AHH, red one is a cheapo multi-meter
Yellow one is specifically for measuring tiny tiny capacitive values. I used to use it to grade the SMD capacitors i would get in. thats where i saw how much they varied in printed capacetence. also why i have the tweezers on that one.

I really hope so. Letās hope the testers come back positive!

Sounds like a plan, but you might end up machining some literal black magic:
Letās aim to get things done in less than 18 months however.

Stop beating around the bush, you know that Iām actively seeking to convert.
I also found a higher resolution version but itās going to need some editing. Iāll get around to it once Iām back in front of my computer, doing this on a phone kinda sucks.

I suspect that those flex pcb arrays are likely going to get encapsulated in scar tissue.
It looks like they are using a biocompatible kapton like material for the āboardā, and biocompatible solder mask.
Anyways, how bad is collagen encapsulation at transmitting the signals?
Most capacitors can be -20% to +80% of the printed value IIRC. But check the datasheet for the specific ones that youāre using. Higher precision ones are available.
i was buying +/-5% and they were āOkayā about 60% were actually within that tolerance.

Tangential note, this thread basically doesnāt work for me on mobile or desktop any more. Itās almost like forum threads arenāt intended for live conversations between hundreds of people

I love hearing converted Musk stans divert their energies to talking about all the people doing things better. It warms the cockles of my heart.
The precision is a vastly superior solution. I also want to hear more about wearable fNIRS devices, but theyāre all giant helmets for either alt health or video games. Thereās so many interesting use cases like simple phone controls over bluetooth that could be done with a tiny fNIRS wearable device.
Itās certainly less scary than to have wires inserted into your brain, it definitely looks like a better solution, and it should be easier to remove without leaving a big hole in your skull. However, Iām rather skeptical about the long term durability of both solutions for the time being.
Iāve been thinking about looking into this for a while but havenāt had the time or resources to dip my toes in.

If you hate getting AI results, There is a solution
A huge blocklist of manually curated sites (1000+) that contain AI generated content, for the purposes of cleaning image search engines (Google Search, DuckDuckGo, and Bing) with uBlock Origin or uBlacklist.
A hosts file for pihole/adguard is available as well.
Important Read:
Right now, please use uBlacklist instead of uBlock Origin for now.
Needs a little restructuring to fix DOM targeting. You can still try uBlock, but it will probably not work as you expect it to.

I had been ignoring it

Fixed now, Thanks.

Gor those not aware
BioCom is Hokers āBasicā NFC reader.
It also does PGP encrypted/decrypt text.
I really like it, infact
And just noticed the app has been removed from the playstore
so here you go

Lol, thatās sweet of ya. Personally I hate Biocom. I wrote it so long ago:P AM is much much better. Though it obviously doesnāt work for non-P71/P60 chips. Is there something about it specifically that youād like to see ported over? Iām working on PGP encryption/decryption in AM now.

Yea the biggest issue I have with neuralink was the fact that it replaced a large section of skullā¦ I canāt quite articulate why, but I didnāt like thatā¦ below or above is fineā¦ instead of bother me
I like this approach
