          Then what? Implants from musk? Or all audio like podcasts for everything (which is also not better whatever the marketing says).

              I think about that show surprisingly often and how amazing a compression method like that would be right now. Our internet and storage speeds have not remotely kept up with the rapidly expanding size of files these days.

              AKA the new internet (the SAFE network) that has been in development for 18 years and is about to hit beta here in the upcoming weeks.

      We can’t even adopt IPv6 properly, let alone implement and migrate to a new and improved internet.
