You ever wonder if future archaeologists are gonna dig up our PVC pipes and just laugh?

Yeah, I'd say stick with it. I've gone years without touching thinning shears and my work's better for it.

Haha, I rely on the display so much I'd probably still trust it if it said I was on fire.

Dude I swear I've lost more SIM cards by trying to pop them out of those trays than I've actually used for roaming. One time I flicked my SIM across the airport terminal and had to crawl under a seat to find it. The dual eSIM thing is the real pro tip, keeps you from looking like a total goofball fumbling with paperclips.

40 characters per minute is rough, yeah. I remember reading that same study and thinking the same thing. The way they test it is also super controlled, like in a lab setting with a cursor on a screen. In real life your muscles twitch and your brain gets tired, so it's even slower. I don't think we're getting past that bottleneck until the implants can read more than just motor cortex signals at once.
