

This is getting freaky. Maybe it's, you know...like "End Times" now.



World's first 'body in a box' biological computer uses human brain cells with silicon-based computing

[ Attachment Invalid Or Does Not Exist ]

"Australian biotech company Cortical Labs has introduced what it claims to be "the world’s first code deployable biological computer," which combines human brain cells with traditional silicon-based computing. The system, known as CL1, was presented at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona and is being explored for its potential applications in artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning.

The CL1 consists of a silicon chip with lab-grown human neurons cultivated on its surface. These neurons are capable of responding to electrical signals, forming networks that process information similarly to a biological brain."

Cortical Labs said the CL1 will be available from June, priced at around $35,000.

I had some really good times in Ohio. Me and my buddy were in a little bush plane he had and landed in a field on Kelly's Island....or Bass Island...something. Went sailing. I was in that little plane with him dozens of times. It was crazy. The reason me and him had so much fun is that neither one of us got married until our late 30's. So we were single and had money. After that...I don't know what happened.  Now instead of having enough money to have fun all the time, I'm just blowing it on bills, taxes, and supporting my family.

It doesn’t look anything like where I live.
