      It depends on the customer wishes. A 20 y.o. would have no problem wearing a futuristic arm, a 70 y.o. however would prefer something more sober, either a "real looking" one or just wearing long sleeves and putting a nice leather glove on the prosthetic hand. The latter would be the most stylish option in my opinion, the best for formal occasions where you have to wear a suit, just make sure that the glove's color matches that of shoes and belt.

      @@autismman102 It can look real without being disturbing. It's just, very difficult and obviously it is still in the early stages.
      There's phases for it. First the purpose is to make it look real from far off, if you're standing across the street from someone and their prosthetic looks real to the point you can't tell, it's worth it for a lot of people. You then improve from there until it looks real enough to be nigh indistinguishable, they can already do it with statues and artwork trust me it's very possible for a prosthetic arm.

    This is such cool stuff!

He is not the best at magic, but he learns how to control objects and stuff, and eventually makes himself a prosthetic to be able to play guitar again. This is definitely sub-plot to the main story, but I need to do it justice out of respect for all the non-fictional amputees out there :)

      @just another human Explain CRISPR if viruses aren't real. BTW speaking of CRISPR one of the problems with it is that the synthetic portion of the DNA is usually shed at a very high rate so it works great on modifying seeds of plants or eggs of say fish like the Danio that have thousands of eggs (Dani was the first GMO fish) but it's not great to use on humans since human females don't have a lot of eggs to waste and also the genetically modified bioweapons (such nCov) would fail to be effective before long because they'd rapidly mutate into a non-lethal form which is probably exactly what happened with this nCov nonsense, assuming it really was a bioweapon leak. In any case; these lockdowns aren't justified at all.

      Congratulations to your son first of all, he seems like a wonderful young man. Obviously losing a hand is horrible, but I must say that whatever struggles he has gone through because of it has definitely strengthened him mentally. I don't just mean his level of knowledge or intellect but most of all he's gained wisdom about life that a lot of people don't aquire until much later on.. I truly believe your son will grow up to do spectacular thing's in his life.
      Oh, I almost forgot, you seem to be one hell of a father as well! My father would have told me to deal with it and stop complaining because he's not going to waste his money, honestly. Growing up with a father that couldn't have cared less makes me admire you that much more.. If I'm being honest your bond with your son and what you do for him brought a few tears to this grown man's eyes. I wish you both the best life has to offer!
