If I'm not mistaken, this advancement responds to a key area that causes many implant users to abandon their prostheses after time, which is that the body just adapts to life without it (thus making the prostheses a bit of hassle).

Not here to say "MISSION ACCOMPLISHED" but yeah, Futurology sub, progress in the areas I understand need progress...what's the problem here? That the perfect solution hasn't arrived yet?

You’ve clearly never had your life and freedom threatened by an emotionally volatile person feels in a heated situation.

That’s good, but it also seems to lack perspective on the current state of affairs. Mind you, I didn’t make the law that says it’s now okay to shoot cops who go too far, I just paid attention to the circumstances that made it necessary.

I mean, if you criminalize everything than everyone is a criminal. The average American breaks numerous laws each day, not out of any malice, but because our thousands upon thousands of laws are layered in such a way as to make sure we’re all guilty of something.

Did you have the wrong plant? Did you cross the street not in the 2% of road reserved for pedestrians? Is your house up to code? There’s always a law being broken and corrupt cops ready to use them.

This completely ignores the fact that people are arming themselves to defend against lawless cops. Because who else is going to do it, the cops?

When you act like an occupier in a society you don’t live in, people are going to respond to that.

We just had a state legalize shooting cops breaking into your home because that’s where US policing is at these days. We don’t need to run to their defense on hiring issues when it’s a problem they created

They know the repercussions for police all right. That’s why they keep on doing it.

Right? It’s like the job has coddled awful people for so long that awful people know they can do awful things and seek that position out now.

So we have police forces manned by awful people seeking to use their power to do awful things and they protect each other.

Remind me why our taxes fund these assholes and not healthcare again

No, we need to hold them to higher standards.

I don’t know about you, but I don’t run around with a gun always on my person and a full blown assault kit in my car. I don’t ruin people’s entire lives with my judgment calls. And I don’t end people’s freedom and prospects for a decent life.

They need to be held to a higher standard than the average person because they’ve been entrusted with great power. Power they’ve shown they are not fit to wield
