Who's brains are they using that's wild

Based on an informative documentary series called Futurama, they traveled back in time and took the brain out of a freshly-deceased Richard Nixon's skull.

More new man-made horrors beyond my comprehention. Just like yesterday and the day before and the day before.

I wonder what tomorrow will bring.

No that long ago if your heart stopped, your were dead. Now if your heart stops we have good chances to rget revived even after several minutes.

This is another step in this direction. Pushing back the boundaries of death.

I'm instantly reminded of the RoboCop scene where the brains they revived and put into robot bodies all went instantly insane

that website is kinda sketchy, look at the sheer AMOUNT of cookie/privacy things that are enabled by default

[-] InverseParallax@lemmy.world 9 points 2 weeks ago

... Yes... That's the only sketchy thing at all happening here...

[-] Lon3star@lemmy.world 11 points 2 weeks ago
