I am 34 and old enough to have witnessed the digital revolution that has entered our daily life, and remember having played my Sega console. I had my favorite game cassettes of Mortal Combat series. Then Playstation 1 appeared. I didn't particularly like the quality of the graphics in comparison with Sega, but I was good at Pro Evolution Soccer(winning eleven) against my friends.
At the time I remember imagining to control real human players with joystick. It wasn't particularly something I gave deep thoughts to it, but now I understand that that's possible with the brain-computer interface technology.
I know it is kind of Frankensteinian and scary, but I knew it : )
I wish I had understood more by being a scientist or engineer interested in the related fields, but alas, I am 34 and cannot go back in time to study deeper.

This is something that popped in my mind and I just wanted to share.
I remember the N64 coming out and being amazed by the crispness of its graphics. And then when Unreal 2 came out 2003, I thought that was it, photorealism perfected. There's still a way to go yet, but the climb from 2d sprites to fully 3d worlds with physics and all that jazz has been a hell of a ride.

I suppose we should just be glad you didn't take a picture of your toilet after a modestly impressive poo.

This is when you want to be satirical, but you are constipated...
