At the upcoming SXSW Conference… Honda will give attendees a chance to try out a new mobility device… specifically designed for mixed reality entertainment experiences.

Users can steer… without the use of their hands — they simply have to lean into one direction to move forwards, backwards, sideways or diagonally.

Good, Gourd. Can we please just stop all this abstraction away from the real world? It’s all a little too Brave New World. We just need Soma and our AR goggles, and then we never need to leave the house again. 🤦

We just need Soma

Maybe why our keepers are allowing pot to be legalized.

Lmao I don’t think pot is supposed to be the analog but probably in somebody’s mind, yes

Don’t be ridiculous. You can’t sleep in a VR headset. I can’t even sleep with a watch on.

Too late … American pharmaceuticals basically medicate the entire world with all kinds of exotic drugs for all kinds of mental disorders, conditions and situations.

It’s so normalized now that most people don’t even acknowledge that they, their family, their friends or the people they know are taking some sort of anti depressant, anti psychotic, simulant or mood altering drug to treat some condition.

I get it some modern drugs are needed by some people to treat a debilitating condition but I refuse to believe that a large percentage of the world needs all these drugs on a regular basis.
