Without spoilers, I will say it gave me two incorrect answers before I gave up. I think it's neat, but it didn't feel quite ready to me.

Oh boy! The game we should have had at launch? I can't wait to get in my space ship, take off from a planet, fly to a new one, and land without being forced to fast travel.

I'm a practicing prosthetist in the US. Myoelectric hands are nothing really that new and even getting control over the hand by surgically dropping an emg directly into the muscle groups (though their diagram implies they did something different) isn't terribly groundbreaking. The FDA had that technology in animal testing right around the start of the pandemic, from what I remember talking to an engineer working on a project.

For me, the exciting part is the osseointegration through the forearm. Osseointegration has been going on since like the 90s, but for a long time it was only through the femur. The first reason is really that the West has way more lower limb than upper limb amputations which is a different story. The second reason is that the femur is a big bone with a lot of interior space for an implant to anchor.

Recently I've been seeing transtibial osseointegration surgeries being performed, which has been a pretty big deal. This is the first I've seen of it being done to a transradial.

I will definitely be reading more about this at work tomorrow.

The answer: a malicious contributor added hate speech to the Ukrainian translation. ISO will cover back up once they can go through all of the files and make sure there isn't any they didn't find at first.

We've seen it? Where have you seen it?

It's a stupid question because you obviously and constantly encounter communism or because your conviction is stronger than your argument?

Oh? And where do you experience communism?

No ash? That's smoking butane.

A crown prosecutor told the court the woman’s role in the plot was to obtain the drugs for Knudson to sell inside the prison, where a single strip of buprenorphine can fetch close to $1,000.

As said in the article, yes. Prison prices.

My partner and I left the apple ecosystem about a year ago. We got new phones and gave our old watches, airtags, and airpods to friends and family that wanted them. It felt like it was going to be too much to give up, but honestly it's been great.

There's so much more freedom in every facet of the phone. Apple likes to give an option, a rich people option, and occasionally a truly professional tier. Leaving Apple behind, I have wireless earbuds I love that have an 8hr lifespan out of the dock. They were fifty dollars and they sound easily better than airpods. It felt like it would be expensive to leave, but the alternatives once you leave the ecosystem tend to be cheaper pound for pound.

Uh, yeah, sure about Diablo and whatever. But, uh, what the fuck is this

I'll forget I'm a hyper intelligent demigod for a moment and slum it with you mortals over this jovial exercise.
