bionic man

this is from facebook. since i am disabled, i get lots of mobility assistence stuff on my feed.. which i think is cool now and pretty comforting to knot that tech is on my side and i might just be MORE mobile than I am now, thanks to some tech. Problem is I know this kinda stuff will cost an arm and a leg. (pun intended)

also, it seems the focus right now is to enhance leg strength and not to inhance balance, which is what I really need.

It’s really nice that tech is helping with mobility. I also think it’s true that many of these tools cost too much, which makes it hard for people who need them most.

and to be a cyborg is very cool! :P i would get strong robot limbs and a eye(s) maybe. who know what else they can come with. maybe a bionic organs to prolong life?..

Who knows, maybe in the future we can mix human and robot parts. I would like faster legs so I can run without getting tired. 🤣

i would like to play tennis again. also, u could just run everywhere and no real need for transpo.

Wow, tennis! Nice

Reading this, I couldn't help thinking less about the exoskeletons and more about the algorithms behind your feed. It's impressive how accurately they can identify a person's situation and continuously push highly targeted content. Useful in this case, but it also shows the level of profiling that has become normal in the digital world.

hmmmmm. yes, interesting..
