Pretty impressed with #hovergym (a lot of weight training options in a very small space) #CES2023

#Samsung's contribution to accessibility: Relumino Mode on TVs with specific image enhancements designed for people with low vision. #CES2023

#HARMON ReadyCare for driver safety: As I get it from a quick snapshot, your smart watch tells your car when you are about to lose it and your car tries to calm you down by changing temp, lighting, or music volume. #Samsung #CES2023

Lots of talk at #CES2023 about sustainability, recycling, and reducing plastics in oceans, but first related product comes from #Samsung -- a washing machine that reduces release of microplastics in wastewater by a claimed 54 percent, developed with @patagonia

Reducing the number of devices hanging around is a good thing, but a merger of electric razor and toothbrush? @panasonic #CES2023

@Apple said to be testing color epaper displays from @EInk for #iPhone. Will E-Ink's two-decade-long campaign to develop full-color e-paper finally hit the big time? https://t.co/8hiK6YfjbU

Augmented reality in a contact lens is one of those things you probably have to see to believe. Or you could just take my word for it. https://t.co/3hDBrAyXMq #AR #AugmentedReality #MojoLens @IEEESpectrum

@VerizonCEO After 26 calls to cust serv plus chats that go in circles, my 90-year-old aunt, a Verizon retiree, still can't call me on her landline because her (US only) long distance order is stuck in the system. You can do better.

[Tekla Perry @TeklaPerry]

@VZWSupport This is not a question for Verizon Wireless or Technical Support, this is a question for @verizonCEO

[Tekla Perry @TeklaPerry]

@Verizon How come a 90 year old Verizon retiree (45 years of employment) can't get decent customer service? All she needs is long distance on her landline. So far, we have made 26 calls to customer service (plus chats and emails), and y'all can't seem to get it to happen.

A particularly interesting article since I kind of know the author

[Journal of Trauma and Acute Care Surgery @JTraumAcuteSurg]

With differing practices on retrieving bullet fragments, Nee et al nicely demonstrates the complications of these fragments and the necessity for further studies on toxicity. What cases have you encountered where you had to retrieve the bullet?
