What needs to be invented?

A lawnmower that works like the roomba. You could program the area you wanted mowed and when it was done the mower would return home and plug itself back in.

They're already on the market. Do an internet search for "robot lawn mower". I doubt this would work very well in my yard, what with the irregular contours, mole hills, fallen branches, and the occasional pile of bear scat. :ROFLMAO:

They are on the market, but they're pretty narrow. They mow a path that's only about a foot across. It does return to its "home" though.

They go around obstacles, and make it up hills and over holes fairly well, but I wouldn't want it running over piles of bear scat. That might do it in.

An electronic device that would be fitted to police vehicles that would shut down the engine of escaping vehicles. Using focused low frequency micro waves that would be aimed at the wanted vehicle, causing the engine's computer to stop working. JIMB.

That or something just as effective (shutdown from a central source) is coming, if not already here.
 
An interesting thing I have seen is a device that highlights where veins are, for easier blood draws.
But, to answer OP question, maybe some kind of device that can "read" blood pressure without squeezing the life out of your arm.

Yes, of course. I hear *rate your pain* almost every time I see my doctor. Problem is, for people who've had years of chronic pain (decades, in my case), their 4 would likely be your 8 or 9. If you're accustomed to pain, that scale is garbage. I hate that scale.

About rating your pain.......
Is it a sharp pain, a jabbing pain, a heavy pain, a dull pain, a throbbing pain, etc, etc. They never have a category of "frikken hurts like hell pain".

I found a company in the USA that makes a device called Star Chase, which is fitted to the front of the Police vehicle. It fires a sticky/magnetic dart that attaches to the rear of the subject vehicle. The dart broadcasts the GPS location of the wanted vehicle. The Police drop back, and let the car drive on, but they are monitoring it on their in car computer system. When the wanted vehicle stops, the Police come up and surround it. I like the idea, and it is in use in a number of US States now. link.

Was wondering what this thread might look like after never opening after a week. Glad I didn't as most members just made jokes or comic book level nonsense.

Organic nanorobots inserted to move about our extracellular bloodstream fluids are already being heavily researched that together with exploding DNA science could have tremendous benefits in medical science, helping us live longer.

Or maybe used as organic kill switches.
Or maybe to control.

Organic robots swimming around in our bloodstream might help us live longer but meanwhile, what about man's sin nature destroying the planet with nuclear weapons, etc...yeah, that "nonsense". Good luck with those organic robots.

I do have a renewed faith in the possibility of peace regarding no more wars though...at least not for the next 4 years, but there's always going to be good and evil...that's a given. I'd rather go when it's my time.

That totally gets around the frequency issue I mentioned earlier.

Cool stuff.

Or "All of the Above."

My back specialist used to give some of his patients a line-drawn image of a person and a set of colored pens, each color representing a specific type of pain. You'd just color in where the sharp pain is, where it's achy, tingly, radiating, etc.
I liked those.

The clinic liked the idea so much, they use the image + colored indicators for all spine patients, but the downside is, you have to fill the damn thing out every freaking time you go in. You should only have to do it when there's been changes...but whatever. Still better than the zero to 10 thing.

Sounds sort of like pure hell of agony, living in diapers and getting pretty nurses to clean my privates. Wishing to pick the day and leave in privacy and dignity seems better! Besides I would only be lying in my SCAT for 6 / 8 hours waiting for that petty lil thing to scrub my balls clean.

Sort of sick of the Legal Drug Dealers and all the promises but when you read the side affects you a dead and gruesome death too. Then add up all the costs and you Dead, Broke and Worse off than a newborn baby.

Pick the day, ya had a great chance at a good life. Nuff‘s nuff. … :coffee: …

This says more about you than anything else. You and your way of thinking shudders my bones.
