Turns out, exoskeletons are also pretty often used in a healthcare fields which seems more promising. I think humanity should change their mind on creating stupid robots and instead do something truly useful technology that complements humans physical insufficiency.

My friend's chair, an adult, was $35,000. Will likely last her 10years before having to be replaced.

Rule of thumb: if it's got a "medical" tag on it, the price tag automatically quadruples.

I believe they're just posting what would actually have been heartwarming, rather than donating significant unpaid labor to a corporation's profit margin.

The idea behind it is that systemic problems call for systemic solutions, though perhaps not clearly articulated.
