Plugin solar is starting to role out and may be worth looking into depending on if it’s legal in your area.

You can usually choose which accounts to add and add assets manually if you want but I think generally you don’t want your primary residence in net worth. If you need a snapshot of what you can afford, you don’t want to have to sell your home for it.

It’s too bad the field has so much snake oil.

It seems like most countries are heading in the same direction with their own flavors of fascism. It’s also not that easy to get visas for decent places to live.

I think a generic plug would be great but look at how fragmented USB specifications are. Add that to biology and it’s a whole other level of difficulty.

Brain implants have great potential but the abandonment issue is a problem that exists now that we have to solve for. It’s also not really a tech issue but a societal one on affordability and accountability of medical research. Imagine if a company held the patents for the brain device and just closed down without selling or leasing the patent. People with that device would have no support unless a government body forced the release of the patent. This has already happened multiple times to people in clinical trials and scaling up deployment with multiple versions will make the situation worse.

I don’t really have a take on your personal desires. I do think if anyone can afford one they should make sure it’s not just the up front cost but also the long term costs to be considered. Like buying an expensive car, it’s not if you can afford to purchase it but if you can afford to wreck it.

Another problem is abandonment. When the company goes under or the device becomes outdated and they no longer want to support it the device can’t be easily removed. If the device was fixing a disability, the person’s disability will be reinstated.

Pushpops had a cap but spit would drip down into the push area after a few licks.
