Oh nice, so can I.
This robotic hand has such sensitive touch that it can grasp objects as fragile as a potato chip or a raspberry without crushing them

But you cost money monthly, require insurance, taxes, food, human rights.
Machine is a one time purchase.

Right, I’ve never once had to fill a cars tank with gas, or change the oil, or pay for any other maintenance on one.
Widdershins@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Machines require upkeep. Shit wears out, shit breaks down, shit needs a constant stream of lube oil, coolant by the barrel coming in every month, waste coolant shipped somewhere else all the time, shit stops working for no reason. Shit needs to run to make back any money. You’ll have to hire and pay somebody with human rights and an empty stomach since you already know all there is to know about machines. If you think machines don’t break go ahead and open yourself up a machine shop and see how long it lasts with a $0 maintenance budget. Speedrun turning a million dollars into a pile of rusty scrap metal.

I tried this with my Kia Forte and destroyed my priceless Fabergé egg collection. I’m ruined!

It is imperative that the cylinder remains unharmed.

It’s strong enough to crush a boulder! But gentle enough to crush a butterfly.

I take a potato chip with my carbonfiber prosthetic hand… and I eat it!

Why not just use a raspberry or a potatoe chip instead of objects as fragile as them?
PabloSexcrowbar@piefed.social 2 weeks ago
You’d have to keep switching between raspberries and potato chips and the robot would get all messy.
Imgonnatrythis@sh.itjust.works 2 weeks ago
If they want to use it in healthcare as stated they need to teach it to get a little messy.

Cool, so can it help MAGA get a grip on reality?

It’s not magic.

Literally every person here man or woman had the same exact thought. Don’t let them shame you for being a pervert.

I never feel shame 😉

Is it sensitive enough to touch my self esteem without damaging it?
Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Oh no…
Oh. I thought you were going in a whole different direction there…

A robo hand job is yet another way AI is taking our jerbs

A hole new direction, even.

Can it handle a cylinder without it being damaged?
Lemming6969@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Soft enough to let you down gently as it takes your job
