    So tiny remotely controlled (or even AI?) nano bots will enter your blood stream and intereact with neurons in your brain. Does this mean that you could control certain parts of the brain potentially turning that human into your own robot? I find this somewhat alarming.

    Maybe in reference to the infamous BLUE SCREEN OF DEATH? Just an idea.

  6. vitamin supplyments on User Interface and Carpal Tunnel - Tech Solutions? · · Score: 1

    I know this reply is a little late, but I'm a musician and spend lots of time on computers (8 hours a day or more.) I developed symptoms like this at a fairly early age. What causes carpel tunnel is a fluid buildup that puts pressure on the median nerve in the wrist. When you start getting periodic numbness and tingling sensations in your hand/fingertips you're in trouble, and either need to seriously lay off or start some sort of treatment. If untreated it can develope to be pretty debilitating making your hand(s) virtually useless. Susceptibility to carpel tunnnel is usually genetic too, so if you're parents had it you have a better chance of getting it. Mine got pretty bad to the point that I couldn't play music or even type. I looked into surgery, but the recovery time of one year wasn't very appealig so I explored other options. One thing that kept comming up was B6. One of the things vitamin B6 supposedly does is help the body with fluid distribution so in theory in the right dose it should eliminate the fluid buildup causing your carpel tunnel symptoms. I started taking it and my symptoms fully receded. You might want to check it out.
