Monkey brain

The nervous system of humans has been corrupted by being fed data from the internet, alcohol, toxic people, society in general etc. A lot of people, understandably so, want to escape this and take control of their own brains, and by extension their nervous systems.

It is illegal to slice up humans and analyze the source code of our brains unless you have a licence. And we as consumers are not provided with all the data the professionals gather. Think about it. We aren't even allowed to know what is in our own brains. This goes completely against the philosophy of Free and Open Source.

You can find monkeys in the wild. They are not an endangered species by any means, which means that people will only report you to the police because of disgust, not because you are breaking laws. [Note: I am not a lawyer and haven't read the laws relating to animals deeply, I do not take responsibility for legal troubles you get in if any]. Rip apart the monkeys and you can see the brain and nerves in their full glory.

Now you may ask, why monkeys of all animals? That is because they are one of the animals closest to humans that an individual can realistically capture. You do not want to fight a Chimpanzee unless you don't care a lot about your life.

You may realize that you don't understand the brain even though you have it. No worries there. You can't understand the code of any FOSS application you use either. The important thing is that the source is available to you without restrictions.

Another question you may ask is that "This is too primitive". This is a misunderstanding. People(non-developers only) think the command line is primitive and outdated now that graphical interfaces exist. This is simply not true. We are simply going back to our roots.

To self host it, you can simply install its docker image. Now this is the tricky part, since we don't have a traditional OS. Basically, primitive brains, all they do it eat, sleep, reproduce, and do dopamine releasing activities. All you need to achieve this is follow the following two steps. They are very simple and everyone can achieve it without any technical knowledge or difficulty.

  • Reject modern humanity
  • Return to monkey
