"one-man shooter action" DooM fictionalizations we've seen (or not) so
many of ... COFF's Harbour ...

I can't even trust computers to do the right thing with input specially

it loose on a direct neural interface. Software engineering, as a
discipline, is going to require a lot more actual discipline before
neural interfaces become anything but fuel for a dystopian hellscape.
I'm not saying we can't get there. I'm saying we're not headed in
